It seems like I have so many ideas and goals that I just can’t seem to get off the ground or accomplish. It’s like I’m stuck in a bubble of content because I have allowed minor things get in the way of what I’m trying to accomplish. They say there are 3 types of people: 1. Those that make things happen. 2. Those that watch things happen. 3. Those that wonder what happened. I feel like right now I’m watching things happen and wondering what happened as well instead of making things happen. I’m really would like to know what I need to do in order to become the guy that makes things happen and I think I have a pretty good idea of what I need to do in order to get more of my ideas off the ground and more of my goals accomplished.
First, I have to value my time because I can’t get time back so I have to make sure I’m spending my time on subject matter or activities that serve a purpose that will enhance me as an individual in one or more ways. I have plenty of free time to get a lot of things done but I waste a lot of that time on non-sense and it must stop. I pledge that from this point, I will value my time and use my time doing something productive that will lead to a goal being accomplished or an idea finally getting off the ground. Minimize time wasted YP’s!
Secondly, I need to be more organized. I need to take my own advice of constructing a daily agenda, weekly agenda, monthly agenda and even yearly agenda which is what the most successful people do. Successful people follow strict schedules/agendas which allow them to stay on track and accomplish things. Constructing an agenda will help me stay a little more focused and help me remember more things I need to do which will result in me getting more done and it’s as simple as that. An agenda is just reinforcement, which we all need sometimes YP’s so let’s hold ourselves accountable by having an agenda to keep us on track.
Finally, I need to execute/complete things on my agenda! Execution is where I tend to stumble for a number of reasons that successful people would probably refer to as excuses. I have to execute regardless of what obstacles may be thrown my way. It’s as simple as driving with my GPS on and the road is blocked ahead and I hit the detour button on my GPS and it sends me a different route but I get to my destination no matter how many times I have to hit the detour button. And this is what I have to do in order to accomplish my goals, aspirations and dreams. I have to hit the detour button and accomplish my goals, aspirations and dreams by any means necessary. YP’s we all have a GPS and know where we’re going but a lot of times instead of using the detour button, we hit the home button and never get to where we wanted to go so YP’s use your detour button and get where you want to be by any means necessary.
P.S. In addition, enough with the lip service! YP’s it’s time to do! Do! Do! Don’t tell me what you’re going to do! Show me through your actions.
