Chain Reaction

Application in your life:

  • You have probably heard of the domino effect. The effect a single domino has is preposterous. It can knock over another domino double its size. If you start with a regular domino and it knocks over another domino double its size by the thirtieth multiplier it would have the ability to knock over the Eiffel Tower.
  • Don't despise the day of small beginnings. Every decision we make has a domino effect way beyond our ability to predit or control.
  • Until you selfishly invest yourself in someone else's dream, you aren't ready for your own.

Biggest Takeaway:

  • Every decision we make, every risk we take, has a chain reaction. And those chain reactions set off a thousand chain reactions we aren't even aware of. You never know who you may influence, but remember that everything you say, think or do will greatly influence someone somewhere.

Quotes:

  1. An inheritance is what you leave for someone. A legacy is what you leave in someone.
  2. They are not dead who live in the lives they leave behind. In those whom they have blessed, they live a life again.

If we search deeply enough within ourselves-beyond the scripting, beyond the learned attitudes and behaviors- the real validation of Win/Win, as well as every other correct principle, is in our lives.  Relationshi...
