Every day we are presented with choices. Choices that we may not even know about, yet they are still present. We have a choice every day to continue along our path to greatness or wander off the path to do something easier.
We all have goals that we want to achieve, yet we may not always “feel like” working towards them. The fact is, achieving any goal is hard. That is why there is such a sense of accomplishment when you are done, and the feeling is great.
Still, it is much easier to go do the things you “feel like” doing instead of working towards your goal.
However, the longer you wait to work towards your goal, the harder it is to start. So you just have to START! It is not going to get easier and there is not going to be a better time.
There is no time like the present, to start changing your world!
Whatever it is that you wish to achieve in your life, start right now!
Right now is the time to make the right choice and start working towards your goals! Even if you have just 5 minutes right now, and everyday, start working towards your goals!
If you just do one thing to work towards your goal each and every day, you can accomplish anything. The time is going to pass anyway, so you might as well use it to your advantage.
By simply doing one thing every day, you will soon reach the mountain top!
That is how I started my business! In my “FREE time” when I wasn’t working, going to school, and preparing for my powerlifting competitions, I would make sure I forced myself to do at least one thing every day to build my business.
In that time, I created my websites (MathiasMethod.com and StrengthWorld.store), I improved my health with the Daily 30, I wrote this, and all my other books! Yeah, I gave up sleep and things were hard at first.
For the first few months, I did most of my work between 10:00p.m. and 1:00a.m. almost every night. That was my only “FREE time”, but eventually, as I got into the groove of working towards my goal every day, things got easier.
Sometimes I would work for a few minutes while other times I would work for hours, but no matter what, I did something every day and started to make my dreams come true. And so can YOU!
Do what you must to succeed, whether you feel like it or not.
Time is the one thing that we are always losing and can never get back. Knowing this, we have to organize our time and prioritize what we do with it.
Realize that your time is very valuable, even in small quantities. We all need some free time to relax, but too many people waste their own time by doing so many things for others, so then they have no time or energy for themselves.
Without time to yourself, how can you move forward in life? Eventually, we end up making the same mistakes over and over until we wake up 20 years later finally realizing how important all that time was.
If you want to do something with your life, you need to do it right now! Start planning and taking action, because no one is going to hand you the time to do it. You have to fight for your time and take advantage of every free moment to improve yourself. There is no time to waste!
You can start by setting aside, a few minutes each day to work on a project, take 1 day per week, or even use a vacation as your work time to start creating your success.
100% of your time is yours to give.
We need to give some time to our jobs, our families, and our friends, but no matter what, at least 10% of your time needs to be kept to yourself, for yourself! That 10% is 2.5 hours per day, 17 hours per week, 3 days per month, and 36 days per year!
Just think of how much you can get done with just that 10%! Use it to the fullest! Many people use that time just to relax and watch TV, while successful people use that time to advance themselves, even if they don’t feel like it. Which are you?
You are in control of your time, so make sure you are using that time to your advantage. Don’t just giving charity to others, when they don’t return the favor, or be lazy yourself.
Most of the time spent to yourself should be towards your own self-improvement. Success is a habit, so make it a habit to prioritize your time and you will be successful.
You can unwind when needed, but also use your time to create your own success! Success takes time and time is not on our side. Be strong and make your time/success a priority!
