What Were You Going To Do Tomorrow?

ByMatthew

Today is Yesterday’s Tomorrow – Jim Rohn

Whatever you said you were going to do “tomorrow,” or “later,” or “soon,” is now due.

Just act.

However imperfectly, or even incompletely, do something.

Get some results, learn something about your actions:

Did it work? Great! Why?

Build on that information, that feed-forward.

Did it not work? Great! How did it not work? It what way did it work? (Just because you don’t like the outcome, doesn’t mean your action didn’t produce results . . . and results are what we want.)

Build on that information, that feed-forward.

Time marches on, are you going to sit and watch the parade or get moving?

  • Another Way Coaching Works

    ByMatthew

    I read and listen to a lot of self/personal development stuff. But all that reading and listening doesn’t amount to a hill-of-beans (speaking of which, has anyone ever seen an actual “hill-of-beans” and is one all that desirable?) without application.
