No Excuses - Take Action!
A huge percentage of people try to get training. They are told exactly how to start and earn in business. They are taught how to market, when to market, where to market and how much to market. They are taught people skills, how to attract people and how best to serve others so they’ll want to do repeat business. In other words, they are give the keys to what amounts to a pot of gold if…they will take Action!
Action is the key.
Action can overcome lack of education, lack of experience and lack of talent. Yet, so many still have a ‘I don’t know what to do’ mindset.
To get beyond ‘I don’t know what to do’ and get to where you’ll take Action you must adapt to new ideas, new ways of proceeding. You must get out of your comfort zone. That box you’re in is your cubicle at work. Do you really enjoy it there?
And don’t think you can’t adapt. Every person on the planet is adapting each day. Short people have to adapt to reach the top shelf. Tall people need to duck to enter some doorways. People in wheelchairs compete in athletic competitions.
There a people that live each day without hearing, sight or the ability to speak and; they each make a way for themselves by adapting to their circumstances. Look at Stephen Hawking’s condition. He’s trapped in a chair and can’t feed or cloth himself and yet, he’s created some of the most profound theories about outer space and is world reknown. He adapted and found a way to have a career.
Look at any single mother trying to raise kids and working 3 jobs to provide for them and making it work. She’s adapting. Visit any elderly person having to live alone with just a small social security check to make ends meet. He/She must pay rent, buy food and keep the electricity on. They know how to adapt.
So, do yourself a favor, you with your two strong legs and arms and decent health; don’t tell yourself you can’t do something just because it’s hard to get started. Yes it’s new. Yes you’re having to learn a few new skills and yes there are bumps in the road but that’s what makes it all a glorious endeavor; stop the pity party and take Action!
There are so many other people; broke, sick, old and handicapped that would give anything to be in your shoes right a this moment.
Be Blessed in 2017…Sincerely,

Hello Donald
You are so on point! I am that person that works according to how I feel that day, that moment, or the aura in the room. I have to work hard at 'focus', and I do. Thank you for your post.
Well, thank you for taking the time to make such a nice comment! You are awesome! I found that once I set a goal that I really was into 110% then, my focus improved greatly. Plus, I stopped watching too much TV to free up more time. Have you heard of the 'shiny object syndrome'? (Or, S.O.S.) That's when we get distracted by another 'terrific opportunity' and we jump on it, forgetting that we already were in a place to make a ton of money. That's a goal killer too! Jumping from bizop to bizop. With WA we can do our training here and apply it knowing we'll start to make great money in no time. Remembering this let's me ignore the S.O.S. and all the Hype that goes with those promotions. In other words, let WA be your thing and ignore everything else and you will thrive soon.
All the best,
Donald
Ah yes S.O.S. I struggle with it. It's my Frienemy. It's so kind to me but robs me of my goalsetting time. I am getting better though, I realized that every step I'm taking now is a big step forward to seeing my goals come to life.
Thanks for the information.
Oh! I love this. It says what I have always tried to teach my sons. I am one of those who homeschooled my boys because I had problems with the values being taught in the school system. My youngest is bipolar and no one believed my son could do the things he is doing today... now I've found a place where I can be part of a community that believes I can do what I taught my sons they could do. You are awesome DGaw...
Thank you so much for these kind words. My Grandson has been home schooled too and is doing great and is way far ahead of kids his own age that attend public school.
I really appreciate you taking the time to reply to me. Made my day!
Sincerely,
Donald

Thanks Donald, Very encouraging. Procrastination is easy and I like to have achievable goals. At least then action is possible. Maybe many people set themselves difficult goals and then easily get disheartened?
The longest journey starts with just one step.
