Take Action Now

You must take action now that will move you towards your goals. Develop a sense of urgency in your life. -Les Brown

You are never going to achieve your goals if you just sit around waiting for them to happen. Goals take work. That’s not a bad thing. You need to develop a sense of urgency – not in the “oh my gosh, something is wrong,” sense, but more in the being aware that this is what you want, and this is what you’re going to do to get there. It doesn’t have to be hard, grueling work. In fact, I’m thinking it’s probably better if you’re having fun while working toward your goal.

I’m sitting here tonight watching the American Idol and I realized something. The two final contestants, Scotty and Lauren both had a goal. They wanted to be singers. And they are working toward their goal. The initial step they took was to audition for American Idol. I’m sure it was scary, and nerve wracking to say the very least, and yeah it was work, but I’m betting it was the most fun work EVER!

So set that goal and yeah develop a sense of urgency and work – but most of all, have fun.
