Self-HELP Me: Change your Habits, Change your Life
by Mark Fournier
- Do you ever have difficulty consistently reaching and sustaining your goals?
- Do you allow procrastination, exception or excuses to interfere with any of your goals or commitment?
- Would you like to know exactly which virtues, skills and systems must be mastered in order to be the best in your field or just be happier?
- Do you ever feel alone or unsupported in your efforts, goals or dreams?
Do your still want to significantly improve your life or organization in spite of these challenges?
Have you ever experienced an inspiring book, CD, seminar or movie with a message so profound or stirring that you vowed to make a sweeping change in your life? For me personally it was in 1974 when I realized the enormous power I had over my own life and destiny while reading Viktor Frankls Mans Search for Meaning where this concentration camp survivor states Everything can be taken from a man but ...the last of the human freedoms - to choose ones attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose ones own way. And the immortal book As a Man Thinketh by James Allan where he explains, A man is literally what he thinks about, his character being the complete sum of all his thoughts. He thinks in secret, and it comes to pass: Environment is but his looking-glass.
Knowledge is not Power... Only the consistent application of knowledge creates power.
GOING... Going... gone...
Journey forward to today and ask yourself what of that dream has become a reality? How many of these brilliant insights are now an automatic part of your basic nature? Are you consistently applying them and getting the results you expected, or have they gradually faded away? Have you ever allowed an empowering principle or passionate goal to slip through your fingers, unexpressed... never fully realized? What then is the missing link to LASTING change?

Try mentally returning to that period now... bringing to mind the feelings of hope, excitement and possibilities. Can you hear the music climaxing in Rocky as Stallone sprints to the top of those endless stairs, leaping into the air with his fist... or perhaps it happened while listening to Coveys 7 Habits of Highly Effective People or during a Chicken Soup for the Soul story.
For me, it happened in 1974 when I realized the enormous power I had over my own life and destiny while reading Viktor Frankls Mans Search for Meaning, where a concentration camp survivor states Everything can be taken from a man but the last of the human freedoms: to choose ones attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose ones own way.
Also as I read the immortal book As a Man Thinketh... by James Allan where he explains, A man is literally what he thinks about, his character being the complete sum of all his thoughts. [...] He thinks in secret, and it comes to pass: Environment is but his looking glass. If you can recall a time like this when you experienced a new purpose or level of awareness...
