It's a struggle today

I'm kind of struggling this morning thinking about getting myself going. I feel lazy and am thinking about doing it tomorrow.  Doing what you might ask? Thinking of a word or an idea for a message. All I usually need is a word, so I take some time looking through books I've read, or thinking about what have I done in the past when I just don't feel like doing much. 

As I sit here and think what comes to my mind is the idea that our job is to figure out how to keep ourselves in motion and it isn't always easy. I've read a couple books over the past few years on writing because I really don't view myself as a writer.  What I recall from one of the books is this: if you want to be a writer, start writing. Just sit and write something. So far that's exactly what I've been doing and some good thoughts are coming. I am sitting here kind of chuckling to myself thinking whoever reads this probably thinks I'm a real do-do.

But you know what? I'm getting ideas!  The same is true in the past when I would get like this, thoughts and ideas pop into my head.  Listen: if you want to prospect, go call someone. Don't think about it. Just do it. It's like if you want to write just sit down and write. If you need higher PV for June, go right now and start calling people who you know love these products. Don't just sit around and do nothing. Just start doing what you know you want to do. Don't even finish reading this message. Right now, start making calls.

Whew!  All that and I think I've got a message here. Have a nice day. Do something!

Enthusiastically,
Gary Burke
