You will always miss all the shots you NEVER take is an old saying. Taking your “shot” every day is compulsory, seizing every opportunity makes great sense or at least you should make it compulsory in your life.
If you don’t have a go, then how are you going to succeed? How many times have you been in a group chat, an office, a workplace of any kind and all of you discussing what would have happened if you did this or that?
Don’t become a “coulda, woulda, shoulda” type of person, reflecting on past regrets and cursing the “perfect” set of circumstances never came to you so you could succeed.
Talking about it, and never getting around to taking action is something you need to get out of. Isn’t getting fit and healthy on most people’s to do lists but never gets done?
Commitment to taking action every day will bring you big and unexpected rewards.
Businesses never get anywhere if they JUST TALK about “possible” oil wells, they actually achieve things when they DRILL for oil. It may not mean a perfect hit first time, but if they keep trying knowing they are in the right area, chances are that good things will happen as long as they keep on going.
It’s the actual drilling that really dictates how far you have got, the results you have obtained and where you are.
You can do survey after survey, consultations on this on that, have endless meetings and put off yet more meetings into the future, it’s a way of life for many organisations/businesses etc. Most agree that this way of working never usually gets things done and destroys or dilutes great ideas and ambition.
Results matter-all of this always come from daily action, having a go even though you may not be 100% successful all of the time, eventually you will get it right.
Ready, fire, aim-in that order makes perfect sense.
