Are you a "Now" or "Later" person ?
First let's define what we mean by "Now" and "Later".
A "Now" person is one who is consistently drawn towards pleasing activities, immediate gratification and pleasure. They spend of lot of time and
money on entertainment, TV, food, shopping and mindless activities.
A "Later" person, on the other hand, is drawn toward pleasing RESULTS instead of pleasing ACTIVITIES. They often have less than pleasing activities in the moment. They invest their time in taking care of their health, working extra hours to accomplish a worthy goal, reading good books, taking additional training to improve their lives and their business. They hang out with people who can stretch their
thinking, they themselves follow through, take action, take risks and are comfortable with being uncomfortable.
Which of these two groups of people do you identify with? Beware of becoming seduced by taking the easy way of the "Now" person.
Mastery and money come to those who are willing to accomplish less than pleasing activities in the moment that are necessary for the attainment of a long term goal.
Winners take action when others won't. They have integrity, which simply means their words and behaviors match up.
Put it this way - if you heard me teach one thing and saw me do the opposite wouldn't it be hard to take me seriously? Take yourself and your desires seriously and do what you say you are going to do. Give up the need for immediate gratification and do what you need to do in the short term to make your dreams come true. In the long term, you will come out a winner.
