Over the next seven days what I would encourage people to do is the first thing is to stop and think about what you’re doing and why you’re doing it. And then second to that is to think to yourself are you working by yourself or are you working as a team and if you’re working by yourself if you find yourself alone in the wilderness out in the marketplace then think about how you can get a team because I think those things are are what make a success. And if you don’t know how to get a team those things are what to focus on. And then the final thing is very simple. Now what we talked about earlier which is you know what are you putting into your mind. So really you know if you are not thinking about business as a whole and what you’re putting into your mind then those are the things to think about. So I think those are the three things I would do for the next seven days.
