"Who, How and When"

For those of us, myself included, who need to be reminded.

Note to Self:  John E. Lewis once said:  "If not us then who?  If not now, then when?" 

There will always be a reason why not to start something.  There will always be that booming voice that says, "I'll start tomorrow."  "I'm too old to learn that now."  "You'll look silly."  "That's going to require work and take up too much time".  "I don't know how."  “The problem is too big and there’s nothing I can do.”

If everyone had let these negative voices stop them from taking control of a situation, their lives, the way that they lived, of how they were treated and how they behaved then, this world would be in a far more dismal state than it is in now.  There are a great many things that require change or that need to be fixed.  The best place to begin is from within.  I make a choice.  I take action. 

I will keep the end goal in front of me as a reminder of what I NEED to do.  I have to remain motivated.  I have to take action. Not tomorrow but today.  Now.  When I do, then I find that the reasons I HAD that hindered my progress no longer hold sway over me.  I am no longer a prisoner of doubt or fear.  I defeat regret and begin to win.

So if not you, then who?  If not now, then when?  Start the workout, stop a bad habit.  Start a positive vibe, stop a negative outlook.  Start a fresh perspective, stop a narrow minded opinion.  Start to be the change that is needed.  Be open, be receptive and get started today.
