The Thought For The Day: Sprinting Through The Tape (part II)
Wednesday, September 23, 2009
Inspiration: “In life you need two lists; you need a very short ‘Yes List’ and a very long ‘No List’. There are only a few things in life you need to say Yes to and that is your mission, the things you are passionate about. Identify everything that is a choke point, everything that inhibits your progress in some way, shape, or form…. and don’t engage in those activities.” Gary Ryan Blair aka The Goals Guy
Be: (positive confession) I Am Sprinting Through The Tape (part II).
Do: (first steps) Today, realize one of the biggest obstacles to you having healthy energy levels and therefore a big obstacle to your overall success is being spread too thin. Sure you are saying yes to good causes (and perhaps some not so good ones) but are those causes in line with your mission? You will burn out if you attempt to be everything to everyone, and in the end disappoint others and yourself. Start expanding that “No List”, and reducing the “Yes List” to the items and actions that are most in line with your core purpose.
Have: (making dreams reality) As I learn to turn down activities that are slowing my progression in the direction of my mission I’ll have more in me to compete in the marketplace and finish strong.
Be, Do, and Have the best day of your life! God Bless You!
