Decision
Founder - Editor - Host
"Ever notice that 'what the hell' is always the right
decision?"
said Marilyn Monroe. This is a quick glimpse into the belief
system of a woman who was massively successful in her time.
The major characteristic of successful people: The ability to
make a decision to take action!
Decision is the opposite of procrastination. It is not done
meekly or without clear examination of the possibilities. You
must develop the ability to assess the situation quickly,
apply layers of self-confidence, look at the risk factor, and
move with unswerving ability toward a goal. When you have
determined that a decision will give you the results you
desire, set up a plan of action with measurable milestones, so
you can assess whether your decision needs modification along
the way.
Take action in all that you do. Look at your options,
identify where the pitfalls may lie, determine your strategy
for turning the pitfalls into opportunity, and forge onward
with the belief that you will succeed.
Walt Disney wrote, "I always like to look on the optimistic
side of life, but I am realistic enough to know that life is a
complex matter."
Complex though it might be, you still have the ability to
create massive success, despite the challenges that may
arise. Have faith in your ability to ride those challenges
like a cowboy on a bronco. When you are prepared and have
determination, the ride will fill you with the adrenaline
necessary to win. If you meet challenges along the way, seek
the support of organizations and people who have the skills
and knowledge you need in order to achieve your success. Make
connections with significant players. The time invested in
seeking out and creating these bonds will be worth the
effort. Starting projects without decision on a strategy for
success is a waste of time and effort. Decide to move forward
and to keep on it until you win.
