Be the Change no. 20
“Your beliefs are your actions. What you say is just what you think.”
Be the Change.
I work on change and still have changes to make. That is the basis of my life outlook right now. I am getting healthy BUT I could be healthier. I am learning and implementing new ideas and methods BUT I could be learning and doing more. I am shortening my supply chain BUT I could be doing more about the ecosystem. There is always more change on the horizon. This is not a take a pill and take a nap lifestyle. It is a dedication to change every day. No days off.
A lot of folks put in the work when others are watching. I make everyone witness to hold myself accountable. If I slip, I want to know and work on the change. That is why I commit to putting up my numbers every day this month. That is why I commit to writing something every day. That is why I commit to working out every morning. That is why I commit to showing the progress of the plantation. I want accountability.
And change doesn’t mean I get it right every day BUT the days I do get it right outnumber the days I mess things up. The days I start out right and end right are totally destroying the days I start out wrong and end right or start out right and end wrong. Change is a process and not a destination. The process is the means and the means are important, much more important than the end. The end will come regardless of the means. That is why the change must focus on the daily steps to change the end.
Most folks just want the end result. So they seek the next way to change their fortune, their health, their position without changing the way their lives work. And those miracle fixes that they advertise on television more and more these days, those MLM schemes that will get you change in six easy steps, those quick fixes never really get at the heart of the issue. You have to change how you approach life in order to change you.
And that means doing the work. There is no substitute for the work of change.
