WARNING! There is no video within this post. I warn you because what I’m about to say no video could emphasize the importance of. That message is… THERE IS NO TOMORROW!
Tomorrow does not exist. You probably think I’ve gone mad, what am I saying there is no tomorrow of course there’s a tomorrow, there will always be a tomorrow. But the truth is this… Tomorrow will NEVER get here! We live in the present, tomorrow will always be in the future and the future does not really exist! We live in the now and we can only ever live in the now.
Right, so why am I saying this? Whats the point of trying to prove there is no tomorrow? Well my point is this. If we don’t do something now, this minute this instant, this second! Chances are we might do it another time, or we might not. But if we do it now, then it’s going to get done, the task is going to get started, your idea is going to finally get off of the ground!
Now not everything can be done now. I’m not silly, you only have two hands (probably) and we all live busy lives. But there is a key factor between you, me and those constantly achieving success in multiple areas of their lives. That factor is, speed of implementation. The time it takes between discovering something and putting it into action. Speed of implementation is everything. Taking those first steps to developing an idea and making it a reality. It focuses your mind, releases your creativity and most importantly of all stops you day dreaming! It gets those great ideas out of your head and into action!
Like I said you can’t do everything now, and believe me (coming from someone who takes on too many opportunities at once) you shouldn’t try. But what you MUST do, what you must promise to yourself that you won’t let go, is that great idea. That idea or opportunity that comes up where you just know that this is the one. This is what I need to do, and then do it. Put it into action, write it down, draw it out, do whatever you must just to get it started! Don’t delay! “I’ll do it tomorrow” is the single biggest killer of great ideas becoming amazing realities. “I’ll do it tomorrow” gives the universe a change to hit you with something else that might get in your way. Don’t let that happen.
So, in closing…
What are you waiting for?!
The time is NOW!
That’s quite alright. I personally don’t always like to watch a video. Some people prefer to watch videos because they are a bit lazy about having to read an article. Those persons have never thought of using a text to speech software program. The fact is, when it comes to a timely message, one that we need to heed right away, well, that is the type of message that we should read now – anyway you have to.
I have never understood why people put things off the way that they do, this is an excellent article on why not to do that. Putting thing off only puts you behind on other things as well. I like to get things done when they come up because that means later I am free to do what I want.
Thank you Paul for the uplifting pep talk, I am the type of person that does things now or I forget about it later. My husband on the other hand puts things off and puts things off until the time that would have been perfect is gone. I am going to let him read this and see what he thinks because I really think this could help him.
