I’ve seen way too many people wait for everything to be perfect before they decide to take action. The problem is, they never take action. When an amazing opportunity comes, they are waiting until they become motivated or fully ready for it.
People make the mistake thinking that motivation comes before action. The truth is, that is a backwards way of thinking. Many look for ways to get motivated to exercise, to get up early or to stop procrastinating. The motivation may be good in the beginning, but shortly thereafter, the motivation fades and action stops.
It’s important to take small actions to keep the motivation going. The truth is, that action leads to motivation. Whatever you want to get motivated about, it’s important to understand that it all begins with action. It’s the action that comes first and then the motivation comes after that. How many times have you said “I need to get motivated to take action“? If you truly want success you have to change that phrase to “I need to take action to get motivated.”
In order to have success, it is important to have goals. We definitely want to set long-term and big goals, but when it comes to taking action, you must focus on the small goals first. The key to getting started is to have a simple plan to achieve those daily goals. Don’t wait for motivation. Take small specific actions to get started. Once you do that, you begin to build momentum and then the motivation naturally happens.
Remember that your feelings have nothing to do with getting started. Never wait until you feel like it. The motivation will always come from action. When you start taking action, motivation follows. If you only wait for inspiration, that’s going to be a problem which will stop you from having success.This is why routines and scheduling time for success are very important. Never wait until you’re in the mood. Put together a plan and stick to the plan. Write out your success schedule and make that part of your life.Get rid of all procrastination. If you wait for motivation first, you may never get started. You must start and then the motivation will follow.Action is the key to success. If you want to be a top level performer, you must take massive, determined action.
Going forward, never allow anything to ever hold you back again. Motivation is important, inspiration is important, but the most important thing is to simply just take action right now. If you feel like you’re not ready, take action. If you don’t feel motivated, take action. If you’re not inspired, take action. No matter what your feelings are, make the decision to take action.
You have an incredible opportunity at your fingertips. Don’t waste it!
Do not procrastinate any longer!
Do not make any excuses!
If you want true incredible success, start right now, start right where you’re at and make the commitment to TAKE ACTION!
