Are You Spending Time Towards Your Goal Today?

I was sitting at the computer contemplating on what to write when I decided to take to twitter to see if I could get one or two inspirations to write about. I said to myself, we would just be here for two minutes and be gone. That is it. But by the time, I looked again, I had spent about 8 minutes on twitter trying to find the inspiration. And there it was, the inspiration I needed to write the article for the day.

I simply realized that whatever you do, understand that pushing a task for today to tomorrow never gets anything done. Whenever you have a task to accomplish, make it a part of you to simply just get it over with today. Tomorrow holds no special formula today does not already have. So when you have a plan to achieve a task, go for it and make sure it’s done now. Leaving a task meant for today for tomorrow is more like moving what you have right now to another later date. You are simply postponing your own life and achievement.

And what this simple action has taught me is to keep pushing on the tasks I have to accomplish. You might not be able to complete it all today, but make sure that every day does not go by without you taking a step towards achieving a part of the goal you have set out to achieve. Whether you go for it or not, time passes. The only constant thing in this life is the passing of time and if time would eventually pass, does it not make sense that we put in as much work as we can with the time that we have? Do not get me wrong. I do not mean to get overworked, but that whatever you plan to achieve today, you get it done today.

Having the mindset to get things done means that you can transfer such a mindset to various areas of your life. And when you are able to get one task done, then another and another, you are beginning to get it all right. And it just starts with a simple task at a time, nothing more, nothing less. And when that is done, you can keep pushing for more interesting and wonderful things. So many times, we make the mistake of assuming that doing great things means doing it all at once, but most times, it is the consistency of making sure that every day counts that makes the goals a reality.

And never imagine that everything would just go away if you do not put in the work. The work is the most important part of achieving your goal and you have to do it every day to move closer to what you want and further from what you do not want. A small task a day is how ants and other social animals build their homes. Their homes might look formidable, but the time it took is always what makes it what it is. So the question is “Are you spending time every day towards your goal?”

If you are spending time every day towards your goal, keep pushing, if you are yet to get started, start now. It takes hard work to get started and keep at it, but that is what you need to be that person you have always wanted to be. Now is never too late to get started. Take some time today and focus on that task. In the end, you would be happy you did. Thanks and God bless.
