May the 4th be With You

I am not a Star Wars fanatic. I do like the movies and have seen them all. They are entertaining and certainly something all ages can enjoy together. There is one saying from Yoda that I keep taped over my work area. I have found it to be very true. And a needed kick in the butt when I need it. 

"Do or do not...there is no try". Think about it. When someone gives you the response "I'll try" it almost always means they aren't going to do it. I'll try to make time for that. I'll try to call you. Let's try to get together. These things don't happen. It's almost always a built in excuse. In order to get things done it takes a more positive mindset. I will do that today. I'll call you tonight. I will see you tomorrow. The difference between those who accomplish much and those who stay in the same place is just going ahead and doing something. And once that forward momentum gets going it's amazing how far you can go. 

So follow the advice of the funny looking green man with the big ears. He knows what he's talking about. Do it.
