Why Bother About Your Life?
Have you failed to create the life you want, because you are afraid to take risks or leave your comfort zone? Have you turned down an important opportunity because you were nervous and thus failed to adequately prepare? Are you paralyzed with fear at the thought of launching out to start that business you have always dreamed of? Are you still doing the same old things you hate so much because you are afraid to work hard at doing what it takes to succeed? If you are wondering whether it is worth the hassle to go the extra mile to create the life you want; The following ten reasons will encourage you and remind you why you must bother about your life, career, or undertakings. You bother because: 1. You want something better for your life. It could be a better job, more money, good health, less stress, good relationships, independence or a good education, among other things. 2. This is the season of life when you are energetic, strong, able and willing. There may never be another moment like this moment. Now is the time when you have so much vigor and are in good health. Seize it. 3. This is the time when your idea is fresh and exciting. When you are passionate about something, your creative juices flow easier and it is so much easier to accomplish things. As the saying goes," strike when the iron is hot!" 4. Time waits for no man or woman. Time does not stand still in the hopes that you will be in the right mood or frame of mind to act. The longer you wait, the slimmer the chances of action become. 5. You are qualified, trained or experienced. You have invested a lot in terms of time and money and you have what it takes to accomplish what you want. 6. Others are waiting to be enriched by you. You have something special to offer the world and people are waiting for you to manifest this gift and bless their lives. 7. You've finally realized the importance of your dream, idea or goal and you must take action. The only justice that can be done to capture the importance of your idea or goal is to take action and turn it into reality. 8. You've got to give yourself a chance to attain what you want. Your foremost responsibility is to yourself. You have to put your best foot forward at all times and do everything necessary to ensure that you do your best to succeed. 9. Opportunities are waiting to be seized. There are so many opportunities that are waiting to be seized by someone who will take a risk and do what is required. That someone is you! 10. The dreaming phase is over and it is now time to take your idea, goal or project to the next level. The time for visualizations, mental calculations on how ideas work and talking the talk must comes to an end. When this occurs, a new action phase begins and you must embrace it. These are the reasons why you bother to do what you have to do. So, be bold, take the necessary risks and discover what is possible. Just do it!

This Just Ain?t Good! "Nope, this just ain't good!" How many times in our lives have we had those or similar words bouncing around inside our skulls? Yeah, I've lost count, too! Are You Lacking Self-Discipline? - Part 1 A man does not live until he begins to discipline himself; he merely exists. Like an animal he gratifies his desires and pursues his inclinations just where they may lead him. He is happy as a beast is happy, because he is not conscious of what he is depriving himself; he suffers as the beast suffers, because he does not know the way out of suffering. He does not intelligently reflect upon life, and lives in a series of sensations, longings, and confused memories which are unrelated to any central idea or principle. A man whose inner life is so ungoverned and chaotic must necessarily manifest this confusion in the visible conditions of his outer life in the world; and though for a time, running with the stream of his desires, he may draw to himself a more or less large share of the outer necessities and comforts of life, he never achieves any real success nor accomplishes any real good, and sooner or later wordly failure and disaster are inevitable, as the direct result of the inward failure to properly adjust and regulate those mental forces which make the outer life.

At time, you may seem to have a hard time figuring out why this once fantastic business that got you so excited every morning is making you feel like a heavy weight now. Contemplating Change And Moving Into Action Do you ever have the sense that there has to be more to life than what you are presently experiencing? Those are the moments in time where you become consciously aware of your problems, and awaken to the possibility that change could occur.

March madness is great to watch not because I have basketball ability, (you can tell that by my height), but because every year there are some good players that become great players. Some of the tournament games are nail bitters and come down to last second shots. When they do there are maybe one or two players on the team that have this attitude of, "just give me the ball." They want that pressure shot, they want to be the one making or breaking the teams future. Those are the players that go on in life to be the Michael Jordan's, Larry birds, and Magic Johnson's of this world.

What is the most important thing in your life that you have been trying to do for sometime now and haven't made any progress? Why haven't you made any progress? Why isn't the project going forward? Do you believe it can be done? Our Future I'm back from Hawaii; it was ten days of physical and emotional mastery. We went from learning from twenty of the planets best speakers in their field, to being pushed physically with a fifty foot pole climb, and then, flying fifteen feet like a free bald eagle to a hanging trapeze. These were some of the most invigorating experiences of my life.
