“you are in charge of your mind and therefore your results.”
To achieve any goal it is vital to be 100 % responsible for your actions.
Many people attach blame on destiny, circumstances, upbringing etc if they do not achieve their life goals. They will believe that they are destined to live an unfulfilled life. The same people will also comment “so and so is very lucky” the thought that perhaps a progressive plan was involved to realise goals never crosses their mind. This is because they have not been taught how their mind functions or perhaps have not been made aware or exposed to the vast resources contained with the mind/body system. They’re unaware that changing your internal representation will affect your external reality.
To step back an examine a situation by asking “What steps can I take to improve this NOW ? ” or “ Why am I resisting this task ? ” are great starting points. Adjusting your thinking, changing your model, trusting your unconscious or learning new and improved skills will allow any goal to be achieved. Self-sabotage is not permissible, it is a function of skewed observation or a poor mind set.
This presupposition is essentially concerned with responsibility and ownership of your reality. Another way of expressing this is that you are at Cause not Effect which is expressed C -> E .
In my personal case I had built a small rental business in New Orleans. In 2005 Katrina struck and destroyed every one of my rentals except one. I decided to focus on rebuilding with limited material resources and limited manpower. Many of my friends bailed and decided to abandon their homes – it was their choice. I continued and after three years had rebuilt and expanded my business. That was my choice. At the time the inspirational works of Napoleon Hill and practical psychology of “The Master Key” helped pull me through. I used to give copies of the Master Key to any friends who have hit a barrier or fork in the road.
Had I known about the techniques and methodology of NLP back then I feel it would have been extremely beneficial for both my family and friends.
