I've seen this quote / thought on a number of social media sites recently - it regularly crops up around the time that people will be making New Year resolutions, particularly those that are wellness related.
Of course, it makes perfect sense. A year from now might seem like a long way off and leave you feeling as though you have plenty of time to take action on your chosen goals, but the quote makes you think about adding a bit of immediacy to what you say you want to achieve. It adds a sense of urgency. It makes you approach things differently in a number of ways:
1) Think about this time last year. Time passes quickly. You've had 365 days to take action so are you now closer to, or further away from your desired situation with your health, wellness, energy and performance goals? My guess is that if you feel in a worse situation than you were a year ago you'll be even more motivated to make the best use of 2014.
2) Imagine what a huge difference you could make with any of your health and wellness objectives over the course of a whole year. Visualising more dramatic results will spur you on to regular positive action.
3) Think about how tiny a daily contribution would be required to ensure you get to where you want to be in 365 days time. Aim to end each and every day knowing you are closer to your goal.
4) Rather than wait a year to get what you want, give some thought to how soon you could get a great result, simply by practicing regular and targeted action. Knowing you can reach your chosen goals sooner rather than later will prompt you to get on with tackling them right away.
Whatever you do, the message is clear, don't delay.
1) Decide what you want to achieve this year
2) Take daily action towards success
3) Start right now
