Without action, nothing will happen.

Now is only present right now, soon now will become then, and later will become now.

Would you rather have done something then or later?

Go out there and do something RIGHT NOW.

    You are right. Present is where the battle of life happens. We should focus on making it fruitful or it will just merge with the other fruitless moment that is now the past. Then we will complain about not having enough time, thus wasting more present moments.

    Break the vicious cycle and take action now!

    Yes... do something NOW. Even it still hasn't been perfect yet. Just do something you can.
    Start now, the time will never be right.

    Just like Mark Zuckerberg said: "You need to start somewhere"
    or Robert Kiyosaki said: “Tomorrows only exist in the minds of dreamers and losers”

    Just do something, even it's just a little thing. Just start somewhere, even it's just one step further. One small step will lead to another one small step.

      Excellent quotes.

      I love the one that Kiyosaki said It's a very valid statement too.

      There are times where I say, oh I'll just make sure to do that tomorrow, when I could have done it today. If I had only done it today, I wouldn't have had to worry about it.

    A lot of us don't move because of procrastination which is a form of fear. Fear can come from a lack of confidence or unpreparedness, wasting time or not knowing how to say "no", to name a few. So, to move effectively, once we are properly prepared, we must manage our time & energy well. That is working smarter & not harder.

    Problem is just telling someone to take action rarely works. Most educated people who don't take action, don't because they are feeling depressed, hopeless, and might have low self esteem.

    They need hope and need to start changing their negative mental thoughts to positive thoughts. Then they will being taking action.

    A great quite from Jim Rohn is "For things to change, you need to change".

    Great idea in theory, but I'm convinced that you can't just tell someone to take action. They have to want to take action on their own.

    I've noticed that the most driven and successful people I've run into often have had really hard lives starting out and that is what prompted them to take action.

    Pssh, I agree 10 fold.

    There are so many people I try to motivate daily to take action towards something that could ultimately give them a lot of success, and yet rarely does anyone do it.

    As for those having hard lives, I agree that it's something that can be beneficial to push them, but it's not always the case.

    I just think people need to build up their momentum from nothing to something. Versus just jumping in and spending tons of money thinking it's going to solve a problem.

    Many educated people will look for excuses for not taking action. This inaction is quantifed by statements such as 'from my analysis, the return is not as high as could be' or looking at all the things that could go wrong.

    As a result, they wait and wait for a better opportunity, or say that they are waiting for the right time. Then they never take action.

    * I may or may not have done this a few times. Reformed now though...

    Ya we all know what you are actually trying to mean. But we know it all but actually we do not know it that how to start and when to start. That's the problem.

      If you have a goal. Then you know how to start.

      The problem is that you aren't starting.

      There is no "when to start" just start right now.

      If you keep allowing yourself to wait, you're going to continue to procrastinate and never get anything done.

    Totally agree with you Justin, sometimes I need to keep reminding myself of this. Procrastination is one thing which really takes your focus away from ACTUAL ACTION.

    If your business is your hobby then you are in the right track. Earning while doing what you love to do in your daily life is best thing that could ever happen to you. If your business is your hobby you won't even think that you are working at all. You are getting paid for doing what you love to do.
