=============
A father not far from passing away offers his two sons a
choice. He say that they can either choose $0.01 or
$1,000,000 to do as they wish with after his life has ended.
Once they make the choice it’s final. If they chose to take
the $0.01 the ailing father left instructions with his
banker to double that penny every day for the next month. If
they chose the $1,000,000.00 it was theirs to do with as
they pleased.
They were given a night to choose. One son stayed up all
night debating his choices while the other new right off
which choice to make. The morning came and both had made a
decision and were ready for their father.
The son who had lost sleep over the choice by morning time
had found new inspiration and had a plan by the time the
daylight came around, in fact, by the time he saw his father
he was smiling from ear to ear as he found his resolve so
complete for his course of action.
Their father asked his boys . . . “What do you choose?”
The one son who had devised a plan quickly chose to take the
one million dollars and quickly got to work on setting it
into action. He called the top financial analyst in the
country and hired them at any cost to make his money grow.
They spent a week devising the perfect plan and once finished
presented it to the son who had chosen the one million
dollars and he approved.
Next, they quickly got to work making his nest egg grow.
Meanwhile the other son chose the other route, one cent
which doubled on a daily basis.
Two weeks later the two sons met.
The first son had his million and the second had about
$600+.
Both were excited, but once the first son found out that his
brother had chosen to take the $0.01 option he pleaded with
him to go to his father and beg him to reconsider his
foolish decision. He didn’t want to see his brother with
only $600 to live on once his father passed.
The second son refused.
29 days in, the first son who had chosen the one million
dollar option was up to one and half million playing the
stock market. All seemed well, but . . .
His financial planners fees were just over half a million
dollars, so actually he was a little in the red.
Meanwhile his brother was up to 2.5 million dollars.
The final 3 days passed quickly.
The first son, although he had not done bad, was still at
less then a million dollars do to fees and expenses while
his brother had understood something that he hadn’t. His
brother’s final net worth from starting with just $0.01 was
now over ten million dollars.
His brother had understood the power of the eighth wonder of
the world.
Compound interest . . .
And flourished for it.
The lesson here is two fold.
1. In your network marketing business you leverage this
powerful principle. You start as one and over time you grow
exponentially. Half way through you may feel like you’re not
as far along as you would think, but believe me you’re well
on your way and you’ll arrive at your financial goals far
faster than you expect as long as you understand the rule.
2. This principle goes deeper than just your business, it
has to do with ever success or failure you create in your
life. Those results are compounded result of the little
things you do every single day be they good or bad. Eating
McDonalds today won’t make you any less or more healthy than
eating a salad, but look a year later and you’ll surely see
the compounded effects of each path. One to greater health
one small decision at a time and one to bad health one small
decision at a time.
It really is the small things that make the big differences
in the long run. Don’t loose site of it in your life or in
your business.
To the top,
