"Each indecision brings its own delays and days are lost lamenting over lost days…. What you can do or think you can do, begin it. For boldness has magic, power, and genius in it."
—Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Time is a moving resource and does not wait for anyone. Whether we like it or not, time moves in the same speed for all of us. Not matter what we want, it is what we act on is very important. In a competitive environment, opportunity goes to the person who is more prepared. No matter how much we want, we cannot put the clock back. We have to make hay when sun shines.
What is said above is very simple common sense. We will agree with this in principle. But we will not be decisive sometimes. We may have a wonderful idea. If implemented, it may also change the quality of our life. We may also have all the resources to act. But we will not act. Like a computer, we will `hang' and get immobilized.
When faced with such a condition, the only thing we can do is to act. Do something or other. Big or small. It can even be a phone call. Or it can be getting up from our seat and walk out. Such small acts, no matter how small or insignificant they may be, will break the ice.
Over this weekend, list a major project which is pending with you for a long time and decide a specific act you want to do and write it down. Fix a time to do it and do it! Do it for each project that is pending with you and see the difference in your life!
