Start Taking Action Now - You'll Be Closer to Your Dreams
Do you know what keeps people from achieving their goals or
living their dreams? It’s not taking action. You can spend all the time in the
world envisioning your future, setting goals, creating affirmation statements,
meditating, and networking with successful people. However, if you spend all
your time preparing and don’t take any action, your goals won’t materialize. Yes,
you have to start taking action to make your goals and dreams come true.
Most people come up with brilliant ideas and want to make
improvements to their financial well being, health and relationships with
family and friends. However, self-doubt can step in when you start thinking, “I
can’t” or “It’s impossible to do” before they even start taking action. Too
many dreams have been shattered, especially those with lots of potential, because
people don’t take action before self-doubt starts to kick in.
If you have set your goals, make sure to begin taking action
right away while you have high energy and enthusiasm. Ride the wave of momentum
before it dies out. Decide what you are going to do in the next 24-48 hours to
put one of your main goals into action. If your goal is to lose 10 pounds by
July of this year, then make the decision to spend 30 minutes a day walking,
and just do it. Don’t delay and don’t make up excuses that you don’t have any
time. Then plan what you are going to do during the next 30 day to put some of
your other goals into action. If you want to exceed your sales targets for the
quarter, then make a plan of how many prospecting calls you’re going to make
every day for the next 30 days. Discipline yourself so that you follow through
with your plan.
Have faith and confidence in yourself that you are going to achieve
big goals. Don’t worry about what other people will think about you – it’s your
life, not theirs. And whatever you do, don’t give up. Too many people give up
just right before the floodgates of success start opening.
Now that you have envisioned your future and have laid out
concrete plans, just go for it and start taking action. Stop waiting for the
perfect time to do it. There is never a perfect time. And stop taking so much
time coming up with the perfect plan. Successful people will tell you that
things didn’t happen according to how they initially planned it. They kept
taking action, and made adjustments along the way. My mentor told me that
perfectionism is masked laziness. Some people may tell you that they are
working to perfect their plan, when in fact, it’s just another excuse and they’re
either afraid or lazy to start. So go ahead with the plunge and start taking
action. You’ll be glad you did.

Re: New Video - Should I Get A Job Or Start A Business?
- Hi Evan,
I was curious to know what you'd suggest and I think you gave excellent advice. Taking a year out to try and start your own business is a great idea. Taking a year out after college is a well established option so I guess it doesn't prejudice your chances of getting a job should you wish to do so later on; it probably improves your chances if you've been getting valuable experience of managing a business and of course, if all goes well, you won't need to find out.
Definitely a video for my website.
Thanks!
David

Treasure Hunt: Inside the Mind of the New Consumer
- Treasure Hunt: Inside the Mind of the New Consumer
Michael J. Silverstein
2006
From the inside jacket:
"Today's consumers can seem impossible to understand, and even harder to please. For instance, the average mall shopper will spend about $100, then leave when she hits that limit. SHe'll probably buy shoes rather than clothing, because she doesn't want to think about her dress size. And the store most likely to get her money isn't the one with the nicest display or the deepest discounts - it's the one closest to her parking spot."
Okay, ladies here at evancarmichael.com? Do you follow this generalization? I myself go to bookstores, and nowhere else. Being self-employed in a home office, I don't need to buy new clothes, but I confess I did buy a new pair of bike shoes recently...
The Introduction states:
"This book tells the story of how middle-class consumers around the world are reshaping the consumer-goods market by trading down to low-price products and services, trading up to premium ones, and avoiding the boredom and low value that increasingly characterizes the middle. These consumers, mostly women, are better educated, have more disposable income, and are buying with more sophistication than ever."
