Get to Work

Nothing has ever gotten done, by standing around doing nothing. Anything that gets done is because someone decided to take action. Laundry does not get folded and put away by itself. Beds do not get made, by themselves. Weights do not lift themselves at the gym. Houses and buildings do not get built by people standing around looking at blueprints. Simple or complicated chores and activities take work and effort to get done.

The same concept applies to your life and goals. There is no easy way around it. Effort, action, and work are some of the biggest and most important ingredients when it comes to reaching your goals or making necessary changes.

When you decide to take action and put in work on yourself or your goals, there are several things that will happen. First, you start making progress toward your goals. Second, you begin to grow. Third, you begin to develop new habits and character.

When you decide to take action, you automatically move toward your goals. As soon as you take the first step, you close the distance between where you were and where you want to get.

Growth and development are natural reactions to putting in effort and work. When you begin working on yourself and working toward your goals, you will begin to develop new habits, greater character, and trade old choices for new ones that will benefit you and your goals.

Pay attention! The sooner you get to work, the sooner you will achieve what you set out to do. The time will pass. When it does, either you can wonder where it went, or you can put the time you have to use with intentionality.

There is a saying that says, “There is no elevator to success, you have to take the stairs.” The sooner that you start climbing, the sooner you will arrive at your destination. My suggestion is that you Get to Work, sooner rather than later.
