Hello everyone! Today I would like to share another great chapter in Grant Cardone's book "The 10x Rule." This is one of the most powerful book's I have ever read. Did you know that the more action you take, the better your chances are of getting a break? It's true! Keep reading and get ready to change and get better in only 5 minutes! That's how long it will take for you to finish reading this! Enjoy!
1. DO NOTHING
2. RETREAT
3. TAKE NORMAL LEVELS OF ACTION
4. TAKE MASSIVE ACTION
FIRST DEGREE "DO NOTHING"
This is exactly what it sounds like. Signs of doing nothing include exhibiting boredom, lethargy, complacency, and lack of purpose. People in this group will find themselves spending their time and energy justifying their situations, which requires as much work as the other actions.
SECOND DEGREE "RETREAT"
These are people who take actions in reverse. The retreater personifies the "fear of success" phenomenon. He or she has experienced results that were not fruitful and has therefore decided to avoid taking further actions that might prompt this to occur again. Like doing nothing, retreating is an action that requires effort and hard work.
THIRD DEGREE "TAKE NORMAL LEVELS OF ACTION"
The people who take normal levels of action are probably the most prevalent in our society today. This group appears to be taking necessary amounts of action on the surface, to appear normal. This level of action creates the middle class and is actually the most dangerous. They take just enough action to appear normal however, they never do create real success.
FOURTH DEGREE "MASSIVE ACTION"
Massive action is the most natural state of action there is for all of us. A perfect example is children. They are always in a natural state of constant action. When you are taking massive action, you aren't thinking in terms of how many hours you work. When you start operating at the fourth degree of action, your mind-set will shift and so will your results!
This is very simple but true wisdom! Every day I am getting better because of this book and what I am learning from it. I am not perfect, and I have areas that need work, but I am trending in the right direction!
Yours in super, duper, motivational health!
