This post may seem a little off topic, but keep with me.
I've been driving now for 18 years. Not once have I been pulled over for speeding. Is that because I don't speed? No, I speed all the time. Is it because I'm lucky? Probably not. Do I simply outrun the fuzz in my Saturn? Heck no!
Then how have I eluded the police for so long? The answer relates not only to avoiding the cops, but also to marketing, business, and life. Here is the three step process that I used to solve this problem.
- Identify what the problem is
- Find a qualified individual who has solved this problem
- Do what they do
Sounds simple because it is. Back in high school I went up to and asked a local cop, "How do I avoid getting pulled over?"
He said, "It is simple, never be the fastest driver in sight."
So that's what I did for the last 17 years. I always drive slower than somebody I can see. Whether I'm driving 26, 58, or 72mph, there is always someone in my sights driving faster. Using this simple system, that problem has been solved, I don't have to worry or think about getting pulled over ever again.
Have a problem in marketing, business, or life? Guess what, somebody else has had this problem, solved it, and written the solution down. All you have to do is copy what they did. It is that simple.
