A Billionaire's Secret To Success

He wears many hats.. and amazingly successful at all of them.. a businessman.. an entrepreneur.. a billionaire.. a mayor.. a politician.. a social activist.. a philanthropist..

You may have heard of him. His name is Michael Bloomberg. Here is his secret to success:

An excerpt from his book, "Bloomberg by Bloomberg"..

"We made mistakes, of course. Most of them were omissions we didn't think of when we initially wrote the software. We fixed them by doing it over and over, again and again. We do the same today. While our competitors are still sucking their thumbs trying to make the design perfect, we're already on prototype version No. 5. By the time our rivals are ready with wires and screws, we are on version No. 10. It gets back to planning versus acting. We act from day one; others plan how to plan - for months."

So, ACT FIRST!! ACT FIRST!! ACT FIRST!! and plan as you go along the way..

So true so true!

Act first! We never know until we act. After taking action then solve the problems along the way. Cos maybe what we foresee may not happen after all, and a new set of challenges may pose themselves which we wouldn't have known if we didn't act!
