There is tremendous power in the gear called Do! We have all heard Nike’s iconic saying, “Just Do It,” but may not always realize the importance of its application. Often people sit around and wait for the perfect moment, the ideal weather, or the perfect scenario to get things accomplished when most of the time, all that was needed was to “Just Do It.” Consider these tips from the wisest man that ever lived.

Hallelujah! There is no better day than today to put your life in the gear called Do!
