Finished but not done

Well I am finished with TOOLS but certainly not done. In fact just yesterday I forgot my TOOLS and said something unencouraging about my business to my mother-in-law. Perhaps I was too lax since I am on vacation. But it was a good alert to always be "alert"! Anyway I have my checklists, go»

Day 79

Wow. I can't believe I am almost done. This is going well. I am doing most of the things on the checklist every day. It seems like you really have to memorize it somehow to remember everything throughout the day. I try to read through it every morning before starting my day. I have also be»

The negativity Blob

I finally had a break-thru last week when I had to handle a trying situation. When the thought of how did I attract this difficult situation persisted, I suddenly experienced the negative thoughts that just kept coming and comin. I realized that it was a "habit" to stay in their company, a»

Day 24

I think I was hitting bumps up until BUMP Day and now I feel like cruising! This is exciting material and I am so grateful to Coach Steele for creating it and offering it for free. I got my husband to start participating with me and we remind each other throughout the day of things on the chec»

Using Tools Helps

I was able to use TOOLS to help me this week. A week ago was the saddest day in my life because my beloved Guru died. Even though he was 91 and failing health-wise, it was still a shock to my nervous system. But after a day of grieving, whenever I felt the deep sadness coming on, I would remind myse»

Fears-Day 13

I was hard-pressed to list any fears on Day 13 so I didn't. My thoughts on fears were that I was pretty fearless. In fact whenever I did feel fearful in the past, I always remembered something that helped. It was something Princess Diana said to a friend the day before she died. She said "I»

Ten steps

I really like the lesson for today about the 10 steps to success. The Coach really gets into the nitty-gritty. I can see where my past intentions of success got lost in the impatience for change and the inability to change basics like excuses and complaints. I can see that I am already becomin»

Complaining

I think my mother taught me that complaining changed things because whenever she complained everyone rallied to get her what she wanted. Life with her was intolerable otherwise. I have been accused more than once of "always complaining" which I just thought was incorrect. I was just statin»

Excuses/Blame

Well, Coach, you got me on this one. Not accepting blame is the one thing my husband says I do. He thinks it's because when I was growing up my family was so hard on me, that to accept blame meant I was "in big trouble" of "as good as dead". I wonder it that's really the »
