Update from There Is Urgency... Event last Thursday, 7/16

We had a great session last Thursday evening. We dealt with some interesting perspectives on the topic of urgency. Judging by the level of note taking, and great feedback, most participants were provoked into thinking about what they have dreamed to achieve, but done nothing to make real.

Let me ask you a question? How many of you could say the same thing? Be honest! How many big dreams have you thought about, but because of the economy, your finances, your family, health, your job, where you live, etc... you've put off until "someday"? If this is you, you've got been infected with mind viruses and have contracted something I call "Excuseitis".

Did you know that "someday" means "never"? The reason this is true is because your days are numbered - whether you know it or not! From the base year of your birth, add 100, and it's a pretty safe bet that by that year you will have moved on to the life that follows physical death. There is urgency...

You see, Goal Achievement requires leadership, leadership of your Mind and Body. (self-leadership). YOU are made up of three divisions:

1. Soul (I call this the "I" in You - the spiritual You that is in direct connection with the spirit of truth - God)
2. Mind (or brain)
3. Body (the physical you)

The Soul (the "I") in YOU has the responsibility to lead, to set the objectives, the goals and the dates by which the goals must be achieved. The "I" doesn't need to concern itself with how the goal will be achieved, only "what" is to be achieved and by when. It is up to the "Mind" to figure out the how (create the plan) and then direct the "Body" to get to work achieving the goal (see illustration below) That's it!


Simple, right? Wrong... If it were this simple, everyone would simply set and achieve their goals, and that would be that! The problem is the "I" fails to lead, because leadership is too hard. When this happens, the Mind is left to its own devices to direct the body however it feels. If it feels good do it, avoid discomfort at all cost! And since there is no oversight, or accountability form the "I", everything just drifts. Before you know it, your time is up and the curtain falls - you die with your goals unrealized. But it doesn't have to be this way. Next Thursday evening, 7/23 at 6:30pm, we're going to discuss how to overcome this lack of leadership to put your Soul back in control of the Mind and Body, to provide the leadership necessary to achieve your worth while life-transforming goals! You don't want to miss this event.

And remember...

"Until one is committed, there is hesitancy, the chance to draw back -- Concerning all acts of initiative (and creation), there is one elementary truth that ignorance of which kills countless ideas and splendid plans: that the moment one definitely commits oneself, then Providence moves too. All sorts of things occur to help one that would never otherwise have occurred. A whole stream of events issues from the decision, raising in one's favor all manner of unforeseen incidents and meetings and material assistance, which no man could have dreamed would have come his way. Whatever you can do, or dream you can do, begin it. Boldness has genius, power, and magic in it. Begin it now. Engage, then the mind grows heated. Begin it, and the work will be completed." - Margaret Mead
