Have you ever heard this story? It is told in the book “Three Feet from Gold: Turn your Obstacles into Opportunities”, based on the teachings of the American author Napoleon Hill.

Read this story and learn why you should never give up!

The story “Three feet from gold” talks about a gold miner who worked hard for months without having any luck. So one day, he decided to quit and sell the mine to another person. Then, that person started working and after mining a distance of three feet... He found a large amount of gold and became a billionaire.

What does this story teach us?

When we start something new, we are thrilled: we want to go for gold! But then, we work for some time and when results don't come fast, we feel down. Quite a disappointment, isn't it? Sure. But you have to know that success only comes after trying over and over again.

When Thomas A. Edison finally got the light bulb to work, he thought of all the failures he made along the way and said: “I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work.”

How to avoid the thought of giving up?

“A dream is just a dream until it is written down. Only then does it become a goal.”

Think of all the dreams you want to fulfill with the business and write them down in an action plan. Determine how many potential clients you will contact every day, how much you want to earn every month, how many business presentations you will attend and organize, etc.

Think of all the people who have achieved success

They will be your example to follow. They have failed more times than anyone and yet, you can see them with their heads held high because, despite everything, they pursued their goals with perseverance.

“A quitter never wins and a winner never quits.”

Rely on your team

“Collaboration is essential to create miracles.”

They are a great reason not to give up. People who trust you to get results and people who invited and welcomed you with open arms! A united team is a great motivation to keep moving forward and achieve a roaring success!

That is why... “Decide to live life to the fullest. You may be three feet from gold!”
