0:00.0 | So one thing my mentor, Bill Mitchell, taught me growing up early, was I always thought that I could |
0:05.8 | just take some action and produce a result. And what he would say to me over and over again is |
0:10.8 | you may take that action and think you're going to get the result, but the truth is you have to take |
0:15.4 | a lot of action to finally get into some level of momentum before you actually experience what it is you truly want. |
0:22.8 | And he would say to me, he's like, Tom, I was raised on a farm in Michigan. |
0:25.7 | My mom would hand me a bucket and say, go outside to the well and bring in some water. |
0:31.1 | Now, first of all, could you even imagine that? |
0:33.0 | So you would say, I'd go outside and he would crank the well over and over and over and over and |
0:39.0 | water didn't come out immediately you couldn't just go to Starbucks and grab something he's |

0:48.3 | flow and he would say to me Tom you have to be willing to crank the well whether it's with your |

0:55.1 | whether it's with your prospecting |
0:56.3 | or your marketing or your business, |
0:57.7 | you can't just do this and get that. |
0:59.9 | It's always do this and this and this, |
1:02.7 | and every day you feel like quitting, |
1:05.1 | you keep cranking the well. |
1:06.9 | And that's how you get the real results in life. |
