Motivation Monday: Do It Now—A Little Effort Now is Better Than Any Effort Later

The thing I personally love about these Motivation Monday quotes is that I keep thinking about them from week to week and see them playing a role in my life.

Today's Motivation Monday carries on from something I've been working on last week.

"Do it now—A little effort now is better than any effort later."

It's simple. But to make it even more simple...now is always better than later.

Throughout this last week, my sister has been awesome at helping me prioritize what I need to get done and keeping me accountable for actually doing it.

As I stated time and time before, I'm someone who likes to THINK about thing a lot before I actually DO those things. In some cases (like big decisions) this is a good thing. But in other cases (like putting bananas in the freezer or putting shoes away in the closet), this process is not a good thing.

Why keep your mind cluttered up with countless items on a to-do list when you can actually...just...do them! Wow, totally new information huh?

I did pretty well this last week. But I know this is something I need to keep working on. I'm hoping to make this habit a permanent part of my life. If I think about something...I just want to do whatever I can for it right then and there. I'll share more on this later.

So when something pops into your mind...DO IT NOW!

Just take out the trash.

Just call that friend.

Just start reading that book.

Any effort counts. If you don't do it now, how likely are you to actually do it later? I know my percentage goes WAAAAY down.

Try it. See how you do.
