The key to success is effective action - doing the right things – doing them quickly – doing them well. You gain a lot of momentum and confidence when you do the difficult things while they are easy, and taking the small baby steps that will lead you to greater accomplishments. Following a logical sequence helps you avoid overwhelm. Remember what the great Chinese man said: “a journey of a thousand miles begins with the first step.” Just take the first step… and then the next step… and yet another step after that… you don’t have to see the whole staircase. Just keep stepping. Have faith that as you keep stepping, your path will become clearer.
Proceed with vigour and purpose. Do what you can, where you are, with what you have. Use confident and empowering vocabulary. Don’t say ‘I can’t’ or ‘I will try’. Say “I WILL DO IT!”
What holds you back, most often, is thinking that you can’t. Just get in there and do the deed. So what if you fall flat on your face? Get your ass up and try again. Be biased towards taking action. Get into the habit of striking while the iron is hot.
Do It Now! Do It Quick! Do It Well!
