I hear people every day tell me what they want in life. Weightloss, where they want to live, someone’s number…the list is endless. my question to them is always – what’s stopping you from getting it? Shortly followed by – so why are you not doing that?
We live in a time where it is easy to be fooled by what seems to be ‘instant success’. Trust me, I fall into this trap too. But let me tell you, NOTHING worth having in this world is instant. Everything worth having takes consistent work and time. You want to lose weight? Fuel your body with fresh food. You want someone’s number? Ask without fear. You want a successful business? Work your ass off every single day to achieve the small goals that add up to the large ones. It is far too easy to live in your phone. A quick scroll through Instagram and you see the end product – not the blood, sweat, tears, stress, arguments, sleepless nights and money that have gone into the making of that one moment that is captured and shared for the world to see. We get disheartened when we don’t seem to achieve at the same rate as the strangers we follow on social media. And that is our ultimate downfall, because from this – we give up, and go for the easy option… what a waste. If you take anything away from this little mind dump of mine this morning, let it be this: ‘Once you understand exactly what it is you need to do in order to achieve what you want in life – you need to act on it. If you don’t, then you never truly desired the goal in the first place’.
