116 - The Time Will Pass Anyway

Something I need to remind myself of regularly is that the time is going to pass one way or the other. What I mean by this is, the timeline is ticking away whether or not we do what we need to do. For example, if we want to get in better shape, start a business, scale a business, learn a skill, etc., and we put it off, that time is going to pass.   Say a decision was made to accomplish a goal, then three months later, we haven't even started. How far along would we be in that three months? Years can go by with us saying "I should get going on that" and we haven't moved the needle at all.   Once the time has passed, I would much rather look back and be further along. The hard part is convincing my procrastinating brain of this at the time.   "One inch of movement will take you way closer than a mile of intention." — David JP Phillips   "Learn to execute even if you don't feel like it." — Andy Frisella
