The 365 Commitment

Day 25 – Meet the Person that Will Change Your Life

This morning I was pondering things I could add to my list, and I really did not have any tasks that I could easily do today. I am at a business conference which would make that difficult!

However, I reminded myself of an important mindset someone taught me when I was younger. The concept is – when you wake up everyday realize that the person that that will have the most influential impact on your life – you have not met yet.

Now do not get technical on me. We all know that I have already met the most influential person (I married her!!). What I am referring to is an attitude! When I go out into the world (like this conference for example), I have now put on my list – “Meet the most influential person that will help me achieve the goals”.

Well guess what? That little bit of faith to write that commitment down might have worked! I got connected with someone that may really help me with a business challenge I am having!

So a good suggestion for you, think beyond the task list and write down some potentially life changing tasks – like meet new people!
