It Feels So Good When I Stop

It's the New Year, and I'm going to recommend you
not make resolutions or set goals this year. They do
work sometimes, but I believe most of the time
that's because there are other factors already in
place that make it possible.

For the average person starting with goals or
resolutions is a recipe for failure and frustration. It's
like trying to build a house without first laying a
foundation.

Goals can work when you're in the right frame of
mind, and the right emotional state. If you focus
on them too soon though you'll probably not follow
through with them for very long.

I think it was Groucho Marx who used to tell the
joke about a guy standing on a street corner and
repeatedly hitting himself over the head with a
hammer. A fellow comes along and asks him why
he’s doing such a terrible thing to himself, to
which he replies,

"Because it feels so good when I stop."

What I want you to do to feel good is stop beating
yourself up for your past failures.

It's called forgiveness, or letting go, or grace, or
detachment, or just plain releasing, and it the
main tool you have for lessening negativity in your
life.

It's not so easy to do until you understand why it's
such a necessity, but once you experience it's power
you'll be a believer.

Tomorrow I'll show you the other side ofthe coin,
i.e. how to increase and magnify the positives in
your life.

Shoot For The Stars,

P.S. No matter what you've done or haven't done in
the past, you have the right to burn those bridges
and let go of the negativity and doubt. Then you'll
be ready to move forward and take action.
