Deal with problems in a timely manner and you can prevent them from causing other problems. Seize opportunities in a timely manner and you enable them to spawn other opportunities.

The sooner you act, the more leverage your action has. Today is preferable to tomorrow, and tomorrow is preferable to next week.

As long as you’re making the effort, you might as well get the highest possible value from it. The earlier you start, the better.

Procrastination not only dilutes the effectiveness of your work. It also prolongs the time you have to spend knowing the work must be done.

Dispense with that negative dynamic and act quickly. Enjoy the positive benefits of making good, prompt use of your time.

When you identify something that must be done, get going on it. Gain the most from what you do by doing it in a timely manner

How do you energize yourself in the present? Take action that’s oriented toward improving the future.

How do you sustain that elevated energy level? Continue focusing and acting to create a better future.

Without the vision of a positive future, it’s difficult to get yourself to do anything. But when you’re immersed in the very real possibilities and in bringing them to life, you can develop unstoppable momentum.

You don’t ever have to be stuck where you are. Because you can always be working and living in the service of your vision for the future.

What’s even better is, there’s no limit to what that vision can be. So you’re free to craft the specific vision that’s most compelling to you.

To successfully move forward, first clearly look forward and see all the details of where you most want to go. Create a powerful, desirable destination and you’ll have more than enough of what it takes to get there.

Put yourself where you belong. Go with what you know is right for you.

Whatever you most love to do is what you will do best. Places where you love to be, and people you love to be around, will bring out your highest level of effectiveness.

Put yourself in those places and get yourself around those people as much as you can. Be where you belong and you’ll be your very best.

When something feels right, that means it is right for you. Pay attention to your authentic feelings, and follow where they lead.

It’s not frivolous or selfish to do what you love. When you’re doing what you love, you’re able to give the best of who you are.

Be the way you want to be, feel the way you like to feel and do the things you wish to do. Get yourself where you truly belong, and live your own special greatness.

t’s natural and understandable to become discouraged. The feeling of discouragement is normal and healthy in response to adverse, disappointing developments.

But as intensely discouraged as you may be, you never have to let it define who you are. You can choose to be a person experiencing discouragement rather than the walking, breathing embodiment of discouragement.

That’s a key distinction. Because it reinforces to you the truth that you have power over your discouragement.

Discouragement can all too often be a part of your experience. Yet it doesn’t ever have to become a part of who you are.

Who you are is someone with values, dreams, skills, opportunities, and resources. At any time, amidst any degree of discouragement, you can make use of all those things to work your way beyond whatever you’re experiencing.

You can feel the pain of discouragement, then take steps to transform that pain into inspiration, determination, and effective action. Though you may at times go through discouragement, you never have to stay there

Are there things you do every day out of habit that don’t accomplish anything? Let them go.

Are there choices you make again and again that you always come to regret? Allow yourself to choose differently.

Life is difficult enough without you needlessly adding to the difficulty. You’re in control of your own thoughts, decisions, and actions, so make smart use of that control.

In every situation, ask yourself this question. What, right now, would bring the most enduring value to you, to those you care about, to life?

Answer honestly, thoughtfully, and follow up your answer with action. Inject purposeful intention into your experience at every turn.

Escape the regrets and the long stretches of habitual ineffectiveness. Live with heightened awareness of all the good you can do, and you’re sure to make much of it happen

Don’t merely see what’s going on. Be what’s going on.

Look for how you can participate in a meaningful and significant manner. Then immerse yourself in giving unique value to what’s happening.

Keep yourself aware and informed about the world around you, but not just for the sake of amusement. Engage yourself in making positive contributions.

Though you obviously can’t do everything, you always can do something. Generously and thoughtfully determine what that is, and get yourself involved.

You’re at your best when you act, when you interact, when you join in, listen, speak, commit your time and skills. Doing so is beneficial for others and great for you.

Consider how you can be a part of what’s going on in a helpful and productive way. Participate, and expand upon the richness of life.
