Outrageous Courage

.

Today it was revealed to me in my meditation that although many take the steps to change their lives, read books, buy programs and attend workshops, they are STUCK. Many are unable to produce the results that are promised in the materials they use. So they simply buy another book or program, which ends up with the same results.

One of the most critical KEYS in getting what you want is courage. YOU must find the courage to decide that you are going to change. Then you must apply the warriors preparation (see my previous post on that subject).

This means leaving behind all of the known solutions, beliefs and paradigms. For most that is more difficult to do as we often are unable to define our own belief systems or paradigms as they are so familiar and powerful.


Here is an email I received from Joe Vitale yesterday -

When people ask me how I went from
homeless to bestselling author, all I can tell them is I never let go of my dream and I persistently and relentlessly worked toward making it a reality.

And I worked at my dream while I was homeless, in poverty, struggling with no job at all or jobs I hated so bad I cried driving to and from them.

I never gave up.

I kept going to the library, kept reading self-help and self-improvement books, and kept applying what I read.

It all helped me.

But it wasn't enough.

I needed something more.

The giant breakthrough came when I got
a personal coach.

I wrote about this in my book, "The Attractor Factor," and I've told the story many times.

While you'll grow with books and audios -- and you should keep reading them as nourishment for your mind and soul -- the dramatic leaps to new levels will come more easily and quickly with a coach.

So you see even the most advanced gurus required help from an outside source. Let me explain the reasons.

1. It is extremely difficult to see your own reflection regarding your beliefs and paradigms.

2. We often resist changing what is familiar, and even if changes are made they are difficult to maintain.

3. Without understanding the mind, knowing how to control it and having the tools and awareness to push ourselves into unknown energy patterns we almost always slingshot back to the pain of the familiar.

4. A Good coach is simply there to keep you focused, reveal the traps and guide you to your own greatness. A coach that tells you they have the truth and the only truth is going to lead you into their own paradigms, which does not help you very much. So pay attention to that as well.


Courage is required on every step -choosing to change, trusting in a coach to help you, deciding to leave the pain of the familiar, and being able to hold the desire long enough for it to manifest.

If you haven't watched it yet go rent "The Pursuit of Happyness"
it is a perfect demonstration of commitment and courage under the most discouraging circumstances you can imagine and its a true story.

So where are you today? Are you ready to begin?

It requires your choice, no one else can decide for you...

I will help you in any way I can, I have lived through a lot of dysfunctional situations that have taught me many things. I only teach what I have learned, therefore I won't ask you to do anything I haven't had to do myself.
