Reinvention

I realize that only like 4 people ever look at this blog, and I make some very long posts that I am sure they dont read all the way. :) If I can impact or change just one of your lives for the better by what I write then it is all worth it.

At a convention one of the speakers talked about reinventing yourself and getting past all the negative crap in the world to reach your dreams. Jim Kocher, Senior National Sales Director, said it is all about release.
Release yourself from your fears. Fear that you arent good enough; dont know enough; of failure; of commitment; of people; of people depending on you; speaking. All of these things are small flashing in the back of your mind that can end your pursuit of your dreams.

Release your past. Everything bad in your past like bad relationships; failures either business or academic; bitterness or anger and malice towards people; and most of all your successes could be holding you back from truly trying. I know myself I was in that boat. I felt like I was on top of the world and had everything going for me and I stopped trying to better myself. I became content and stagnant. Drop your past and start over be a new better person.

Release your guilt. Feelings of guilt over missed oppurtunity; failures; letting people down; bad decisions; of false guilt laid on you by your friends or family. No person has the right to judge your priorities. You have done what you have and it has made you the person you are today. Either people can accept that or they can find someone else to bombard with negativity.

Release your limiting beliefs. Thinking that you cant succeed because of language barriers; you have been here to long to move on; you arent a good speaker; you havent been here long enough to learn everything; might give bad advice; or that money corrupts and to set a goal on having money is the root of all evil.

Release the brakes. What is your best? Discover your best and see how great you can be.
Think of yourself less and not less of yourself. Good, better, best. Never let it rest, untill your good is better, and your better is best.

If you pull out all the negative things holding you back from reaching your dreams there is no limit to how high your dreams can be. Without a doubt you will reach them and exceed them beyond anything you could wish for.
