Network Marketing - Three Feet From Gold

It is human nature for most people to quit or "take a break" right at the moment when we are

about to achieve the biggest breakthroughs of our lives.

One story stands out in my mind. There is a great story in of the best book of success ever

written. If you are familiar with the iconic success book "Think And Grow Rich", you might

remember the story in that book about Mr. Darby who gave up his quest for gold too soon,

during the California Gold Rush of long ago.

The story goes like this. For months upon months Mr. Darby went about prospecting for gold in

the hills. Somehow he just knew that he would strike gold.

Every-day he got up early in the morning and walked to the hills in search of his "fortune". He

dug and dug with his simple tools. He found some gold here and there. But never anything to

write home about.

The story goes that he finally gave up digging because he was convinced that he could not find

the "mother load" he was searching for.

Hearing this, another prospector (a junk man) came to him and offered to buy all his tools. Mr.

Darby agreed and sold all his tools for whatever money he could get for them.

The Junk Man then went on to hire a land surveyor, an engineer and geologist, all whom

combined their knowledge and went to work on the mine where Mr. Darby had been digging

without results.

It is told that upon studying the area and the mine, the men discovered that the first man had been

literally three feet from where the real gold deposit was. Literally 3 FEET! The poor prospector

who had given up was so close to the gold, he could reach out and touch it. But there was no way

he could know this because he gave up too soon, and he did not have the proper tools for the job.

When he heard about the discovery, the man could do nothing but wonder what might have been.

1. What about you? Are you "three feet from gold" and just don't know it?

2. Do you give up right before success shows up?

a. Giving up too soon could be costing you a fortune and your dreams.

b. You cannot fail as long you do not give up and you have the proper tools and

training.

3. Can you relate to this story? How many times have you been working away at something

and it seems like you are getting nowhere? Trust me, you are getting somewhere. You are

digging your ditches expecting it to rain.
