A tremendous component of being Strong in Spirit, Mind, and Body is our need and ability to ACT!
While the Mind is critical to managing and recognizing our emotions as discussed earlier - it is not enough to change our lives if we do not ACT as well!
Now - say you want to be in better shape - you do not have to go out and run a marathon your first day! Want to make more money - well put together that resume and send it out! Want better relationships?
Well just hoping and wishing will not make it happen!
You have to get into positive frame of mind and GET OUT THERE!
It is perfectly fine to take "Baby Steps" toward your Goals -- but the KEY is to TAKE THAT FIRST BABY STEP!
Woody Allen famously stated "80% of all Success is Showing Up" -- and it is True!
You have to "Show Up" - i.e ACT - to make any progress! and that includes the smallest of Baby Steps!
Start today - get a piece of paper and LIST out your Goals! Then - directly across from the Goal DEFINE an ACTION STEP you VOW to take IMMEDIATELY to put you on the path to that Goal!
You will be amazed at the POWER you will feel just identifying these Goals and then ACTING on them!
Remember the Poem "Gods in the Chrysallis" posted below (http://staystrong4life.blogspot.com/2008/06/gods-in-chrysalis.html) ??
Re-Read it NOW -- and TAKE THAT FIRST STEP! NOW!!
Get that paper and pen and Take Your Life Back!!
You will never feel so alive and in control!
Stay Strong!!
