It’s another New Year despite what the Mayans had “predicted” and as every New Year would have it, people are always making New Year resolutions but the most important question to ask is how many people really take action?

Sure we all want improvements in one or the other areas of our lives but what really matters is our ability to take action into making sure our resolutions come to pass be they New Year resolutions or daily resolutions as some of us would have it.

Why You Need To Take Action

From a general point of view, the main reason why we all need to take action is so that we utilize our talents into making the world a better place so to say. We all have unique ideas and when we implement them, we in the long run help others also tap into their various capabilities and talents and this leads to a more cohesive society where more people take action.

On a personal note, the main reason why we all need to take action is so that we achieve our individual goals and ambitions in life which in turn shape us into being better human beings as well as being of value to others.

How To Take Action

The easiest way to go about taking action is to ask yourself one simple question, “Am I Comfortable?” If your answer is YES then you need to improve on what you’re currently doing so as to get better results in whatever your involved in e.g. work or even a relationship, but if your answer is NO, then you need to stop doing whatever you’re doing, take a step behind and look for ways to make the picture more appealing. Remember that Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results (Albert Einstein).

Benefits Of Taking Action

I tend to think that one of the major benefits that arise when you decide to take action is self-gratification or contentment if you like. It’s this inner feeling of really being proud of yourself for what you’ve accomplished and no amount of money can buy this feeling for you, only taking action will.

As we start of on a new year, it’s my hope that we all take action on all our ideas and leave no stone unturned because if we don’t, no one else will do that for us.

Just remember that if you want it, you’ve got to TAKE ACTION!
