What is the cost of inaction? Only you can determine this, but will you? Examine, by projecting yourself a year into the future, the status in your life if you simply keep doing the same things you are doing now. Furthermore, examine the projected worsening damages that may present themselves by allowing inaction to continue unabated.
Think of status quo as a fleeting moment. Other than the blink of an eye we are either progressing in our journey to success or we are losing ground. This writing is to focus those of you who wish sincere change in your life the opportunity to experience it. Margot Zemach's award winning book for children, "It Could Always Be Worse" comes to mind as a great read if you are feeling as though you are losing ground. If you do nothing to change, like those in this legendary Yiddish folk tale, it could always be worse.
As a business coach, I listen to the reasons people are interested in a business opportunity where they chart their own destiny. Reasons like repeated loss of a job, insufficient retirement plans leaving retiree with the need to supplement to make ends meet, or not enough for life-long dreams of travel, adventure, or comfort. Some are not able to work outside the home and earn enough to pay day care or are gone so much they have little time left for parenting. Many, ridden with credit card debt, are unable or barely able to make their monthly payments. College tuitions, family vacations, leisure pursuits go unfunded. Those in the housing industry, mortgage lending and real estate sales are experiencing perhaps the greatest downturn in their careers right now.
If you resonate with one or more of the profiles listed and you are ready to "pick your self up" and "start over again" then you can benefit from these words. Note - If you are truly "ready go" skip dusting yourself off. There is little time for it.
Some people say if you do nothing to change your situation, you will be in the same situation a year from now. I do not believe that is true. If you do nothing about your situation, you are likely, in reality, heading down hill. Even ground is just a blink of that eye. If you do not course correct, you will not be in the same situation; you will be in a worse situation. Moving to a positive field, the state of attraction will be a solid step of action.
What will it be that will initiate course correction, change, that action for you? Many factors or interrupters keep us from action. However, the prevalent ones center on fear. Fear, fear of change, fear of the unknown, fear it could be worse all keep people from the self-confidence they deserve and it keeps them from action. Daily I talk with people who are desperate for a change in their lives. They are experiencing the unhealthy pain of a stress pressed life. Inaction will not drive you in any upward bound direction. Most people do not fall into success. They just do not. Most of us who enjoy a ladder of our own climbing have worked hard for what we have achieved. We have become fearless and taken ACTION.
Sure, there is risk. Risk can be minimized. In the system that we teach, a unique business model, people are able to work their W2 jobs while they grow their own residual income stream. We call this "straddling". It is a good fit for those ready to make positive change in their lives and be proactive in accomplishing a sustainable income not dependent upon the whim of corporate mergers or bosses who are trying to produce bottom line results to keep their own jobs. Those who have lost their jobs have a great opportunity to build a residual based income. Our model has the capability of producing substantial income within one to two years so often a job is still necessary for a time. While job-hunting, one can easily devote two to four hours a day to beginning a business that will pay for a lifetime.
If INACTION is a word of past and you are READY GO to work fully focused on charting your own destiny, climbing your own ladder then follow the link provided. It could always be worse and if one anchors in inaction it is very likely it will be worse. In the words of Henry Ford, "Whether you think you can or think you can't you are right". Which right do you want to be?
