Years ago I copied and pasted this to my word pad on my computer. I have to admit, modern technology makes learning so much easier.
Well that is, copying and pasting information saves time writing to one’s notebook!
I love books and will always say:” Give me a book to hold and read is the way to go to learn.” I find the hours spent sitting in front of a computer, and the glare on my eyes takes the joy out of learning.
So with that said, I wish to share Sandy Wilson’s article on Internal belief system change. Where this came from, I have no idea. When I saved it, I have no idea. I do know that I am glad I went to my documents to remind me:
I still have much to change in me before I can expect others to change for me!
“All of us live our lives based on our internal belief system-we act without thinking about the why behind the actions.
In order to create change, it is necessary to get to the core belief behind the action.”- by Sandy Wilson
Five Short Chapters on Change
Chapter 1-
I walk down a street and there’s a deep hole in the sidewalk. I fall in.
It takes forever to get out. It’s not my fault.
Chapter 2–
I walk down the same street. I fall in the hole again. It still takes a
long time to get out.It’s not my fault.
Chapter 3-
I walk down the same street. I fall in the hole again. It’s becoming a habit.
It is my fault. I get out immediately.
Chapter 4-
I walk down the same street and see the deep hole in the sidewalk.
I walk around it.
Chapter 5-
I walk down a different street.
How does giving up on your resolutions make you feel?
Not so good? People often say:
“Oh, I just have no will power,”
“I’m just to lazy,”
“It’s not worth the effort.”
Think about this: There is no failure, only more information.
What did you learn about yourself when you gave up on your resolution?
Can you pinpoint the moment you gave up?
Do you remember exactly what caused you to no care anymore?
