“Procrastination is the bad habit of putting off until the day after tomorrow what should have been done the day before yesterday.” Napoleon Hill
One of the biggest dream destroyers to your Home Business is attributed to Procrastination. This often leads to regrets, guilt, and self-incrimination for all of the things that we could have done, but did not. Carrying those emotions can suck the life right out of us. Procrastination is the grave in which opportunity is buried.
So what happened, how did you loose our way? How much time has gone by, without applying effort towards you goals? What would taking focused action meant to you, your family, and your finances?
It’s NEVER too late! YOU certainly are worth your dreams!
Taking ACTION often eliminates the emotional drain of procrastination. Have you ever stepped back and thought about why you are procrastinating, and noticed all the energy that was burned up thinking up Excuses? Motivational Speaker, Ellie Drake says, “It is Easier DONE than Said!” Once we quit wasting time and energy on talking about something, we can put that focused energy on taking Action.
Make excuses or make money. . .
you won’t do both!
you won’t do both!
One of my Mentors, Personal Development Coach and Motivational Speaker, Marq Jeffrey, gave me an excellent book, NO EXCUSE! by Jay Rifenbary. Jay gives you a treasury of ideas to help you overcome obstacles and achieve excellence. He provides a concise plan for taking personal responsibility and living the NO EXCUSE lifestyle. This has been an eye opener for me, as far as, coming to awareness of all the procrastination and excuses I give myself throughout the day.
Perhaps we have gotten in to such a HABIT of making excuses and we don’t even recognize an excuse/procrastination when we are doing it. It is often the little things that get us as we are unaware of. Awareness is the first step to change.
For example, just last week, I received notification from one of our buyers that they can no longer pay on the note that I am holding the financing on their home and that they have abandoned it. With this notification of the situation, I immediately wanted to get to work on the process of taking possession and getting it back up for sale. However, it was optimum time for making calls and business building. It would be best to work on the house situation later that evening. I recognized this and realized this could have been ‘used’ as an excuse and distraction to staying on track of what was planned for the day.
Many times we seem to have ‘good reasons’ for not following through with our objectives of the day, as in this case, however, for me, it is not only about NOT doing something by making excuses and procrastinating, but as equally important, watching WHAT I am doing, watching the distractions, and keeping to my schedule. Practice the habits of success by making the most of every Action Step taken towards accomplishing the goals and objectives set for achieving your dreams for your home business.
Distraction is the ‘sister’ to procrastination. Learn the principle of concentration. It is all about finishing. Take the most mental fortitude. Resilience is Key to Building Wealth With Your Online Business Opportunity. Finishing is always the hardest part. It will take concentrated focus on what is important, and not allowing stray thoughts and monkey chatter to divert you from your goals and objectives to accomplishing your dreams.
Will you be disciplined to work on your goals and objectives or find something to get distracted with? Success acquires a high level of performance. Strengthen your inner core for highest potential. Focus on what to do today and finish with sense of urgency.
It always comes down to YOU. . . make a commitment to YOURSELF and take ACTION. Make everything count. Play full out to win! You can . . . you have the power within. Unleash Your Greatness!
To Your Success!
