“ Do what you can, with what you have, and do it now. ”
From Stagnant to Strategic: Leveraging Urgency Through Transformation
Yesterday, I spent the morning working on enhancement features for my
new virtual instrument software, PLUSH.
Sometimes I like to work with music on or catch up on a motivational message.
Les Brown always say, “if you don't program your mind, it will be programmed.”
So, I ended up listening to his message ― "develop a sense of urgency in your life and business."
I was doing tedious work but listening to Mr. Brown kept me engaged,
enlightened and entertained.
He’s a beacon of light to people going through adversity.
Having beat cancer several times, I'd say he’s qualified.
Each day he says his prayers and looks to make an impact on someone’s life.
I had to laugh when he said, “if you’re hungry, I’m coming for you.”
In a jovial voice, he says ― "I enjoy being around hungry people…They're so creative! They are relentless…They won't take no for an answer!"
Can I ask you a question?
When it comes to your goals, dreams and desires ― Are You Hungry?
Here's the thing...
I remember setting life goals in college and earlier in my corporate career.
Most of those achievements are now crossed off of my list.
Not to mention, it's 20 years later.
Let that sink in!
What next?
So, I'm still configuring my software and Mr. Brown’s message is hitting home.
This time, I had to pause…
Les quotes George Washington Carver ― "Do what you can, with what you have, and do it now!"
Now I’m in the moment and embracing all of it.
No, I don't have a software development team behind me, but I know it will come when I scale.
No, I don't have major sales numbers yet, but if I focus on the daily effort, the wins will come.
Don’t miss this…
We often get tripped up by focusing on the "when".
Don't fall for it! (wink)
Remember this…
You can only start where you are now with what you have.
The most important thing is to GET STARTED.

🤖 TP’s AI Tool of the Week
Microsoft Copilot (former Bing Chat)
I don’t have a video this week but I will share an Aha! moment.
When using Copilot, try out the “image upload” or “screenshot” methods.
You can ask chat about the image or use the image as the basis to prompt a new image.
When you’re in doubt always ask AI “how would you write a prompt to do XYZ”?
BTW: Don’t use people’s names because it will error out (due to policies etc.)
