Often the so-called 'secret' is sitting right under their very nose.Let's face it, unless you're naturally gifted, making asuccess of anything involves a whole lot of hard work. A lotof the time, the work we're faced with is often boring andmonotonous.
Wouldn't it be great if it were fun? Ding, dong!Are the lights starting to flash, and bells starting tosound inside your head yet?I'm tempted to carry on rambling at this stage, but I knowyour just itching to find out what a GOOBI is. Am I right?Well I'll put you out of your misery right now! GOOBI issimply a mnemonic for Get Out Of Bed Inducer.
It's thatthing that gets you out of bed in the morning and puts aspring in your step. It's also been described elsewhere, asyour "Friday night essence".
Think about it, what would youhappily spend Friday night working on instead of dining withfriends or watching a movie?I was reminded of the GOOBI concept recently, whilstwatching a film. The title of the film escapes me, which isprobably best because it was rubbish.
If I was to tell youthe title you'd only go watch it, and then you'd be sayingwhy did he mention that film it was rubbish.Anyway, at one point in the film, the leading character madea statement that struck a chord with me. He said "The secretto success is to find something you love doing, and do itfor the rest of your life!" Of course, he was talking aboutfinding your GOOBI.So here comes the hard part.
To find your GOOBI you have tostart thinking for yourself. I know that bit's going to comeas a shock to some of you, as a lot of people will go to theends of the earth to avoid thinking for themselves.
Isn't itjust a lot easier to run with the flock and let the shepherdand his dog make all the decisions for you?If you've just answered "Yes" to that last part, then all Ihave to say to you is "Baaah!". For those of you who don'tspeak Sheep, roughly translated this means "You'd be betteroff grazing with the flock, you haven't got what it takes".If you think that thinking is hard, you ain't seen nothingyet!(Authors note: "think that thinking is hard" is it me ordoes that have chicken and egg connotations? Never mind,hopefully you see my point.
Let's get back to the plot.)What do you really love to do? It's a simple question; sodon't try to make it a hard one. We're talking aboutconstructive exercises here so don't cheat by saying"Nothing".
Anyway, I'm sure you'd get bored doing absolutelynothing for the rest of your life.The answer you come up with should be your true vocation. Ifyou're totally honest with yourself, then if you do thething you love for the rest of your life, you can't fail tobe successful.
You'll literally do anything you need to do,to carry on doing what you love to do. Hey, have I justinvented a new tongue twister, or another piece of nonsenserhyme?So, go find your GOOBI! You know it makes sense, which afterreading what I've just written, is more than I do.
