Motivational Power Quote

 Getting Started is The Secret of Getting Ahead

“The secret of getting ahead is getting started. The secret

of getting started is breaking your complex overwhelming

tasks into small manageable task and then

starting on the first one.”

Mark Twain 1835 - 1910, American author and humorist

As I see it. . . . . . . .

Getting started is the secret ahead of getting ahead

The secret of getting ahead is the mindset of taking the actions that are required to pull you in the right direction.

Skills, motivation or desire by themselves will not make you a success. Success is achieves when you combined . . . . your skills . . . . motivation . . . . and desire into your activities and actions. By combining your talents you create the forward momentum that will push your forward into the direction of your goals.  

As you move forward you will encounter many situations that will have to be managed properly to keep you moving in the right direction. You will encounter situations that at first glance would seem overwhelming; that you feel could derail your forward progress. When confronted with a situation break the conditions drown into manageable tasks . . . . and work on the smaller tasks until you have successfully taken an overwhelming situation . . . . and resolved the condition one pierce at the time. 

Managing overwhelming situations is in your attitude of how do you eat an elephant? The answer is that question is you eat the elephant one bit at a time. Big issues or conditions are resolved one step at a time.

Getting started is the secret of getting ahead  . . . . focus on the road in front of you and continue to make progress one step at the time in the direction of your goals.

Motivational Power Quote

Doers Get It Done as the Non-Doer is Watching 

“A non-doer is very often a critic - - that is someone who

sits back and watches doers, and then waxes philosophically

about the doers are doing, it’s easy to be a critic,

but being a doer requires effort, risk and change.”

Dr. Wayne Dyer, Self-Help Author and Speaker

As I see it. . . . . . . .

Doers get it done as the non-doer is watching

The doers in life . . . . get the job done when it has to be done. They won’t stand around making excuses or . . . . just keep talking about what has to be done. Doers find a way to just get the job done.

The doers get it done by getting started and . . . . follows through until the task is successfully done.

A doer will say to themselves . . . . why not, why not me and why not right now. The doer is a forward thinker that pushes forward . . . . with an air of self-confidence searching out the successful conclusions.   

The critic can find a million reasons . . . . why something can’t be done.  They will try to convince everyone around them that will listen to them

. . . . that the task is impossible to do successfully. The critic motto is it can’t be done so why should I even try.

The critic just makes excuses and complains.

The doer just makes progress and moves forward.

The biggest difference between a doer and critic . . . . is the doer is getting it done successfully. While the critic a bystander and watching the doer successfully completing the task. The critic will still be saying it can’t be done or how they would have done it differently.   

Doers get it done as the non-doer is watching . . . . When you need something done find a doer.
