George C. Scott as General Patton
As I was building my speaking business, my mentor would always tell me. “Ruben, done is better than perfect. Do something every day. Market yourself every day. Throw mud on the wall and we can always clean up the mess later.”
Most people wait until everything is perfect before taking action. Well… everything will NEVER be perfect. If you wait for perfection, you get paralysis by analysis. And NOTHING happens.
General Patton said, “A good plan violently executed now, is better than a perfect plan next week.”
Tony Robbins says “Success requires massive action. Today.”
Marketing is critical in any business. In the speaking business, marketing is 95% of the business. Delivering the speech is simply delivering the product.
Marketing is HUGE and must be done every day, as Seth Godin explains in his post Make Something Happen.
