Think for a moment about the significant Subliminal Guru people in your life: it could be parents or grandparents, teachers, religious leaders, inspirational celebrities, neighbors or friends. How many of them were rich or famous? How many of them were recognized as major corporate successes? I'd be amazed if any of them were any of those things. Yet, you have a uniquely significant gift that all the rest of us are waiting for, whether or not you or we are aware of it.
Your midlife transition invites you to explore and experience that creative spark within you that you've been ignoring and putting aside for far too long. Every day you hesitate to grab hold of it means another piece of your precious legacy has been forever lost. You don't need to be just another hole in the water; you can make a difference; you can leave behind a legacy that transforms the world. So, what, exactly is it that you're waiting for?
So you've landed on a goal for yourself, something has caught your eye and you've thought "That would be nice to have!" You realize you need to think about how to get this attractive thing, so you develop some kind of a plan to get you there. Why is it that, usually sooner than later, you have wandered off track, your plan has fallen by the wayside and you aren't much closer to your goal than when you started.Often we're told that it's lack of "will power" or "poor motivation" or "lack of focus". These are all things that sound like some sort of vague weakness on our part. I'd like to suggest that frequently the culprit is the failure to actually make a totally firm decision at the time we set our goal, and failing to totally commit to make that decision a reality.
