What is something you want to change in your life? How long have you wanted to change it? I have a feeling if that time span is longer
than a week or so, you are filling excuses into your mindset of why it hasn’t
been achieved.
I have been doing so self-reflection this past week. I want to make sure that there are not
important things in my life that I have been excusing-away.
Some examples:
Desire: Look better in clothes
Excuse: I don’t have time to work out.
Fix: I could organize my schedule better. Plan better.
Plan ahead and FIT IT IN!
Excuse: Healthy food is more expensive.
Fix: Really? Is
it? If I fill my body with good for me
food instead of junk food, I know I will be more satisfied. I know from my years with Weight Watchers
that a simple change like drinking more water will fill me up and cleanse my
body.
Desire: I want new furniture.
Excuse: We finally got out of debt and refuse to use credit
cards again. Without credit cards, I
will never be able to buy a large piece of furniture.
Fix: Stick to Dave
Ramsey’s method. Set money aside each
week into a fund. If I want it bad
enough I will not “raid” the stash.
Desire: I want to move up to the next level in my
business. I REALLY want to be a
SuperStar Director. (I have achieved all
the requirements except one more first generation director)
Excuse: There is nothing I can do about it. I am relying on other’s actions.
Fix: While I am rely on the promotion of others, I need to
make sure I am doing everything in my power to train them on how to achieve the
goal.
Fix: Am I focusing on individuals whose goals align with
mine or am I pushing my goals (so I can succeed) on them? I need to meet with them and make sure.
Fix: Keep doing what I need to do to build my personal
business. Continue to follow the basics
and know that the system will work.
WOW...that hit home! I know that my dreams have been pushed away many times over the years...and I always have a "good excuse". I need to put some of your good advise into practice!! Thanks!
