Morning Vibes With Dr. Jerry - the First
Hello and welcome to
#MorningVibesWithDrJerryTheFirst-Episode 223
Title: The Cost Of Doing “Nothing”
I have known for a long
time now that everything in life has its associated cost, every choice we make,
every opportunity we take up, every career path we follow, every relationship
we enter into, every journey we embark on and all that but that knowledge
didn't really hit home until yesterday.
A client had come to
consult me on certain issues in his life and we got talking. He gave me a brief
summary of what his life has been like up until that moment and then in
summarizing his submission he stated and I quote "Sir, I didn't know that
doing nothing over a challenge one has can actually be very expensive"
And I couldn't agree any
less with him. That statement gave me a topic for today's podcast and that's
why I am sharing it with you.
There is a cost associated
with doing nothing, with procrastinating, with practicing shifting cultivation,
that cost is called "opportunity cost" by Economists and at the end
it is quite expensive.
Take a quick second to
embark on a worthwhile journey with me
Let’s imagine for a second
your life is going to stay the same exact way as it is right now for the next 5
years.
You’ll make the same
amount of money.
You’ll have the same
relationships.
Most of all, you’ll have
the same struggles with finding happiness, being more positive, and gaining
clarity and motivation for your goals.
And they won’t EVER go
away.
You’ll always struggle to
think more positively, take focused action on what matters most to you, and
build meaningful, deep relationships.
I want you to vividly
picture what that would look like.
How would you feel?
What would you see when
you look in the mirror?
What would your friends
and family think of you?
I know it may be painful
to think about…but it is important to
understand there is a cost associated with doing NOTHING.
I am not trying to be
harsh or make you feel bad.
But I do know that for
anyone to really be happy and enjoy purposeful living, it is important that they
realize that sometimes the best way to improve their lives is to want more out of life.
If you don’t decide to
take action and make a change then how can you expect things to improve?
The scary thing about the
picture we just painted is that, that scenario is more realistic than you may
realize.
Just think, how long have
you wanted to get back to a happier, simpler life you love waking up to?
If you keep doing what
you’ve been doing for the past year, 2 years, or 5 years and nothing has
changed…then how can you expect the next few years to be any different?
Today, I want to invite
you to do something about it. To lovingly take control and make a real change.
Here’s how to do it:
After going through this
write up and you find yourself already dancing around in this pattern, then do
one of three things - drop a comment on this platform with your issue and we
would get right back to you or pick up your phone and just dial our hotline and
someone will be there to talk with you, or remember that we are just an email
away, so shoot us an email and we would be right back in your inbox before you
could say Jack.
Don’t get stuck in your current patterns.
Most people view paying
for a solution as a cost. Yet they rarely realize there is also a cost to doing nothing.
But you’re not most
people. I know that by simply being a reader of self-improvement material
you’re different and willing to grow and improve.
It’s time to make a change.
Until I come your way
