I love this guy's butt-kickin', no-nonsense style.
"For starters, stop TALKING, THINKING, or WRITING about your problem and start DOING something. I'm not trying to be glib, but trying to make a point. Mainly, the only way to get things done is to ACT."

"[The] request for a tip on how to get motivated enough to break the cycle of laziness is based on the fallacy that motivation precedes action. Actually, it is the other way round. That is, it is ACTION that creates motivation. First you act. Then you experience the six benefits mentioned above. And those benefits motivate you to do more. Well, then, it is clear the time to act is now. After all, if you don't make things happen, things will happen to you. Here's another point, we become what we do. So, we become a person of action by taking action."
Gee, that sounds a LOT like Aristotle.
So instead of writing this useless (so far) blog, I'm going to put down the laptop, back away slowly and ACT. See ya.
