THAT’S ALL YOU NEED – JUST ONE!

It only takes one real motive to change your life.

Go deep enough and you can find the one thing to finally launch you on the road to becoming successful, happy, healthy and wealthy.

Well, unless you are completely happy and satisfied with the way your life is right now.

Are you?

But let’s not get ahead of ourselves.

Let’s talk about what happens in real life.

You know the drill don’t you?

It hits just about everyone at one point or another.

As soon as you think you need to take care of yourself, or you need to get healthier, or you realize how much you have let yourself go, then BAM!

Your defense mechanisms scream into life, gesticulating and shrieking.

“I can’t!”

“I don’t have time!”

“This is not for me.”

“I wish I could.”

And so on and so forth.

You’ve heard it all before from others.

And have your own 1001 excuses all ready to trot out to justify why you will not get off your ass and take care of yourself.

Thing is, you KNOW you’re lying to yourself.

Oh maybe not on the surface.

On the surface, you have probably been saying these things so long, you actually believe them.

It’s easy to believe your own lies – just keep repeating them to yourself for long enough.

But deep inside, you know they are all distortions of the truth, fibs you tell yourself.

Well, they started out as fibs.

Problem is they have now grown into your coffin nails.

They are the tired, wasted, withered, shriveled lines that just come out on auto-pilot that are stopping you from getting anywhere in life.

Keeping you boxed in, in the same place for the rest of your life.

 

FINDING THE ONE

The cradle of mediocrity lies where change does not happen.

You see, excuses are easy. They are the shortcut. The fast way out.

It’s a lot simpler to shrug off responsibility than to shoulder it right?

Who wants responsibilities anyway? Nasty things they are.

No wonder we all have so many excuses (yes, “we” – I’m no better than anyone else).

Thing is, you just need ONE – yes ONE – reason to do things right.

You and I can recite bullshit all day long and not get anywhere.

But that one, single solitary reason for getting us somewhere in life is all we need.

That one true reason is going to take a lot more sweat to even utter, than all the other 1001 easy excuses put together.

And actually acting on it…wow, break out the big guns, will you?

Simple it is –easy, it is not.

Because no road worth traveling is going to be easy.

Easy is sitting on the coach eating salted crisps, sipping a Coke and watching “Jerry Maguire” (not that I have ever seen it, nah, never ever, I wouldn’t watch anything where he “had me at hello”).

But I promise you easy is not going to get you anywhere quicker.

Except to an early, grave, full of regret about what could have been.

That’s one promise I can make you.

The other promise I can make you is that if you look harder enough, I GUARANTEE you WILL find one reason why you need to take care of yourself and get things done.

Today! Right now!

Just one.

Look into your heart. Find it. And use it.

Care to share that reason?

Please do. I’d love to hear it.

You could save a life today.

Yours.

Rock it like a hurricane.
