Your dreams need a catalyst.
Action is the spark that ignites your inspiration to manifest into reality.
When we take action, we are telling the Universe that we mean business. We are saying that we are ready and willing to do whatever it may take to make our dreams come true. It says that we are committed to showing up and doing the work.
Often we find ourselves at an impasse when it comes to actually doing something because we tell ourselves that we don’t know what to do.
Truth of the matter is, we do know what to do but we are scared to do it.
Whatever the reason for the fear, taking action anyway reduces that fear by the mere presence you bring to the task. When you are fully present to what’s in front of you, you replace fear with the excitement of experiencing something new.
And taking action is the ONLY way to get moving.
You will know right away if the action is bringing you closer to, or farther from, your goal by the way you feel.
If what you’re doing feels enjoyable then you know you’re on the right path. If you experience resistance or feel awful doing something, take a moment to reevaluate. Is the task truly pulling you away from where you want to go, or do you not want to do something because it’s “hard” or you “don’t know how”? There’s a big difference.
Taking action doesn’t always mean doing big, scary things every day. It simply means that you prioritize a task for the day that will help you move forward, and then do it.
Making a call, doing some research, sending an email, even getting outside for a walk can all be actions that move you closer to where you want to be.
And let go of the judgment that “you’re not doing enough”. Do what works for you.
The important part is to just do something. Anything. And do it today.
Your dreams will continue to reside in your head or your journal if YOU don’t take responsibility for them and start giving them life.
Any action will do.
Keep in mind that choosing to do nothing is still an action.
Where will your actions of today lead you tomorrow?
