Time doesn’t stop. We kind of know that. So, don’t let time pass you by so quickly. Do what you want to do. Follow your passion.
(disclaimer – don’t drop everything and put yourself in financial difficulty if it’s not sustainable – start a side hustle/hobby).
Because one day… you’ll think, where have those years gone….
There’s a lot of people who say, I wish…. I had, was, etc….
But you know wishing doesn’t really work.
Working for it works.
Think like a… Monk. Yep, that’s the book I’ve been reading recently, and it’s a great book! Thoroughly recommend it.
It’s all about what’s on the inside – and how you think…. your mind, your passion, etc…
Sometimes I can be impatient. I want to work on things quickly. Figure out if they work or not. Lean startup methodology type of thinking.
And today’s Friday thought comes to you with some humour…
This week, and indeed next week see many pupils return to school…. let’s all remember that each child is different and have their own values.
I remember Albert’s quote of, ‘if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it’ll always be a failure’.
We want our children to… Think differently.
Sometimes, you just gotta get up and do it! We can easily think of excuses to delay…. do it tomorrow…. and you never end up doing it!
As you know, I love the content that Gary Vee puts out… and the below is my Friday Thought. Don’t delay, Do it Today!
My summer book… helps me provide today’s Thought!
You can only control what you can control. Don’t spend energy and time worrying about anything that isn’t in your control.
Quite a deep one today.
Mainly reflecting on a few things – personal, professional and one that has been hurting me for a few days. Well, since Wednesday night. Since, Nottingham Forest – who’d been in the Top 6 of the Championship since 26th December… fell to 7th place (and out of the play off places) at the 91st minute of the last game of the season.
My heart broke.
But – having reflected (and gone through the change curve) I strongly believe… that if certain things remain in place – and we improve on our weak areas, we will grow.
Growth in general – is uncomfortable. Because, if you are comfortable – are you learning and growing?
We all make life choices. There’s a lot that goes on… and we have to make choices. Sometimes they are right… sometimes, we’ll get them wrong…. BUT, we should be conscious of the choices we make. Are they right… where will that choice lead us… and more importantly, the choice you make today, will you be proud of it in the future?
There’s a lot that will effective our choices, some motivate us… some just steer us down that path.
Just remember… you have a choice.
It’s all about results, right? – a lot of people talk…. we can do this, we can do that… etc… but the important thing is being able to show it.
Be able to prove it… rather than promise.
Under promise – over deliver.
