Want Better Results?

Want Better Results?

Although the root of this article stemmed from a sad story, the message is the same!

A close friend is suffering from alcoholism. I took them to an AA meeting the other day, the wisdom in that room was off the charts!

An individual shared her incredible life story, her message was quite simple, “I am in charge of the effort, not the results”.

What began as a gratitude meeting turned into a discussion about the efforts required in life and to maintain sobriety and that we really don’t have much control over the results in the future, but we are in complete control on the level of effort we put forth …………or not.

Be it in business or personally, weight loss, fitness, sales, your financial position, success as you choose to define it, I challenge you as they did in that room the other day to be in charge of the efforts and the intensity you put forth.

If you’re not seeing the results you want, take an honest assessment of yourself, and I bet where you’re missing it is probably just a lack of effort.

So, stop kidding yourself.

The message is stop complaining that you’re not seeing what you want in your life and instead, focus on the effort you’re putting forth every single day.

Take charge of your effort!
