Ready… Set… GO!

“Thank you for calling GIH where we instigate growth one call at a time where we utilize antiquated technology to deliver 3-minute leadership lessons every day of the week!  This is message #67 and I am Aaron Havens. 

Mark Twain put it this way "the secret to getting ahead is getting started”

Wake up. Put on your shoes. Slam that coffee. Jump in the shower. Send that email. Start that thing. It doesn't have to be perfect. 

What are you waiting for? 

Are you just riding the momentum of a life right now? 

If so, how is that working for you? 

Maybe you're in a sweet spot and everything is going great. Excellent! Keep surfing on that wave. However, if there's a bit of discontent in you, a bit of dream left of what could be, the secret sauce is getting started. Just go for it. It doesn't need to be perfect. It just needs to be attempted. Send that email, have that conversation, present your big idea. Passive inaction could be the killer of all. But even the smallest of actions could get momentum, moving, which will demolish everything in its way.

My friends, where today do you need to just get started? And what's holding you back? Is it fear? Is it laziness? Is it motivation? Is it clarity? Maybe today we can look at every decision we have with one of three responses. “Yes” “No”, or “Not Yet”, all three of these responses could be wisdom. But taking a minute to have to decide which appropriate response is called upon for you that particular decision, could be the difference between being stuck, and achieving greatness.

When presented with decisions today, if we will pause long enough to consider

1. Is this something I should go for

2. Should I pass on this

3. Or let’s say not yet and let it marinate

This filter will give you permission to live life on your terms, and go to sleep tonight, being proud of your decisions.  Knowing you took action and called the shots today.

Thanks for calling in today.  Tune in tomorrow for a fresh new topic.  At the sound of the beep:

I want to hear where you feel stuck.  
Where do you need to make a decision or make a call and what has been holding you back.
