Daily Inspiration From The Great Babe Ruth

Daily Inspiration 8/12/19

Home Run

 (04:41)
But before I go, I want to give you a little bit of inspiration is as well, I like  to close out with something that's going to keep you empowered for the rest of the day. It's only Monday for some of you. So, your week just started. Somebody's probably already pissed you off by the water cooler or by the bathroom, but I want you to stay inspired and move forward and kind of put that stuff behind you. Let it roll off your back. Be a solution person. Don't, don't, don't deal with the problems. Don't let them take you down and take you off the game. But that's not my inspiration. So, my inspiration for the day is this. Every strike brings me closer to my next home run. That was said by Babe Ruth and he was right.

You don't think about the little things that you do. I'm telling you, I'm very impatient and when things seems like they're taking a long time, I have to be reminded that every little thing I do is building up towards what I'm trying to accomplish. So, every strike, every step that you take, every time you exercise early, every time you meditate it’s getting you closer to what you're trying to achieve. I know sometimes it looks like it's taking too long. I know. I feel you on that. Let me tell you, I deal with it every day, but every step you take in the right direction is a step closer to your goals. That's really what Babe Ruth was saying. It was baseball. So, every strike he took put him closer to a home run. Every you step you take is on the path towards your journey, it  gets you a little bit closer and I know it seems like it's taking forever.

Trust me when I tell you if anybody knows, I do, but just know that it's the little thing. It's like the compound effect by Darren Hardy. It's like the little things that you do, they add up and they add up and one day it looks like you exploded. Right? I don't know what it is you're trying to accomplish, but just know that you stay on the path no matter how hard, no matter how long it looks, you know, don't matter if it looks like you're not getting anywhere you are, you are making progress. Every time you do something towards that goal, whatever it is, you're trying to buy a house. Every time you pay off a credit card, that's a step in the right direction towards buying your house. You're trying to buy a new car, so you're trying to get that down payment. Every time you save a dollar, that's a dollar towards a down payment of that car.

If you're trying to start this business, every time you read a book about how to start a business, you're a step closer to starting a business. You're trying to grow your business. Every time you watch a marketing video, you’re a step closer to growing your business. Whatever it is you're trying to do. Even, if you're trying to get healthy, every time you get up and exercise, you're a step closer to trying to lose weight. You know, every time you say, you know what, I'm not gonna eat that donut and let me tell you, I know, I know. I know. These are the things I'm telling you right now are things that I know cause it's always a journey. Here's the thing, you got to keep doing those small things.  You gotta keep taking those steps. you gotta keep taking those swings.

(07:25)
Your home run is coming. Trust me when I tell you, but you got to stay on the path. You got to stay at the bat. You gotta keep swinging. So ,listen, that's all I got for you today. Thank you so much for listening. You could've been anywhere in the world, but you spent the last hour and nine minutes with me and I appreciate you so much. I see my numbers growing. I'm still, I'm still trying to get to that million subscribers, a million download or a combination of both. But I see the numbers growing. When I looked at my statistics, I know that you guys are sharing the show and I really, really appreciate that. That's, that's a big thing.
