WELCOME TO INSPIRATION NATION
WHERE WE WILL REVIEW 1 chapter of Brian Tracey’s book, “Eat That Frog” each day in FABruary
The Cliff Notes from today’s reading:
“Chapter 9: PREPARE THOROUGHLY BEFORE YOU BEGIN”
Much like with meal prep, before tackling any task one of the best ways to get things done faster is to have everything you need BEFORE you even begin!
1: CREATE A COMFORTABLE WORKSPACE
When everything is laid out neatly and in sequence, you will feel much more like getting on with the J-O-B!
2: GET ON WITH THE JOB
It’s sad how many books never get written, how many degrees never get completed, how many life changing tasks never even GET STARTED, because most people fail to PLAN!! Don’t let this be you!! JUST GET ON WITH IT DIVA!
3: LAUNCH TOWARD YOUR DREAM
Now that prep is complete! It’s time to launch IMMEDIATELY towards your DREAM! Don’t try to wait for perfection! “Get it 80% right and then correct it later!” Let go of fear of rejection, of failure and doubt.
4: TAKE THE FIRST STEP
Once you have started diva, keep going, until it’s 100% done. Do the WORK!
KEY TAKE-A-WAYS from Chapter 9: PREPARE THOROUGHLY BEFORE YOU BEGIN
1. You miss 100% of the shots you don’t take!
2. Your workspace plays an important role in your success! CLEAN YOU SPACE!
3. Just start, get it 80% right then perfect it later!!

I’m Nicole Twyman, a native New Orleanian, who has lived all across the US! Although, my small family of 4 currently calls Los Angeles, CA home. I am a proud 40+ year old mom of a wonderfully energetic and theatrical daughter, and a handsome, scholarly athlete!
While I have worked in corporate America as a certified senior project / program / portfolio manager for Fortune 500 companies like Microsoft, Procter & Gamble & IBM, my passion is service. It has always been my desire to live a life of service to others; which I took every opportunity to explore as an active member of many of my church’s ministries and of my public service sorority, Delta Sigma Theta, Inc.
Well, now I am over the top excited to have the opportunity to serve divas through my very own ministry, Fit, Fyne & Fabulous.
So.. yeah my desk is an organized mess..Lol
I clean it up after the tasks are completed…It works for me. …ts really not that bad. I will work on it..😬
hahaha, you got a system and it works 🙂
Organization definitely helps me. I cannot focus on the task if I don’t have everything in place. Instead I’ll get distracted. I need to use this advice for my workout space. I need to gather all of my gear in one place so that when I’m ready to exercise I won’t have to go searching for things.
