Hey, have you ever had
an idea that you thought would be great – help someone else, do
something to make your life better, or spruce up an item of clothing
for example? Why didn't you do it? You can try and blame it on all
sorts of things from lack of money to lack of time; but the crux of
it is lack of action!
You have always been in
control of your own future, but maybe just need some guidance or
encouragement. Let today be the day that you decide to create a new
future by creating a new you.
Don't look to the past
– it's behind you and you're not going that way. Your future starts
now, so grab it with both hands and take action.
If you have a choice to
do nothing or do something, always do something. By doing something,
you are able to understand the results of your decision – if the
results are good, you can consider why to enable you to make similar
good decisions in the future. If the results are not so good, you can
still make adjustments to improve the results – and you're building
understanding of why the decision did not provide the results desired
so that you can avoid repeating in the future...
So, where you have
decided to take action today:
- Set a concrete, realistic goal.
- Identify the steps you must complete to achieve that goal.
- Follow those steps – TAKE ACTION!
Try the following
exercise to help you see the reward associated with achieving goals:
Contact at least one
person who has made a difference in your life and let them know how
much you appreciated their actions. This will result in a win win
situation for you and the person you've reached out to.
Write down the names of
each person you contact and how they made a difference in your life.
Remember how it makes you feel to share your gratitude with them –
remember how it make you feel by taking action on this small goal.
How good will it feel to create larger goals and achieve them?
“You have to think
anyway, so why not think big?” Donald Trump
