Nike sure hit it right on the head – Just Do It! Three powerful words that not only changed their marketing sales figures but maybe even a generation of awareness. Getting into the action part of our lives instead of sitting around and talking, planning, and worrying about what to do or how to do anything. These three words will compel you to do just about anything you set your intentions on.
I’ve been working on being a coach for a good part of two years with no steady clients. I’ve immersed myself in books, classes and different meditation techniques. But the only thing that ever gets me to move forward is the Just Do It attitude. Enough learning already, get to it and just do it! Once I get into this frame of mind, I feel unstoppable and able to conquer any worries or fears that may stand in my way.
How does this keep me in shape?
For starters it gets you moving! You have to block out all your fears and your perceptions and decide to go for it. This can be handy when accomplishing your weight loss goals or starting healthier eating patterns. Part of “Just Do It” has a curiosity and a willingness to make mistakes. It’s a mindset that helps you keep on even when the tough get going. Think back to a time in your life when you “just did it”what happened how did it feel? What was the outcome? More often than not you learned from the first steps how to take the next and the next.
Take action: Just Do It!
What have you been thinking about, reading about or dreaming about that you have not been able to get around to or see yourself doing? From that pick just one aspect of that dream or goal and JUST DO IT. See what happens. Was the outcome what you expected? Did some of your fears disappear? Send me a post and tell me what happens when you decide to JUST DO IT!
