For those of you who know me, I have been saying that 2009 is my “Year of Execution.” So what does that really mean? It means that this is the year my “some day” ideas start becoming today realities. It means that ideas are cheap, and only execution is priceless. It means put up or shut up.
I’ve learned two valuable lessons recently:
- You are the only one holding yourself back from achieving your dreams. That’s right, you. No one has a gun to your head saying, “You can’t do that.” Trust in yourself that you have everything you need to succeed. Because you do.
- Success is a process, not a stopping point. If you’re so focused on the end result, you’ll never take that first step in the process of creating a wonderful journey. Everything gets better with time and practice; except things that don’t get started in the first place.
So what have you been holding back on? What dreams or desires do you want to fulfill this year? I’ll give you a hint: it’s all up to you. Do yourself a favor and take that first step.
