3 Must-Hear Takeaways   Sometimes we have to stop planning and just take action. The hardest part of action is getting started. Give yourself grace because small actions lead to a breakthrough.    In this episode, Tom continues the Season 5 theme of words to live by with his explanation of "Action". Tom notes this podcast is about cultivating dreams, purpose, and possibility. But before we can achieve that, we have to be people of action.     The simplest definition of action is "a thing done" or "the accomplishment of a thing over a period of time". Getting things done is taking action. Action is over time, done in stages or with the possibility of repetition.    My nature is a planner, but I have had to grow to where at some point I take action. Sometimes we are educated enough and have enough details to where we need to take action and allow the path to become clear while we're on the journey.    You are capable of learning as you go. Stop thinking and researching, just go do. Since we don't know what we don't know, it keeps us open to possibilities we might not have considered if we waited until we had all the facts.    Taking action is the energy we need, but it can be one of the hardest steps. When a rocket is launched, the most energy spent is getting off the ground. Action produces momentum. In life, there is usually more talk than action. But inaction doesn't get celebrated, bring wins, or give us a breakthrough.    A year of action means taking the steps to accomplish all the things we've been dreaming about. Give yourself grace for the process. Part of the journey is taking the small action to achieve the breakthrough down the road. It takes time, so break it down and figure out what needs action today, this week or this month.   So, what are you waiting on to get started? You are unique and special. Now, it's time to take action and get started — write that book, launch that business, take responsibility for your health, improve your finances. www.ourcultivatedlives.com
