Action is the ability to use your body to shape your outer environment by using your mind. You have the power to use your human form to do something and create something. You also have the power not to do something and not create anything. It all starts first in your mind a thought then an impulse to act. You can say action is the outward movement of our inner thoughts, dreams and habits into existence. Your actions determine your destiny. Not what you say but what you do. Action can be seen as the car that is going to drive you to the future you dream about. You can dream, you can plan, you can learn, you can think, you can believe but if you don’t act, nothing happens, nothing gets done without action.

 

Life doesn’t get better by wishing it gets better by acting. You need to start practicing the daily habit of taking small actions on your goals. If you start taking small daily actions on your goals over the next 5 years or 1826 days, the actions you take will compound and get you to your destination. Most people go through life first without goals and direction, so their daily actions become goalless. It is simply mathematics.

 

For example, your goal is to read 25 books in the next 12 months and the average book is approx. 250 pages. Simply put 25 x 250 = 6250 pages. This might seem like a massive number but if you take 6250 and divide by 365 days you only need to read 17 pages on average a day. This shouldn’t take longer than 30 minutes. Everyone has 30 minutes in a day to work on their goals if they made it a priority.

 

DISCIPLINED QUALITY ACTION

Most of our life is taken up by our basic needs to exist as a human on earth. From sleeping, eating, working, socializing, grooming, relaxing and everything else that fills our day up. In our fast-paced world 95 percent of our actions and reactions are automatic, unconscious responses to our physical and human environments. We get only about 5 percent of our spare time which we can devote to disciplined quality action. First break your major goal down into tasks and then make time in your schedule to devote yourself to focus on disciplined quality action. Once you start the daily habit of working on your goals you will see how much time you really waste on unimportant un-goal related activity. Start by increasing the amount of time you spend on disciplined quality action and less time on undisciplined unimportant activities. By scheduling time for disciplined quality action and making this a new habit to work consistently on your major goals, it’s just a matter of time before you realize your dreams.

 

CHANGE YOUR DAILY ACTIONS

Think back to your previous self from 10 years ago and think how much life has changed. What major actions have you changed in your daily life? Do you do the same things you did 10 years ago? Do you think the same? Do you have the same circle of friends? Is your career different? What have you created or done over the past 10 years? Did any of this happen overnight or did 10 years of change really take 3,650 days? You can agree that by looking back at your previous self, the one thing that changed everything was your daily actions. Your daily actions are one of the only things you really have complete control over.

 

You can control what time you wake up. You can. You can control what you eat, do, listen too, watch, read, socialize with. You can. You control how hard you work on your job or your relationship. You can. You can control most things in your daily life if you ever stopped and think about it. Start today or tomorrow if you will to start changing up your daily routine and doing things outside your comfort zone that will put you on the path of goal achievement instead of drifting away from your goals. To change your life, start first by changing your daily actions so you turn your life into habitual success achieving days.
