Monday Morning Match is a quick post – maybe a quote, inspirational story or idea – intended to spark some motivation inside each of you so your week gets off to a fantastic start on Monday morning.

What are you waiting for?

How’s that exercise plan you planned on starting a month ago?

Have you as consistent with your daily prospecting efforts that you need to be in order to achieve your goals?

Did you make your quarterly tax payment or are the funds still sitting in your checking account…begging to be spent?

When are you going to get those market updates mailed out or that neighborhood campaign to the printers?

Still thinking about registering for that class, seminar or convention?

How much longer will you wait before sitting for the new head shot photograph or shooting that neighborhood video you swore would be done last year?

Procrastination is the thief of time.

– John Miller

It’s natural to wait when we are trying to change things. When we know we need to leave our comfort zone or do something that isn’t status quo, standing on the sidelines just feels…safer. The real question is “are we waiting…or hesitating?”

Here’s an idea; Let’s all take some chances this week. Let’s get comfortable with being risky. Knock on some doors, call some prospects, set some appointments. Hand-write a few personal notes or leave some comments on some Facebook pages you haven’t visited in a while. Retweet someone, comment on a blog post or email a few customers from last year…just to check in and ask how they’re doing.

Either do something on this side of the fence or the other side of the fence but you can’t just sit on the fence and do nothing.

If you’re waiting for success to find you, there’s something you need to know; You’ll have to go out and get it. Success doesn’t come to you, you’ve got to go to it. Turns out…success is waiting for you.
