Idea——  Plan —— Action ——- Results

Just knowing this process doesn’t necessarily bring you to action.

Why? Fear of failure, mistakes and disappointments.Know that such consequences are simply part of the process. Embrace it and move on. Become good at facing failure – learn from it!Overwhelmed by big goal and can’t see the small achievable steps or even the first simple step?Motion creates new circumstances and awareness. Otherwise inertia, passivity of observation which though enlightening, can become boring if we indulge in it. We need a balance.

What causes delay?

Some kind of belief, judgement or underlying automatic commitment (UAC) that holds us back from taking responsibility.

We need to think clearly through the false reasoning of fear itself. The only way around fear is to move through it. Face the fear and do it anyway!

Methods to shift delay to action

* Goal setting – break into manageable steps
* Address the fears with reasoning – as illusions constructed in our mind
* Address UAC eg could be committed to failure
* Accountability – use structures
* Shift in perception eg when you come to the end of your life would you regret not doing this?

Consequences

You need to describe the consequences of not taking action. Which is worse: Action or non-action?
