A lot of people have ideas, plans and things they want to do or achieve. Unfortunately, most of the time these ideas stay as ideas and never receive any actionable steps or physical ascertainment. There is often 1 key reason why this happens: it doesn’t feel like the ‘right time’. Now, sometimes this is 100% legitimate and it really is NOT the right time, because timing is real and there are times for certain things and times not for things, so let me distinguish…
Sometimes life happens in a way so that some things are not ascertainable at certain points in life, and sometimes this can be due to time, money, health, or other external circumstances outside of our control. Sometimes time and money are used as excuses, though other times these are completely legitimate; our time might be fully spent with work and family, whilst trying to maintain some balance and time for ourselves; and sometimes all the money we have available to us is spent on the essentials and providing for those close to us, and sometimes this is just the way things are. However, this does not mean you cannot PLAN and take steps to make changes in your life, this is still considered the necessary action to achieve everything that you want. So, you might know in the foreseeable future that things will change; you may be working less, receive a promotion, or finish paying off those debts or the mortgage, and then you know things will be different and you can plan accordingly. Other times, there may be things you can do in these circumstances to create small change, but the key word here is change, and this is often what people find the hardest, especially when they have been doing things a specific way for a certain amount of time. Examples of change could be going to bed or getting up earlier to allow more time in your day to get things done, or it could be cutting back on habits that consume money unnecessarily. Whatever, what I find with clients is there are always certain changes that can be made to benefit your life. Sometimes, you may not be aware of the changes you can make and the possibilities these can create for you, or other times, you may be resisting or avoiding certain changes because they feel to hard or overwhelming at the time. Whatever the case, sometimes you may need someone in your corner to help and guide you through these times, either to identify specific changes you could make, or gives you tools and strategies to make the changes you have been wanting or know you can make. It is too often I see people who have unlimited opportunities in front of them, but either they cannot see this or think that ‘this is just the way life is’, and so they do not make the changes they could be and ultimately do not pursue or live the life they truly want, they instead surrender to what they have or their situation and think ‘I guess this will do’…
Sometimes people go through the worst before they realise they want change, but it does not have to be this way for you, the worst does not have to happen before changes can be made, changes can be made NOW, and this brings me back to the purpose of this article, that NOW is the time to make take action and make change. You might be in a position right now to really go after the things you want, which could be booking that holiday, moving towns, putting a deposit down on that house, changes jobs, or you might be currently dealing with circumstances and only able to make the smaller changes. Either way, these actions are both impactful, and will lead to being able to live the life you truly want
