I had to reread this quote a few times, to appreciate the
thought behind these words.
We all have something that causes us “pain”, that
uncomfortable feeling that makes us squirm inside our adult bodies. The things
that you try to avoid because of who You are in this world, it is these things
that make us truly unique. Once we know our rules, only then can we come up
with a plan to bend them.
My fear as a teenager applying for my first job was in
operating the cash register. My biggest fear was in breaking or doing something
wrong with the machine in front of a customer. Fear of not being able to fix
the problem/reprimand from a boss/feeling stupid in front of a customer was
what scared me most.
I started my training and the most important thing I wanted
to learn was how to do a VOID. Having the comfort of knowing how to get out of
a jam, gave me the confidence to tackle that cash register each day. I knew
something!
I have a friend who wanted to get in the habit of exercising
on a regular basis. Her difficulty was her lack of motivation early in the
morning, which was her only available time. However she had a friend who was an
early riser and STOIC in her commitment to her fitness regime. They agreed that the friend would pick her up three times a week on specific days. Well, Sally
committed like a pro. She knew that she would never let her friend sit outside
her house at 5:30am while she lay in bed. Sally could never let a friend
down or do something to annoy a friend.
Give it some thought as to what YOU need to do to be the
best You. And with practise, you will be making your choices knowing how to
avoid the pain that you dread most.
