SERIOUSLY SPEAKING - SO DO IT AGAIN!

Here's one of my favorite 'don't give up' stories...
The manager of the Grand Ole Opry talking to Elvis Presley:

"You ain't goin' nowhere son.  You ought to go back to drivin' a truck."

Okaaay…

The list of famous people who failed and kept on going is legendary! 

Did you know it includes Henry Ford, R.H.Macy, Walt Disney, Orville and Wilbur Wright, Jerry Seinfeld, Fred Astaire…  more 

Whoa!  Imagine what would have happened if they all quit…




DANCE WITH IT!   EXPERIENTIAL APPS           
An opportunity to experiment with some fun
ideas...

WHAT ALLOWS US TO KEEP ON TRYING?

Engage your Inner Ally!  
This is the voice that represents the iconic 'perfect parent' that we all wished we had!

It is the part of us that:

          Believes in us
          Always supports our efforts
          Points the way
          Does not attack us
          Listens to our complaints and helps us laugh anyway…

As an experiment create an image of your Inner Ally ~
Make a drawing and put it somewhere you see each day.


You don't need to be a great artist - It's just a 'mind prompt'.
As a matter of fact you can even use a photo of a favorite pet!

Give it a voice.
Can you hear its tone?
Does it sing to you?

Give it a code word or phrase that you hear every time you see the image.
It might be something like:

          "Yes you can!"
          "I'm with you!"
          "Hang in there!"

You can even write out these words and stick them in good reminder places.

Now every time you feel down or stressed or hopeless let your Inner Ally smile at you and lend a hand!

What happens as you do this?
