Stuck in a rut – going in circles

bythemethod | February 29, 2008

There was a wise old man where I first started to work – well really he was a little obnoxious and seemed to hate everyone. However he used a saying that has always stuck with me.

“If things don’t change – they will stay as they are”.

Of course it was meant to be nonsense but in some strange way it has a grain of truth in it. If you are keen to see your life change you must do something different. If you don’t change then things will stay just as they are right now.

If you have had enough of being overweight or being in debt or not having the life you want then the only way to make things work for you is to do something differently.

It’s the old rule of cause and effect if you keep causing the same way then you will be effecting the same way. If you do tomorrow what you did today then you will get the same results from tomorrow as you got today.

So if you want things to be different you have to do something different to make it happen. What is it going to be?

    The interesting this is the key is to actually DO

    The interesting this is the key is to actually DO SOMETHING. Ninety Eight percent of people do not effect change or accomplishment because they simply do not make a decision. So if you want to effect change in your life and create a successful future – make the choice to do so. Do not sit back and wait – do not procrastinate – JUST DO IT!
