Inaction Breeds More of the Same
By Josh Hinds
Ask any would be author who has stared for hours on end at a
blank sheet of paper or computer monitor just how real
writers block can be -- and you'll fully grasp what I mean
when I say "inaction breeds more of the same."
When you're feeling stuck... Move!
Fortunately, the opposite is also true -- that is, if you're
stuck, and not sure what the next step you should take is,
taking a step, in almost any direction will be exactly what
you need to spur your creativity to kick in and get you on
the very path you need to be on. It sounds ridiculous I
know, but I've found it to be true just the same.
In fact, I've seen many an article I have written take shape
because I decided to just keep "writing" even when I wasn't
exactly sure that what I was writing belonged in the
particular article.
Yes, you read that right, sometimes, when I feel writers
block kicking in I will even write something to the effect
of "I'm not sure where I'm going with this, but I'll keep
writing" -- interestingly in short order I "find" the
thought I was looking for, and of course when it's time to
edit the completed article I just remove the nonsensical
sentences I wrote.
The example above is from my writing, but of course it's
definitely not limited to such. The idea is just as
effective when you?re trying to figure out a next step, or
set of actions in virtually any instance.
I often do brainstorming sessions with clients, and because
these sessions often involve people asking me questions on
the fly, my answers are replied to in real-time as well.
Naturally, during a brainstorming session every idea which
is discussed isn't going to be a "winner", nor even
necessarily something worth pursuing.
However, through having hashed out and built upon the ideas
that were thrown out there during the particular
brainstorming session, a workable idea inevitably does
appear. The reason is simple, action breeds action.
You can test what I'm suggesting for yourself easily. The
next time you?re feeling resistance to something -- work you
know you need to do, a call you need to make, you name it --
put off actually just doing the thing. Instead, try to run
it through your mind, the more time you begin "thinking
about the task" the more likely it is to grow in depth, it
will take on a form larger than it actually is in your mind.
In other words, procrastination will build.
The second part of the test is to simply resist the part of
you which wants to over analyze all the "right ways", and
"correct steps" which need to be done -- and instead take
swift action. That's right, actually get started doing
whatever is required to see completion on your given
endeavor.
In both instances we are talking about the same task that
needs doing -- but getting to "done" is as simple as not
over thinking it, not allowing your "procrastination
monster" to grow out of control. It sounds simple, because
it truly is -- but it requires your making the choice to not
put off what you know needs doing -- because the moment
between "starting now" and "getting started soon" is all too
often the difference between, finished and stuck!
It's your life, LIVE BIG!

참으로 불공평한 것이 인간이다. 진짜로 불평등한 것이 인간이다. 유엔헌장에도 헌법에도 공평평등을 밝히고 있다. 그러나 인생살이 세상살이 그 어디에 공평평등이 있던가, 일상 그 자체가 거대 불평등불공평으로 이뤄져 있다. 이 불공평불평등이 세상을 움작이는 힘이다. 그어나 우주자연의식창조주'God'신은 절대공평 절대평등이다.
목표를 세우든 아니 설정하든, 그 목표를 위해 행동을 하든 아니 하든 정확하게 동일한 양의 피땀에너지는 소비소모된다. 육체가 피땀에너지로 행동하지 않는다면 '나'너그대의 영혼정신이 양면에서 그와 정확하게 동일한 양의 피와땀에너지를 흘린다. 육체의 피땀에너지는 누구나 알고보고느낄 수 있으나 영혼정신이 흘린 피와땀 그리고 에너지는 보이지도 않고 알수도 없고 더욱 느낄 수도 없다. 그러나 이 피땀에너지는 모두가 부정적인 것으로 화하여 하나씩 하나씩 잠재의식 잠재능력 무의식에 차곡차곡 쌓여 생과 삶, 일생과 인생을 미궁으로 진창으로 악습으로 결국은 인생파탄이란 파국의벽 죽음에 부딛친다.
걱정없다. 간단하다, 아주 간단하다, 행동하라,. 할 수 없다라는 생각느낌환경여건 접고 할 수 있는 것 하라. 뭐든 좋다, 아무 관계 없다. 목표로 나가는 건강위해 '국민체조'라도 하면 된다. 더 쉬운 숨쉬기도 있다
