Step on to the Blue Slide . .

Last Sunday was hot and beautiful in San Diego.

My wife, kids and I decided to go swimming to cool off.

We don’t have a pool and we wanted to go to a nice place for the
afternoon.

I don’t know about you, but where we live, there are community
pools all over San Diego County.

So I hopped on line, did a search for county pools and recreation
and I found a list of great pools.

One of the nicer pools that caught my attention was in Del Mar,
California.

The cost was only $12 for all of us to get in.

And let me tell you something.

This pool was awsome!

I’ve never seen a city pool as magnificent as this.

This city pool rivals some of the nicer resorts here in San Diego.

The setting was beautiful.

There were tons of lifeguards really watching the kids.

The water was crystal blue in color.

The pool was heated.

But the main reason we went to this pool and not the others was
because it had two huge water slides.

One of slide was a green slide.
( the slow and safe slide )

And one slide was a blue slide.
( The fast and exciting slide )

My six-year-old wanted to go on the slides as soon as we got
there.

He first went on the green slide.

Not a problem.

He loved it.

He did it three more times.

Every time he went down the green slide, I would go down the blue
slide.

We would race.

I would always win.
( Even when I let him go first )

That’s how fast the blue slide is.

The blue slide shoots you down like a rocket.

The blue slide has more twists and turns.

The green slide is safe and predictable.

Just like a comfortable old shoe.

You know what your going to get each time you go down.

I asked Alan if he was ready for the blue slide.

he said, “no, I’ll just go on the green.”

I said, “come on, you’ve got to try the blue slide. The blue slide
is awesome, you’ll love it.”

He said “I’m going to do the blue slide when I’m nine”.
( Three years from now )

So, I told him to ask this kid in front of us if the blue side is
fun? ( Social Proof always helps a sale )

The kid in front said .. “yeah, it’s fast, it’s fun”.

Then Alan looked at me and said..

“Dad, I’ll go on the blue slide, but on one condition… as long as
you catch me at the bottom.

Then, I realized how I had it all wrong.

I thought Alan was afraid to go on the slide.

I thought he was afraid of the journey down.

But it wasn’t that at all.

He wanted someone to catch him at the bottom.
 
I told him that I’ll be there for you at the bottom of the slide.

And I went down the blue slide and I caught him at the bottom.

And he was not afraid of the blue slide any more.

And I got to thinking.

I thought about how this green slide blue slide story is a metaphor
for marketing students who want to be Marketing Consultants.

Many want to take the blue slide but only take the green.

They listen to the free recordings on my site.

They try to piece the system together from here and there.

But they never really step ON TO.. the blue slide.

I believe that people are not afraid of taking the journey of being
an HMA Marketing Consultant.

No..

It’s not that at all.

They’re afraid of failing.

Afraid of what their wife will say.

Afraid of what their co-workers and friends with think.

They’re afraid that people will laugh at them.

Afraid that no one will be there to catch them if they fail.

I want to let you know that if you’re considering marketing
consulting as a part time of full time endeavor, that I’m in your
corner.
