Just Do It!

I know that is Nike's well-known slogan but to honest I couldn't think of a better title. I have a habit of just rushing into things. I like to discover the unknown because that's where all the possibilities are. Procrastination is the number reason why most people fail at anything because they never start to begin with.

Procrastination is pretty much the fear of trying out new things. If you have already done it before then it wouldn't be much of a big deal. But if it's something totally new, most people would just say to themselves that they are going to do this and do that but never get around to it. We like to put things off for the next day but why put off for then when you can just do it now? The sooner you start a project, the sooner you know where it's going.

Don't wait until tomorrow, next week, next month or next year. Don't make silly New Years' resolutions. Whatever it is you want to start, start NOW! Don't worry about how you are going to do it. The "how" is already taken care off. Once you start doing, the "hows" generally fall into place. Of course everything is not going to turn out the way you would want. But if you don't do it now then how are you ever going to find out if it does?

Think of it this way. If you don't do it now, someone else may beat you to it. And you wouldn't like that very much. What if you had an idea that nobody else had and someone else came out with the same idea and you say "well that was MY IDEA!". Yes. Exactly. But you know what happened? You didn't ACT on that idea so the idea came from somebody else. It's ACTION that takes the cake. Many people like to talk about their ideas but never do anything with them. You must do something and you must do it NOW!
