It's kind of hard to argue with success, isn't it? Still there are lots of people who will call renowned sales and marketing consultant Chet Holmes a "sell-out" and someone who is bad for martial arts.
I mean, how dare he - making lots of money from "our" sacred art! A true artist must be starving, right? Shall we say it together everyone: Just a little envious? You know, just a wee bit ...?
Me, I say good for him, and I like to view this as another source of inspiration!
Story:
In his mid-twenties, a virtually unknown young entrepreneur successfully convinced the top executives at Salomon Brothers to pay him $900 per hour to teach them karate at his private dojo in Times Square, New York City.
Now over two decades later, Chet Holmes, is recognized as one of America's top sales and marketing consultants, and has integrated his karate-style discipline to increase sales and productivity at over 50 Fortune 500 companies.
"Becoming a master," says Chet, "is not about doing 4,000 different things, it's about doing 12 things 4,000 times each." And this is how he trains sales teams, trains executives, and builds businesses.
