Have You Changed To Decide In A Minute?


Quite often...the easiest thing is to just carry on what you've always been doing.

You know...

- Just reading and not applying
- Surfing instead of working
- Watching TV instead of reading
- Doing just enough instead of your best

It seems that we have an in-built capacity to not be that bothered when it comes to taking action about what bothers us!

Why is it so difficult to just stop doing the 'wrong' things...and start doing more of the 'right' things?

Well...we're all essentially lazy, that's why.

Now...I don't necessarily mean lazy in terms of sitting-and-there-not-doing-anything lazy.

Nope. I mean that we're lazy when it comes to making the effort to CHANGE...even one little bit.

Quite often...it's not even that the process of changing is particularly difficult.

After all - how difficult is it to pick up a personal development book at the same time as using a remote control to turn off the TV program that we are just idly watching for something to do?

See what I mean?

I'm going to hold my hands up here - I'm certainly far from perfect where full-on 100% focused action is concerned.

Quite often I'm happy yo just give myself some 'nothing time' to let what I've been focusing on percolate in my brain.

BUT...that doesn't mean to say that I spend hours (or even days) at a time not moving myself forward in some way.

And...neither should YOU!

YOU are here to DO something with the talents you have been given. YOU are here to EXPERIENCE life instead of watching someone else experience it on some reality TV program!

That's why, if you're not moving towards where you (think you) want to go EVERY day - then it's time you changed something. Anything!

One thing to remember, though...is that you musn't just FILL UP your time.

It's all very well spending a week's worth of bedtime reading on a book if all you do is pile it up on your bookcase once you've read it!

At least aim to get some return on your invested time by highlighting the sentences and paragraphs that really mean something to you.

It's also easy to spend hours surfing the 'Net under the disguise of 'investigation'.

I'll be honest - I used to spend DAYS doing that - then wonder what the hell I had achieved the week before!

The outcome of YOUR life is determined by the DECISIONS you make - every minute of every day.

The sad fact for most people is that they will continue to make the SAME ones day-in day-out for the rest of their lives - and spend all of that time wishing things were different.

Things CAN be different (in some cases quite dramatically) - but ONLY if you CHANGE those little DECISIONS you make.

You can decide to do nothing...or you can decide to ACT.

What's it to be?
