Action creates opportunity. Inaction steals it.

Make sure you get the ratio right if you want to live the life you’ve imagined.

Some thought-provoking words to ponder from @johnmarkcomer -

“In the end, your life is no more than the sum of what you gave your attention to.”

I certainly want my life to add up to more than food, Netflix, and social media.

You Can Never Go Back but You Can Change How the Story Ends https://t.co/LxzehaQPqf

Look back a day or a week and we see little evidence of change. Look back a year or five years and it’s obvious.

Every change in our bodies, minds and bank accounts happened slowly. If we don’t make the daily changes we should, we probably won’t like the outcomes later.

At some point, preparation is simply an excuse for inaction. Getting ready to work or write or exercise is not the same as working, writing, and exercising.

Preparation and planning are important. Just make sure to spend more time doing than preparing.

[Kevin John Delaney @KJDelaney]

Some resist change, press on stubbornly into the wind, and get pushed off course or stalled.

Some adapt to the winds of change and learn to let the wind get them where they want to go.

It’s our choice if we will resist or adapt.

Fault is past tense. Responsibility is present tense.
Fault results from choices that have already been made.
Responsibility is the choice that we get to make today.

As coaching legend John Wooden said, “Focus on the process instead of the prize.”

If we focus on the what, the why, the how, and the when, the results will take care of themselves.

If you aren’t good at love, you aren’t good at life.

Love is patient. Love is kind. It always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

If you want to improve your life, get better at love.

[Kevin John Delaney @KJDelaney]

So many people put off living life and enjoying it because they first want to finish school, sort out their career, make money and be successful.

There will always be another goal, another person to impress, a desire for more. Living is only in the now. Enjoy it or miss it.

[Kevin John Delaney @KJDelaney]

Great reminder from @bobgoff today:

“Great ideas that don’t work out are usually on-ramps to better ideas that do.”

Explore, attempt, and experiment. The life you’ve always imagined is waiting for you.
