Grains of sand magnified 250x.
Just as all the tiny grains of sand are what make up the great big beautiful beach, little things are the big thing in our lives.
If you read my book, you’ll see that there wasn’t one specific move or deal I made in my career that was a game-changer. It was all the little things that I did to develop relationships with people, that built up over the years, and put me in a position to be successful.
We have a tendency to overuse the word big:
“It’s no big deal – I don’t need to call that person back.”
“It’s no big deal – I don’t need to get the tracking number on that gift I sent, to make sure they got it.”
“It’s no big deal – I don’t have to call them to make sure they got home okay after that long flight.”
“It’s no big deal – I don’t need to send a handwritten note; I can email them.”
“It’s no big deal – I don’t need to drop by in person to make a condolence call. I can email.”
Well, lemme tell you something: it is a big deal!
Because when you add up all these little things, these little ways of being human to people, you get people who don’t forget you, who want to work with you, and provide opportunities for you, and in the end, you can do some big things together.
Are you taking care of the “little” things?
Hello everyone, I am from Wembley, Britain. I want to write this testimony to tell others and thank Dr. Odunga for what he has done for me. The first 12 years of my marriage I had 5 miscarriages and I was called all sorts of names by my mother-in-law and this made my marriage life very hectic and a burden of sorrow. I contacted Dr. Odunga for help and I will say that he is a very strong and honest man and he indeed helped me solve my problem. I saw his email in a testimony and I contacted him, little did I know it would be the end of all my problems. After 2 days of contact, I received a fertility herb and he told me to use it. The herb worked and my husband even loved me more and bought me expensive things. One afternoon, I went to a nearby hospital and came back home with the positive result of my pregnancy and after 9 months I gave birth to a baby boy. Ever since I contacted Dr. Odunga, my story has been different. I have 3 children at present and I am very happy in my marriage. Please, contact him at odungaspelltemple@gmail.com OR Whats App him +2348167159012 to help you too
