How to get control of your life by taking immediate action.
Take action right now! Take a moment and write down the three most important things in your life than you want to change. Things that you know you need to do, but something has been holding you back. Do you want to loose weight? Do you want to improve your diet? Do you want to be happier? Do you want to advance your career? Do you want to improve your relationships? Do you want to quit smoking? Do you want to start that business?

Now, take three pieces of paper, one for each change you want to make and write the change at the top. Make two columns on each page. Label the first column with “Pain”. Label the second column with “Pleasure”.

In the “Pain” column, list all of the bad things and feelings that will happen if you do not make this change. Will you loose pride in yourself? Will your health suffer? Will other people be ashamed of you? Will it affect your status? Will it affect your relationships? Will you have wasted your life? How does this make you feel?

In the “Pleasure” columns list all of the good things and feelings that will happen if you do make the change. What will be the ultimate outcome of this change? How will you improve? Will you be healthier? Will you we wealthier? Will you have pride? Will others be proud of you? How does this make you feel?

Now, take action! Do something right now! Not later….NOW!!!! Take an action toward each of your 3 major changes. This may be making a roadmap to the result. This may be getting help. Call the gym and schedule an appointment with a trainer. Do some research about that training program that will help your career. Get a book on how to improve your relationships. Do something. Do it now!

It will feel great! Once you take that first step, you have momentum. What actions are you going to take tomorrow?

"If you don't act now while it's fresh in your mind, it will probably join the list of things you were always going to do but never quite got around to. Chances are you'll also miss some opportunities."-Paul Clitheroe
