The Best Way to Get Something Done!

Thirty-eight years ago this month, I first visited Disneyland.

It was August.

It was hot.

It was crowded.

And it was a disaster.

Why? Because I didn’t start early.

Rope Drop? More like Nope Drop.

By the time I got to the gates, there was already a three-hour wait for the best attractions. My day was spent in lines, in the heat, and in a haze of frustration.

But that miserable first visit taught me a lesson I’ve carried ever since…one that changed my life, transformed my teaching, and became a core message in my keynotes and coaching:

Start Early. Start Now. Stop Waiting.

Or as Walt Disney once said: “The way to get started is to stop talking and begin doing!”

This month, I’m inviting you to do the same.

Welcome to the AUGUST OF ACTION: four weeks of clarity, courage, and consistent stories about the power of getting started and the cost of waiting too long. No more coasting. No more stalling. No more trusting in “tomorrowland.”

Just real progress, made in real time, by real people, like you, who are ready to stop thinking and start doing.

And yes. That includes me.

You see, I put the “pro” in procrastination. I dreamed up The History of Disneyland course years before I ever taught it. I let fear, doubt, and perfectionism keep me stuck in “someday.” Until the day I ran over my iPhone and iPad and realized I wasn’t just destroying my electronics. I was running over my goals, dreams, and potential.

So, I stopped thinking. And I started doing.

Total game-changer!

Now, it’s your turn….

Next month, I’m launching something I’ve been dreaming about for years:

🎯 The Action Academy: Stop Thinking! Start Doing!!!

A brand-new online community created to help you break through procrastination and finally follow through.

I’m building it with Ali Potter, a licensed clinical social worker with more than twenty years of experience helping people uncover the emotional root of procrastination. Ali brings deep expertise, practical tools, and compassionate insight into the patterns that keep us stuck and how we can break them to finally move forward.

Because let’s be real:

You’re not lazy.

You’re not undisciplined.

And you’re not broken.

You’re just stuck.

And Ali and I are here to help you get unstuck. Together. With the support, structure, and encouragement to finally take action.

Here’s what I want you to imagine:

Come September, only four months remain to 2025.

What if you made them count?

Imagine finally losing the weight.

Writing the book.

Starting the business.

Rebuilding momentum and carrying it forward into 2026 and beyond.

Not alone.

But with community.

With accountability.

And with tools that get to the heart of why you procrastinate—and how to finally move past it.

That’s what The Action Academy is all about.

We officially launch Wednesday, September 3.

No pressure. No perfect timing. No more waiting.
