The Time I Met A Prophet On The Beach

Weird, true story:

Not too long ago, I was at the beach and a man walked up to me.

He told me he was a prophet.

I was skeptical and I told him that. But he insisted that he had supernatural powers

So he took me down to the ocean. The sun was setting, and you could see its reflection on the ocean.

More...

The man told me to look at the reflection of the sun on the water, and to watch closely.

He started walking along the beach, then looked up at me and said, “see?” (he had that “I told you so” face on)

Frankly, I didn’t see, and I told him that. “See what?”

“The reflection of the sun follows me.”

But the man failed to realize that the reflection of the sun follows everyone when they walk along the beach. It’s all a perspective thing. It looks like the sun is only following you when you walk along the water. But it looks like that for everyone.

I immediately realized this, and told the man.

Now, pause for a moment. I was in a unique position to help the man. I knew something that he didn’t know. And if he listened to me, I could have helped him learn some important things about himself and the world.

But he didn’t buy it...

When I told him that he was mistaken about the sun, he kept on walking along the beach, and pointing at the sun’s reflection.

He insisted that it was following him, and him only. He thought I was making stuff up.

I walked away from that experience thinking about how important it is to get an outside perspective on things.

It’s too easy to get stuck in your own ideas. To think you’re a prophet. To think that your methods and tactics are always the best.

That applies to business just as much as anything.

And it’s dangerous, because you’ll stop growing, and so will your business. You’ll stop seeing your mistakes and how to fix them.

"4Minute Patdays" pairs you with a mentor, and surrounds you with a community of like-minded entrepreneurs. That way, you’re not doing business alone.

When you start making mistakes, you have people to help point them out. Absolutely critical, when you’re in charge of a business.

Of course, it’s kind of nice to think that you’re a prophet. That the sun follows you wherever you go. That you’re always right.

And if you want to think that, it’s up to you.

But if you want to grow as an internet marketer and an entrepreneur......
