How Bad Do You Want It?

There are 92 days left of the year. There are also 3 months left of the year.

Which one of those feels a bit more urgent to you?

A great mind trick is to look at days instead of months when you need to get something done. It adds a little urgency to your life. Time is one of those things we can never generate more of. Once gone, it’s gone.

Question is: How bad do you want a different life? How bad do you want to quit your job? Get out of debt? Get organized? Lose weight? Get healthier? Travel to that place you said you always wanted to?

How bad do you want it?

Talk is cheap. Action is gold.

Saying you want something isn’t going to do it. Unless you create a plan, implement it and work on it, things are not going to change.

If you are not where you thought you would be this time of the year, you got 92 days to make progress. Don’t beat yourself up if you’ve been slacking on your goals. Studies actually show beating yourself up cause you to procrastinate even more. You can’t change the past but you can change the future.

Decide to take action today. Not tomorrow. Because today is a perfect day to start.

What is ONE goal you want to have either accomplished by the time 2016 rolls around or one you want to have made major headway on?

Then sit down, put times on your schedule when you will work on your goal, stick to it, if you have a bad day, get back up, show yourself grace and then continue. Rome wasn’t built in one day but it got built because people had a vision and stuck to it. They didn’t let one bad day stop the project. They kept going.

Ask yourself:

How bad do you want it?

How bad do you want to quit that dreadful job that is stealing your life?

How bad do you want to get out of debt so you can have more freedom?

How bad do you want to see a place in the world before it may be too late?

How bad do you want to feel healthy and strong?

How bad do you want to wake up every day knowing you are using your potential instead of wasting it?

How bad do you want to live a life that is authentic to you and that makes you excited?

How bad do you want it?

It’s time to stop the excuses. It’s time to start doing. What is the ONE goal you are going to start on today?
