What Does 'Doing' Mean To You?

 

What Does 'Doing' Mean To You?

 

This may seem like a very simple question and it may actually be but the answer you give may even surprise you.

It is often said that a man who knows how to do will always have a job - right?

Which therefore suggests that there is a wide gulf between knowing and doing

It is in the doing of things that we experience the vicissitudes of life and each storm we overcome teaches us some key ingredients for life and living.

These include:

1. Always Have a Plan A, B, C and D. You never know which one will work.

People have lost their tools and implements of work at one fell swoop but because they had adjunct tools, they did not feel the loss as much.

People have lost their jobs without notice - just went to work and were given a letter of redundancy - but because they had already started some side hustle, they did not feel the impact of the job loss greatly

So having other plans aside Plan A would always turn out to be a saving grace!

2.      Panic Will Kill You

Keeping still or otherwise said being lazy will certainly cause one to panic in times of stress. It really makes no sense waiting for godot when you know that he is never going to come or if he actually does, it would take eons of years.

Get on with doing something! Being able to react instead of freeze up is important.

3.     It Takes Time To Get Good At Anything 

And it is popularly said that practice makes perfect

Doing is an active thing, it is a muscle that needs to be honed every day - remember that you miss 100% of the shots you never take. Doing is action, it is taking a shot but it also means taking a good aim before shooting, you don't just shoot at random.

If you want to master any act, do it every day and by the time you have mastered it, you would become proficient in it that it will be like second nature to you.

4.       Don't Let Fear Get In Your Way

 It needs to be repeated every now and then that fear is what keeps men tied to one spot, making them unable to make any movement at all.

Doing is fear that has been allowed to express itself.

Fear is always lurking around us but it we decide to do that which we are afraid of, we might just find out that we ought to have done it a long time ago.

Doing complicated things not only requires time but also requires that we go ONE STEP at a time.

Whenever you step out and fear steps in, address it properly so that it can leave your path and allow you to move on.

Doing starts with a decision to do and so if there is something you have left on the side burner all these years, the time has come to bring it out of the cooler and kick start it. Chances are that you would get to it in less than no time

But remember to give yourself time - don't put yourself under unnecessary pressure; and not to beat up yourself if you miss a step

You have to bear through all the frustrations doing brings and don't panic and give up.

Sometimes your plans fail and having a backup plan or a backup to the backup plan is necessary to stay afloat!

Having said that I want you to be yourself while doing the beats you need to do.

However if at any point in time, you need to talk to someone, remember we are just an email away. Just hola and we shall be there at your front door

Great to have you here

Do have a great day
