Taking Action
Today I updated the signature line of the blog to reflect my biggest challenge. Like everyone else I can make excuses, and I have some great ones, but the fact is that success or failure is measured by the result and not by the quality of the excuse.
Today I start a new challenge, one of taking action every day.
I’ve just deleted the paragraph I had typed because it was full of excuses about why I’ve not been taking action, excuses where I attempted to slide out from taking responsibility for the lack of improvement in my fitness.
Typically my approach is all or nothing. My attention is always taken by the latest shiny toy/ idea/ project and I find it really hard to build anything permanent into my life. I take something up, run it ragged then toss it aside. My challenge then isn’t to change that, because that is my nature, but instead it’s to find a way of working with that which will achieve what I need to do.
