Fear does not have any special power unless you give it power by submitting to it - Les Brown
What success is
I'd love to hear from you as to what your idea of success is - email ros@greatthinking.net.au or post it in the forum section of my website - www.greatthinking.net.au
I believe, success is self mastery. To know yourself and to know how to get the best from your self.
Knowing your strengths and weaknesses. Knowing your goals and values. Knowing your limits and your boundaries. Knowing your love language. Knowing your personality profile and communication style. Then, knowing others.
Every thing you are against, weakens you. Everything you are for, empowers you - Wayne Dyer
A body of work
Some basics
Don't you love to turn around and look at the freshly mown lawn that you've labored over. You made the effort to get fuel, get the mower, organize when to mow and then you mowed. It is work and the result of your effort is very rewarding.
My point is, you know how good it will look, you make the effort and you get rewarded.
You don't mow half the yard, and you don't have the blades on a setting that barely makes a difference.
What about your body? What about doing what is required to see good results.
Muscle burns fat. Build your muscle in order for your body to be way more efficient at burning fat.
Get fitter - Fit is about how well your engine runs
Prioritise regular exercise at least 4 times a week - Prioritizing it is harder then doing it
Eat 6 times a day. Not huge portions please, it stops snacking and lets your body know it doesn't need to store
Eat the right foods - Less processed and more natural
Lifes problems wouldn't be called hurdles if there wasn't a way to get over them
Did you know
That American presidents age twice as fast whilst in office. Stress!
I believe this would be similar with any high stress position or lifestyle.
Managing Stress is pretty vital seeing it is in most of our lives. We start to accept hectic as normal. It's not!
We lose sight of ourself and become task managers, moving from task to task filing the gaps in with small grabs of R & R.
We let ourself become defined by what is external from us or what our job title is or material things we own or wear.
So if I ask you, who you are, what is your answer?
No Pain No Gain
Our bodies are very skilled at having a mind of there own.
A workout for example, we decide to be good to ourself and work out with grand intentions of self improvement. Once our heart rate increases too much beyond comfortable or our muscles start to burn, we back off the steam to return to a more comfortable level of exertion, exercising at a more comfortable pace though still hoping for great results. When the results don't come, we let the exercise slip way down on the list of priorities.
In order to gain real benefits and make the effort actually worth while, we need to push past the want to stop at the onset of the pain barrier in order to stay in the fat burning range long enough to make it count. That is why personal trainers were invented, they get more out of you then you will get out of yourself.
The same can be said for the rest of our life. If we are to strive for things beyond average we need to push through the pain barriers, push beyond our comfort zones, and for long enough to make it count! That's why Life Coaches were invented.
Many have given up on the brink of success not realising just how close they were to reaching it!

We don't see the world as it is
We see it as we think it is
We can't out perform our self perception or image
