How Would You Answer This Question?
11 May
Today I’m going to ask you something.
It’s a simple question, but powerful nonetheless. It can quickly snap you out of any rut and motivate in just a few seconds.
It works so well because we like to fool ourselves. We say, “I really want (fill in the blank), but it’s going to have to wait. Someday, I’ll make it happen.”
The truth is that it won’t happen, not if we continue following the same routine.
But that’s not fun to think about, so we rationalize and deceive ourselves and ultimately lock our hopes away in a pretty little basket called someday.
Today’s question is a wake-up call, if you let it sink in. So do yourself a favor and let it.
Ask: If I don’t change what I’m doing each day, will I ever get what I want?
Are your daily actions bringing you closer to your goals? If not, don’t expect things to change anytime soon.
It might feel good in the moment to believe in someday, but you can’t hide from the truth–you have to do something different to get something different.
If what you’re doing today isn’t going to bring you closer to what you want, stop fooling yourself. Start doing something different.
Hi Jason
Thanks for that,the question sounds simple enough but has the power to truly transform one’s life.
It is indeed remarkable the fact that we tend to complicate things,yet when asking ourself the question would shed so much light and clarity.
Great work
