There are a thousand excuses for failure but never a good reason

It has been said that if people put as much energy into achieving their goals as they spend making excuses for failure, they would surprise themselves.

The island of excuses

To live is to risk it all; otherwise you're just an inner chunk of randomly assembled molecules, drifting wherever the universe blows you.

Living fully and authentically often involves taking risks.  Life without risks may be predictable, but it might lack growth and extraordinary experiences.  Therefore a meaningful and fulfilling life requires stepping outside of one's comfort zone, facing uncertainty, and embracing challenges.

Understand yourself and those around you.

A most potent weapon against procrastination is a Disciplined mindset; Doing what you are supposed to do, when you don't want to do it.It is vital to understand the frailty of limited time at our disposal if we must achieve the best version of ourselves!

The Best Time To Act Was Yesterday

Brian Tracy sheds light on how procrastination feeds off of excuses, blames but ultimately,  goals and dreams.

You don’t need to have been born under a lucky star, or with incredible wealth, or with terrific contacts and connections, or even special skills...but what you do need to succeed in any of your life goals is self-discipline. Unfortunately, most people give in to the two worst enemies of success: they take the path of least resistance (in other words, they’re lazy) and/or they want immediate gratification: they don’t consider the long-term consequences of the actions they take today. No Excuses! shows you how you can achieve success in all three major areas of your life: 1. Your personal goals. 2. Your business and money goals. 3. Your overall happiness. Each of the 21 chapters in this book shows you how to be more disciplined in one aspect of your life, with end-of-chapter exercises to help you apply the “no excuses” approach to your own life. With these guidelines, you can learn how to be more successful in everything you do—instead of wistfully envying others who you think are just “luckier” than you. A little self-discipline goes a long way...so stop making excuses and read this book!
