“Just Doing It” Is the Key

Everybody has lots in mind, lots to do. So why can’t we all be a Steve Jobs?

Well, first we have to mention that we live in a rapidly-paced world. Many people can think that they don’t have enough time, and I also feel this way. Could I sleep less and work more hours? This is not the case!

Proactivity has a lot to do with this. There have been times when I don’t have the energy to accomplish even half of my daily goals. Everybody’s situation can be so different yet similar at the same time. Stress and difficult moments will affect your proactivity. So the questions can be…

How can we always take the next step? How can we have that THRIVING force which can bring us one step closer to our goals?

There are many videos regarding this subject but what I think is common amongst all of them is that you need to possess a free mind — a clean canvas that has a pinch of positivity.

Now I do have to remind myself of this, especially during the times when I see rough days. What I say to myself is:

  • What do you have to do?
  • What do you need to do?
  • What do you want to do?
  • How are you going to achieve this?
  • When is your time limit?

And when you have it all planned out, JUST DO IT!

In my case, having my "to do" list all planned out and on paper helps me to visually see myself accomplishing these goals. It's a little step to be more organized and it does help. Would you also try this out? If you already have, has this also helped you? You need to find what suits you and your personality, in the end, everyone is different.

Perhaps staying motivated seems harder than it is…but that is truly my strongest advice. When you already know what your activities may be and for some reason, you are having a bad day, you must understand that it is okay — just do it!

Do not stress yourself about the results, just begin and give it your all.

For example, many people desire to have a fitter body. Well, do not let your current situation hold you back. Start in your own house — do not think that you only can do exercise in a gym. Just start doing it! Start slow and steady and before noticing it, you will feel so much better. You will be able to do more and more intense workouts.

In conclusion, this is the most important piece of advice I can share with you. For me, starting something is the most difficult and tedious part of the process but once you have begun, enjoy the ride.

If it's a new hobby, course, side hustle, etc...take the first step. Saying that you will finally start tomorrow is a bad motto of life. Why wait for the tomorrow if you can start now? Do you have any fixer-uppers in your house? Buy what you need now so that expense can motivate you to complete these tasks! Do you want to have a better garden? Grab on to that water hose and create a new hobby!

The world has so much to offer and we are the only ones who can motivate us to take advantage of all the opportunities there are. In my perspective, we can never stop learning.

Think about the positive moments and even if you have bad times, either in the personal or professional sphere, take them as a considered life lesson and just do it!

Thank you for reading.
