Motivation Plus Momentum

When you have made the decision to take on the life change of personal growth and set your first group of goals actually getting started - taking action - can often be the most difficult step. We all know how easy it is to do it all in our head where we can to dream and plan without really having to actually do anything. A lot of people grind to a halt here spin their wheels and avoid taking action. Planning and dreaming could make you think that you’re doing something about your goals, but if you never really take action like taking a step forward like stepping up to the plate then you’ll never achieve them. To see measurable progress, you have to push yourself out of your comfort zones and take action.

When your motivation and courage combine and you start to move ahead what generally happens? You recognize it’s WAY harder than you guessed it would be, right? It feels like you’re trying to sprint uphill. You keep stumbling across hurdles and humbling circumstance, facing setbacks and delays, grappling with fear and anxiety, and brawling in the daily battle to stay focused and motivated.

This is the time most normal people would throw in the towel. They say to themselves that “it isn’t meant to be” right now, so they set their goals dreams aside and promise themselves that they try again later. Or sorrier, they reconcile themselves to live a life of meritocracy because they don’t believe they have what it takes to succeed. They’ve “failed,” so they’re not going to try any more.

You’re Already in the Best of All Possible Situations

I have recently finished reading a birthday gift that I was given it is called “Bonds That Make Us Free” by Terry Warner. I enjoyed the book even though at times it was a bit too repetitive for my liking. Hey who is perfect! I’m the first to put my hand up to say that I’m a work in progress model - and there is a lot of room for personal growth. This book reminded me of concept that you are currently in the “Best of All Possible Situations.” While the saying goes that the other farmers grass is greener is always greener I think we must look for the balance and be grateful for all that we have.

I believe that the concept of appreciating where we are now can be retraced to Søren Kierkegaard’s parable of The Two Artists:

” Suppose there were two artists, and the one said, “I have traveled much and seen much in the world, but I have sought in vain to find a man worth painting. I have found no face with such perfection of beauty that I could make up my mind to paint it. In every face I have seen one or another little fault. Therefore I seek in vain.”

Are the Prophets of Doom Wrong About the Law of Attraction

Many Prophets of Doom don’t like the Law of Attraction
During my studies of personal growth and self improvement I had come into contact with certain people who seem to have made it their mission to dispute and dispel the Law of Attraction. Here is why I think that they’re wrong.

What is the Law of Attraction?

To start with I asked myself what is it that I believe the law of attraction states - simply - that you get what you think about. Others say it in a different way - like attracts like. The basic assumption behind the law of attraction is that it is indifferent and neutral and doesn’t get emotional like people. And whether you’re consciously aware or not of thinking negative or positive thoughts, the law of attraction will give you what you think about.

Part of my journey in personal growth, development and self help
has required me to spend time looking inside me and being honest

taking actions and having thoughts that
COULD NEVER have brought about positive results
and personal growth.

Years yes many years.

When you’ve got ability you feel joyful. A joyful person will look at each incident, experience etc in life as something they can learn from.

There is a world of difference between failing and being a failure.

We hear bad news each and every day. Like the US is battling hard with the economic free fall as well as other countries. This is out of our control. Therefore, we should look at this in a new light.
