"The biggest handicap to succes s is not a lack
of brains , not a lack of character or willingnes s .
It is a weaknes s in get ting things done."
The Goal Achiever makes their work
count. They Goal Achiever raises the
world’s standard of living. The Goal
Achiever wins the big share of the
world’s rewards.
The Goal Achiever is the person who
has a clearly defined goal, has made a
list of goal achieving activities for each
day and will not permit the “Almosts” to
distract them.
The Goal Achiever has a very small gap
between what they know they must do and
what they actually do.
I recently ran a poll asking people
which knowing-doing gaps they had the
most trouble with. Here are the results:
Exercise - 7%
Healthy eating - 13%
Punctuality - 20%
Keeping office work up-to-date - 27%
Calling/Contacting prospects - 33%
The only way you will form the habit of
doing what needs to be done, regardless of
your likes or dislikes, is to link that activity
with a worthy goal or purpose which can
best be accomplished by doing the activity.
The knowing-doing gap is the reason
behind millions of dollars in lost revenue
in companies, hundreds of missed
opportunities in business, and thousands
of people struggling every day, achieving
results well below their true potential.
But all that can change. It is never too
late to close your own knowing-doing gap
and achieve great results.
