Still
"Waiting"For Your Dream Results?

Picture your life as
a trip to a global amusement park. The opportunities surrounding
you in life are the “rides.” At any popular amusement
park, there is often a line at almost every ride or event, your
learning curve. How do you handle the waiting?
Every ride or opportunity
has a fantastic appeal. You ultimately want to ride everything in
an amusement park, except rides you may think are too risky or too
boring. Imagine yourself in line waiting for the ride you came upon
first. In line you have progressed forward some and have a long
time more to wait. You look up and see right over there is another
ride that looks even more exciting so you go over there and get
in line for it. You move forward a little in that line and just
outside the que you notice the most exciting show! There’s
not too much of a line for it yet so you can be near the front and
get in fast, “ground level.” That is when you notice
show time arrives in about 30 minutes. While you’re waiting
for show time you have lots of time to think. You realize you have
just spent a few hours at the park already and have not ridden even
one ride. You decide it was a mistake to leave the first one and
change so you go back to the first one. While you are in the first
line again, you realize why you changed to the other line in the
first place and you really wanted to ride the other ride more so
you change “just this once more.”
Can you see how with
a strategy like that you will never get to ride any ride? You could
have ridden EVERY ride if you would have just seen the first one
through, then had gone to the next one and the next. When you entered
the park you were probably handed a map. If you had the patience
to sit down and create a plan, connecting the dots for velocity
of doing all or in order of favorites and stuck to that plan, you
would have had time to do every single thing in the park and with
no stress or frustration. You would have certainty that you would
get around to each. Then, as you went along, if you did notice one
ride taking way too long because of its popularity, you could have
skipped it if necessary to get the most variety or you could stay
all day in that one line if it were worth it.
Opportunity is like that.
You MUST look around you and see the niches available. And you MUST
know the niches that match your deepest core passion. If you’re
like me, you can see something you like in just about any opportunity.
But does that opportunity match your core passion? The first opportunity
or “ride” you take on must be the one that is the most
deeply matching you to make sure you are fulfilled by the end of
the “ride,” the results. Having done this first, you
will be able to ride the less compelling fun rides as well and with
more joy since you are fulfilled in your deepest core of who you
are.
There are people who
just seem to know themselves well and know what they want very early
in life. Most people don’t. They graduate from high school
and even go on to college having no idea what they want their lives
to be about. Are you one of those people? If so, you could wait
in a lot of long lines getting almost to the mark and then falling
short because you skipped the basic step of knowing yourself . Then
how to move through the line with the most velocity possible to
the result. You may not even know for sure what “ride”
or opportunity you even want in the sea of opportunities available.
Find the one key element
to who you are first and then find the opportunity that most quickly
gives you an access for expressing yourself. Then, you will save
many years of “waiting” and will live a life of untold
joy and wealth if you wish from this point forward. You are your
own guarantee.
