Do you do things that you don't want to do? Do you not do things that you do want to do? Do you find every reason in
book to delay what needs to be done? Would you like to know secret of getting things done? Then hang on tight, cause this buds for you.How do you make secret of getting things done an everyday part of your life? It's done by a nasty word…..habit. Ok then, how do I develop a habit? Another dirty word; by repetition. Plant a cotton seed and you'll grow cotton. Plant a habit or action and you'll grow a habit.
Here it is: The Naked Truth!
Sow a good habit and you'll grow a good character. Sow a good character and you'll grow a great destiny. Bend over backwards to help others and you'll be first with most all time. Sow insult to injury and you'll go off half-cocked.
Oh.. But you hurt my feelings. Nah!! That ole dog won't hunt. So, there's no sense in you putting him in your pick-up. Don't you get mad at me now.
Listen; we all become what our habits make us. And, we all choose our own habits. Either consciously or unconsciously by repetition we become what our habits dictate. The nice thing is; we can go full steam ahead when it comes to developing desirable habits.
Here is a good way to develop a favorable habit. Program your brain to a make an affirmation. One that I have used for many years is affirmation, "Do it Now." And then act as soon as your subconscious flashes that affirmation to your consciousness.
Swallow your pride!
Here is an example. Next time your stomach says, "Eat that second piece of pie", and your "hips" say, put it back, you say, "Do it Now." Get it?
This has held me in good stead for many unpleasant tasks that I would really just as soon put off as long as I could. You know things like baby sitting and changing dirty diapers. I mean hey, changing dirty diapers is way down on my list of things to do,… right next to snake hunting. Hehehe.
Well, I didn't coin phrase "Do it Now", but I have used it for many years. And, it is very important that you take action as soon as you say it. The action is what causes this to become repetitive. That's why you should only use this for a good and desirable habit you're trying to develop. Half-Cocked habits can be just as destructive as good habits can be productive.
Quick As A Lick!
Immediately act as soon as your subconscious flashes this affirmation to your conscious. Make it an everyday practice. Then in times of emergency, when you really need to take immediate action, good habits that you developed will come to your aid.
If you will begin using this self motivator with little things it will become easier to get things done in big matters later on.
This will help you to act when opportunities come your way and not just sit there batting your eyes like a toad frog in a hail storm. That frog may have very powerful legs to jump to safety, but dumb frog just sits there.
And, how many times have we seen "our" opportunity come along; I mean it had our name written all over it. It was everything we had envisioned it would be; just like we had planned; it looked just like we knew it would look; we could even taste it. And what do we do? Sit there like a frog.
