			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<!-- google_ad_section_start --><p>It&#8217;s all about Taking Action! You can have all the methods in the world laid out in front of you, but without you taking some form of  action you&#8217;ll never succeed! Learning is a good thing, but if all this gathering of information is not backed by Action, you&#8217;ll achieve nothing. It&#8217;s a good thing to write your vision or your goals down and probably mind map things, but if that is all you do, and you don&#8217;t get to do the practical part of translating your goals to reality; you gain nothing.</p>
<p>It doesn&#8217;t mean you alone needs to work to get things done. You can outsource some of your activities, to let other people do your work. Never spend too much time worrying about things or entertaining fear. Get to work, but work smarter. If you can train other people to do your menial jobs, then do it, that is wisdom in business.</p>
<p>Taking Action is a major key to your success! Learning, planning, strategizing are some of the aspects needed for you to succeed, but that don&#8217;t make you a somebody. You become someone when you take action and your goals are no longer on paper but have manifested to reality! Take Action, learn from any mistakes fast, don&#8217;t give up, and you will succeed soon. There is never a right time, start now!</p>

It comes in so many ways, and it does a good job to hide behind so many faces and actions. Procrastination, excuses, too much talking, blaming someone, etc are all forms of fear to get started on your agendas. If there is something you want to do, and you&#8217;re so clear about what you want to achieve, there is no point of waiting, or keep on pondering until you feel you are perfect enough to get the job done. <em><strong>In fact, don&#8217;t wait until conditions get better, because they won&#8217;t. The only way to get going, is to get started.</strong></em></p>
<p>You need to fight all excuses, distractions, TV, Internet, general chats, etc to get started on your dreams. You are the only person who can open the door to your success, no one can do it for you. <strong>Time will not respect you and wait for you.</strong> The only thing you can do is to Get On With It. Fear will leave you once you get started. Even if you make an error, at least you had courage to get started.</p>
<blockquote><p><em><strong>Keep on taking action until you succeed. Don&#8217;t wait any longer, Get On With It!</strong></em></p></blockquote>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<!-- google_ad_section_start --><p><img class="size-full wp-image-795 alignleft" title="taking_action_parrot" src="http://simonpreacher.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/taking_action_parrot.jpg" alt="taking action parrot Talking Action Vs Taking Action" width="300" height="225" /><strong>They say empty vessels make the most noise. Boy, the proverb is so true!</strong> There are people in this world who talk and that&#8217;s all they do. They have nothing to show for their talk, they are simply noise makers. They go from one person to another talking about what they want to achieve, how they are going to do it and the results they are going to achieve. When they tell you what they are going to do, you quickly believe in what they are saying. <span style="text-decoration: underline;">To them, talking is as far as they can go with their dreams. They are all for talk and nothing to show for it.</span></p>
<p>These guys keep on living life with excuses. They have a disease of talking, and what they talk about confidently, they don&#8217;t have the courage of working hard at it. They allow fear to talk to them out of taking action. They know how to talk, so they have excuses why they haven&#8217;t achieved anything worthwhile in their lives.</p>
<p><strong>Talking will not yield you any results.</strong> If you are one of the guys I am talking about, it&#8217;s not too late for you. All you need to do is to get yourself started by keeping your mouth shut, and getting yourself to work. <span style="text-decoration: underline;">Fear, laziness and excuses will not put food on your table, but ACTION will do it for you.</span></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<blockquote><p><strong>There is a HUGE difference between &#8220;Talking Action&#8221; and &#8220;Taking Action&#8221;. Talking Action yields nothing, while Taking Action yields you great results. As from today, Become any Action Taker and not an Action Talker!</strong></p></blockquote>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<!-- google_ad_section_start --><p><img class="size-full wp-image-787 alignright" title="shot_on_target" src="http://simonpreacher.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/shot_on_target.jpg" alt="shot on target Target Shooting Success" width="300" height="200" />When a hunter is shooting in the dark, they are doing so hoping they might hit something. They don&#8217;t have their shot on target, they are simply praying that by some chance, they might be able to catch their prey. (That is a surefire way of failing!) The probability of catching something in such a case is very low. Hunters who shoot in the dark are not successful hunters. <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><em>You have got to know where your prey is and moreover, you&#8217;ve got to have your shot on target; that&#8217;s the only way you can catch your prey and succeed in your endeavors. Shooting in the dark is a guess game and it don&#8217;t work!<br />
</em></span><br />
This is one of the major problem with so many people who are striving to become successful. They don&#8217;t plan anything, they don&#8217;t write their goals down, they want to get somewhere they have never been before without a map. That&#8217;s insane and the probability of getting lost is high.</p>
<p><strong>If you want to succeed in life, you got to have a map which will show you where you are going. Write your goals down don&#8217;t ever think you can just work it all out from your head.</strong> If not you will get distracted by all sorts of things and you won&#8217;t remember what your mission for the day was and this will lead you to more failure. Not writing your goals down, hoping to succeed in this life its like throwing your arrows in the dark. Don&#8217;t do such thing! Goals are steps you need to take to get you to your intended destination.</p>
<blockquote><p><strong>Don&#8217;t woke up each day hoping that you might do something that is going to make you a success; you have got to research, plan, have clear goals and take action. My simple formula is know what you want, know how you want to get there and let nothing stand in your way. Simple as that! Success is not a random game!</strong></p></blockquote>

