Marketing wisdom from a fortune cookie
Quick! Look away for a moment from our train-wreck economy. Enough doom and gloom, analysis and paralysis.
Here’s a bright spot, brought to you by my fortune cookie from lunch yesterday: “The simplest answer is to act.”
I have to congratulate the writer, because the statement is brilliant in its clarity.
Do nothing… and you can expect nothing.
On the other hand, take a step toward your goals and whatever the outcome, you still make progress. Either you learn and adjust your course or you gain ground. Whew, I needed that!

Bonnie,
I couldn’t agree with you more. In fact, I have several posts on my blog that deliver the same point.
People, myself included, can easily be paralyzed by overwhelm at the prospect of a big undertaking. Identifying the first 3 steps needed for that undertaking and simply taking the first step is a great solution.
