Now Go...Do...Be!

One of my personal catch phases in the social media space is "Now Go...Do...Be!"  Four words, two ellipses which represent an incomplete thought or action to be completed with imagination and an exclamation mark. 

This mantra has meant a lot to me over the years.  It has helped me overcome persistent procrastination, mediocrity and unfounded delays. 

The "Now Go" is a call for immediate action in any form and in any direction. "Now Go" requires courage and humility.  Courage to change your current state to something different. Humility to get out of your own way and do something...anything. 

"Do" gives direction and thought to your activities.  In order to "Do" something you have to have some idea about how to begin and what to expect.  "Do" for yourself and others. "Do" what you were born to do and "Do" it positively and to the best of your abilities.  Do not complain or make excuses for your ability to "Do".

"Be" is a state of ownership, accountability and steward ship in what you "Do". "Be" the best unapologetically. Exist in the now and own the future by being what it is you were called to do.  "Be" bold and confident.  "Be" yourself.
