Obstacles Don't Have To Stop You
"Energy and persistence conquer all things." - Benjamin Franklin
This is a topic that is not addressed often enough. So I decided to dust off one of the PCS archives and bring your attention to the following topic - Distraction.
Distraction is one of the most perilous diseases in the world today. It can kill you, figuratively and maybe even literally.
It's not the HUGE, cataclysmic distractions that are the most dangerous. That's what the average people look out for.
No. It's not that at all.
It's the small ones, the sneaky ones. They're insidious little monsters that are barely noticeable, yet will wreak havoc in your life.
Let's see. We have steroids in baseball, corrupt politicians, climate change, illegal aliens etcetera etcetera.
The danger lies in the slight nudge off course that the aforementioned can cause, the barely perceptible change in direction; the wrong direction.
You see if you change your course by a mere three degrees, you probably won't notice it immediately. And when you do notice it, it may not appear that you are treading in dangerous waters.
Eventually you arrive at a destination that you never intended to reach. It's then that you remember that song by the Talking Heads. Lead singer David Byrne has that wonderful lyric, "And you may find yourself asking, well how did I get here?"
Good question and therefore, it deserves a good answer.
The same holds true if you nudge yourself three degrees in the right direction. You will arrive at a more favorable destination; one that has more in line with your Vision, Beliefs and Mindset.
The key is to eliminate as much distraction as possible.
How can you do that?
First, let's get the easy stuff out of the way. Get away from the TV, Radio and Newspapers.
Next, take a look at your goals. Are you on track? Are you pressing toward or moving away from your goals?
Be courageous. Don't Mickey Mouse with your answers. The more direct you are with your evaluation, the faster you'll make any necessary corrections.
If you find yourself lacking in regard to your performance, and you are having difficulty identifying the steps to take, maybe the "I just don't know..." phrase rears its ugly head.
Ask yourself this question, "If I did know the steps to take, what would they be?"
By uncovering the small distractions, the minute blockages, you can eliminate them from your life, thus beginning a new era in your performance and your results.
The PCS Next Level is a program by which you can and will learn how to eliminate the obstacles in your life quickly, efficiently and permanently.
Commit to the strategies and tactics of excellence for your life. Call me directly at 505-821-0157 or send an email me directly at info@empowermax.com with your phone number to schedule an exploratory consultation.
If you have been considering coaching, STOP THINKING & START DOING! You can't go forward looking in the rearview mirror.
Take action, the choice is uniquely yours.
Best of Success!
