Taking Action - Lorena Acosta

This week, Lorena Acosta?was featured on the cover Kind Magazine. As?a personal brand evangelist that helps leaders, founders, and business owners reassess their online voices by becoming THE voice in their industry, her tagline is?Be Busy Being Awesome.?

Being busy is another way of saying taking action. But how do you do it while still remaining awesome? Let’s take a closer look.

Taking Action

When you don’t take things personally but look at things from the eyes of an observer, that’s when you’ll be able to take full and complete action. The only way to totally transform is to take action. Don’t lose sight of yourself as the star of your own movie, and even though you write your own script, it’s your choice if you stick to it or not. You play the starring role, you’re the director and the producer in one. In other words, you’re in complete control.

It’s important to keep in mind that although you are taking action, you must also enjoy this wondrous ride called life. Take action, but leave time to smell the roses. Take action, but be there for a friend. Take action, but allow yourself to let loose. Take action, but lend a helping hand. Take action, but empower another. Take action, but don’t be afraid to ask for help when needed. Take action, but don’t burn yourself out. Take action, but carve out family time. Take action, but take time to listen. Take action, but show your gratitude. Take action, but make time for prayer or meditation. Take action in your unique way.

Imagine for a moment you’re planning to set out on your?transformational journey but quickly become fearful and decide not to begin. You will NEVER know what could have been, or what might have been. It would be your journey to nowhere. That’s why you must take massive action in order to fulfill everything your heart desires.?

Don’t be one of those who talk a big game, but never follow through. Your actions define what you do, not what you say you might do. Yet if you sit still and take no action at all, that’s how you will be defined.?

The moment you decide to take action is the moment you’ll begin to change the world. Do you know how empowering that is? If you ever wanted to know how to begin to change the world, it really is that simple. Think about these words again. The moment you decide to take action is the moment you’ll begin to change the world. Don’t sit idle any longer. Put your heart and soul into the change you want to be, and the change you want to make.

“Success comes from taking the initiative and following up… persisting… eloquently expressing the depth of your love. What simple action could you take today to produce a new momentum toward success in your life?” -Tony Robbins

Today, get in the habit of going after whatever it is you desire. If you desire something but only think of it, there’s no way it will come to you like magic. If there’s something you want; a new car, a better career, or a new relationship—get after it. Stop worrying over it and go after it with pure confidence. Visualize that it’s yours even before you have it. Focus on the emotion of how it feels to have it without any conditions to get it. Treat it with care before it’s in your possession. Control your own luck and watch the pieces fall into place.

Your purpose needs you to take action. Your unique ability needs your permission to change the world. Your incredible passion is begging you to let it out of its cage. Do not hold back anymore. Do something remarkable. You have the awareness, the capacity and temperament to achieve whatever it is you desire.?

For as long as you can think it, you have already achieved it.?
