How many of you sit back and think about all of the things you would do if you hit the lottery? What type of house you would buy, what type of car.
The places you would go and the things you would do....someday.
Someday, One Day.....Eventually...Hopefully.
I used to say those terms a lot. Especially when it came to my goals, aspirations and dreams. The one thing I can say for certain is that it ensured that the things that I wanted to have in my life would remain....dreams. And I would remain the same as I was before I uttered them.
That was my version of progress.
I would spend minutes contemplating, daydreaming about a life in my head. Not planning how to achieve it, but planning how to enjoy it...one day.
And....after it was all said and done I was still....the same.
I didn't use that time to put together a way to achieve what I wanted. I didn't use that time figure what changes I could make in my life to make my dreams a reality.
I just...dreamed. Envy...wishful thinking.
Opportunities came and went, but yet and still....I dreamed. Getting no closer to my desire. Watching it from the comfort of my bed...or chair. I did not look at those opportunities as a way to get what I wanted. I figured some how, some thing would just...I don't know...happen for me.
Oh yeah....the comfort zone.
Here is the sticking point though. Things can sometimes happen for you, but most of the time it will happen BECAUSE of you. Because of what you do, how you do it, the hard work, the time.
The effort.
Therein lies the keys to your potential success. What you dream about can only come true when you are willing to take advantage of the time you have to make them come true.
Will....Effort....Results. Are you "Willing"?
What are you waiting for?
