procrastination and tools

 I keep losing sight of the reason I started tools to life- making myself take action rather than procrastinate.  Todays topic of fear, like many of the topics, brings the procrastination issue to the forefront.  I procrastinate out of fear and thus make my fears even more likely to come tr»

everything comes back to procrastination

 The lesson today was on lying to myself.  Doing the exercise I found that everything once again came back to procrastination.  My lies are that I will take care of everything tomorrow, that I know what I need to do and am capable of doing it and I will REALLY, REALLY solve everything by do»

Time

 As usual, todays lesson, day 24, hit a nerve, no 2 nerves.1: Time- its use and its waste.   When I turned 60, I took solace in the fact that I should have at least 20 more good years.  But Coach is right.  The way to look at it is that no matter how young or old you are, time not»

action

 Day 33 has a number of messages but the 2 primary ones really appeal to me:1: action is what produces results.  Planning and reading and goal setting are all great but without action they are a waste.2: set one day goals: while longer terms goals are necessary, if you cant meet the daily goals »
