How lincoln got his beard!
Of the 45 presidents in our nations history,three of them are most easily recognized.They are Lincoln,Kennedy,and Barack Obama.Lincoln is known for his scraggy beard ,but it was never so :in fact when he was running the first time he was an unknown and trailing in the polls with not much chance of winning.
Then he got a letter from an equally unknown person and that turned his fortunes around and led him to victory.
An 11 year old school girl from Illinois wrote to him to tell him that he should wear a beard, because American women love to see their husbands wear beards and if he wore one all the women would vote for him.Lincoln took her advice and the rest is history.One small change brought not only victory but also fame along with it.
We are in a business that some times require change and a little bit of that would go a long way to make us more Successful.
At the beginning of this year most us pledged that we would make those changes but after two months we have done very little to enact those changes.Whats more like Lincoln ,they are small changes and we know that if we take action they would bring us positive results.
Lincoln could have kept his clean face and lost the presidency ,but he choose to take what looked like a silly advice and became famous. You can stay in your comfort zone and loose the chance to build a million dollar business.The choice is yours.
