HOUR 113: The Creative Success Show with Tanner Gers, Episode 23: The Dream Business Coach Jim Palmer.
I met Jim Palmer in Nashville in 2013 at the Top Practices Summit and he’s a very wise man. His latest book, DECIDE: The Ultimate Success Trigger is discussed throughout this podcast.
Jim is often asked, ‘when’s the best time to start something new’, and his answer was simple. Right NOW is the best time to get started.
This leads me onto my takeaway points:.
- If you start something right now, even without all the necessary knowledge or skills, you will get better over time. If you want to write a book, just start. Yes, you may make a few grammatical errors, but that’s part of learning the craft. If you’re uncomfortable in front of a video camera, you’ll only improve by getting in front of the camera.
Jim gave a really good example about learning how to reverse his big twin engine boat properly, without making a fool of himself. He read books, watched Youtube videos, etc, but it wasn’t until he got the boat in the water and actually did it, that he could master this new skill.
- Repetition is the key. If you do something enough times, you can only improve, but first you have to get started. If you wait until everything is perfect…it never will be.
- You have to DECIDE you really want something, and then you have to pull the trigger and get started. . No successful person ever achieved greatness without first making the decision they wanted it.
