No amount of hoping and praying can substitute hard work

Published: Tuesday, 12 February 2013

Want to do something but you don't feel like it?

Want to start a company but you feel the first step is too high and too hard?  Want to get fit but you feel too unmotivated to exercise?  What to start your plans now but you feel like you can't because you feel too busy?

Well, the best way to feel like doing something, the best way to get motivated by starting a company, the best way to get motivated about getting fit and the best way to feel like you're going in the right direction, is to make the first move.

You'll feel motivated by your company when it starts achieving results.  You'll feel motivated about your body when you see the outcomes of your exercising.  You'll feel motivated, if you just take the action.  Just take the first step, and try it.
