The Pain of Inaction
“We must all suffer from one of two pains; the pain of
discipline or the pain of regret. The difference
is discipline weights ounces while
regret weights tons.”
Jim Rohn 1930 – 2009 , American Entrepreneur,
Self-Author, Motivational Speaker
As I see it. . . . . . . .
The pain of inaction
Success and inaction . . . . both come
with a price.
Inaction . . . . is making the decision
to procrastinate.
Procrastination is making . . . . a choice.
The choice that’s made is . . . . the of
inaction which is to take the action is choosing not to act. The price of
inaction is enormous. It is carried forward in the form of pain in living a
life of regret for the things that you did not do . . . . and in lost opportunities.
Taking action takes self-confidence in your
decision making and in your abilities. You also have to have the mental
discipline to take calculated risks . . .
and to make choices.
In taking action some of your choices
will create breakthrough opportunities in your life . . . . while others may
have little or no impact . . . . And there will be some that you would like to
forget about.
Failing to take action subordinates the
choice to someone else to make the decision for you. You will lose the ability
to make your choices and to choose your actions.
When it’s
time to take action you have to step up . . . . and take the best actions possible
in the conditions that you find yourself in.
The pain of
regret for your inaction is carried forward and can become emotionally draining
on you. The discipline to succeed . . . . is making choices . . . .
Taking action
has a price but there is peace of mind in knowing that we’re in control of your
choices . . . . your actions . . . . your the results . . . . and in your
future.
The pain of
inaction is enormous . . . .
