All You Ever Need For Success Is Just To Do It!
I sat down to think about it and put some thoughts together when I reached a blank.I was suprised when no list came to my mind, I thought this was going to be an easy task.. After reflecting deeply on all my experiences, countries visited and friendships formed I was resigned to ask myself 'How did you do it Caroline? How did you manage to live in 5 countries and have incredible adventures through 33 countries? What qualities do you possess that allowed you to do all that?' "I just did it," was my response. '"I just did it!" There is no other answer. Sure there were many other qualities and character traits that gave me the ability to have the experiences but none of them really mattered unless I stepped onto that plane and did it. People always said to me how lucky and brave I was and wished they could do the same. But I never could quite understand where they were coming from because I knew they could do the same. For me it was easy, luck played no part, I just did it. I just stepped on the plane and went and never looked back. I knew what I wanted and I took ACTION! Did I possess many strong success traits before I did it? Probably not or none that I was aware of. I was young and immature and didn't know anything about anything. All I knew was that I wanted to travel and so I just did it. I just hopped on that plane and went. Did I have a lot of money? No I turned up in London with no home, no job and a couple of hundred bucks. That didn't matter, I knew what I wanted and so I just did it! Did I have much experience? No! It was the first time I had lived away from the safety and security of my parents. My first experience living on my own was in the city of London, knowing no one, with no money. Experience didn't matter, I just did it. I didn't have support either. I was on my own but I found a lot of support and made great friendships after I just did it! Did I develop strong character traits along the way that helped me to continue my journeys and grow as a person? Absolutely! I wouldn't be who I am today had I not travelled. It shaped me as an amazingly, strong and confident person. Would I be this person now if I never took the action toward my dream in the first place? No! Thank God, I just did it! What is it in your life that you want to do or achieve? What is it that is holding you back? Lack of money or experience?-- irrelevant. Lack of friends or support?-- irrelevant. Wrong timing? No strengths, skills or talents? All irrelevant. You can find a million reasons why you can't do it but that's not going to get you what you want and shape you to be who you want to be. You've got nothing to lose but everything to gain. All that matters is what you want. Nike said it the best- 'Just do it!' Those 3 simple words speak so much about the call to your action. Just take the first step. All the rest will come later. You're missing out on a wild, fun ride because of your inability to take action. Just do it and success will find you! Just do it.....
