What is the question you want an answer to?  Don’t ask the question that gives you the answer you want but gives you the response you need.  And be prepared to drill down to get specifics.  For the most part, our fellow business people are prepared to provide details when asked.

Thinking big requires us to think in general terms, use vague slogans, and avoid specific details.  No details are to be found anywhere in these big picture plans.
Although they will never admit it, many “big ideas” fail because they do not consider the small details of how the big plan will happen. This is why we need to think small.

Germany Kent, an American Hall of Fame media and communications professional, is quoted saying: “Relationships matter.  The roles people play in your life will influence you, so get serious about who you allow to affect you.  Nurture those relationships in your circle that foster success and happiness, and continuously position yourself among change agents and thought leaders.”

What Is the Hard Part?

The answer to this question is whatever the most important thing is right now. It is what is the very next step that must be taken right now to move you closer to your ultimate goal.
