Did You Know:
 From: Lee Schearer,
To: My Fellow Chapel Hill Leads Group Members
"The Seven Laws of Success - Law 4 - Drive"
While cruising the Internet I once again became acquainted with the articles entitled The Seven Laws of Success [Armstrong, Herbert. The Seven Laws of Success. Philadelphia: Church of God, 2013]. In the past I have informed our members of these "Laws" in an effort to help you recognize the fact that, as a business owner and entrepreneur, success in business does not just happen. Even if you have the capital funding there is no guarantee that your business will achieve your expectations. The failure rate of a start-up small business is too evident within our respective communities.
Those of us who have been in business for some time have come to realize that in order to achieve reasonable success we had to establish a "plan of action". In an effort to help our members with this endeavor I have submitted numerous messages from several sources. This week I submit "Law #4". The fourth law is DRIVE!
You cannot achieve true business success without the drive, not only to want success, but also the internal drive to fight your way through adversity, to keep focused on the goal and to recognize and learn from others how to put that drive to work in order to achieve your goals.
One way to establish that drive is to educate yourself by reading publications such as Seven Laws of Success,. Herbert W. Armstrong - COG writer. Another way is to attend the Chapel Hill Leads Group where you will meet successful small business owners who have harnessed the drive in order to achieve business success. Some of our members have been in business well over 40 years. I encourage you to check out our group at www.chapelhillleads.com.
I also invite you to join me this Wednesday morning at the Chapel Hill Leads Group and to witness why we are the oldest business referral group in the region. Remember to bring a smile on your face, a song on your mind and an attitude of gratitude for the life that you live and the opportunities available to all of us in the great country, America.
Respectfully,
Lee Schearer

Attention CHLG Members - The Chapel Hill Leads Group's goal is to raise 100+ boxes of cereal a month. If everyone brought one box of cereal to two meetings this month, the Chapel Hill Leads Group would easily exceed the 100 boxes of cereal goal.
