Introduction
The world is full of people waiting to be successful. They are waiting for the time to be right to take the move forward in their lives. They wait for life to come to them instead of creating a life they want. The excuse can be for the weather to be right, to lose the ten pounds, for the economy, for the timing to be perfect before they are ready to take life head on. Does this sound familiar to you? Are you allowing excuses to create limits and be the reason you are not going after what you desire in your life? If you are like most people, you can honestly answer this with a yes.
I too was that person, finding excuses to justify why I was not moving forward toward my goals. Then one day I looked at my life of struggle and unhappiness and made the choice to take personal responsibility for achieving my dreams. I realized I could gain success and live the life I imagined if I was open to make the changes I needed, do the work that comes with change and be committed to my personal success.
Being successful is not about being rich, it is not about being in power, it is about a combination of all you have to offer and the commitment you are willing to make to accomplish all you desire.
In life, you must focus on all areas of who you are, keeping mind, body and spirit balanced. Creating strength in all aspects of your character from personal responsibility to goal setting to achieving. Leaving out any area removes your opportunity for success.
This book will show you how to embrace all areas of who you are, amplifying your strengths and transforming your weaknesses.
Life Check is written for the everyday people that the world belongs to, the people like you and I who are working every day to live passionately and to experience a life full of happiness, success and joy. It provides many tried and true methods that I learned the hard way—you know, the old school way of trial-and-error. Now I want to share them with you so you can skip the trial-and-error, wasting no time and start to experience joy, passion, empowerment and happiness in your daily living.
I have personally watched my experience and that of others drastically change when making the commitment to learn and apply the methods outlined in this book. They create a strategic way to accomplish anything you want, empowering you to take a Life Check and to put you in the dominant role in your life.
Throughout the chapters of this book, there will be opportunities for you to stop and take a Life Check—a series of questions and thinking points that will help you to slow down and check where you are at present. I recommend you create a journal that will help you to keep track of your progress and for reference as you move forward toward success.
We have all had struggles that have left us complaining and whining, and it is easy to let these obstacles control the remainder of our days—always feeling as if we are getting the shaft from life, that the world is out to get us. Today, as you begin this book, you will start to discover that how you are approaching and dealing with the challenges of your life will determine the successes you experience.
If you are willing to commit yourself to learning the tools presented in this book, you will discover that YOU have the power to change your life, YOU have the power to live in a passionate, motivated, positive way that YOU control. By adding the steps from Life Check into your daily living you will see an amazing improvement in all areas.
This is your how-to book on ways to create and live a successful, motivated and passionate life. There will be no more waiting for the door to open when you have the key safely tucked away in your pocket. So, today approach that door and unlock your greatest potential.
1 – Rock the Boat
“Men are afraid to rock the boat in which they hope to drift safely through life’s currents, when, actually, the boat is stuck on a sandbar. They would be better off to rock the boat and try to shake it loose.”
~Thomas Szasz
Your life is not happening to you, it is responding to you. Your actions, the choices you make, your thoughts and the words you speak determine the quality of your of life. So then, who are you and how is your life treating you?
Figuring out who you are in truth will reveal so much about you and the path you are on. Every moment, every choice you make is directly related to how you see yourself, who you believe you are and what you think you are worth. These three factors determine everything—what you work to accomplish, whom you marry, your daily routine, how you limit and label yourself, how you treat others and all that you allow to take place in your life.
Life Check 1-1: Valuing the Self
What do you think you are worth?
How do you value yourself?
