It is Thursday morning and it has been an interesting 48 hours. When you are lucky enough as me to work with so many brilliant people from all walks of life you get to see and hear a lot of things and it never amazes me the results that some people can get. These results always have one thing in common; the person took action and decided to make it happen.

It is no secret that you get what you put in, your success comes from your desire and that action is the key, so knowing that why do so many people get stuck. Simply put it is their language and what they continue to tell themselves on a daily basis.

A great friend and business client of ours started his business in January this year, still working full time and growing his business on the run. He puts in 50 - 60 hr weeks with a full time job and a small business, he works weekends and on public holidays, why, because he wants to make, he wants to become successful, he takes action on what is told to him.

We were talking last week and I asked how much do you want to make this month, this was something he had not thought about before, he thought whatever it was it was. When I said set yourself a target, a high, scary target, I could see the sparkle in his eye. It was a challenge, something to focus on. So he set himself $4,000 in sales. This was a HUGE step in his business. He called yesterday and had already reached that target with 3 days to go in the month.


So what was it that made that happen? It was that he was willing to take responsibility and make it happen. He was focused on a target and was not going to stop, he did not listen to the voices and he made decisions and took action.

On the other side of the spectrum was an email I received which was asking for help because they were really struggling. Did you hear that language? If you are telling yourself that you are struggling, then your subconscious is delivering. Do not get me wrong we all have days that we would rather forget, but it is how you come out of those moments, it is what you do next, it is what action you take.

There is a difference between not knowing and not doing, if you do not know then go and find a mentor, a course, a workshop to build up your knowledge, go and have someone do it for you. If it is through not doing then only you can be responsible for that.

Remember the world will always be what you make of it and what you do in it. You can be a person that gets on and takes action or a person still sitting in the same spot 12 months later.
