Do something today!

Everything starts somewhere. Obvious, right? But it’s true all the same. Everything, whether it’s becoming a great pianist, or a great athlete, or a professor, or a politician … or a teacher … or a dancer … or having a great relationship … or becoming an advisor to a government … it all starts with some little thing.

You take an interest in athletics, you take your first piano lesson, you get interested in local politics, you ask someone would they like to go for a coffee with you … or whatever it may be. It all starts with the beginning. Great oaks from little acorns grow, isn’t that what they say?

So when you have an idea to do something (to learn a language, to learn an instrument, to learn a new subject, to meet someone special, etc, etc), remember that it all starts somewhere. And that ‘somewhere’ is right here and now! You can have all the plans and hopes and ideas and good intentions, but until and unless you take action, it means nothing. Absolutely nothing.

What will you regret?

Most people, as they get older, have more regret for things they never did than for things they did that went wrong, or went badly. The cause of so much regret can be traced right back to a point in time when that person had an opportunity to do something and DIDN’T TAKE ACTION. It’s at that point that the dream died. It’s at that moment that the possibility withered on the vine.

Get it clear in your mind that the key points in your life are those moments where you could take action … and if you don’t grasp them they can be gone forever. Train yourself to see those possibilities, and to become aware of those key moments, so that you have the chance to grasp the opportunity while it’s still fresh.

And the good news is that it’s easy, because those moments are all around, they’re piling up in stacks, they’re filling the hours of the day, endlessly. At any given moment you can make the decision to DO SOMETHING NOW that will have far reaching consequences. Do something positive, and linked to one of your firmly held desires for your future. Do something positive today, before the moment’s gone.

Start today … right now!

The alternative is a life filled with feelings of regret and of being unfulfilled. Don’t let the music die in you while you’re still alive – sing out, loud and clear, and have no thought for what anyone else thinks of your singing! Decide to go for those things that fill your daydreams with wild fantasies!

TAKE ACTION NOW … or regret it later.
