Where achievement happens

How do you accomplish what must be done? Start by getting yourself precisely in the place where you can do it.

To get in shape, go to the gym. To write your novel, sit yourself down at the keyboard.

You can’t paint a masterpiece while floating in the pool, and you won’t get your garage cleaned out while watching television. Demonstrate to yourself how committed you are by going where you can get it done.

Go there literally, physically. Then once you’re in place, go there energetically, with your focused actions.

It might be fun to wish, to imagine, to plan and prepare. Yet when you’re ready to achieve, you must be present, physically, mentally, spiritually, where achievement can happen.

When you’re present and taking action, then you’re serious, then you’re increasingly effective. Go there, put forth effort, and start creating the valuable results you desire.

— Ralph Marston
