Action means progress, and progress means going forward from where you now are. Planning action is the key to your next move.

Remember: Every day you either use time or lose time! Your objective now is to use every valuable hour. Go a step farther in favoring yourself and set up a planned week in which action occurs every day in support of your power dreams. Start with tomorrow at the latest. This will become the most productive week you have ever enjoyed, and it will be devoted to making dreams come true!

Here are a couple of tips on such planning.action:
First, consider each power dream separately. Decide what the first action step is, then the second, the third, and so forth. Make the timing of these steps answer the “when?” you listed. I urge you to use a pencil and paper here, to be sure of yourself.

After you have put all 30 power dreams through this process, pick out all of the actions steps that are timed for the coming week, and list them on your week’s program.

Now you have a working plan. You have a plan for doing things that is logical, because it is based on step-by-step progress. The greatest things mankind has built, and man’s greatest accomplishments have been the result of this kind of action.

The Wright Brothers? This is the way they made that airplane fly at Kitty Hawk! Alexander Graham Bell? This is the way he got that first message to travel across the wire! Your dreams about doing things, having things, being a better person? This is the way to make them come true. This is the secret!
