When you are trying to get it, you have to do whatever it takes to get it done. You have to take advantage of the opportunities when they present themselves and when they aren't there, you have to create them. It's 6am on a Saturday and I am inside of Starbucks writing and designing web pages. Not to mention that I have to be at work @9:30am. I woke up around 3:30 am and I couldn't go back to sleep. I figured, why not take advantage of all of the extra time I have. I got up, got ready for work then cleaned up the house and off to Starbucks I went. Now let’s be real for a second. By the time I got to Starbucks, I became very, very, very sleepy. As a matter of fact, I am sleepy right now. If there is any misspelling or grammatical errors, you know why.
In order to get things done in your life you have to put in some time. Whether it be before your day gets started or after it ends. I don't care what it is. It can be your marriage-you have to make time for the one that you love, let me rephrase that-you should want to make time to spend with that special person. It can be your dream-you have to put in work to develop the idea so that it can become reality. Yes, you will have some sleepless nights and some rough times, but for some odd reason when you are sacrificing for the good, it somehow feels so good. You may complain about how early you have to get up or how little sleep you've had but you complain with a smile. It's one of those feel good pains-just like birth. It's hard on a woman for nine months or so and then it's even worse the day of the actual birth. But then once it's over with, the world seems like a different place. Life is more angelic. Life is more beautiful than it was before and they never think about the pain that they endured. All that's on their mind is how much this little person means to them-AMAZING!
This is how you have to be with everything you want in life. You have to endure the pain to enjoy the happiness of your success. Success is not defined by the amount of money you make but by the accomplished goals that you achieve. You have to do what makes you happy. Once you realize that your happiness is one of the most important things in the world, you will be able to get more done in your life. Don't wait for the first of the year to come and then start on something-START NOW! The beginning doesn't always have to have a defined starting point; it can begin right now!
