Be Great Today!

My 7 year old daughter, Megan, made this brilliant statement this spring as the answer to her fears of doing a reverse summersault on the bar in gym class.  My brilliant little girl instinctually figured out all by herself what most people never realize their entire life.  Megan does wear Nike’s, but I know that she isn’t aware of Nike’s “Just Do It” ad campaign that has been popularized since before she was born. 

Why don’t we all “Just Do It” when it comes to something we are unsure of.  The obvious answer is… FEAR.

If we would just spend the time required to learn whatever we need to learn in order to get whatever we want to get, we could then just go after IT (whatever “IT” is for you) without FEAR.  The end result… we would all be happier, healthier, and have more peace of mind and success.

So, I for one, am going to take Megan’s sage advice and keep on “Just Doing It!”

Peace!

How often do you find yourself asking others what to do when you know the answer already?  Maybe, you don’t like what you know needs to be done and feel it’s easier to ask others in hopes that someone will give you another option which will allow you to not do what you know needs to be done.

You need to step up to the plate, and use your head.  Think!  Listen to your gut!  That feeling in your belly will guide you along your path and help you make the right choices.

Still having trouble deciding?  Grab a pen and paper.  Write down the issue at the top of the page, and put a line down the middle.  On the left hand column write the pro’s of the issue and on the right hand column write the con’s.  Now that you have the issue from all angles written down, leave it alone for awhile.  Come back throughout the day, and review.

If you need to solicit advice, do so after you have already done the above.  You will have more perspective, be able to ask more intelligent questions, and most importantly, be able to make a more intelligent decision!

Now you’re ready to make things happen! 

 Have a great day!
