Chapter 8 Decision: The
Mastery of Procrastination

“You have a brain and mind of your own. Use it and reach your
own decisions. If you need facts or information from other
people, to enable you to reach decisions, as you probably will
in many instances; acquire these facts or secure the information
you need quietly, without disclosing your purpose.

“Let one of your first decisions be to Keep a closed mouth and
open ears and eyes.
” Napoleon Hill

When things are not right, something must change. Fine that desire
starting to burn deep within the inter-spirit or subconscious mind.
Hear and feel the decision that has been made. Decide things are
going to change, and a new path will be blazed. Now with faith in
that decision, a course of action was chosen. With persistence,
action steps were taken. A group of the like-minded (mastermind)
was put together. An organized plan has been activated and now
followed.

Now, it is true that the paragraph above does describe the events
leading to the founding of our nation. The burning desire of our
founding father, beginning with Samuel Adams and John Hancock.
The decision to start a correspondence group (mastermind). With
faith, persistence, and plans this great nation was formed. I
am now speaking of another desire. This desire is not mine alone,
I feel that I can speak for anyone in this study of Think and Grow Rich.

“Sometimes it’s the smallest decisions that can change your life
forever.” Keri Russell

The desire is to take back our personal freedom is a game-changer
The freedom to dream big dreams. Freedom to think for ourselves,
for self-determination, and not having to live under the “opinions”
of others. Ability to envision the personal wealth and abundance
opened before us.  Knowing we can stop the procrastination with a
decision today and stay with that decision. We can live in faith
the future is in our hands.

How can I be so sure? I found my answer in this mastermind group
at Mentoring for Free.  Of this I am sure, the better me, my
purpose, and my accumulated fortunes are what I have found here
in the wisdom, skills, and support shared. I have been free to
formulate my own thoughts, to ignite the persistence drive within
me. With wisdom from this mastermind, I have a plan to follow. Now
it is up to me to follow and put action to that plan.

“Note, also, (with great personal benefit), that the power which
gave this nation its freedom, is the self-same power that must be
used by every individual who becomes self-determining.”

My self-determination can be realized. Thanks to Michael, Bob, and
each mentor in this group. I am grateful for what each has given
to me. I will pass this on to each one of those who download the
E-Book and allows me to mentor them.
