The Power Of Doing

So I know you’ve heard plan, plan, plan, measure execute. But I have a new slogan for you today. Do, do, do and do more sit back to do more get up to do more. It’s not that planning is bad, but most of the times it’s just a excuse to do nothing and fantasize about our success. So keep in mind while you are planing and planing to plan your competition is doing. Or maybe planning and doing at the same time. So how about you do something right now.

Do That “thing Now
That thing that you are planing to do couple hours later today “when you have more light on the issue” how about do it RIGHT NOW. And no this is not a advert for Nike “if you are from Nike marketing team feel free to send me a check.” But joke apart this kind of now mentality v/s will do later will make you happier. Seriously, I could say more productive, laser focused bla bla, but really people do things so they can be happy or feel happy.
Don’t Sabotage Yourself
The problem is the person sabotaging you happiness is you. So far if you want to stop reading this article and go do that “thing” I’ll be completely happy. If you are still sticking around keep reading. Just a warning I’ll not get nicer and wipe your procrastination tears away. Se sometimes you need to trust yourself more. The main reason of not doing something is fear and anxiety of not being perfect or missing steps in the process.
Trust The Person On The Inside
Well you have it on the inside of you. Sometimes the creative process of winging a task by the seat of your pants is a lot better and more interesting. Best outcome you will have a story to tell. Whatever your task is it will need to be sold eventually. Now humans love stories. You can sit here and tell me all day what is your RPU, MRR(don’t wary if you don’t know these)and other similar unknown and dry acronyms. I will probably remember some numbers for a half hour and then forget about you.
Tell Me Your Story
However if you tell me your nerve raking story of how you started your venture and almost didn’t make, but by some miracle you became a success, I am more likely to never forget you and your “thing.” So my advice is start doing and document since people are really interested in your story and you.
Screw The Investors AKA Sharks
Eventually if you keep doing this long enough you will not need the people that understand the acronyms AKA investors. So start doing that “thing” that you’ve been planing for years TODAY or all your planing maybe irrelevant tomorrow. Also there is no guarantee of tomorrow. Today you are here and able to do the work you like.
