Most people think that when they have chosen a path that's it -
that's the path to follow. This is far from the truth according
to leading Business Coach… Brad Tonini who has just released his
latest book "Make It Happen Now!"
I asked Brad to share his thoughts on why we don't get started
to "Making Things Happen". Here's what he had to say:
"Procrastination is paralyzing to peak performance, it comes out
of 5 key reasons:-
The task is just plain overwhelming You may have a fear of
failure or fear of success You seek perfection and so never get
started You fear a lack of control You haven't associated
sufficient pleasure or pain to the task to get you moving. It is
amazing how we talk ourselves out of things, we create
self-doubt in our mind and we then translate this to negative
self - talk.
The more often we make decisions and get started on a new path
or one that we have desired, we begin to feel empowered, excited
or enthused about making the goal come to fruition.
Get Started Right Now To get started right now on the path to
your ultimate goal, beat procrastination and hours of indecision
by:-
Getting leverage on yourself - tell enough people what your goal
is
Understand your standard excuses and don't listen to them.
Break the goal into bite size chunks and reward yourself on the
journey
Take a fork in the road and simply get started."
The Final Word So what's stopping you from taking action? Forget
the "I'm too busy" excuse. Take action today.
