SELLEST OSAST
Just do one more… Everything
I just listened to Ed Mylett’s book The Power of One More and it inspired me to do one more every day towards being great.
In everything you do in life, if you do just one more you can be great. No one knows at what exact point the greats have gone from just good to amazing but there was a point, and all it took was one more time.
In selection for special forces, it’s going just one more leg of the race, one more day of selection, or just one more time doing the drill.
In Marine Corps Boot Camp it was just one more past your limit; One more push-up, one more pull-up, one more mile, or one more time around the drill field. One day during Boot Camp the Drill Instructor gave me the advice to not even make it one more day just make it one more meal. Since we were fed three times a day it was just make it a little further, or just one more.
When I got out of Boot Camp and to the Fleet Marine Force we measured days with one more, just two more days and a wake-up. It was a way for us to tell each other just one more.
Now in real life, it is just one more thing
In my sales job, it is just one more call sales call
In my marriage, it is just one more nice word to my wife
With my kid, it is one more moment together.
A life of greatness can be built on just one more.
If you do one more of whatever it is you want to succeed, you will eventually become great.
No doubt, it takes time to do just one more. And it takes time and work to b e great at anything. But this one more all the time compounds and before you know it, you will be great.
Do one more act of kindness
One more thing to get in shape
One more thing at work
Just one more to become great.
It all starts with you.
Learn more by reading the book The Power of One More.
