Many people read books, listen to tapes, make plans and set goals but never take action. On another front, most people often take action but never are consistent with the action taken. It is not the one time action taken that creates the result that you anticipate. It is consistent action that is congruent and toward your desired outcome that will produce the kind of results that you envisage. Your action must not be taken haphazardly if lasting and meaningful results are to be achieved. Consistency therefore, must be built into the action taken toward your goals or objectives.

The question is why is it that most people do not take the necessary action on their goals and objectives?

1. Lack of focus: This is one single factor why most people do not take action to do what they are expected to do in order to achieve the result they so much desire. In our world today there are so many things vying for your attention and the ability to stay focus on those things that will move you in the direction of your goals is critical to your success. A basic truism that I have discovered over the years as a pastor and success facilitator is that where you place your focus, the rest of your mind and emotions will gravitate.

2. Lack of clarity: Clarity is vital if you are ever going to take any meaningful step to accomplishing your objectives. When your ideas are fuzzy and unclear it only but diminish and affect your desire to take action. The truth is that most people do not have clarity of what it is they want to achieve which in the final analysis prevents them from taking action. Consequently lack of clarity disempowers a lot of people from taking action on their goals and objectives.

3. Ideas are not organized into doable: Most people that I have worked with all have brilliant ideas and great thoughts of what it is they want out of life but fail to act on them. As a result, these ideas and thoughts are never actualized because these individuals never take action on these ideas. This is so because these ideas and thoughts are not organized into doable activities. Organizing your thoughts and ideas into doable activities will help propel you into action.

4. Procrastination: This is one of the enemies of any action oriented activity. This is the tendency that most people have. They refrain from pushing forward or putting activities that should be done now on hold. This leads to a pile up of activities to the point where the task to be accomplished become daunting leading to a situation where action is never taken to do what ought to have been done to achieved the anticipated expectation.

5. Lack of a develop plan: Not having a developed plan of action will hinder any significant action taken to achieve anything. The action steps to be taken in order to get things done must be written down. This will serve as an incentive to actually do what you have to do to achieve your goals and objectives.

It is imperative to understand that what you are bringing into your life and the measure of success you will achieve are all being decided by the action you are taking right now. With that thought in mind go to work today and start taking the actions that will move you closer to achieving your goals.

The book “Anatomy of frustration – Discover how to transform frustrations into creative opportunities and unlock the power to succeed”, is a unique and informative book that is filled with simple but yet powerful strategies that will empower you to transform frustration into productive opportunities. It is also designed to be your companion as you deal with frustrating events, people or circumstances on a daily basis.

Here is my joint venture proposal

It is with great pleasure that I invite you to join us on this grand event. On Thursday, January 15th, many partners from all walks of life and across the globe, will have come together to offer hundreds of gifts whose work is focused on personal development, success motivation, self help, blogging and making money thus empowering people and making a positive difference in their personal and professional lives.

These partners will send out at least one email announcing the ‘Anatomy of Frustration’ book promotion. The announcement email will contain the simple instructions on how to purchase the book, to that end the buyer will receive more than a few, personal and professional inspirational bonuses as incentive for taking action and buying the book on that day.

In what ways can you help as a partner?
