If You Want to Change Your Life, You Need to Take Action
We all want something to be true about our lives. Each one of us has a dream. But most people don’t live a life where their dreams are priority. Sometimes people say it’s because they are a realists. Others say they do not have the time or money to make their dreams come true.
We know if someone is chasing a dream or not. Because their actions show what is important to them. Their actions show us if they want their dream to come true.
“Action expresses priorities.” — Mahatma Gandhi
If heir dream isn’t a priority, they won’t be do taking action to see it come true. But this isn’t true of you and me. We want our dreams to come true.
We must take action to see them come true an to change our lives.
Do You Want Your Life to Change?
The beginning of a new year is always a time of reflection for people. No matter who you are, we tend to look back before we look forward. Most people don’t change anything after looking back. However, the people who do, are the ones who are going to see change in their lives.
My question: Do you want your life to change?
Was this year a good year? Did you accomplish all you hoped for? Or where there disappointments and regrets? It’s ok if there were some disappointments. After all, we cannot change the past, but we can change our future. If you do want your life to change in 2019, remember this:
“Vision without action is merely a dream. Action without vision just passes the time. Vision with action can change the world.” — Joel A. Barker
For our lives to change, we need a little vision. This is why I think it is important to take a year end inventory of our lives. And why I think having a life plan is so important. Both of these resources help us to acknowledge where we are, and to dream of the future.
For me, my dreams are the vision for the way I want to live my life. I do everything I can to help make those dreams come true. And more often than not. They do.
Are You Going to Become A Person of Action This Year?
Last year, I must admit, I lost my way. Of all the things I could have been doing, I didn’t follow through very well. I didn’t take action in the areas I wanted to see changed. But that was last year, and this year will be very different.
I see a future where I am living out my priorities. And because of how poorly some of those areas went this year, I am more motivated than ever to see them change.
