So many people are obsessed with waiting, They procrastinate. There is no sense of urgency in anything they want to do in life.
Do you think you will live forever or something?
Our lives are incredibly short. And if you truly want to own a business, Or have a nice house, Or make new friends. You need to get started on that stuff now!

Just Go!

Google is this magical thing; You can look up how to obtain certain goals if you aren't sure. Sometimes the pathway to our goals can be a little confusing and random. Look it up and get started on the first step FAST!
Don't worry too much about what you do or don't' have. You'll never have a perfect moment for anything.

What Will "Older You" Think?

You may feel unmotivated because you know you won't get results right away. But What if you could talk to your future self a year from now, Five years from now? I'm sure that you, would be grateful that you started today. And little actions each day add up. A workout here and there may not seem to be helping. But in the long run, you will become more in shape; Your weight may start to go Down. And you'll get the weight loss that you wanted.
This goes for all goals that you have too
Many people are obsessed with the final result, The big actions. But the reality is the small daily activities, and the consistency adds up more than any massive move. In the long run.

You Can Change Your Mind

A lot of people are convinced that once they make decisions, they have to stick with it for the rest of their lives....
That's just so silly
YOU HAVE A RIGHT TO CHANGE YOUR MIND!

If you decide tomorrow you don't like the path you are on; You can change it. And you don't owe an explanation to anyone.
Some people feel afraid of changing their path. Sometimes it's because of the extra responsibility associated with their decision. Other times They are concerned with what people will think of them.

Just Roll WIth It

Sometimes when things aren't working out, We know deep down it's the right decision. At that point, Just roll with it.
Earlier this year my biggest source of income, My Drop shipping store, Changed it's payout method OVERNIGHT. My largest source of income, Became a crippling debt. I was left in over 9,000 Worth of debt due to purchasing customers products. Some people may have seen that was a sign that being self-employed wasn't meant to be. (I was only self-employed for 5 Months At this point).
But I knew I still wanted to be self-employed, so I stuck with my decision and rolled with it anyways. And things ended up working out, Steemit bailed me out of debt. And they are still gradually paying me the 14,000 They owe me. Sometimes when your choice is crazy, you gotta roll with it. I bet most of us on Steemit can relate to this. I've had so many people tell me that "Steemit is a scam." I try and educate them on it, and they don't believe me. But deep down I know this platform is going to take off. So I try and invest as much as I possibly can into the platform. Heck early on, I even put 600 of my own money on the platform! Everyone told me that I wouldn't get it back. But when the price went to 2 or 3 I took it out. Doubling or tripling my money!
Listen to your gut! Roll with your decisions despite naysayers!

Conclusion

So many people let life slip through their fingers. WHY ARE YOU HERE!? Why are you on this planet? Go for what you want, While you can! Life is short!

Exactly, in the end there is never the perfect time or perfect opportunity. When we decide we want to do something, that moment right there is the best time to take action toward it!

I need to be more like this!

I love your posts. And most of all I like the faith you have in Steemit! I admire your courage and fingers crossed maybe one day I will say "Enough, it's time for living here and now, and not tomorrow like you do!"

Your post provokes and I like it.

Especially​ the​ part of changing our mind.


A bible verse​ comes in my mind:
When I​ was young I​ was thinking like a ​child but as I​ grew up my thoughts changed as well.

It's​ not the literally interpreted but it matches the point.

Wedon't​t need to stick with older decisions we are free to make a turn to the left or right because​ now we are seeing better.


As you said.
Life is short, we should use our time wisely

procrastination is my way of life. haha

Love it. Lots of time we say "I'll do it tomorrow, I'll start tomorrow or when I'm ready". TOMORROW is your biggest ENEMY because it starts with today. Today is the day. Most of us wait till tomorrow, which never comes.
"JUST DO IT" says it all and that is the way I try to live my life. And yes, we can't think of what others think because that is not their life. Everyone has their own dreams and paths of life and if you are not happy, then you really have to change something in your life or it will never change.
Thank you for the tips and this great post. Upvoted and following to see more of your posts.

@kaylinart - True. While I personally am fairly ok at planning my vision (for a project or life in general), breaking it down into actionable tasks and then executing them, many people get stuck at various stages and can never take action.
As the quote goes :

"Every day spent in procrastination is a day you spend worrying about that thing. Get it done and move on with your life!"
I think this is exactly what you have said in your lovely blog. Thanks for sharing. Upvoted full
