- 🎙 Marvin Gaye and The Little Engine
NEW COLLAB IS ALL THE RAGE 🤝
There ain't no mountain high enough
Ain't no valley low enough
Ain't no river wide enough
To keep me from getting to you, babe.
And she thought of the good little boys and girls on the other side of the mountain who would not have any toys or good food to eat unless she helped.
THE LITTLE ENGINE THAT COULD DID đźš‚
I read this famed children’s story last night, and you came to mind.
If you're not familiar with the story, there was this train loaded with toys and food that needed to be delivered, but it had to cross a steep mountain. The engine suddenly stopped and needed a replacement to complete the journey.
All the larger train engines that came by turned down the job with various excuses, leaving the little engine who happened by as the last hope.
Although unsure, the small train engine chugged its way up the mountain while the bigger ones scoffed. Surprisingly, it saved the day by delivering the toys on time to the children on the other side.
The key to its success wasn't size or strength – it was a mix of optimism, a determined spirit, and the constant mantra of "I think I can, I think I can..."
But it was even more than that.
MOUNTAINS ARE OPPORTUNITIES 🧗‍♀️
Again …
“And she thought of the good little boys and girls on the other side of the mountain who would not have any toys or good food to eat unless she helped.”
That one, simple sentence packs all the punch that’s needed for us creators.
Helping potential customers and clients … the reason we began building a business and climbing the mountain in the first place.
Imagine changing that sentence to this:
“And she thought of the good people on the other side of the problem who would not have any solution unless she helped.”
Their mountain (problem) seems daunting. But because of your care and determination, help is on the way! #TheLittleEntrepreneurWhoCould
Keep climbing, friends! 🏔
