“As you all know first prize is a Cadillac El Dorado. Anyone wanna see second prize? Second prize is a set of steak knives. Third prize is you’re fired.” ~ Blake (Glengarry Glen Ross)
Damn good movie that.
Listen, competition is good.
Competition in business is good.
Competition in your industry is good.
But, you know what? The best form of competition is when you are competing against…
… YOURSELF!
Yup.
Each day get up and try and outdo, outshine, and outperform what you did yesterday.
Then again, there’s always sleeping in.
Your friend,

P.S. One way to continually improve is to continually upgrade your thinking. You know, there’s a name for business owners who do that. They’re called successful.
P.S.S. Attention Inner Circle members: Wanna peek at what’s inside December’s issue? Of course you do. Here’s just a tiny sample of the sparkling gems that lay patiently inside:
*The #1 fear of ALL people. (And no, it’s not public speaking, death, snakes, heights, clowns, or any other thing you’re probably thinking of. Nope. This thing is hardly ever talked about, but I bet you’ll agree once you read what this is. It’s almost obvious. – page 3
*What 2020 has taught me about commodity products. (If you sell a commodity product, you’ll want to read page 3 carefully. There’s an insight there that can help you with your advertising, and… you can bet your boots that all your competitors are clueless about this.)
*A mini crash course in Catholicism. (What’s this got to do with sales and marketing? More than you’d think. Much more! Get the full scoop on page 4)
*A”sly” buying motive husbands never want their wives to know. Page 4 reveals an almost subconscious motivation behind many husbands’ purchases. (Once you understand this primal desire that every man on the planet has, you can potentially skyrocket your sales conversions by crafting sales pitches that hit on this little-talked-about driving force. That said, it must be addressed with much skill and finesse.)
Final words:
If you’re considering joining my Inner Circle, good. But that’s not gonna help you one bit now, is it? You know, you’re just like me. I’ve been considering giving up the booze and joining a gym for about three years. It hasn’t done me much good. It’s a real pity. My intentions are so good, so pure, and so righteous.
But, for you action takers, you can do your due diligence here:
