Are You a Picky Eater?

Are you a picky eater? Similar to that child whose parents send them to visit for the weekend, with a list of “what not to eat,” that comes in its own composition notebook. Irritating isn’t it? By the time you figure out what’s appropriate for breakfast, the child is left with one dry waffle and Pediasure, or better yet a grapes sandwich.

Not you? Your appetite is a bit better? Well, what about being a picky eater with life? We’ve all done it – find reasons and made excuses to avoid those hard decisions that would make our lives easier and/or better. Maybe you didn’t go for the promotion at work because you were afraid you’d have to work longer hours, even though the experience and raise would make you feel better about your job and yourself. Or you haven’t tried out that new restaurant, because your friend said they don’t like its location.

Too often we miss out on great experiences because we are being picky. Dreams stay written in book because we’re afraid to turn them into reality. We have to move from dreaming to saying, saying to doing and doing with no regrets. The business isn’t going to start on its own, the book isn’t going to read itself and the promotion has to be requested.

Stop being a picky eater and turn tonight’s dreams into tomorrow’s dos.
