« Why We Love The Beatles: 93 of 100 |
Main
| It's Absolutely, Totally OK to be: »
- Get
up 45 minutes earlier;
- wake
up instantly:
- try
hot water and a little grated ginger as your first drink of the day;
- that’ll
kick-start the metabolism;
- enliven
the senses
- and
spark the synapses:
- so
that you are not just not sleeping but actually awake.
- Go
to bed earlier so that you wake naturally without an alarm.
- Blame
nothing;
- absolutely
nothing.
- Decide
what needs to be done and do it.
- Listen
to Moussoursky: Pictures at an Exhibition is particularly cool;
- listen
to Mick Jagger: try his album of solo efforts;
- listen
to Johnny Cash, again.
- Dream
until the dreams are no long dreams but reality.
- Give
what you want massive attention;
- stop
talking;
- stop
making tea;
- start
doing.
- Say
it. At the meeting. Say it.
- Don’t
do a job, do a passion.
- Don’t
build a career, build a movement.
- Don’t
seek money, seek wealth.
- Don’t
wait for the culture to change around here;
- be
the culture change around here.
- Learn
to breathe:
- fully,
deeply, steadily;
- learn
to drop the stress that builds that gives you aches and pains and distracts you
from your mission of making the world a better place;
- stretch,
flex and drink more water.
- Don’t
ask for permission: kick butt;
- stop
copying and
- start
believing in your own work:
- yes
you do and yes you can.
- So
what are your challenges?
- Write
them down:
- line
by line;
- clear
and explicit.
- What’s
bugging you?
- Causing
you sleepless nights?
- And
distracting you from your cause:
- be
it parenting or
- running
a business or
- carving
out a passion or
- all
three?
- It
isn’t time.
- Nor
cash.
- It’s A cubed.
- That’s
A to the power three:
- Attention
- Really,
really focus on what you want.
- Make
it a central part of every day.
- Acceptance
- There
are some things you can’t change. Let them go.
- Attitude:
- be
resilient.
- How
can we love a serial killer? ‘Cos Dexter is evolving;
- How
can we love a brutal torturer? ‘Cos Jack will save LA;
- How
can we love Bourne’s girlfriend? because she doesn’t winge;
- Attention
means;
- what
and
- when.
- Acceptance
means:
- let
go of the baggage.
- Attitude
means:
- no
failure only feedback and
- you
can do anything but not everything.
- If
you knew exactly what to do, what would it be?
- So:
do it!
- Who
does know what to do?
- Ask
them.
- Why
has the universe given you this possibility?
- Your
very own coaching plan.
- It
wants you to get better at relationships, maybe.
- Or
get that book written?
- Or
get fitter?
- Or
…
- Or
…
- No
other reasons. The universe is perfectly fair.
- It
hasn’t got that much spare capacity either to keep an eye on you.
- But
it’s there for you.
- So
a ripple of space-time quantum dust sent a nudge in your direction;
- but
did you get the message?
- Sure
an e-mail would have been easier, but what if it had ended up as spam?
- You
know?
- You
know what?
- It’s all going to be ok!
- Stand
up and stretch;
- take
a look at that hand;
- look
right thorough it, to atomic level;
- that’s
the power you have.
- The
thing is...
- The
main thing is...
- The
bizarre thing is...
- You
don’t have any problems at all.
- Now
or ever: you have a few gentle corrections to make;
- and
you always will;
- as
Life’s a journey.
- But
you can fix them all;
- because you have you.
- And
- you are unstoppable.
