We are our own worst enemies.

YOU CHOOSE HOW YOU ARE GOING TO ACT AND REACT FROM THE MOMENT YOU OPEN YOUR EYES IN THE MORNING UNTIL YOU CLOSE THEM AGAIN WHEN YOU GO TO BED

You have a powerful inner voice that is constantly guiding you while at work or play. There are very few mistakes ever made where you did not get fair and ample warning, well in advance that what you are about to do something that could land you in hot water. You know that you must manage your time, but for some inexplicable reason you still waste the best hours of the day on unproductive useless activities. You know that what you are about to say could hurt your child or get you in trouble with your boss or lover, but you still open your cake hole and dump it anyway. You know that the mismanagement of your money will cause financial strain, but you still proceed and buy stuff that you do not really need with “future income” that you still have to earn. You know that smoking is bad for your health, but you still smoke like a chimney and hope for the best. You know that poor eating habits will result in poor health and possible heart attacks, but you still eat everything that is not hammered down.

 

Your subconscious computer is already loaded with all the powerful guidelines you could ever need. There is no need to buy additional motivational books or attend expensive seminars to add to your already overloaded “rules of living” database. The problem that you are faced with is not a lack of information, but the implementation of what you already know. The problem with most people is laziness and self-deception. Why attend another seminar on time management if you are not even able currently rock up in time for appointments? We know virtually everything there is to know to live a fairly successful and happy life, but remain unsuccessful because we are too stubborn or lazy to implement what we already know.

I WILL ALWAYS SELECT THE MOST APPROPRIATE ATTITUDE WHILE AT WORK OR PLAY

 

Let us from today onward listen to our inner voices. Let us do what we know is the right thing to do. Let us stop searching for answers and implement a few of the principles we already understand and know. Let us stop looking for new rules, laws and words of wisdom and start using the ones we already have.

We are our own worst enemies. We will rather pay some kind of guru a fortune to tell us things that we already know than implement simple, logical principles. This “wise man” may use different examples and label the principles in a different manner, but the basics are usually the same. This clever man just gave it a new jacket and called it something else to avoid being sued by a guru that in turn stole the principles from someone else.

 

When you take the Ten Commandments in the Bible you soon discover that these ten laws are simple to understand and should be easy to implement. We all know that virtually no man in history could stick to these laws for any extensive period of time.

 

Drop your unwillingness to implement what you already know and improve you hit rate substantially and instantaneously. Stop piling on more and more laws and start implementing the ones you already know. You are already qualified and ready to make a success of life. The key is implementation and not procrastination. The winners in life are do the things they know need to be done and do not hang around seminars, gurus or self-help bookshops.
