18.   What do you most dislike about myself? 

What do I most dislike about myself?   

Are you willing to love this part of yourself too?


19.    Are You Understanding and Forgiving or Judging?

When there is no understanding, there is judgment. When there is judgment, there is no understanding. Judgment and no understanding is a venomous breeding ground for the fear based insane ego mind to look for differences and fault.

Are you willing to forgive your “unhealthy” ego mind for its needs based beliefs, emotions and thoughts?


20.   Will You Feel The Fear And Act?

Will you stay awake and observe the fear of your “dysfunctional” ego mind, forgive it and act to make this Your Best Quarter Ever?


21. 
 Are You Taking Responsibility & Making The Quiet Time To Reflect, Give Thanks             And Make Your Plans? 

A colleague of mine once joked that he was “always on”.  When you are “always on” you run the risk of being vulnerable to the constant barrage of misinformation that is directed at you by the “unhealthy” ego mind that it’s interpretation of some of the challenges that you are facing are being manifested way out of proportion into becoming the attack of a marauding tribe, a viscous animal or when on the hunt for survival. 

Are you awake and are you taking Responsibility & Making The Quiet Time To Reflect, Give Thanks And Make Your Plans?

What does this mean?

Are you scheduling quiet time?

Quiet time for me means waking up at 5am or earlier and practicing being still.  Being the observer of the observer.  Being thoughtless.  Being mindful of my thoughts that they are not imposed by the “unhealthy” ego mind’s obsession of doing for the sake of meeting unmet needs of;  Approval, Control, Perfection, Power, Recognition, Safety & Worthiness.

Once stillness had been achieved this can include giving thanks.

Are you giving thanks for the many blessings in your business and personal lives?

Once stillness is achieved this can include reflecting on your plans and being open new ideas and thoughts on how you can improve your plans.

Are you reflecting on your plans and being open to new ideas and thoughts on how you can improve your plans?
 

22.   Are You Open To Trust That Success Is Certain?

Once your Vision, Values, Goals, Projects & Actions, Measures & Time Blocking are completed ….

What if you were awake and trusted that success to your plans is certain and that you are turning that success over to something that is much more infinite than your “unhealthy” ego mind?

Just think of it.  You have laid the plans out and the time is scheduled.  All you have to do is trust, show up and do your absolute best and success is assured.

This reminds me of when I was 8 years old and I got a chemistry set for Christmas.  One of the experiments was to plant beans in a glass sided planter so that you could observe the progress of the bean seeds.  The glass sided planter didn’t give me a clear enough picture, I was too impatient.  Every once in a while ( every few hours ) I would be yanking those bean seeds out to see if they had sprouted.  Do you think that they grew? 

Some people do that with their plans.  Are they awake or asleep in their “unhealthy” ego mind?

Are you making your plans, thinking them through and allowing the space and time for them to evolve?

What if you intended the outcome to be perfect, no matter what?

What if you lived this way and conducted your business like this all the time – to be not so much in the “unhealthy” ego mind?

What if you were able to get to the real source of your stress? 

What if you were able to observe your “unhealthy” ego mind and understand it, love it and forgive it &  yourself for it didn’t know what it was doing because you were asleep.  It was all a dream.

What would it be like?
