Good Intentions

The Law of Diminishing Intent states:
The longer you wait to do something you should do now, the greater the odds that you will never actually do it. It argues that the further away we get from our original spark, idea, or energy surrounding a goal or plan, the less likely we are to achieve it. Actually, forget about achieving it – as we wait longer and longer, the odds continue to decrease that we will even do anything.

“We intend to take action when an idea strikes us. We intend to do something when the emotion is high. But if we don’t translate that intent into action fairly soon, the urgency starts to dimmish. A month from now, the passion is cold. A year from now, it can’t be found.”
-Jim Rohn
