Which Do You Get Paid For?
Hughism: Actions are to feelings as 9 is to 1.
Everyone wants to talk about feelings. It is everywhere you look. People are saying things like:
I don’t make more sales calls because it makes me feel bad.
I don’t open my own business because I would not not feel safe.
If I started my own business, my feelings might get hurt if people were critical of me.
I did not get the project done because I did not feel good.
Bullfish.
Actions are to feelings as 9 is to 1. What you do is at least 9 times more important in any way that matters than what you feel. No one has ever given me a check because of what I felt, but I have gotten many because of what I have done.
He he. I have told people, “You can feel whatever you want, but if it isn’t your intuition talking, ignore the feeling and go with the action”
good advice Hugh!
