GPS Your Success

Life has a way of pulling us in a thousand different directions, which makes it easy to stray from making ourselves a priority. Sometimes we may stop and wonder where the time has gone, and before we know it, another year has passed. Times like these can be discouraging, but it doesn't always have to be this way.

One of the easiest ways to keep yourself on track is by figuring out where you want to be in the future. I have come to the conclusion that figuring out where you want to be is similar to setting a specific location into your GPS before taking a trip. It's a guide to help you get to where you need to go. Of course, even with the best GPS it's still possible to get lost or be rerouted in another direction along the way. That's an unavoidable occurrence that happens to everyone on the road to success. The important thing to remember is that even during these detours, your destination still awaits your arrival. It's what you do now that counts. After all, present decision making determines the quality of your future. Your health, finances, and dreams depend on it.

Is THIS what you're waiting for?

Some of us need the perfect conditions in order to start a project or pursue a dream. If only we had enough money, or time, or resources, we could bring our dreams to life. Let's be honest--if we wait on the perfect moment to make our dream come true, chances are, it will never come. While it's true that certain times are better than others, there is rarely a "perfect time" when it comes to taking a risk or going down personal uncharted territory.

The Rare Road to Success

Starting a business, having a baby or going in for surgery, for example, are all very risky. Even equipped with the best plans, there's simply no way to predict the journey or the outcome. But one thing is for certain--if you stand around waiting for the perfect moment to appear, you'll be waiting forever. So now it's time to ask yourself, "What are you waiting for?"
