I have a great strategy that I want to share with you. One of the reasons that I was able to grow my small business so quickly and successfully is a little secret called the Power of 5.

When I first started my business, I made a promise to myself that every single day, I would engage in at least five important activities that would move my business forward.

What I found was amazing! First of all, it forced me, right off the bat to identify the activities that moved my business forward and the activities that did not. For instance, rearranging the files on my computer doesn’t move my business forward but, writing a press release does. Searching through all the new and cool applications on Facebook does not move my business forward, while sending out Facebook friend requests does.

In addition, the number five seems to be a magical number as well. While some of my activities take a few minutes and others a couple of hours, if I always engage in at least five important business activities every single day, my business continues to flourish!

I urge you to try the same technique. I think that you will be amazed at the results!
