We can come up with most reasonable sounding excuses for sitting there. Of course, we don't call them excuses because that would make us look like we're gold bricking. We call them rational prudence, or some other stupid Froggy line, so that everyone will think we are so intelligent.
A Force You Better Reckon With!
Not doing things we need to do habitually creates a strong pattern of procrastination. It causes people to miss planes, be late for work, and sometimes can cause very serious catastrophes in our lives. Ideas can be forgotten and opportunities lost that could change our lives for better.
History has recorded great battles that were lost because someone hesitated when time had come to take a desirable action. I talk to people all time and common theme of habits that most people would like to eliminate is procrastination.
And my favorite secret that I tell all of them is in title of this article. Use affirmation "Do it Now" and go full steam ahead. Just be sure you are going for gold and not going off half-cocked.
This Is As Good As It Gets!
When things begin getting done in your life you will sense a re-invigorating of your attitude. It will cause circumstances to go from negative to positive. It will cause darkest of nights your have ever spent to become a new and pleasant day.
Notice how this young man took a terrible dark night and turned it into a beautiful day. Jorgen was a young man from Denmark who wanted to visit America. He had saved and made trip to Washington DC. All money he had was in cash and after he checked into his hotel room he noticed his wallet was missing.
Thousands of miles from his home country and not having any family or close friends here he had no way of getting more money. His hotel was pre-paid and he still had his plane ticket home.
So, those two items were not a concern. He had two choices. One he could be happy; other, he could be miserable. He couldn't make his wallet fall out of heaven so only thing he could do is tell himself "it's time to be happy". And, this he did.
He said I'm same person I was yesterday before I lost my wallet; I'm going to be same person tomorrow. I was happy yesterday, I will be happy today. That was Jorgen's affirmation. He refused to spend his time being unhappy over his loss.
Don't Just Sit There Like A Bump On A Pickle!
He realized that now is moment. Now is time to take action, now is time to move full steam ahead. There is no tomorrow, only today is promised. So, when you find that it's your time to go Full Steam Ahead, Don't start cooling your jets.
