START NOW
There are two sides to a coin. If Will Powers is one side, then Fate is on the other. Will Powers and Fate have to work together. Do you want to climb the ladder of enlightenment? Do you dare to be great? One's fate can change based on use of one's Will. It takes sacrifice. It takes concentration. It takes passion. It takes commitment to say - "I start now."
I have asked myself on numerous occasions what keeps me from doing something that I say I want to do. I'm Will Powers and yet I am no different at times from all who say they want to do something but do not take the action to make their idea or dream a reality. I know there are no excuses. Either one does what one says they will do or they do not. Thinking you will do it later, that you can put it off, is not how you succeed at anything.
Do you want to lose weight? Do you want to earn more money? Do you want a better relationship with your friends and family? The only way to change is to START NOW. There may not be a tomorrow and if there is, then you are a "dollar short and a day late."
I suggest taking 3 letters, TNT, ( TODAY NOT TOMORROW) and say them to yourself 100 times a day. This mantra has helped me in the past to take action on my ideas. If I have had this problem of procrastination, in all likelihood you have too. It's important for us to realize that there's more fun in tomorrow if you know you've started on the road to your goals today.

Once you change, things will get better. I really think you can change, and one small step you can do is checking out my blog because I post on daily motivation and inspiration with every post. I make about a few posts every week, and it keeps ME on track, and it can help keep YOU on track too.
i'm happy to help!
In answer to your question, I have found in my own life I am suddenly reaching a point where goals are materializing around me, I am driven to create, and it's almost effortless, whereas before I would struggle to commit to or finish anything. And looking back, that's because I hadn't finished sorting myself out. I finally got happy with myself, and with what I have already in my life, and it seems growth comes naturally, but I really had to work through the crap first. I believe (in line with Maslow and no end of psychologists) that you really need to meet those needs first before you can begin to actualize and be everything you can be.
I'm at that stage now, and feel I'm overflowing, so I've started my blog to offer whatever I can of myself to help others, as that's all I have, and I know that I now have enough for me and to share, and willpower isn't even coming into it anymore. :-)

I just wanted to say thanks ... so thank you! I had the original Dancing For Mental Health album in the early 80s. It's upbeat cheesy danceableness worked for me. Now I'm a 45 year old Dad of two daughters, and will play it for them when kissing with confidence or otherwise stops being considered yucky. I deeply appreciate your work, and to use a tired phrase, positive input. As I say to myself ..'Make it habit. Make it happen!".
Thanks

I appreciate knowing that you will pass on the dancing to your daughters and knowing that make it habit , make it happen might be of some use to them too....