<p style="text-align: left;">Activity, Activity, Activity; that&#8217;s your key to any form of success. Activity always pays, remember that! Without activity, you won&#8217;t go anywhere: you will be like a goat tied to a tree going round and round in circles, still getting back to the same place!<strong> </strong></p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><strong>Have you been meaning to:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Join the gym?</li>
<li>Tidy that room?</li>
<li>Write that book?</li>
<li>Paint the house?</li>

<li>Call that prospective client?</li>
<li>Apply &amp; Enrol at the university?</li>
<li>Take someone away for a short break?</li>
</ul>
<p>Have you been wondering why you haven&#8217;t achieved anything of significance yet? <strong>Your Problem is; You&#8217;re Lacking Activity in your endeavors!</strong> <span style="text-decoration: underline;">No Activity, No Achievement! If you don&#8217;t do, you won&#8217;t get</span>. Can you harvest grain even though you didn&#8217;t plant anything? I don&#8217;t think so!</p>
<p>You need to get going, you need to get started and when I say get started, I mean get started! No more putting things off for later or when you feel like you want to. You need to get started now! There is no point of speaking about it, telling everyone about it, planning it and doing nothing!</p>
<p>If you don&#8217;t act, your life will remain the same, conditions will remain the same and your results will be the same. No Activity, No Success!</p>
<p>Your only option is to take massive action!</p>

<p style="text-align: left;"><strong>M</strong>ore of the same will bring more of the same. If you work hard at something, having clear goals, you will yield great results. If you spend your days contemplating failure and defeat, you will yield failure and defeat.</p>
<p>You get out of life, what you put into it, and when you change the causes that shape your life &#8211; primarily your thoughts, words and actions &#8211; you&#8217;ll get different results. Don&#8217;t expect to reap what you don&#8217;t sow: If you sow a lemon seed; don&#8217;t expect to reap an orange. It won&#8217;t happen! If you carry on laying the same &#8217;causes&#8217;, you will get the same results.</p>
<p>The actions you take today, determines what your life will be in the future. If you&#8217;re not happy with your results today, it might be in the area of your finances, relationships, physical stature, spirituality, marriage, business endeavors and so on; then you have got to work hard towards attaining your intended results. This might mean changing your beliefs, your thoughts, bad habits, actions, etc &#8211; you&#8217;ve got to do what you&#8217;ve got to do to ensure attainment, joy and happiness in the future.</p>
<p>You need to set clear goals and begin working hard to make sure you reap your intended result. Don&#8217;t worry about the results of yesterday, yesterday is gone, you can start from today to create a brighter tomorrow. If you feel overwhelmed with your tasks, don&#8217;t be intimidated, maybe you just need to break your goals into smaller manageable tasks. You can&#8217;t build a city in one day, but, you can build a city. Don&#8217;t be discouraged, be of good cheer and get to work.</p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>

<p style="text-align: left;"><strong>When there is something you really want to achieve in your life, you must be willing to take steps each day to make it happen. </strong></p>

