Be Prepared to be SHOCKED

Now, I think it's amazing how we are sent messages to remind us of something we know but have forgotten.Recently I've been reminded many times of a car sticker I had years ago.  At the time I fully agreed with its message.  But then, over the years of my personal development, growing awareness and awakening consciousness I began to question its validity.  Nowadays though, I fully understand its meaning.This is what it said...

Now, be prepared for a shock because, as a personal and business performance coach this will initially go against everything you may expect me to say...

So - here goes... are you ready?

IF ALL ELSE FAILS LOWER YOUR STANDARDS!

What!?  I know!  I'm supposed to be the one revving you up to raise your game, raising the bar every time you reach it and asking you to s-t-r-e-t-c-h yourself outside your comfort zone constantly.  So What the heck am I doing suggesting this?

Well, sometimes, we simply need to give ourselves a break, let ourselves off the hook, step back and stop pushing so damn hard!   And, in the wierdest way, when you do this things begin to happen.  How come?Well, let me explain.

Right now, rest your hand against something solid like your desk or the wall.  For now just feel it.  Next PUSH against it with all your strength.  What do you feel now? How is it different to before?  Yes - you've got it.  When you rest your hand against something solid it offers you support.  When you PUSH against it, it offers you RESISTANCE!  And what's more, every fibre in your body becomes tense and stressed.

So, by taking the pressure off, by LOWERING YOUR STANDARDS, just for a while and recognising and rejoicing in what you already can do, you will feel the support, the security and the safety of where you are right now.  And, at the very same time, that feeling of relaxation that comes from taking off the pressure opens you up magically to receiving.

Receiving what?  You name it?  New ideas and intuitions,clearer focus, better feelings.  You will notice you can see,hear and feel more clearly and with this, the actions you take will be perfectly timed and infinitely more effective.

But remember....as with anything I suggest to you, don't simply accept it, give it a go and make your own decision.
