A Thought for Today Overcome Procrastination Does this seem familiar? You have too many ideas or thoughts and don’t know which to concentrate on; you’re worried you might make the wrong decision. The simplest solution is to stop worrying and start taking action. Pick one idea and see it through to the end. Take small actions and persist to get momentum. Bigger results will come! What are you worrying about? What are you anxious about? What have you been putting off doing something about? And, most importantly, what action can you take today to get you started? Overcome procrastination.
