There's nothing worse than hesitating, missing an opportunity, and then living with regret. We're going to stop that today. Welcome to the Millionaire Success Habits podcast. All success starts right here. Hey, it's Dean, and I'm so excited. This is the Better Life series where in under 10 minutes, I'm going to show you what I believe are the greatest strategies, tactics, tools, secrets that I've used to really move the needle in my Life in under 10 minutes. I'm so excited that you're here right now. Yes, I get amped up. Yes, I'm excited. Today I want to talk about the three ways to take action immediately so you don't miss out. If you think about it, that old saying, he who hesitates, loses. Like, you stand on the sidelines so long and you hesitate so much that you end up wearing someone else's name on the back of your jersey. The heck with that. I want your name on the back of your jersey because you're the winner. You're the one scoring touchdowns, metaphorically, meaning the success you want, whether that's more income, a new business, taking your business to another level, your family, your body, whatever it is, your relationships. And I want you to have those tools. And during the Better Life week, because we all want a better life. We all want to go to another level. I want to give you the strategies that change. So here's the three steps to taking action immediately. Number one, soon as you see something, you know, like, I need to do this, it's one of those things, not a guess, like, filter it out first, get rid of all the bad things. But if there's something like, I know I need to do this, the first thing, what I do and what I'd suggest to do is what is immediately write it down. I write it down in the Better Life journal. We'll talk about that in a minute. Oh, my God, I'm so excited. Again, if you're watching this video, all four cool colors of my Better Life journal. I've been journaling with a process I call outcome journaling for over 25 years. I didn't name it that back then. I just found a way to get things done. Planners didn't work. They overwhelmed me. Apps too confusing. So I created a process to outmaneuver everybody I knew to go faster, go quicker, reduce complexity and overwhelm, get my creativity at peak and get the results I want. I did it in my journal. So what I would do immediately is write down the best possible outcome. So right now, you're faced with something. I got to take an action. Am I going to start this company? Am I going to do the marketing? Am I going to take this new job? Am I going to start this relationship right now? I would get my journal and I'd write down the best possible outcome. Three things. What's the best possible outcome? If I do this fast and it works, here's the three things it could be. Dream. Let yourself feel it. Pretend it's six months from now and you took the action and it's working. You're like, I got this. I got amazing. Let your body feel it. Let your physiology change. Right. So best possible outcome. If you took action, write down three things. But then some people move towards pleasure. That's great, but what's the opposite of pleasure? Pain. Then immediately in your journal, write down the three worst things that could happen if you don't take action. My life will be exactly the same. I'll miss this opportunity to start my own mastermind, to jump into real estate, to get this relationship, to have this personal trainer, to live to my full potential, to impact lives, to serve God, whatever it is. Think of the three worst things that could happen if you don't take action immediately. Again. How long do you want to stand on the sidelines watching other people play the game? I know how this goes. You could say maybe no, but I know. I've been there. That's when envy starts to build. Then envy turns even worse. It turns to jealousy. And you're only jealous because you're on the sidelines and someone else is in the game. Even if you're in the game getting beat up and you drop the ball, at least you're in the game and you're learning. Standing on the sidelines, all you can do is critique. Remember, they don't build statues of critics. And I don't want anybody in the stands telling me how to play the game if I'm in there getting beat up. Get in the game, get beat up. The only way is through action. So what's number one? Three things, the best three things that can happen if you do it. The second? What are the three worst things if it doesn't. Imagine if you look ahead five years from now and your life is exactly the same. Nothing changed in your life. You haven't made the impact you want. You haven't made the money you want. You haven't fixed the relationship you want. Yes, you. Some people are motivated by pain more than pleasure. So feel that in your soul. Feel that. Like, look in the mirror and say it's five years from now and nothing's changed. Ugh. Write it down. Write it down in your journal and look at it. And then the third thing, here's the one that really pushes it over the edge is immediately think about and write it down a time in your past when you were scared to take action, but you took action and the end result was amazing. Now sometimes in life you take an action and it didn't work out, but you're still so happy that you got over your fear. You made it happen. I don't know about you. My son was little. We were in Cabo and he was so scared, we went ziplining. He was probably too young to zipline, I'll just be honest with you. And it was huge. I was scared and I kept going. Yeah, we're good. Thumbs up. I was a little nervous, right? So he was scared. He was literally shaking. Maybe I was a bad parent, I don't know. But I want him to overcome his fear. We harness him up. It was a double. So I held onto him and we zip lined. We're going like 40 miles an hour. We were probably a couple hundred feet off the ground from mountaintop to mountaintop. When we got to the other side, I watched this level of happiness, joy, like just ooze from him. He was like, he overcame the fear. He felt so good. And it set a precedent. When you're a little scared, just do it and think how you feel. So this is the moment to write down and think about a time in your life when you were scared to take action or you hesitated to take action. The hesitation, what did that feel like when you missed your opportunity? What? Remember that once, another time you took action and it felt great. Think about that. Fill yourself with confidence. Fill yourself with courage. So now you are armed with the strategies to move. When you say, these are the three best things, I can feel it. These are the three worst things. If I don't do it, holy crap. And here's how I felt the last time I did it and the last time I didn't. I felt like this. Okay, I got the emotion and that's when you take action. I'm so excited to be sharing this stuff with you. I know it's simple, to the point. You may have heard it before, but I'm going to encourage you this time. Actually hear it, actually do it.
