Decide: How To Avoid Disaster
Where do you want to be in a year? In five years? In ten years?
Is what you’re doing now — the way you’re living, your friends,
your habits, your focus — Are all of these things moving you in
the direction of your goals? How does it look?
Are your habits the kinds of habits that the person you’re going
to be in two years would have? Are your friends or associates,
or whatever you call the people you hang out with the types of
people the you you’re going to be in five years will want to
know and be with?
What about the things your mind gets hung up on? Your focus. Do
you even know what your focus is?
If you and I were sitting together right now (and pretend we
are) What would your answer be if I asked you where you’re
going? What are you focused on accomplishing or achieving? You
are certainly focused on something. Either consciously or your
subconscious has chose something for you. Which is it in your
case? Did you choose or has the world chosen for you? Have you
taken 10 minutes and made a conscious decision about what the
definition of your life is going to be? That’s really all it
would take. In reality, even less than that. Think about it.
Have you ever been so fed up with something that at one point
you just decidethat’s it, no more. I’ve had it! How long did it
take you to come to that decision? The real truth is you did it
in an instant. It may have taken you years to get to the point
where you decided to decide but, the decision itself was made in
an instant. A second. You have that same force, power and
ability to get yourself moving in the direction of your choosing
at any given moment if you would but decide to do so.
Don’t be one who gets ten years further down the road and be
left thinking, wondering, wishing you had decided to do
something. Do it now. Decide.
A special note to my friends.
I appreciate you all. Thanks for putting up with me. I
appreciate each one of you for allowing me to sharpen you, and
even more than that I’m thankful for the constant sharpening
stones you are to me. You know who you are. You’re the one’s I
hear from one way or another each week with your “Clyde, you’re
insane” Emails and calls. You’re the one’s who know and
understand why I enjoy hearing that statement. Or the far to
infrequent “good one” comments. I do what I do for you. I hope
it helps. I’m glad it does.
I want you to know that more and more I’m feeling that it’s our
time, yours and mine, to do something GREAT. We’ve played around
at these lower altitudes and attitudes long enough. It’s time to
step out away from the herd. It’s time to fly. This past week I
scribbled this note to myself “it’s time you went out and did
something GREAT”. If you’re in this group, this inner circle,
I’m glad you are. I’m going to need to hear from you more than
ever in these coming days and weeks as we take on this new and
rising wave.
If you’re not in this group what are you waiting for? Join in.
Participate. We need you. What you’re holding back could be the
one piece of information that we’re all needing. I challenge you
to ’step up and step out’ this week. Wade in. Let me know what’s
on your mind. Put it out there. We need your help. I need your
help.
It’s time you went out and did something great! It’s time to do
that thing you’ve been wanting and getting ready to do. It’s
your turn. It’s your time. No more waiting.
Live some. Love some. Learn some. Everyday.
