KNOCK ON YOUR DOOR

 

                    REPLACE THE OLD WITH THE NEW

                SO INSTEAD, LET US SAY THAT I KNOCK ON YOUR DOOR, AND I ASK YOU TO COME OUTSIDE. THERE STANDS A SHINY NEW DELIVERY TRUCK FULL OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL FURNITURE YOU HAVE EVER IMAGINED. FOR THE NEXT TWO OR THREE HOURS. I HELP YOU CARRY ALL OF THE BEAUTIFUL NEW FURNITURE, YOUR NEW POSITIVE SELF-TALK, INTO YOUR MENTAL APARTMENT. AND THIS TIME, WE DON'T STORE THE OLD NEGATIVE FURNITURE IN THE GARAGE, WE PILE IT UP AND A MATCH TO IT. WE GET RID OF IT. DON'T GIVE YOUR OLD FURNITURE TO SOMEONE ELSE - DON'T PASS ALONG YOUR NEGATIVE SELF-TALK TO SOMEONE ELSE. AFTER ALL, HOW YOU GOT IT IN THE FIRST PLACE. 

                  THIS TIME WHEN I LEAVE, YOU WALK THROUGH YOUR MENTAL APARTMENT AND LOOK AROUND YOU. WHAT AN INCREDIBLE SIGHT MEETS YOUR EYES! WHA TONCE WAS A PLACE OF TATTRED HOPES AND BROKEN. DOWN DREAMS IS NOW FILLED WITH THE BRIGHT NEW BEGINNINGS OF AN EXCITING NEW YOU. THE NEW MENTAL FURNITURE STANDS ON THE STURDY LEGS OF SELF-ASSURANCE, YOU HAVE REPLACED FRUSTRATION AND QUIET RESIGNATION WITH THE ENTHUSIASM OF PROMISE AND BELIEF.

                 THAT IS HOW POSITIVE THINKING SHOULD WORK. THAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN JUST BELIEVING IN POSITIVE THINKING AND ACTUALLY CREATING IN YOUR LIFE. IT IS FINE TO THROW OUT THE OLD - IT IS ESSENTIAL. BUT IT IS ALSO ESSENTIAL TO REPLACE THE OLD WITH NEW, WORLD BY WORD, THOUGHT BY THOUGHT.

                  THE PROBLEM HAS BEEN THAT IN THE PAST, NO ONE GAVE US THE WORDS. NO ONE GIVE US THE WORD-FOR-WORD VOCABULARY THAT WE NEEDED TO REPLACE THE NEGATIVE PROGRAMMING WE HAD LEARNED  SO WELL. THE RIGHT KIND OF SELF-TALK IS TO MAKING ALL POSITIVE THINKING WORK.

                   JUST WANTING TO BE A POSITIVE THINKER ISN'T ENOUGH. MAKING THE DECISION TO HAVE A POSITIVE ATTITUDE ISN'T ENOUGH. YOU HAVE TO WIRE THE NEW HABIT INTO YOUR BRAIN. THE HUMA BRAIN SAYS, "GIVE ME THE DIRECTIONS, THE COMMANDS, THE PICTURE, THE SCHEDULE, AND THE RESULTS YOU WANT. THEN I WILL DO IT FOR YOU, GIVE ME THE WORD.

                                            HOW TO HAVE  MOTIVATE 

                                               YOURSELF INTERNAL

          

                  SINCE, AS I HAVE FOUND, THE MOST ACCURATE MEANING OF THE WORD "MOTIVATION" IS TO PUT INTO MOTION, IT SEEMS TO ME THAT WHEN  IT COMES RIGHT DOWN TO IF, IF A VOTE WERE TAKEN, MOST OF US WOULD RATHER DECIDE FOR OURSELVES WHAT SHOULD PUT US INTO MOTION THAN TO HAVE SOMEONE ELSE DECIDE FOR US.

                   IF YOU'D LIKE TO GET MOTIVATED - AND STAY MOTIVATED - YOU HAVE TO HAVE THE RIGHT SELF-TALK. THE RIGHT SELF-TALK CREATES INTERNAL MOTIVATION, WHICH BECOMES OF THE WAY THE BRAIN WORKS, IS THE ONLY KIND OF MOTIVATION THAT LASTS.

                  THE BEST SOLUTIO TO GETTING MOTIVATED AND STAYING MOTIVATED IS TO PRACTICE BEINNG YOUR OWN MOTIVATOR.

                   IMAGINE HAVING A COACH WHO STAYED WITH YOU, SEASON AFTER SEASON AND EVERY DAY IN BETWEEN. IMAGINE NOT NEEDING TO WAIT FOR SOMEONE ELSE TO GET YOU CHARGED UP AND MOVING. IMAGINE BEING ABLE TO RELY ON YOURSELF TO ALWAYS, ENERGIZE YOUR SPIRIT, FOCUS YOUR ATTENTION, AND KEEP YOU IN TUNE, ON TOP, IN TOUCH, AND GOING FOR IT. CAN YOU IMAGINE NEVER AGAIN NEEDING SOMEONE ELSE TO PROD OR PUSH YOU INTO ACTIVATING YOUR OWN BEST EFFORST.?

               YOUR OWN INTERNAL COACH WILL DO THAT, IF YOU WIRE YOUR BRAIN WITH THE RIGHT SELF-TALK AND TELL IT WHAT TO DO., YOUR INTERNAL COACH IS YOUR STRONGEST, BELIEVER. WITH THE RIGHT SELF-TALK AND THE RIGHT PROGRAMMING, THAT COACH WILL SHOW YOU THE BEST IN STRENGTHEN YOUR WILL, AND GIVE YOU BELIEF. IT SHOULD BECOME YOUR ULTIMATE MOTIVATOR . IT IS YOU.
