Don't Get Caught In The Activity Trap

I was reading an article earlier about the difference between action and activity and how most of us fall into the activity trap.

Action is what achieves our goals, moves our business and personal lives forward, produces what we wnat out of life and actually gets the job done. It is very rewarding but is also very likely to be difficult and challending.

Activity is all the things we fill our lives with in order to avoid taking actions. Strangely enough activity often looks better than action to people around us and even to ourselves. 

Here are some points to know if you have fallen into the activity trap:

• You never have time to think;
• You work through lunch and don't have a definite finish time in the evening;
• You don't have time for exercise;
• You don't have time dor a personal life;
• You never have time to do the things you really want to do and
• You are constantly doing things which anyone else could do.
