Where There is No Initiative There is No Nothing!

There are two kinds of people who never get ahead or amount to anything.  One is the fellow who will not do what he is told, and the other is the fellow who will not do anything more than he is told.”…..The people who get ahead and make a place for themselves always find time to move on their own initiative in any direction necessary for their advancement or benefit. ~ Napoleon Hill

As I look back over my weekend and think about the many conversations that I had with family, friends and acquaintances  it shed much light on the above which I happened to have just read in doing my Monday morning reading.  I also thought about the fact that I told myself that I was going to clean my house on Friday, and then I told myself the same thing again on Saturday, as well as Sunday!  Then I woke up today and told myself that I am going to just hire a maid!   I haven’t cleaned my house, nor have I hired the maid yet.  Nothing has changed!

What is my point on this beautiful Monday afternoon in California?  Without initiative there will be no progress, advancement, change or results!  No matter how bad we may want something to happen and no matter how many hours we spend dreaming about something, or telling ourselves that something is going to happen, NOTHING will happen without action and more importantly, without INITIATIVE!
