John C. Maxwell Quote

You don’t win an Olympic gold medal with a few weeks of intensive training, says (Seth) Godin. There’s no such thing as an overnight opera sensation. Great law firms or design companies don’t spring up overnight…every great company, every great brand, and every great career has been built in exactly the same way: bit by bit, step by step, little by little. There is no magic solution to success.
