Take Responsbility for your Life

Take 100% Responsibility for Your Life - STARTING TODAY! by Jack Canfield

 

This isn’t a trick question. Certainly you know the answer—the person who has been responsible for the life you live right now: YOU.

Everything about you is a result of your doing or not doing... Your income. Debt. Relationships. Health. Fitness level. Attitudes and behaviors.

I've often said that you are either creating or allowing everything that is happening in your life.

I think everyone knows this in their hearts, but often times people convince themselves into thinking that external factors are the source of their failure, disappointment, and unhappiness.

External factors do not determine how you live. YOU are in complete control of the quality of your life, by either creating or allowing the circumstances you experience.

When I hear people complain about the state of their life (be it their problems with personal finances, weight, their jobs, or general dissatisfaction), I like to help them see things differently.

If they feel “stuck” and unable to move forward for whatever reason, I ask them to scrutinize both what is working well and what isn’t working well in their life and see how they’ve arrived at where they currently are.

For example, if a woman tells me she’s unhappy with her weight—she travels frequently, and has no to time to exercise or seek healthy foods—I point out that her weight is not a result of her travels and schedule. It’s an outcome of what she chooses to eat and how she chooses to move, regardless of her daily agenda. Why not make a conscious effort to pre-plan healthy meals and snacks, even if it’s on the go, and sneak in 10 minutes here and 10 minutes there to be physically active (hey, I know some frequent flyers that make it a habit of running through airports!).

If you’re frustrated with any area in your life, then it’s time to take a little inventory.

Certainly there are wonderful things happening, whether it’s your job, your romantic relationship, your children, your friends, or your income level.

Your accomplishments are just as important as your missteps.

First, congratulate yourself on your successes; and then take a look at what isn’t working out so well. What are you doing or not doing to create those experiences?

Watch out! If you find yourself beginning to complain about everything but the choices you’ve made, then you need to take a step back. See if you can stop blaming outside factors for your unhappiness.

When you realize that you—and only you—create your experiences, you’ll realize that you canun-create them and forge new experiences whenever you want. How empowering is that! You must take responsibility for your happiness and your unhappiness, your
successes and your failures, your good times and your bad times.

All too often we choose to claim the successes and blame the failures on others or other circumstances. When you stop blaming, however, you can take that energy and redirect it to focus on shaping a better situation for yourself. Blaming only ties up your energy. Imagine roping all the energy into a positive effort.

Some ideas to make this happen:

1. Believe, Believe, Believe! Have unwavering faith in yourself, for good and bad. Make the decision to accept the fact that you create all your experiences. 

2. Take no less than 100% responsibility . Successful people take full responsibility for the thoughts they think, the images they visualize, and the actions they take. 

3. Stop complaining . Look at what you are complaining about. I’m fat. I’m tired. I can’t get out of debt. I won’t ever get a better job.  They are about YOU.

4. Make an immediate change. Are you unhappy about something that is happening right now?   It might be difficult to change or leave a situation, but staying put is your choice so why continue to complain?

You can either do something about it or not. It is your choice and you have responsibility for your choices.

5. Pay attention. Looking to others for help and guidance is helpful, but don’t forget to stay tuned in to yourself—your behavior, attitude, and life experiences. Identify what’s working and what isn’t. If you need to, write it all down. 

6. Face the truth and take action for the long term . You have to be willing to change your behavior if you want a different outcome. You have to be willing to take the risks necessary to get what you want. If you’ve already taken an initial step in the right direction, now’s the time to plan additional steps to keep moving you forward, faster.

Isn’t it a great relief to know that you can make your life what you want it to be? Isn’t it wonderful that your successes do not depend on someone else?

If you need just one thing to do different today, than you did yesterday, make it this:

Commit to taking 100% responsibility for every aspect of your life. Decide to make changes, one step at a time. Once you start the process you’ll discover it's much easier to get what you want by taking control of your thoughts, your visualizations, and your actions!

A little bit about me...

My family! 

Left  to right:: Jason, husband, me, Sydney(age 4), Tyler(age 7) 

I have been married for 11 years this past October and we have 2 wonderful children.  This recent picture is from Christmas Eve after mass.  I have been working from home since 12/09 and it was the best decision I could have made for our family. I am a proud member of Internet CEO moms and I love helping other moms work from home. I have stayed home since my son was born, but I knew with my daughter in preschool 4 days a week that it was time to start working again. I was not necessarily looking to work from home, but also did not want just a "job."  I found the perfect fit for my family and I couldn't be happier. My business allows me to be at home with my kids, help with the finances, and work with others who are looking for the same.

Happy New Year!

I can not believe it is already 2010. Where did the time go? I hope you left 2009 behind with your goals accomplished and ready to set new ones.  I love starting the new year with both personal and business goals.
"What is not started today is never finished tomorrow." Goethe.

I am so excited to start this New Year off on the right foot and with a positive attitude. I have an amazing family that loves and supports me, a wonderful group of ladies called the Internet CEO moms to cheer me on, my health and most importantly the courage to try.
"Courage is the discovery that you may not win, and trying when you know you can lose." Tom Krause

Have the courage this year to follow your goals, try something new, and go for it!
