You can sell a story, give a reason, or five, and even create an elaborate excuse. It may distract some folks, and waste both of your time, but it doesn’t change the result you had. Results don’t lie.
Life Goes On
In the moment, some things feel gigantic and overwhelming. Though, often five years later, they seem rather small or normal. Life goes on.
Dream Bigger
It’s just a dream, so why not? How huge could your dreams be? Could you do more to make them a reality? Are you willing to put the effort in to try? Dream bigger – it’s fun!
Attack Your List
Get a few small items off your list each day. And be sure to get 1-3 bigger items moved forward too.
Motivation
Find what motivates you. Write it down. Remind yourself several times each day. Use it to ensure you keep pressing forward, like your life depends on it; Because it does.
Perseverance
Sometimes that is all you need.
Keep At It!
Finish the task at hand. You might miss your train home or your favourite tv show but stick with the task until it’s complete. Or you may never finish it. The Law of Diminishing Intent might grab hold of you and bury your dreams and disciplined ways.
Get Ahead Of Your Commitments
Get things done early. When you are ahead of the game, you will be able to excel more quickly.
Life Is Terminal
We need to embrace this concept, not to scare us into paralysis but to help us release our drive and some sense of urgency that this game is finite.
Work On Your Dreams
No one else will.
