The Time to Do It is Now!

Executive Coaching

Whenever I’m on a morning bike ride, I listen to all sorts of books and podcasts that will help me grow. One of my recent books was The Power of Now by Elkhart Tolle. There is something he said that hit me.

 

He said that the only time that matters is NOW, not the past or the future, since we can only remember past events or think about what might happen in the future. The NOW is the playing field for really making things happen.

 

Ever since I listened to the book, I have thought about the importance of what I am doing presently and how I have the chance to make this day like no other.

 

POINTS YOU MIGHT WANT TO REMEMBER

1.   Today is big, so I need BIG GOALS to get results.

2.   I must get an EARLY START so that I don’t feel pressured later in the day.

3.   I should approach my goals with PASSION so that I get action.

4.   I will downplay the urgent and replace it with the IMPORTANT.

5.   I will carefully weed out any INTERRUPTIONS so I am not held back.

6.   At the end of the day, I will CONGRATULATE MYSELF, listing what I achieved.

 

Do you see the value of the PRESENT? Get started today in creating the life you want by operating with real passion in the present time. You’ll accomplish more than ever before.
