Here is a good road map for success both in business and even more importantly, your personal life.
Be what you have to be.
Do what you have to do.
Have what you want to have.
So many times, people get stuck in a rut. They just don't know how to get out and make changes to progress. People have these mind blocks that prevent them from seeing different points of view or paths that would take them out of the life rut. Then, couple that with most having a lack of courage to change, and you have a ton of people that just accept where they are in life; even though they are terribly unsatisfied.
B + D = H
In the above formula, the "D" or do is the hang up most of the time. Those people in the ruts of life just will not DO what is needed to get out of the rut. They lack courage. They lack planning. They surely lack discipline. They lack execution. They lack accountability.
In order to keep movin' the life needle, you have to DO stuff! You have to execute well thought out strategies. You have to try things. You have to change.
This works! Be what you have to be; Do what you have to do; and the result is you having what you want to have!
