Don't Think Big--Think Bigger!

"As long as you're going to think anyway, you might as well THINK BIG!"
--Donald Trump

I'm sure you've heard of the great P.T. Barnum. One day his circus was to merge with another circus owned by a fellow named Bailey, becoming what is still known today as the Barnum & Bailey Circus.

When the contracts were signed, Bailey turned to Barnum and as they shook hands said, "Mr. Barnum, now we have the biggest circus in America."

"No, Mr. Bailey," said his new partner, "now we have the greatest show on earth."

And to this day, the Barnum & Bailey Circus is know as "The Greatest Show on Earth."

Stories convey secrets. Sometimes these secrets are tightly guarded secrets to success. When we hear the story of someone else's success, it might be just what we need to create our own success.

  1. Well, I guess that pretty much explains Trump's hair.
