SERIOUSLY SPEAKING - THE FALLACY OF EASY

Let's get real - it just isn't so!  The steps might be simple but the process is not easy!

Think about these life issues:

Diet

Exercise

School

Breaking up

Finding a life partner

Raising healthy children

Pushing back

Dealing with anger

Dealing with sadness

Saying goodbye

Letting go

De-cluttering

Sticking to it

Keeping up with paperwork

Do you really think any of these are easy?

DANCE WITH IT!   EXPERIENTIAL APPS                           

An opportunity to experiment with some fun ideas…

PUSHING THROUGH HARD

Let's use one simple and time honored example:

FOOD AND EATING

Why do you think there are thousands of diet books?  Diet plans?  Diet doctors?

Staying with it is hard!  

Whether it is for weight loss or optimal health, at some point we all hit 'hard'… and then what happens?

Take yourself backwards in time to your last experience of 'hard' with this one...  

What happened?

Was it the smell of that 'forbidden' food?  Or perhaps the little voice that whined "it's not fair!"?  Or that other seductive voice that claimed "just this once!"

Or maybe it was watching others eat and letting your resentment take over…

Whatever it was, that was when the peddle hit the metal, the sh@# hit the fan and you approached the land of HARD!

Now imagine you had a personal cheerleader who chants:

"Yes you can!"  "Yes you can!"  "Hang in there!"  "Remember the reward!"

Focus on that reward (good health, beautiful skin, getting off meds, reducing pain, loving what you see and feel…) until it becomes your personal mantra.  

Can you hear it singing to you?
