Getting things done

Today I learned that if you really want something, all you have to do is ask, and try hard.  I've been pushing towards goals for a while, but I was trying to do it all on my own without communicating it to anyone, even people I've known for 20 years.  This is a mistake.  Even if you have a fear their reaction, sometimes it's good just to put it out on the table so that you can see your idea for yourself.  Once you verbalize something, it can be easier to visualize it.  And once you visualize something your brain will tend to point your actions in a direction to fulfill that visual goal.  Plus, you never know.  By sharing, you may gain an ally that will springboard you to where you want to be in life.  The worst kind of anxiety is not knowing.  And that will keep you from succeeding.  So again, I will tell you to take action, take a step towards your goals.  I would be more than happy to help you get there.

Done for the weekend. Are you?

Time to enjoy the weekend.  I spent the day at home (as usual) working on my own home based business (check it out at AikiVentures.com) as well as my martial arts site (AikidoChesco.com) and now I'm going to enjoy the rest of the weekend training at the Aikido weapons seminar, and just relaxing the rest of the time.  Enjoy everyone!

Don't waste time getting ready


Something I heard listening to a webinar the other night was "Don't waste all of your time getting ready to begin". That is great advice, and so I've taken it to heart and today I am head down, sleeves rolled up going for it. Take the steps you need as I'm doing. Being able to work from home and have the lifestyle I want is worth it. Not that I'm even working nearly as hard or long as I did when sitting in that dull blue cubicle. Feel free to ask me how I did it. I'll check in later and let you all know what I got done.
