You are listening to Les Brown Greatness Radio.

Some decisions are major decisions.

And also there are a lot of small decisions that we don't make, that they tax our minds, they drain our energy.

They create a lot of anxiety and nervousness and mental torment. because we don't take care of it. We decide not

to decide, which is a decision. Deciding to decide to act is a major, major challenge for all

of us at different points in different areas of our lives.

And there are things that happen to us along the way, experiences that we have,

that prevent us from working through the mental block of acting, of doing those things that we know we ought to do.

And so what I want you to think about is what is there that you know you need to do, that you want to do this,

but for some reason or another, you've been holding back.

For some reason or another, you just have not

been able to gather your nerves or be able to work through the procrastinating or putting

it off or justifying or blaming. Some reason or another, you just haven't done it. And you

know you ought to do this. You really want to do this, but you don't know why you haven't done it.

Anybody know what I'm talking about? Raise your hand, please.

Okay, then I've got company here this evening. I'm not talking to myself.

Now first of all, we know that this is not easy.

Because in order to begin to reinvent your life, you've got to make a conscious, deliberate,

determined effort.

That you really have got to put all of yourself into it.

It's very challenging to act, to do those things.

There are times when you're looking at it and you say, I know I need to do this, but I don't feel like it.
