Action reaps rewards

Greetings:

Okay I am on a roll here. Every Monday I receive this great ezine from my friend and associate Cookie Tuminello, Life Success Coach. This week Cookie and I are on the same page. She is talking about Action! I tell you I sat straight up when I read Cookies second sentence, there are 183 days that have come and gone and we are officially at the half way mark of the year. When did that happen? And while time was passing were we busy accomplishing our goals or doing something else? My guess is a little of both. However time is moving on and if you want 2008 to be the best year yet you better get busy. No time to rest, it is time to get going and focus on the goals you set in the beginning of the year (you do remember them don't you?)

Here's to taking action,
Rachelle

"Life rewards action - not intention, not insight, not wisdom, not understanding." - Dr. Phil McGraw

It just occurred to me the other day that in 21 days from today, half a year will have passed. That's a 183 days (yes, this is a Leap Year so we get one extra day to work with!) that have come and gone which can never be taken back. Which leads me to ask you this: How long are you going to chew on whatever it is that you've been wanting to change, but haven't had the courage to tackle yet? Are you willing to wait for the rest of the year to go flashing by before you take that next step?

Dr. Phil knows from where thou speaks. I, myself, have been a victim of this paralysis. You keep waiting for the right time, the right information, the right education, blah, blah, blah. And a year later here you sit. Come on folks, this is your life we are talking about here. Life is not a spectator sport where you get to sit on the sidelines and cheer for your home team. Although, it has been my experience that a lot of us live our lives as just that - a spectator waiting for someone else to score the winning goal for us.

The world doesn't care how much you know, how smart you are, how understanding you are, how insightful you are, how skinny you are etc. The people of this world will know you by what you DO and BE. The proof is in the pudding. Think about this ladies: six months of the year are gone. You are burning precious daylight here. What do you want to create in your life by the end of December? Do you REALLY want to wait another 6 months to be the success you want to be? I don't think so.

It's kind of funny how the big "P" eats up your precious life. I'm talking about that dreadful word 'procrastination', people. It's a known fact that success comes to those who take purposeful, committed action. You will never know what you can achieve until you step out and do it.

Here are some affirmations that have supported me in taking action:
Good is good enough - Once you make the decision to have what you want, the HOW will show up.


Act with speed - There will never be a perfect time, perfect place, perfect plan, perfect anything. Start with the information you have now. The rest will show up as you go.


Believe in yourself. You will never know what you could be until you let go and take action. You will never grow until you do.


So, here's my challenge to all of you this week. What is ONE thing you can do right now that will move you forward to achieving your goal? I'm not asking you for your "To Do" list, I'm asking you to just pick ONE thing that you can manage and start doing something about it. We all had to learn to crawl before we managed to walk, so take a leap of faith and make that first baby step TODAY! Don't let another 183 days zip by you in a blur, having never even made an attempt to institute a change in your life.

Because frankly, we only get one kick at the can folks. So get your mind in gear and get your foot in action to step out into your life now.
