“Doing The Right Thing Is Always The Right Thing…” – Unknown
I’m not sure who originally said this. I know I have heard Zig Ziglar, Tony Robbins, Russell Brunson, Gary Vaynerchuck, and many others all say similar sayings. I have heard many people use variations of this long before I started following any of these guys.
Now I haven’t asked them personally, but being a follower of them all, I would take a wild ass guess and say that each of them have said it because it’s true and they wholeheartedly believe it. Really, it just seems like common sense to me.
So what’s not to believe? It’s true! Then why is so hard to do? If something is the right thing to do that’s means it’s right and therefore it can’t be wrong. End of story. There isn’t anything to discus, nothing to debate or argue about Just do the right thing now and stop thinking about.
Again I ask why is it so hard to do? Is it just me or are there plenty out there just like me that make decisions harder than they have to be? Decisions that don’t really leave much room for discussion, yet I can burn tons of my energy and waste countless hours of my precious time pondering, evaluating, weighing the pros and cons, looking at all sides, exploring every option, and on and on. When all I need to do is stop thinking about it and just do the right thing. Why do I make it so difficult? Do I just have to make extra sure, one more time? Is it fear? Is it self-consciousness? Is it stupidity? Is it the need for drama or attention because even negative attention is attention. Is it a combination of all these things?
After years of learning the hard way by doing the wrong thing I would love to say I always do the right thing today. That would be a lie, however, but it sure gets easier the more I try. It takes less energy; mental, emotional, and spiritual. It’s like a muscle and the more you exercise your do the right thing muscle the stronger it gets. The stronger it gets, the easier it is to do the right thing next time. You do the right thing then move on and focus on the next right thing. No need to mind trip and worry if you did the right or become consumed with whatever you did, how you did it or how you should have done it. You place all your energy on the present and doing the next right thing today.
So take it from me and the wise guys before me and just do the right thing.
