It's Not Going to Happen If...

You don't just do it.

This is probably the simplest piece of advice ever put on this forum, but it's the truth!

I can't tell you how many times I've "planned" what I was going to do one day, just to end up NOT doing it.

Planning, meditating, writing down goals- it's all well and good, but when it comes down to it, YOU'VE GOT TO JUST PULL THE TRIGGER.

Launch that WSO.
Build that website.
Start a list in your niche.
GO, GO, and go some more!

    I hear you! So true. It is sometimes a true test of willpower, but when you can swing it and just DO it, oh the feeling of accomplishment and productivity! lol

    I've experienced this with some challenging phone calls and telephone interviews: I think and plan and make notes ... and excuses ... and twitch and gnash my teeth ... until finally I say to myself, "Just do it! Get it over with!" And I do and it feels great when it's done!

    Great tips, I wish that more newbies would take the advice to heart. The proof is in the pudding. It's amazing to start out working one day, then the next day see the momentum start to build. Putting in actual work is a snowball effect, the positive kind.

    No one can see it happen until they do it though.

      It seems so obvious, but is possibly the easiest thing to do! I'm doing it right now, getting carried away in the forums instead of doing what I am supposed to be doing. However, I have got my list besides me so shall go off now and get on with DOING IT.

    I definitely agree that many people give up when they didn't even had the will and heart to try it out. There is no easy work today. Many get discouraged easily when they have no idea that many successful people now started from scratch.

    Make progress everyday towards your dreams, and eventually, you'll get there. Be consistent, even small actions taken every day will snowball and next thing you know you have achieved your goal.

    The action taking piece is fascinating. There are so many draws on time and attention that with out specific tasks to be addressed ever day, it's easy to get to the end with nothing accomplished.

    I set task lists that have to be accomplished before I go to bed, and I set blocks of time aside where I do nothing else but those specific tasks. This has been the most helpful approach for me.

    All the best! Kenny

    I look at many people around me. They give me a case study.
    Some people feel good and hopeful when he planed to do a good thing.
    But by the time. They don't do it and ignore their plan. Why ?

    May be because when they plan , they thought they were done.
    But, in fact they were just beginning.

    Ps. I come from country where don't use English is Official language.
    If I use wrong word or wrong tense. Please provide me a correct word.
    Thank you

      It feels good to plan something BIG but later they find out their are a bunch of SMALL tedious tasks to do to get there and that's not fun for most people.

    We always give excuses when we cannot complete something even after a promise. We often give prior conditions like “ It’s impossible for me to do it if I don’t get that money by tomorrow” It is already a pre condition. But we should always have alternative plan so that if the first one fails that alternative can be applied.
