You have to understand how much power you get from choice. You have to understand how
invaluable it is for things to be your personal responsibility. If you take what is your personal
responsibility and you diffuse it, I'm not talking about if you pass it down a chain
of command to somebody who's responsible for an action. That's good. It's great to have
support. But if you don't stay with and be on top of your choices and your personal responsibilities
for seeing to it that things are followed through, for being engaged, you give away
your power. The biggest thing you have in life that makes you free is that you get to
choose. You are not controlled by instincts that dictate all your behavior. We don't have
that kind of bondage. We have freedom, and that freedom is a bit of a burden because
we can develop habits without intending to, and once they're in place, they're very strong.
And the more times the habits have been activated and practiced, the stronger they get. That's
good to know because if you want to strengthen habits, you need to practice them consistently
and persistently because they develop, but those are the ones that come out of your own
personal choice. But to be a person who gets to choose, instead of having things imposed
on you, that's the mark of being an independent person, of being, in some way, truly adult.
Otherwise you're more like a child, and you act more like a child, and you make excuses
like a child, and you diffuse responsibility that's yours because you don't want the burden
of being in charge. You actually create behaviors that makes people--that make people come running.
And yet you'd be saying to somebody who came running, hey, get off my back! I've got this
handled. But the point is they come because you're not handling it. Take charge of your
choices. Make them actively. Welcome choices. Welcome the chance to be the responsible party
because that is what gives you the chance to be an agent instead of a reactor. You get
to be somebody who initiates rather than taking orders. Any chance you have to exercise choice,
welcome it and own your choices, and be responsible for them because it's that responsibility
that give you that choice. You want this. This is what gives you the power to achieve
far mar than you ever have before and to feel alive across your entire existence. Since
you're a high achiever you may know about this. High achievers often hit a wall. They're
going along, they're having one success after another and then suddenly, something happens
and they grind to a halt. And it's confusing because they're not sure what it is they've
done wrong if anything. They just know that they're not moving anymore the way they're
used to moving. The way they have moved in the past. If you've run into like what seems
like a ceiling over you and you're kind of in a fog and you're mystified by what's getting
in your way, you can even kind of slide into a swirl of doubts and wonder if you ever really
achieved anything significant at all and whether any of your amazing achievements you have
done were anything but kind of fronting or a little bit of a fraud. That is really negative
and pernicious and it doesn't have to be that way. I want you to go get a free report from
