Do Over! October 22, 2007

Posted by admin in : 90 Day Challenge, Discover The New You, New You Day, New You Eve, New You Resolution , trackback

It’s Monday October 22nd, 2007 - and today is going to be the Official Prelaunch of the Discover The New You Blog / Vlogs / Teleseminars / and Webinars!

Have you ever heard of a “Do Over”?  In one of my previous Blog Posts - I stated that one of my favorite movies of all time is City Slickers. Not only does it have a fun cast - but it’s just chocked full of lessons. One of those lessons is when Billy Crystal tells Daniel Stern his life is a “Do Over”. And I just love that!

Why isn’t this concept more widely utilized?

Let’s take yours truly for a minute. When I started my 90 Day Challenge - my intention was to make a Blog Post and a Vlog Post every day. Guess what? It didn’t happen! But on the first day I missed - I didn’t throw up my hands and say, “Oh well! I screwed that up! I might as well not even do this challenge now!” Instead - I just continued on where I was supposed to be.

One of my mentors - Mr. Dave Savula - was recently speaking about the concept of “Be Here A Year From Now“. The idea of this concept is to think outside of short-term and to never give up. And as motivating as it is - it just didn’t cut the mustard with Mr. Savula. He said, “I say take it away / throw it away! Be here FOREVER!”

That’s awesome! If you believe that if you have 1% doubt then you’re out - then FOREVER is THE ONLY option!

Even though I refer to a “90 Day Challenge” - as long as I don’t kick the oxygen habit - I’ll still be posting on Day 100, 1000, and 10,000! I won’t let a missed day (or week) - keep me from my goals and my dreams!

The worst couple months of stop and start goals are almost upon us. What? The holidays and the New Year. People will eat like there’s no tomorrow for the next couple of months - making and breaking diets along the way. And then come the first of the year - they’ll promise themselves that THIS year will be THE year everything changes! And if you’re a member of a gym - you’re well aware of this! The first couple weeks of January - you can’t find an open machine! But by mid-February - you could swing a jump rope and not hit anyone!

Why do people - yours truly included - do this? We say, “THIS year is the year I eat right, exercise every day, and start living better!” Then as soon as life steps in and blacks their eye and knocks them off schedule - it’s over! Instead of screaming, “DO OVER” - and resetting - they smack the mat and give up!

If you REALLY want to make a positive and permanent change - you have to decide you’re in it forever! You have to decide that no matter what life gives you - you’re going to make constant strides toward your goals!

What are some steps that will help you towards doing this?

There are several other ways to accomplish your goals - but the above steps will get you going on the right path!

And to assist you even more - I’ll be:

Do yourself a favor! Don’t wait until January 1st, 2008 to get started! Make today New You Day! Make tonight New You Eve! Make a New You Resolution right now! You don’t even know if you’ll be around tomorrow - let alone months from now! January 1st is only a day! If we’re blessed - we get thousands of em’ over a lifetime! Make EVERY one of em’ count - and Discover The New You!
