Are you Drafting?

In the May 2011 edition of SUCCESS magazine, Mel Robbins did a great article called “The Power of Drafting.”

I wanted to summarize pieces of it as it’s an awesome example of what we can do in Network Marketing:

Cyclists and car racers do it all the time. When you move at high speed, you produce a wake of air behind you. If you get behind a cyclist, a truck or your mentor, the wake pushes you forward. Scientists have proven that when you draft, you exert 30 percent less effort than the person you are tailing. Same is true in life and in our business. If you know you are following behind someone else who’s blazing the trail and creating a wake for you, it will be easier!

For ANYTHING you want to do, simply identify two people in the world who are doing or have done what you would like to do, then devote yourself to learning as much as you can about them and how they got to where they are. Just step wherever they have stepped, and you will exert 30 percent less emotional effort in reaching your goals!
