Thought for the Day - 100% is actually taking a step back

Posted on 05:34 by Unknown
100% is not giving 'more' really. It is more like stepping back a bit - and being more deliberate and conscious and intense. When we step back and become more aware we give 100%.

Normally when we think 100% we think we need frenzied and uncontrolled action or thought. We try to do too much and nothing works. It all seems pointless and self-defeating. Don't do too much. Step back. And choose to be deliberate and intense in the now.

When our act and thought are deliberate and controlled and purposeful, we are there. 100% is all about deliberate action, about intensity and about living in the now. Try it.
