15 THING I'VE LEARNT NO.

Dear

Following on from my previous newsletter here is the next instalment of 15 things I've learnt about human beings and success in 3,500 hours. No. 8 is "Without a COMPELLING future your life progress is greatly reduced". You can read the precious 7 things I've learnt in the archives.

  • Where will you be in 5 or 10 years time?
  • What will you be doing?
  • Where will you be living?
  • What will be your greatest achievements?

For many, the canvas of their future is blurry. It's only a sketch with a few vague ideas. The canvas of the future is completely blank for some. Their lives are governed by the past and their current circumstances. They have become a responder to circumstances and not a creator. If you have a clear picture of all that you want in your future then the subconscious has the capacity to create strategies and circumstances that will make that a reality.

Having coached a wide variety of clients for 8 years that are living their dreams, I've seen, in real life, exactly how this works.

People often come to me with only a vague idea of what they really want. The present is only the foundation; there are walls, rooms, décor yet to be added. Have you ever driven past a deserted building site. Weeds have taken over, debris is everywhere. Without a c future this is the picture of how your life may end up.

How to create a COMPELLING future

  1. Write down the ten areas of life that are important to you. (if you are not sure what they are ask for the free life balance assessment below)
  2. Dream of what each of those areas might look like in 10 years time if things worked out perfectly.
  3. Write down all your hopeful major achievements in the next 10 years.
  4. Imagine you haven't seen your favourite friend for 10 years and you are going to write a letter to update them on your life from 2008 to 2018.
  5. Date the letter in 10 years time. E.g. 24 April 2018
  6. Commence the letter with the usual greeting and write. 'I can hardly believe that it's been 10 years since we lost contact and I'm now (fill in how old you will be on the 24 April 2008) years of age'.
  7. Detail, in the rest of the opening paragraph, exactly where you are living. I.e. city, country, house, apartment etc. Make it descriptive. Exactly what you want.
  8. Then continue the rest of the letter talking about all the different areas of your life and how wonderful they are.
  9. Make sure you include the changes in thinking and behaviours that made you so successful, fulfilled and balanced.
  10. This letter must be compelling, in that, it excites, inspires and motivates you. It gives you a sense of purpose and mission in life. It looks so fantastic you can't help but go after it.

If you want, email me your letter and I'll tell you what to do next.

Your Life

Your presence is a present to the world.
You're unique and one of a kind.
Your life can be what you want it to be.
Take the days just one at a time.
Count your blessings, not your troubles.
You'll make it through whatever comes along.
Within you are so many answers.
Understand, have courage, be strong.
Don't put limits on yourself.
So many dreams are waiting to be realized.
Decisions are too important to leave to chance.
Reach for your peak, your goal, and your prize.
Nothing wastes more energy than worrying.
The longer one carries a problem, the heavier it gets.
Don't take things to seriously.
Live a life of serenity, not a life of regrets.
Remember that a little love goes a long way.
Remember that a lot..... goes forever.
Remember that friendship is a wise investment.
Life's treasures are people.... together.
Realize that it's never too late.
Do ordinary things in an extraordinary way.
Have health and hope and happiness.
Take the time to wish upon a star.

One of the Leading Self-Study Personal Development Programs in the World

Those who make personal development a priority reap the rewards of greater self-awareness, transformation in their thinking and have the tools to create the results they want to achieve in life. It has become one a multi-billion-dollar growth industry over the last decade. As there are so many products available in this area, it's often difficult to decide which one which is the right one for you. Most individuals and companies tell us THEIR program is 'life changing'. One of the best ways to evaluate the effectiveness of a program is to speak with an actual user we know and trust.

I came across The Delfin Knowledge System™ (DKS) in 1998 which resulted in a genuine life changing experience and has given me the tools to be where I am today. This information was the turning point that helped me to discover my life purpose, which I mention in my autobiography 'A Life of Unlearning - a journey to find the truth'. The 7-day conference I attended in Mexico in 1999 is also mentioned in Chapter 20, 'and the pieces finally fit'. At the conference I created a dream board and I can honestly say that the majority of the amazing things I envisioned on that board have come to pass. The board still sits in front of me in my workspace as a reminder of what lies ahead in my future. You can see why the DKS comes with my strong recommendation.

'A Life of Unlearning'
Revised Second Edition
Totally re-written with an additional 80 pages
avbcc
 
A Life of Unlearning - A Journey to Find the Truth is Australia's Brokeback Mountain and Ted Haggard stories rolled into one. It's a behind the scenes look into the life of a high profile preacher who, believing being gay made him unacceptable to God and others, struggles to resolve his homosexuality and his Christian beliefs. Ultimately, this honest account is as story of resolution, the impact the author's courage has on others and what it means to live authentically.
 

"Human stories, like the one in these pages, play a part in advancing understanding and acceptance. It is the story of a quest to find not only self-acceptance but one of the most powerful forces in nature-human love.."
