Moenie tot dan wag nie. Make it happen.

everyone says that. 

 

I understand that one must look out for himself, but how do you make it happen????

Moenie tot dan wag nie. Make it happen.

Agreed! 

 

My boys and I once joined Kingsley Holgate when he started his trip around the outline of Africa. I wanted the boys to understand that adventure is within our reach. The start was at Cape Point and it was an attempt at a new world record for the biggest number of Landrovers in convoy. Yes, it was successful, but what I took from that day was something Kingsley told a reporter.

 

He was asked why HE gets to do all this amazing stuff while the rest of us just talk and say things like "one day when" and "I really want to", "when I can afford it"! His answer was simple: 

 

He said that he takes his diary and he WRITES it in there! Then it is a TARGET and he starts to WORK towards making everything else fall into place.

 

I have since found that it WORKS for me. Decide on WHEN it is realistic to do, make it a firm DATE, then WORK towards that, save the money, remove the obstacles, get others (wife) on board, and it WILL HAPPEN!

 

Edit: Works for bike races, trips into Africa, trips around the world!
