Be Decisive

Bill FitzPatrick - Founder of the "American Success Institute".

Action Principle No.30 >> Be Decisive, You don't have to wait for permission to do the right thing. Be decisive. Take the initiative. Get the facts. Do it now. If you don't have time to send a letter to a sick friend, send a card, a fax or an e-mail. If you can't visit your mother, call her. If you see a gift that a friend would love, buy it for him or her. If you can't go to the gym or dojo for ninety minutes, go for forty minutes.

Avoid not doing things because you can't get them done exactly as you'd originally planned. Be bold and get in the habit of doing something. Walk down one block. Pay three bills. Spend fifteen minutes with your children's homework. Give five dollars to charity. Small efforts done continually can yield significant, positive results. Do it now while it's in your mind. You don't have to be perfect to live the Action Principles. Just be a person of action. You must have more than good intentions to succeed. You must act. Get it done. Start it now.
