Thief of Time

“Procrastination is the fear of success. People procrastinate because they are afraid of the success that they know will result if they move ahead now. Because success is heavy, carries a responsibility with it, it is much easier to procrastinate and live on the "someday I'll... philosophy.” Dennis Waitley

If somebody offers you a key to solving your biggest life problems would you take action? Some of us would--these are the achievers-the go getters. They are bound and determined to find success and most likely will. Still others are the thinkers--they have to review, document, and solicit other opinions of the offer. These often fall victim to analysis paralysis. Some of us are just too beaten up and self sabotage by not moving forward or by letting opportunity slip by due to delay or inaction. These people fail to show up on time to free giveaways, neglect to mail in their prize entries, continually cancel or reschedule appointments, or they find excuses as to why the offer is not legitimate. There are actually a few people for whom the offer is not a good fit and those are people who are satisfied with the status quo or who are pleased with their level of mediocrity--it gives them a reason to complain, an identity, or a reason to solicit sympathy from the world.

I often encounter people who say they are willing to change their lives for the better. They have physical, emotional, or professional situations which are the source of endless amounts of grief and unhappiness. I have a knack of being able to spot who is ready to change and who is not and who is just offering lip service. People who are ready to change their lives--show up--they are present in mind and body and seek to embrace the change they seek head on. They ask how high do I have to jump? How long will it take? Can you show me now and I am doing it right? Price is never an object when you really, really want something. People save for years to afford a piece of porcelain to hide in a cabinet, or a piece of brightly colored cloth to wear once. People spend their money on get rich schemes and snake oil everyday because it appeals to their sense of an easy solution. But offer a real change--requiring a real commitment and the weak falter every time. Perhaps that is why they are in the situation to begin with--they fail to not only recognize they are the architects of their own misfortunes, they fail to embrace the opportunity to be and do better. Another factor is whether or not you trust the Professional adviser to be able to deliver the goods. People secretly ask, "What makes you such an expert or better able to guide me?" To those people I answer; I have the experience and expertise garnered by real life and academic prowess. Let's face it--most people solicit life advice from their friends and acquaintances who often are in similar or worse situations than they are. These advisers lack objectivity, technique and often discretion. People turn to strangers, carnival workers, and telephone mediums to guide them in the most sensitive of life matters, but yet balk when I suggest strategic life coaching. They tell me they can't afford it, or the timing is not right for a variety of reasons. Still others have embraced change and feel better, are happier, and well on their way to leading productive--self determined lives.
