A former coworker sent me a reminder this morning, “Those who wait for perfect weather will never plant seeds, those who look at every cloud will never harvest crops.”
How often do we wait to do something until it is the “perfect timing” or until we “get it just right”? For me, starting this blog was a big step. I wanted to get it “just the way I wanted it”.
Then I realized, what in the HECK am I waiting for? I may not be alive tomorrow, and I want to inspire some folks! And trust mePERFECT is FAR from my middle name. So why wait to be perfect?
Now I’m not saying striving for excellence shouldn’t be an aim. However, the only way to get there is by DOING.
Do you know someone in your life who has been waiting for the perfect moment a LONG TIME? Do you know someone who is doing the same thing they did 10 years ago, but still expecting change? I mean, we’ve all been guilty.
The thing is if you want to change something, get better at something, grow at something, make your dreams a reality…. then it has to start with DOING.
I work with individuals each day who teach me the power of progress. And let me tell you, there is no one that walks in my office and leaves the next day completely changed; life just doesn’t work that way.
We often fall under the misconception that what we want today should happen tomorrow. WHAT?!?! Ask yourself how long did it take you to talk, walk, finish high school, learn how to drive? Yep, it took ya a while.
It sure didn’t happen overnight. But the beautiful thing is CHANGE IS POSSIBLE.
Where you are now, isn’t where you have to be. YOU JUST HAVE TO START SOMEWHERE.
BE INSPIRED
