Do It Or Don’t Do It

There is a big difference between doing something and trying to do something. Do you understand the differences between trying and doing??You either do something, or you don’t do it.?

There is an excellent quote from the Star Wars movies from the Jedi Master Yoda. In his effort to influence the mindset of his apprentice Luke Skywalker, Yoda encourages and challenges Luke with this epic quote: “Do, or do NOT. There is NO try.”

When we say were are “trying,” we don’t necessarily have to do anything. We can think about doing it and then do nothing.

For example, where are you “trying”?to improve?

• Are you “trying”?to get in shape, or are you getting in shape?
• Are you “trying” to eat healthier, or are you eating healthier?
• Are you “trying” to live a more fulfilling and happier life, or are you living a more fulfilling and happy life?
• Are you “trying” to improve your selling skills, or are you improving your selling skills?

By getting into the habit of putting ideas and decisions into action, we are in a better position to achieve the results we desire.

Maybe it is time to stop trying. Here are three suggestions to make this practical for you:

1. Monitor how you use the word “try.” Overall, “try” is a useless expression that accomplishes nothing. You either do it, or you don’t. However, in some contexts, it can be the trigger that propels people to act.
2. Stop waiting until the conditions are perfect. If you are waiting for everything to be perfect for getting started, you will be waiting forever. Things will never be perfect. There will always be something that is not right or could be better. So it would be best if you took action now and made adjustments as you move forward.
3. Stop?overthinking?things.?When we overthink things, we start to get paralysis of analysis. We begin to analyze things to the point that we cannot move forward.

Goals and dreams can inspire you to build a more meaningful life than what you have now. But goals and dreams without taking action are just goals and dreams. So if you want to achieve your goals and dreams, you must shift from trying to doing.

Action is the foundational key to all success. Happy Thursday!
