    I found your ideas to ring true.. I know I've been guilty of indecision in the past and it can make you feel paralyzed at times. Once I learned to push through and decisively follow through on each small goal I set for myself the more things went my way.

    @krtinberg Good stuff. The idea of small goals is a great way to start. Everyone wants the 50 yard pass home run goal out of the gate, but the baby steps are key. Thanks for your input

    Loved your tip and the presentation of it. True, indecisiveness can lead to many unfinished projects. Also, the reason some people don't move forward could be because of fear and the lack of confidence.

    I ran an offline business before coming online, and it was uncomfortable making all the decisions....especially when the outcome was unknown. However, every decision, moved the business a little farther. Not only that, many of my fears were unfounded.

    Hey Femi

    Wow that's so awesome that my video has been so valuable to you. I was lucky enough that a number of people shared that video so it got substantially more views than a lot of my other videos.

    Glad to hear about your decisiveness as well. Such a game changer

      Hi Justin ,

      Thought i give feedback on the video and on what i like about it and i have to say ;I don't think it has anything to do with luck . I think what you created right there is a winner. You did a lot of thinks right in that video that makes people want to share without getting rewarded for it . You over 4000 views and almost 10% of your viewers hitting the "like" button

      How people do i know that are indecisive and could use a video like that .

      You have created something that useful to some many people , it would go viral . So many people put off taking action on their goals because they don't want things to go wrong . And in that video you are telling people to do it right now and you help people change their perception about what it takes . and then the graphics also helps because you understand more because of the visual tools within the video

      You cannot have a desire to succeed and watch the video and do nothing!!! Anyone can do 10 minutes . You all of sudden after watching the video begin to look at things a little easier . 10 minutes is easy to do

    Thanks a lot for this great vid, it was very inspiring and thought-provoking. I use to have the shiny object syndrome especially when it came to new CB launches, now they all disgust me and I'm very well focused. Appreciate you sharing your knowledge with us warriors.

    @emmndi - I totally agree. When I first started my business I would always set MASSIVE/unrealistic goals and I constantly missed them. It hurt my confidence. Small goals let you develop confidence. Glad u liked it

    Keep the vids coming, your explanation of being decisive was very well put. I hope you'll continue making more helpful videos like this.

    Thanks Andrew. I definitely will. I have maybe 50 or so of these kind of videos I did last year... then I stopped because I got so busy. But I really enjoy it so I'll be posting more for sure

    thanks for the feedback

    What you say, its a true that everybody should know about it, but always have to remember because we can get lost in the journey this first decision feeling. I have posted in my site about some habits and attitudes to be successful too. I think that I should use this one too. Maybe for another post.

    Hey Kaysa

    Glad to hear you are blogging about these ideas too. I know there is a lot of personal development content out there but I also feel like those ideas get lost when people get desperate to generate income... and then stress takes over.

    These kinds of concepts are often more important that the tangible strategies and tactics of day to day business.

    thanks for your comment

    great, actionable ideas in the video justin! im working on the activity right after i type this out..as a virgo, being a perfectionist is something i deal with in everything i do, but you're so right, you just need to take action and stop worrying about whether your actions are perfect or not...thanks for the inspiring insight!!!

    p.s. very cool that you're from orangeville..im in etobicoke!

    @pinkele - Cool! Yeah there are lots of Canadians (and Ontarians too) around the WF. Thanks for the feedback and I'm glad you like it.

    I think the perfectionism traits can definitely serve you as long as you are always in a mode of action. Sounds like you are going to find that balance now... hope this exercise helps you out!

    good luck

      Great advice. It takes me 10 minutes to decide what flavor ice cream to get, so any help with decisiveness is much appreciated!

    LOL glad you liked it Josh. My wife is the same way when we go out to a restaurant. She has been using the restaurant opportunity as one way to improve in this area
