I know that recently you might be
having a very good idea of growing your economy, making your health,
relationship and working ability better. Not only now but also for a long time
you had been coming up with a lot of brilliant ideas to get the life you want?
Do you remember how many good ideas you had been generating without
implementing them up to now and you wonder why you are not moving ahead
economically, relationship wise, health wise etc? YES so much of them.
This is an experience most of us
face, I have also been passing through this challenge for a very long time when
I came up with very brilliant ideas to do something good in my life and the
life of others too, I sometimes wrote them down and failed to realize them in
the real world due to many different reasons being fear of coming out thinking
that I am personally not deserving to do what I am thinking, fear of rejection,
discouragement from my close friends, lacking resources due to not being
resourceful myself, not being flexible to change my beliefs (being conservative
in my paradigm of looking at things), not being ambitious and passionate to
some ideas etc.
Is among these factors a reason for
you not to start working on your life changing ideas you have? Probably yes.
What happens in life as you take care of these reasons is for you to postpone
implementing your idea from today and turn it into a WISH that you will do it
sometimes later and this behavior keep on doubling days every time you reach
the time you planned to start. If you have managed to say you will start
implementing your idea tomorrow then it won’t be difficult for you to say it
again by tomorrow so it will keep on being tomorrow I will or someday I will
until you totally give up or get old and unable to do it.
That’s why...
It is very important you start
working on your idea today. If your idea is clicking so much in your mind today
then know that it is trying to push you execute it in the real world, it is
just alarming you that this is a right time to do it for your state of mind is
in a position to pursue it, by this moment there is no any contamination of
other frustrating thoughts in your mind, it is just this brilliant idea taken
over whole of your life, it is an opportunity for you to spend this
opportunistic time to do what your life is alarming you to do. Have you experienced
seeing a lot of possibilities and opportunities to pursue your idea by the time
you are deeply thinking about it? I bet yes, and then this proves to you that
it was a right time for you to start working on it that very day.
Be responsible for yourself
This day I was discussing with a
friend of mine (Safari Fungo) on why others succeed to initiate their ideas and
others not? What we discovered is that the above reasons I have mentioned to
you plus not being responsible for you leads to most of us not realizes our
dreams. Do you remember how many times you failed to do what you were supposed
to do and pointed a finger to someone else that is the one who led to your
failure? And furthermore do you remember how many times you didn’t even start
working on your idea simply because you believed someone must do some part or
of it all for you and when this person didn’t do you started pointing your
finger at him or her? And lastly do you remember the time someone failed to
start his/her project complaining that you didn’t support him/her? This is irresponsibility
that me and my friend Safari Fungo we were talking about.
Put in your mind that although we
relate to each other in different ways but your life is not someone else’s life
and nobody except you has a right to take care of your life be your parents,
siblings or friends, as long as you are an adult then you should be responsible
to work on your ideas by yourself while convincing others to join your idea
because you interdependent each other.
Remember interdependence does not
mean dependence, you should not only depend on me but depend on me because I
also depend on you, I give you what I have because you give me what I need from
you and our combination generates what we both want in our life, it must be
WIN-WIN and not WIN-LOOSE situation between us.
What you can do from today.
As long as you have an idea which you
real believe in it then it is a right time today to start thinking creatively
on how are you going to implement it in the real world, today is a right day to
start planning the way you are going to start implementing it immediate after
you finish, planning.
Write down your idea, write your vision
behind that idea (in that idea where do you want to be 10 years from now?) then
set some long term goals (in your idea what do you want to achieve in the
coming 12 months?), set some short term goals (what do you want to achieve in
the coming 6,5,4,3,1 month from now?),set some weekly goals (in your idea what
do you want to achieve at the end of this week?) and lastly write down your to
do list in this day and week in general so that you can start implementing it
immediately today.
In this planning process…
I know that most of us hate it but
the truth is; it minimize a lot of unnecessary challenges as you start working
in your idea, I have proven this by myself as I decided to start working on my
idea that day. And it made me enjoy my work as I knew what I was doing in a
long run.
If you are going to keep on
postponing to start working on your idea from today don’t expect tomorrow to be
motivated differently, if you want so, then use today for making a simple and
realistic plan on the way you are going to start doing it and start
implementing your plan just after you finish planning.
If you do this; according to my
experience you are going to realize your dream just from today onwards!
All the best!
