Time To Get In The Game

Your goals and dreams will never be achieved if you don’t take action.  You can remain stuck, simply dreaming about what you want to achieve or you can get yourself in the game and start taking action.  It can be scary to get in the game because it’s outside of your comfort zone and going into the wild unknown.  But, it can be so worth it!  Imagine what you could and would achieve if you just took action towards your dreams in life.  It’s time to get in the game and finally achieve the goals that have been on your heart.

Sidelines

Right now you’re probably on the sidelines.  You’re not in the game.  You’re just watching the game happen from the safety of the sidelines.  You’re cheering others on and avoiding any obstacles that could possibly arise if you were to get in the game.  Maybe you don’t like challenges.  Perhaps you’re afraid of getting hurt.  There are many reasons why you don’t get into the game and take action towards your goals in life.  However, this mentality is only going to keep you stuck on the sidelines.  You’re never going to achieve your goals and dreams from there.

Reasons And Excuses

You might be coming up with all the reasons why you can’t or shouldn’t get in the game.  Maybe it’s not the right time, you’re too busy, you’re not ready, etc.  There are so many reasons and you can come up with a range of excuses as to why you should just remain on the sidelines.  Perhaps it’s the fear of failure, embarrassing yourself, or working extremely hard and yet still not achieving your goal.  You need to identify whatever it is that’s keeping you on the sidelines.  Otherwise, you’ll never be able to overcome these mental blocks that are preventing you from getting in the game.

Get In the Game

Next, it’s time to push yourself onto the field and get yourself in the game.  Congratulate yourself for taking one small action that pulls you off the sidelines and into the game.  It’s a scary place to be but you’re on the field!  From here, you can make pivots, turns, changes, adjustments, and modifications.  You’re in it!  You’re taking action and getting feedback on how to play the game and improve your results.  Sure, you might be slow.  You might not know all the right moves.  But, no one is an expert when they first step onto the field.  However, through taking action, you’re learning and growing.  You’re becoming a better player that will eventually get to the goal line.  It’s not easy and it’s going to take time.  Achieving your goal is not an overnight success story.  You have to keep it.  The first step is leaving the sidelines and getting into the game.

Game Mentality

Your mentality changes when you’re in the game.  You behave and think differently when you’re taking action.  By taking action, you’re developing a strong sense of self belief that you can overcome obstacles and achieve your goal.  You’re seeing progress and building momentum.  You’re motivated to continue taking action because you can see the goal line and what you’re working to achieve.  When you encounter a challenge and struggle, you don’t give up.  You stay focused and keep taking action.  You see that success is possible and start to believe that it is inevitable for you.  This mental shift happens when you take action and get in the game.

You’ve taken the big leap off the sidelines and onto the field.  You’ve made the important decision to get in the game.  You’re taking action, making strategic plays, and you can see what’s possible for your future.  Now you have to keep going!  Do not give up on your goals and dreams in life.  You’re never going to get the information you need to achieve your goal by sitting on the sidelines.  Make some wrong moves so that you receive the feedback you need to get to where you want to go.  It’s better than just sitting on the sidelines watching everyone else achieve their goals.  It’s time to get in the game and start taking action towards the life of your dreams.  You can do this.  Get in the game today!
