To Change You Don't Do, You Choose

I remember, asking an old friend - When are you going back to school? He said, "I'm not ready yet, maybe next year". The following year came and went and he was still where he was when I asked the question.

You may also have been in a situation where you knew you had to do something but felt unprepared, so you procrastinated.

What many fail to realise is that to change requires one to choose to, then follow through with that choice. Sometimes we know what we ought to do to see the change we desire, but we merely delay the process because we feel we still have the time. But more often, that delay takes way longer than it should and sometimes forever.

Waiting for the perfect time to do what you know you should do is like drinking a deadly poison and expecting to live.

"Someday is a disease that will take your dreams to the grave with you" 

-Tim Ferris

Once you make a choice of doing something that you know will change whatever you need in your life, it is the day you do all the tasks and exercises required.

That choice should be accompanied by doing. Waiting to be ready or for the perfect time is what makes geniuses look inferior to stupid individuals.

Many successful individuals are not the smartest on earth yet they succeed more than those who are smarter than them. Simply because they choose then immediately do.

That's what separates them from most.

The illusion that makes you believe you still have time is the demon you need to exorcise yourself from.

Choosing is doing. Separating these two is the start of a downward spiral to an unfruitful life.