I define inactivity as lacking progress. Why is it people fail to make progress? Because they are striving for perfectionism from the word go. They want things, conditions and situations to become perfect before they take their first step towards achieving their goals.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">If you ask any successful people in any area of life, they will tell you they never got started knowing everything. They made progress first and figured out everything along the way.</p>
<p>Perfectionism is the number one reason why many people died without manifesting their ideas to the world. It is the reason why many are stuck doing things they don&#8217;t want to do because they are seeking to be perfect before they do what they ought to do.</p>
<p>Stop waiting for the perfect time, perfect opportunity, perfect day, perfect people and perfect condition. Make progress now and you will never regret the sacrifice. Go for progress and never perfectionism.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><strong><strong><strong><strong><span title="processed"><div class="note"><div class="noteclassic"><span style="color: #800000;">Sloppy Progress Is Better Than Perfect Mediocrity!</span></div></div></span></strong></strong></strong></strong></p>
<p>My encouragement is that you start from today to make progress pursuing that dream. Don&#8217;t strive for perfectionism, strive for progress. You don&#8217;t have to be perfect to get started. Get started anyways and do everything you can to perfect what needs to be perfected. The demand for progress should always exceed the supply of perfectionism.</p>
<p>Make progress first and endeavor to learn as you progress. Read, study, learn and do everything to perfect your ways. Remember;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<!-- google_ad_section_start --><h3 style="text-align: center;"><strong><span style="color: #800000;">Some People Dream of Success While Others Wake Up And Work Hard At It!</span></strong></h3>
<p style="text-align: center;">
<p style="text-align: left;"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-462" title="dream_blueprint" src="http://simonpreacher.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/dream_blueprint.jpg" alt="dream blueprint Your Talent Is Bigger than Your Fears!" width="300" height="225" />Your talent is the area of your life where you are able to effectively and efficiently provide extreme value to mankind and in return you get compensated for your efforts.</p>
<p>Your talent is your God-given ability and it&#8217;s your access door to abundance. Through your talent you&#8217;re able to make a difference to the world, change lives and make life easier to others.</p>
<p>Everyone of us has a unique talent they were born with. It doesn&#8217;t matter whether the person is disabled or not, they too are endowed with an amazing ability that is meant to solve somebody else&#8217;s problem.</p>
<p>Those who develop their talents will set themselves apart from the rest. Your goal is to discover your talent, find successful people who are already operating in that area and imitate what they did to be where they are now! If you want to be the best at what you do, you need to develop your talent, learn, practise and become very skillful at what you do. Talent that is not developed, will not take you far!</p>
<p>One of the major enemies of Talent is a thing called &#8216;fear&#8217;. Fear is a bully, a dream destroyer and a vision stealer. It stands in front of the door of your opportunity to stop you from crossing over to fulfillment and achievement. Fear is a loud mouth, talking trash and telling you that you can never make it. It gives you all the reasons in the world of how impossible and difficult it is to accomplish your dreams. It&#8217;s all lies, it&#8217;s just fear talking smack!</p>
<p>Fear only gives you negative ideas not positive ones. It reminds you of your weaknesses, not your strengths.  It comes out with a tsunami of reasons why dreams can&#8217;t be accomplished. If you tolerate fear, you will not go far. You will run away from your life&#8217;s purposes and spend life frustrated, unfulfilled, broke, unhappy and doing things you are not meant to do.</p>
<p>If you want to live a life of abundance, success and breakthrough then you need to conquer fear by believing in your God given abilities and having faith in the fulfilment of your dreams. Fear is also destroyed by Action. If you believe in your dream, then take action and you&#8217;ll begin to see fear vanishing and that stubborn trash talking voice shutting up!</p>
<p>Your dreams are more important than your fears, remember that! Through your dreams you are able to live a life of JOY, happiness and fulfilment. Go for it, you too are a Champion. Believe!</p>

