The single biggest hardest thing with any kind of program of education or self improvement that you will be involved in is the same no matter what program it is. Whether it’s cooking, getting a degree, learning a language, or becoming the master of your own mind…
The single biggest problem that everyone has…
And I mean it, overwhelmingly, the greatest hurdle is…
It is very likely that you will give up too soon.
You stop before you get there.
Becoming different from what you are now is a process.
It takes time.
Because it takes time you need to keep going until you get there.
You need to keep taking the steps until you know you have arrived.
The trouble is very often you have no sense of perspective within yourself.
Other people will have a better grasp of that than you…
They can see what is happening better than you, in many cases.
Simply because your own mind is much more likely to tell you that you’re no good.
That because of this bump or hiccup or that problem you’re never going to make it.
It never gives you good feedback (so stop listening).
So you quit, all while you’re racing ahead to your goal.
The best thing you can do to avoid this is commit. Fully jump in and don’t stop until you have become the thing you want to become.
Commitment is everything. If you are 100% in, then little bumps don’t matter.
You carry on regardless.
Therefore: Commit. Don’t stop!!!
The other thing is getting a system of outside objective feedback.
A community of people that will be honest with you. A buddy to help out.
Or a coach, if you like, who is so valuable in learning anything.
Coaches are rarely cheap, but always, always, always, the ones I have gotten to help me have always got me results, way faster than I could alone.
Coaches will give you objective feedback, they’ll give you the fast path, they’ll be on you - for your own interest.
They will stop you recreating the wheel, answering doubts, giving you a programme that means you keep going.
The bottom line is that doing it yourself only gets you so far, then your progress slows to a crawl until expert help points you in the right direction again.
The other thing is, to come full circle:
By paying a coach it means I have also been committed, you see?
I’m going to do what I need to in order to get what I say is important to me.
It means I won’t stop too soon.
If you want that, if you want someone who will help you be the master of your own mind, to conquer stress and struggle, to make a life of purpose and fulfilment and contentment, then…

PS. Remember your greatest teachers? Of course you do. They were the people that helped make you the person you are today.
Amazing people. Why not drop them a line and tell them how awesome they are?
You’ll give both of you a lift.
