John Maxwell shares a story to explain his Rule of 5.
Suppose you go to a tree with an axe and swing at the tree 5 times. Then the next day you do it again and you keep hitting the tree with the axe 5 times each day, what will happen? The tree will fall. If it’s a big tree it could take 5 years, if it's a small tree it could take a year. The size of the tree will determine how long it will take to fall.
The RULE OF 5
WHAT
- Is your goal in life?
- Is your purpose?
- Do you want to accomplish?
- Do you want to knock down?
What’s your axe? What are your tools? If you do it 5 times a day you will be highly successful.
John Maxwell has written 73 books and made $22 million from doing so by using the RULE OF 5.
5 things John does every day that allowed him to write that many books.
Every day John:
- Reads
- Files
- Thinks
- Ask Questions
- Writes
Repeat every day - you can do it in whatever order as long as you do it every day, 7 days a week, no matter what.
The trick for me was to understand very clearly you don’t need to do it all day, or hours a day. The key is to do a little bit every day. It could be an hour a day as long as it is every day.
John Maxwell is among the authors I admire. I assist my clients in developing their grand vision, goals, and game plan for success in building my business.
I build my business and assist my clients in creating their BIG Vision, Goals, and Game Plan to be successful. I realized years ago when I first started my business that without a clear vision, big goals, a game plan, and working it every day you will not reach the success you desire.
My Question To You Is:
What is your big goal, and what 5 things are you going to do every day to make it a reality?
