This is going to be a good one.
Hey welcome back to The Bootstrap Boutique where beginners build businesses.
I am glad you're here because today I want to share something with you that I thought
was pretty freakin profound.
I was reading something on the internet, I don't remember what it was, but whatever it
was there was a quote in it that struck me as enough that I actually wrote it down in
my notebook and that is this: You can't make yourself successful, only other people can
make you succeed.
So, unattributed quote, source unknown, google, no help.
But if you think about it is so true.
What is the most important thing in business?
Sales.
Who buys your product?
Other people.
Other people make you successful.
If you want to be a speaker, who listens to you speak?
Other people.
Other people make you successful.
If you want to write a book, how do you get on the best sellers list?
By other people reading your book.
Other people make you successful.
This is why it is so important to invest in others, because I've said it so many times
you guys, you get out of life what you put in.
When you support people, they may not buy from you, they may not be your market, but
they will be your advocate.
They will go out and they will tell other people about about you, about your products
and those other people will buy from you.
I'd like for ya'll to do me a favor.
Think about somebody in your life that's helped you, that has lifted you up and tell them
"thank you."
You can send an email, it can be a phone call, you can write an actual note.
We're still allowed to do that.
But there is someone in your life that is helping to make you a success so go and tell
them thank you for being supportive and for being that person in your life.
You know what?
Do me another favor too.
Build someone else up.
Go to the craft fair and buy a handmade good.
That new kid that's fresh out of college at your company, take them out to lunch and see
if there is a way that you can mentor them.
Send an encouraging tweet to somebody that you think needs it, we build people up in
big and small ways and they all matter.
Because yes, other people will make you successful, but when you make other people successful,
you are making yourself a success also.
Short video this week but I hope it's given you a lot to think about.
Thumbs up on the video if you find it encouraging , leave me a comment down below and let me
know who you thank and who you are going to build up this week.
And I will talk to you next time.
Take care!
