Have you ever shopped for some new shoes, a particular new outfit, a piece of furniture or a new vehicle?
Let’s say a fancy new Volkswagen Beetle has caught your attention… (I don’t know why you like it -but hey, it’s your desire…not mine)
You saw one, you liked it and now you want one -Good for you!
Nice Ride!
But then have you noticed what happens next…?
What used to be a rare occurrence (spotting a VW Beetle) is now an overwhelming reality
…They are EVERYWHERE!
…But are they really?
Are there really THAT many more VW Beetles than there were BEFORE you became interested in them???
No, not really…
You stumbled upon something and that ‘something’ spurred an interest in you. You initiated what’s called the Reticular Activating System (RAS) in your brain and because your RAS has been engaged -you are now predisposed to notice whatever it is that your mind has now fixated upon -namely -crazy looking little cars with rounded corners and freakish features. -Now you see them everywhere!
We can use this very same brain functioning system to change our habits and our lives.
All we need do is focus upon that which we intensely desire….fixate upon it…and envision it as our reality.
Imagine living that life -the life that you desire
Forget your bad habits….in fact, forget them all together. They will do you no good here
Just let your Reticular Activating System (RAS) seek out and find everything you could ever possibly need to make your vision a reality!
I know it sounds absurd…..But I have seen this very same system succeed time after time ~in situation after situation….it really works!
Where I see most people fail, is sadly, within themselves. Most people lack the self confidence to boldly stand up to their old habits and proclaim “No Thank You! – I choose not to participate in this any longer!”
This not a ‘one day fix’ -No not at all…
I don’t even expect my clients to make any notable, measurable progress for the first 4 weeks on this program (although most certainly do).
But the attitude adjustment that takes place in those 4 weeks….now that is priceless
So grab yourself some Attitude
-Make a substantial change….Decide what it is that you want to adjust in your life and fix your focus upon it…
We cannot achieve that which we do not believe….
Believe it!
Then achieve that which you believe….
To Your Good Health!
