Taking Action with Resolutions.

Hey folks,

If you know me, you know I'm not a big fan of resolutions. A resolution is a firm decision to do or not do something. But "decisions" aren't real unless accompanied by action. Hell, without action a decision isn't a decision. A decision must act on the world.

A resolution distances you from action. It's another filter through which to view and consider action. Another middleman. For many, the resolution replaces action. Your nervous system makes the "resolution" and convinces itself you've actually done something.

If you resolve, it must be immediately followed by action.

Don’t wait. Don’t linger and let malaise set in. Use the dopamine burst you got from your resolution and then immediately put it to work by taking action.

That’s what I do, and it’s worked pretty well for me. I just get going right away. How about you? Tell me what you resolve to do and then how you actually put that into action, right now, in the comment section of our latest Instagram post.
