Why You Must Make Up Your Mind

Plato said, ‘Make up your mind, then, or rather have your mind already made up, for the time of delibration is over, and there is only one thing to be done, which must be done this very night, and if we delay at all will be no longer practicable or possible.’

If you know what you want for yourself, then stop waiting. Do not waste your time. The time of serious thinking is over. The time of intense planning is over. And the time of doubt, of fear, is over. Now is the time to act. If you do not act to make your dreams come true, they will die.

Whatever you want to do in your life, you can do it. And if you do not do it, your life will never change. Remember, for your life to change, something must change. According to Ozan Varol, ‘The key is to forget the noun and do the verb instead. If you want to be a blogger, start blogging every week. If you want to be a stand-up comedian, start performing at open-mic nights. If you want to be a podcaster, podcasting.’

‘If you want your life to take a different direction, you must take a different direction.’

He is right. If you want anything to change in your life, you must take action. If you want to get rid of something you do not like in your life, you have got to take a big action. If not, nothing is going to happen. Because nothing happens without action.
