PFR Notes January 22, 2010

By this time, most who made a New Year Resolution and got started, are just about stopped. The gyms are returning to normal and seem as quiet as a library. No one is talking about resolutions, because that would be an unwelcomed conversation. It’s fun to talk about all the things you are going to do, no so much when the conversation is about all the things you failed to do.

Even though the Personal Freedom Revolution had no end goal in mind, so there is nothing to fall short of, other than falling short of simply doing it, still there is drop off. The drop off is greater than just the check offs on the challenge. The drop off is on the intensity to which those who are still in there are really doing it.

What do I mean by that? Well, we either are not saying the affirmations or we are saying them with less energy. Maybe we are hitting the grateful list in the morning, but missing it at night. More likely, you skip in the morning and say I’ll do it tonight, but then you might forget to say them at night and will make up for it in the morning. You are not looking at every choice and asking yourself what should I do to be my personal best. The Reverse Tool sounded great the day you read about it, but when is the last time you used it?

You figure it is okay, because you are still watching the videos, listening to the Podcasts and reading the notes. It is okay, because you are learning a lot and you get it. In fact you are having tons of light bulb moments. So let me ask you a question, if you watch the videos, listen to the Podcasts, read the material on how to workout, and you understand it all, and you never workout, or workout sporadically, are you going to get into shape? Never mind, I figured that one out on my own.

Listen, do you really want this year to be different? If you do, then you have to dig inside yourself. It is in the doing that change is created. The entire Revolution Program is a Boot Camp to get you ready to make commitments. I know it can seem pointless at times, boring, or the blocks are hard to get through, but you need to dig inside yourself.

How are you going to use the Commitment Tool and create the changes you want, if you cannot keep with this commitment now? I don’t care how well you think you are doing, do better. That sounds harsh, but that is how it is. If you want to create real change, dig inside yourself and push, push and push and make that commitment. I know you can do it, I know you have it in you. I know that you really want to break free of the prisons of not living the life you want. The freedom you want takes you pushing harder. You have the power inside of you, you have to be committed and you have to dig in.

Dig in and it might hurt a little, but you will feel better than ever. Dig in and soon we will make commitments and they will seem like taking a walk on a sunny day. You will smile at how easy it is to create the changes you want, once you learn how to make a commitment.

So…DIG IN!
