STOP Stopping
STOP Stopping Yourself
STOP Stopping yourself short of
A Goal.
A Finish line.
A Dream.
STOP Stopping yourself
Period.
Every time we stop ourselves from achieving – we are cheating ourselves of something precious, something vital
Something valuable.
Every time we restart-we have to muster up a new source of
Energy
Motivation
Focus
Commitment
It is SOOO much EASIER to keep going, than to restart
Even more reason to STOP STOPPING ourselves!
When we STOP, extra baggage seems to climb aboard, like these freeloaders named…
Guilt, Shame, Blame, Discouragement, Frustration, Failure
When these freeloaders pile on, our load becomes heavier
Making a restart even more difficult
It can take FOREVER to remove the freeloaders
And simply get moving again
None of these freeloaders pile on when we are moving
When we stop ourselves
We lose precious ground
We drift backwards
Sometimes rapidly
Creating a greater distance from our goal
It is exhausting to start over
It is agonizing and exhausting to repeatedly start over
So why do we STOP?
Do we get tired?
Do we get bored?
Do we lack commitment?
Is our goal truly important?
Is our goal truly a priority?
We must get honest with ourselves
How badly do we really want whatever it is we keep stopping ourselves from achieving or finishing?
- Weight Loss
- Financial Security
- Educational Goals
- LOVE
- Etc….
You must get absolutely honest about your goal
What is it you TRULY wish for?
Now ask yourself WHY you want this…
Ask yourself WHY 5 times
Ask WHY to get to your primary root reason
Now ask yourself WHY 5 more times
To uncover more root reasons
These root reasons are your energy source
Let these roots feed you, drive you, fuel you forward
Your GOAL can now become a deeply rooted priority
Your GOAL becomes possible when you know what it truly means for you
STOP Stopping yourself for ONE Day
ONE FULL DAY
Now keep GOING
GO !
NO Thanks to STOPPING SHORT.
