You’re right relative to the built-in excuse – it happens all to often and action is non-existent. Thanks again for sharing Clancy! Mike Clancy,

Great thoughts all around and I definitely agree! You’re right relative to the built-in excuse – it happens all to often and action is non-existent.

Thanks again for sharing Clancy!

"Committed, unless" is my favorite part. "Committed unless," contains a built-in excuse and is really no commitment at all as you implied. One thought I had while reading this post: I would be inclined to qualify the role of prayer in stage #2. There are different types of prayers. One that says, "God, I want you to do this for me." tends to be shallow, self-serving, and little more than a wish. Treating God like a vending machine is unlikely to bear fruit. On the other hand, a prayer devoted to seeking God's council and asking for the necessary "tools" to achieve something consistent with His purpose is the act of a wise and faithful person. As Jim Rohn explained, "Don't pray for fewer problems, pray for more strength." I think this type of prayer belongs with #5. Thanks for your thoughts and keep up the good work. I look forward to more inspiration right here.

Take action. Nice post man! Really nice post and it is true – trying is acceptable to a lot of people when they should just quit trying and DO. Take action. Nice post man!
