Stop SHOULDing on yourself

I starting doing Tony Robbin's Ultimate Edge program again last week. The 2 biggest nuggets I got from it this time around is Decisions create your Destiny and stop SHOULDing on yourself. When you should on yourself, you kinda shit on yourself. As we enter into a wonderful summer and the 2nd half of the year, take a quick moment to pause because sometimes you have to slow down to speed up. Are you where you want to be physically, mentally, spiritually, and financially? Release the judgment of where you should be and stop telling yourself "I should have done this, I should be here, I should do this..." SHOULD is the language of procrastination, judgment, and justification. It is my intention that this writing shift you to the 1 degree of empowerment and CONSISTENT action you are seeking. Every action is fathered by decisions and it's your decisions that are moments of creation for your destiny. You make your decisions and then your decisions make you. So many people think that they will do this when certain condition happens. A well lived life is not so. You decide something and then the opportunities present itself because your subconscious will find a way to achieve it. This past month I had the honor to airbrush some new body building competitors. I get to see them at the end of their journey, the final moments before they go on stage after months of training, dieting, and discipline. A particular client, Teresa stands out. She is 36 years young, has 4 kids, and lost 42 lbs. Teresa wanted to do the competition for herself and just made the decision to do it. A quote she read everyday to keep her motivated was "If it's important to you, you'll find a way. If not, you'll find an excuse." She gave me an incredible gift that day. It was a renewal and showed me why I was stuck in some areas of my life. I believe your words are your law, and your language attracts the energy in your life. One of my mentors, Jeffery Combs says the word SHOULD is the language of procrastination. Your brain tries to avoid pain by procrastinating. When you use "should" your brain associates it with work or attaches it to an outcome that requires work. Most people do not like to "work" and link it to pain, hence, you procrastinate and make an excuse. I challenge you to take notice of how many times you use the word should. When you do, immediately re-phase and say "I want to or I am willing to." Notice how much better you'll feel and how the opportunity will appear in a matter of 5 days for you to step into that power with more flow and ease.
