Stand on one side of a room and let your goal be to touch a target on the opposite wall. Touching the target symbolizes attaining anything you want to be or do or have.
Take “two steps forward.” This represents taking action, doing the things it takes to get what you want. Now take “one step back.” This represents getting distracted and doing something that takes you further away from your goal.
Now take “two more steps forward,” then “another step back” and then two more forward and one more back. Keep it up until you “reach the target.” Take more than two steps forward, like five or six and you’ll get there quicker.
On the other hand, taking two steps back and one step forward and repeating that over and over takes you further away from your goal. Keep that up and you’ll never get there.
Standing in one place won’t do it either and neither will walking in circles or jumping up and down.
Specific goals and specific actions are required to achieve anything. Taking the right kind of action is the foundational key for success.
Decide what you want. What’s the plan to get it? Do it! Evaluate and adjust as needed. Get it done! Make it happen!
