For example, gyms all over the world are packed with people who start doing exercise in Dec.

This happens every year.

Then they give up in Jan.

How many of you have set up New Year goals before, start working towards it in Dec, and gave up afterwards?

It’s because you don’t care that much about reaching the goal.

You give up because you don’t stick to the action plan.

Or you think you won’t be able to reach your goal this year.

But the point is – who cares about the time?!

A goal is something you want to do in your life.

If you can reach you goal today, why not do it now?

Why wait till December before making those changes?

Many make a goal for the sake of a new year, but they don’t want the goal enough to change now.

Don’t be one of them.

P.S If you don’t believe your goal will make a huge difference in your life, just don’t do it. Because your trying is actually wasting the time of those who treat their goals seriously. e.g. new year gym-goers occupy the machines, so regular gym-goers have to spend time waiting. If you’re going to give up anyways, why start? Why stop others who take their goals seriously? Why are you wasting our time?
