“If you fail to plan, you are planning to fail”
I love this quote, think about this for a moment. You are about to get launched into space, and mission control is typing in your destination and for some reason there are no coordinates, which means, you are getting sent into space with no clear destination in mind.
This should spark a thought, as you begin to start asking yourself, “WHY?” You can’t get to your destination without coordinates (Purpose). Think about it, If you had an opportunity to get launched anywhere where would you land? Be a Dreamer! Dream Big! Start assessing your current situation and start creating goals. Goals allow you to stay humble and honest so you don’t get lost with unrealistic goals. Understanding that your wildest dreams are much closer than you think.
Don’t get caught in desert times, having purpose will allow you to have long term success and will create behaviors that will lead to results. Better results, include better behaviors!
Understanding the importance of ‘GOALS’ & your ‘WHY’ will add purpose to everyday life. You will make choices that will align with your WHY, you will see small changes in everyday life. Remember this has to be something that YOU want to do! Be the dreamer! Trust me you will open so many doors and become rich with opportunity.
Tim DiFrancesco
Chipping away one day at a time is a Motto that I love to live by, a motto shared by friend/mentor, Tim DeFrancesco, former Laker Strength & Conditioning Coach. His message was simple: Every day we have an opportunity to move with the ocean or stay stuck in a whirlpool. If I wanted to be anywhere it would be the ocean, constantly moving. If we are constantly moving forward then we are treading towards our goal. If we are stuck in a whirlpool; we are continuously rotating around behaviors that don’t get results.
Let the real work begin! Start setting goals! TAKE ACTION! DO WORK!
