Why You Should Get Started Now

by Bright Osadiaye, posted in Personal Development, Personal Growth

Getting started is better than waiting for the perfect time to start.

In fact, the best time to start anything is now. Where you are now does not really matter. What you know does not matter. Other things don’t matter. What matters is that you get started.

According to Tiffany Pham, ‘It doesn’t matter how you start, where you start, or why you start. All that matters is that you start. When you dare to try something new, it can be the foot in the door that leads to everything you’ve ever wanted.’

Just get to work. Do not wait for the perfect time to start living your life. Do not waste your time on what you do not enjoy doing. ‘Look for work you believe in.’ Because when you do get started, when you commit to what you want to achieve in your life, ‘success eventually surrenders to you.’

That is why you should not wait for the perfect time to start doing your work. Yes, your work. If you want to be different, to achieve greatness, you must do your work. You must ‘keep the fires of passion burning….’ If not, you are not going to get anything done.

Leadership is not about you. It is about other people. It is about how you treat other people.

If you want to be different, you must do things differently.

‘The only person who should ever pay for your leadership is you.’– Dr. Kevin Leman

Great leaders ‘hire for attitude (willingness and flexibility), because you can always teach skills.’

Great leaders ‘treat everyone as important- because they are.’

Great leaders ‘leave room for advancement.’

‘Great leadership isn’t professional; it’s personal.’– Dr. Kevin Leman

Great leaders surround themselves with ‘people who balance’ them.

Great Leaders ’empower people.’

Great leaders ‘learn to ask rather than demand.’

Great leaders know that ‘great leadership is not a technique. It’s not a course you master. It’s all about having the heart of a leader. It’s about caring about the people you serve and service. It’s about honesty, integrity, and inspiring others to perform at their peak potential because you respect them and consider them important members of the team. it’s about servicing your customers by helping them obtain the products they need instead of trying to sell them what they don’t want, just to make a buck. It’s about thinking about the good of the group.’
