73 Killing Frogs

Do you know how to kill a frog?
Most people think by placing a frog in boiling water you can kill it.
But it just jumps out.

 

The way to kill a frog is to place it in ordinary water and heat it so slowly there’s never a time when the change is so dramatic the frog makes a decision. It simply stays and boils to death.

 

Having a job /marriage where conditions deteriorate every year or your income doesn’t match the economy, or progress is so slow you never do something about it…
That’s how you kill a person!

 

Step back and take a look at those things you’re not satisfied with.
How did they get there?

One bit at a time.
One action at a time.
One decision at a time.
One drink at a time.

 

Now is the time for you to take a great step in that situation.
Enough of justifications that say, “I’ll give it more time and something will change /happen.”

 

No it won’t.

 

It’s a new day. It got here one second at a time.
Take one thing that you want to change and do it now!
It’s OK to ‘overreact’ just once.
It won’t be, but from your view — too much patience — it’ll seem that way.
