Exchanging the Immediate for the Ultimate

This exchange can be summed up in one of my favorite quotes from Zig Ziglar: “The chief cause of failure and unhappiness is trading what we want most for what we want now.”

 

You’ve heard each of the essential exchanges; now you need to take action! As Leonardo da Vinci said, “I have been impressed with the urgency of doing. Knowing is not enough; we must apply. Being willing is not enough, we must do.”

You’ve heard each of the essential exchanges; now you need to take action!

It’s time to do!

Take action:

  • Get involved.
  • Close the laptop and make the phone call.
  • Fill out the application.
  • Send your resume and try to get the job.
  • Pack the trailer and go.
  • Write the note.
  • Offer to help.
  • Don’t wait to be asked.
  • Take the risk.
  • Be fully present.
  • Focus on excellence.
  • Ask for greater faith and courage.
  • Have the honest conversation.
  • Make the choice.
