Morning Motivator- Get off the Fence…

"It doesn't matter which side of the fence you get off on sometimes. What matters most is getting off. You cannot make progress without making decisions."
- Jim Rohn

POLITICS are very funny. They often are the BEST and WORST of the human experience. You have TWO sides, equally passionate about what THEY feel is the best for the community. But who is right..? Moreover, what are WE supposed to do about it?

The Answer: EDUCATE YOURSELF… PICK A SIDE… MAKE A DECISION… STAND UP FOR IT!

All too often the OPPONENTS to major projects are not seeking to have you decide NOT to do the project. Rather, they are HOPING to encourage you to NOT take any ACTION.

Ask yourself, "What is the single, most dangerous activity to PROGRESS?" (If you said "inactivity" you scored 10 million points). Now, ask yourself, "What is the most DANGEROUS decision I am capable of making?" (If you said, "indecision" you win another 10 million points).

2 DEGREE SUCCESS STEP:

Leadership REQUIRES difficult decision making, hence the reason why many people don't want the role. Sometimes, the decisions being made are UNPOPULAR. Commonly, there are RIVAL thoughts about any decision and a "belief" that there is always a "better alternative."

As a LEADER you are looked to for guidance, encouragement and education. If you are "wishy – washy" about your decision making, what can you EXPECT of your team? If you are INCAPABLE of making decisions and seeing them through, then what EXAMPLE are you setting for your supporters?

Keep in mind that literally, all but one decision in life, CAN be RECOVERED from. You can go BANKRUPT and make more money. You can LOSE a relationship and gain it back. You can MOVE and move back. The point here is…

Don't sit on the fence and watch the world fly by... Get involved, pick a side and help others get ENGAGED!

Cheers,
Zach