<p><strong> </strong><br />
<img class="alignright size-full wp-image-408" title="success_or_failure" src="http://simonpreacher.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/success_or_failure.jpg" alt="success or failure For Things To Change, You Must Change!" width="300" height="225" />I see many people complaining about life and how things are never changing in their life. Things remain the same and they see themselves being trapped in some sort of a monitored circle. They experience the same hardships, challenges and continue to experience the same kind of pain and distress.</p>
<p>Such individuals, feel like they are not in control of their lives and that their life is being controlled by some force that doesn&#8217;t take pleasure in their success.</p>
<p>Honest truth is that you are responsible for your own life. The decisions you make today, determines your tomorrow&#8217;s outcome!<strong> The power lies with you of the tomorrow you intend to live and experience.</strong> Though we don&#8217;t have full power to predict whether we will see tomorrow or not, we still have power to make sure if tomorrow comes, we will experience it based on our today&#8217;s actions!</p>
<ul>
<li>How can things change if you continue to watch TV like it&#8217;s going somewhere tomorrow?</li>
<li>How can your relationships change if you don&#8217;t sit down and digest your loved one&#8217;s points of view?</li>
<li>How can things change if you continue to sleep for many hours instead of being up taking action to accomplish your goals?</li>
<li>How can things change in your marriage when you spend most of your leisure time with your friends?</li>
<li>How can things change if you don&#8217;t talk to someone to get help?</li>
<li>How can things change, when you continue to associate yourself with people who pull you down?</li>
<li>How can things change when you continue to yell at people to listen to you?</li>
<li>How can things change when you are not willing to get rid of your bad habits?</li>
<li>How can things change if you spend days and weeks without reading or learning something new?</li>
<li>How can they change?</li>
</ul>
<blockquote><p><strong>Things will not change, until you decide to change and make some sacrifices. </strong></p></blockquote>
<p>Today is the day, when you will conduct a quality check of your life. Be honest with yourself if you truly want to see new changes in your life. It&#8217;s time you get rid of all those bad habits and addictions that are pulling you down. It&#8217;s time you get rid of any kind of laziness for you to progress and see the change you want to see in your life.</p>
<p>I know you will succeed and live a peaceful life that is full of joy and happiness. But before the fruition of those things, you must make a firm decision to make changes to your status quo!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<!-- google_ad_section_start --><h3 style="text-align: center;"><strong><span style="color: #993300;">There Is A Gap Between Knowing and Taking Action &amp; Those Who Are Willing To Cross The Gap Will Succeed! </span></strong></h3>
<p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-314" title="action" src="http://simonpreacher.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/action.jpg" alt="action Successful People Are Action People" width="235" height="300" />After you have planned, trained, prepared, drafted, visualized and confessed a positive affirmation; there comes a time when taking action becomes a necessity to bring those plans into reality. Taking Action is the physical manifestation of those plans and without it, you achieve nothing and your plans will simply be mere wishes.</p>
<p>Just for the record,<strong> no successful person has ever not taken action. Successful people are known as Action People.</strong> if you go around, you see businesses, jobs, shops, buildings, etc these are simply results of someone who had a plan and decided to take action.</p>
<p><strong>If you take action you reduce your chances of failing.</strong> If you miss the mark keep on moving forward taking action, you will eventually find a way and succeed at the end. The only way you can get rid of fear, is by taking action. Action taking open many possibilities of success, it builds experience through any faults you make along the way, and all those faults can then be used as experiences for you to succeed. Henry Ford once said;</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;Failure is only the opportunity to begin again, only this time more wisely.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>Don&#8217;t view failing as failure. Even the great Thomas Edison said:-</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;I have not failed. I&#8217;ve just found 10,000 ways that won&#8217;t work&#8221;.</p></blockquote>
<p>What about if guys like Thomas Edison and Henry Ford decided not to take action? Where will our world be? Will we be using an Electric light bulb today?</p>
<p>They were successful guys because they didn&#8217;t just plan things and talk themselves out of it. They planned and committed themselves to take action to see the fulfillment of their dreams. <strong>The difference between a successful person &amp; others is not a lack of strength, not a lack of knowledge, but rather a lack of action.</strong> Remember to take action to see your dreams fulfilled. Just go out there and do what you&#8217;ve got to do. <strong>TAKE ACTION</strong></p>
<p>Forget about excuses and reasons why you will fail, focus on reasons why you will succeed. Stop postponing dates into the future, don&#8217;t have excuses why today might be less important because <strong>there is no such thing in anyone&#8217;s life as an unimportant day. Everyday is a miracle and an opportunity.</strong> Seize every time you have effectively. Remember: No Action, No Success! So I encourage you to begin Taking Action from today onwards.</p>
