Day 27 – leading by demonstrating action

Yesterday, you conducted performance reviews with each team member and created action plans or next steps. Today is the time to take that action, demonstrating that you are your word, not only to your team, but to yourself.

This is where discipline comes in—doing what you have to do, even if you don't want to do it.

Don't tell the world what you are going to do—show it!

Avoid procrastination. Procrastination is the process of habitually putting things off. It is tempting to make excuses such as "I don't have the time" or "This could take forever; I'll do it when I have a spare day."

Procrastination will cause you to miss deadlines, leading to lower productivity and wasted time. It will lower your motivation, heighten your stress, and generate frustration and anger. Is this the way you want to live, or work?

Take control of your life now! Reverse the procrastination habit by being as clever about completing things as you have been about putting them off...
