Part of our daily decision involves choosing to stick to the plan for the day, or nah. We, Filipinos, have this term called “Mañana” habit where we tend to delay plans for an uncertain future. But I ask, until when are we going to wait for things to happen? Fear haunts us. Comfort limits us. And most of the time, laziness drags us. For a person like me who tend to put my schedule on a planner, the factors I’ve stated do influence my daily action. You know? when things turned out to be inconvenient, we just want to leave it. In millennial terms – ditch it, and let those plans become a drawing. Not good.
It’s quite hard to overcome laziness especially when your body feels like lying on the bed. Give yourself the decent sleep that you deserve. What major impact would it bring when you missed one appointment? Tell you what, it does. And it’s a domino effect. It takes time to plan. Remember? I think, thirty minutes could be the least time that I needed to plan-out my week. It squeezes my mind and also gives me excitement to look forward for the coming days ahead. “Excitement” is the key word, why would you deprive yourself making your plan happen just because (you name it)… This is for me and my friends who keeps on doubting. Let’s skip these excuses and proceed with one simple suggestion. Show up! When in doubt, do yourself a favor and just do what is planned! Your body and state of mind might not be in the condition for that certain moment but it will adjust and suddenly you’ll thank yourself for having courage to just do. Morning jog? Show up! Time to start your task? Show up! You might be surprised 5 minutes after, you’re enjoying what you’re doing. Showing up is a great way to start. PS. By any chance that you are still not convinced I'll leave this quote here: “You don’t have to be great to start, but you have to start to be great.” – Zig Ziglar
