Why It Works
Transforming oneself is an elusive goal.
Hell Heck, most people don’t even consider doing it. Well, most people do, until we realize how much it’s going to cost.
And it’s at this very moment when a 1971 Fram Oil Filter campaign slogan comes to mind, “You can pay me now or pay me later.”
The reason getting started on your life changing transformation is so important is because, well, you simply have to start.
Then, the tricky part. The part most people can’t handle. Never stopping.
Bob Dylan, the folk-pop-rock icon of the 1960’s and 1970’s once said, “He who’s not busy being born, is busy dying.”
And the longer you wait, the more it costs.
Editor note: These conversations are always to myself. If it strangely sounds like I’m talking to you, it’s merely a coincidence.
The Truth Hurts
The truth hurts. The truth can also set us free.
“Yeah, yeah, whatever!”
Can’t you just hear people saying this, or thinking it? I say it too. We all do sometimes.
In fact, I’ve said this all my life.
“Yeah, yeah, whatever.”
Until a few years ago when things began to change.
One close friend describes me as, “A Transformed man.”
Just yesterday, at jeffnoel.org (spirit) I posted about the fog, the semi-conscious state many of us seem to go through life with. Some may call it auto-pilot.
As we are into the fourth day of the new year already, wanted to remind everyone that the goal from all this writing is:
- To leave a trail for a young child
- To help others with their goals
- To eventually raise money to find a cure
These things have the ability to help transform anyone. At the moment, it’s working slowly, but powerfully.
Finally
Finally.
Some will say, “Finally, 2009 is over.”
Some will say, “Finally, 2010 is here.”
Some may say both.
Where would you put yourself?
It seems, time and time again, it all comes down to attitude.
Indecision May Or May Not Be
“Indecision may or may not be my problem.” — Jimmy Buffett
Ain’t it da truth? This is one of the many reasons I’ve been challenged to do a better job at living out my dreams.
Please don’t get me wrong, most people have a pretty good batting average – we do many of the things we say we’re going to do.
We also, because we’re human, don’t do a lot of the things we say we’re going to do.
The antidote?
Find your higher purpose.
And, be prepared to work harder than you ever have in your life.
