change?What would you do if you knew you could not FAIL?

Everything we do is either to Avoid Pain or Gain Pleasure! Procrastination – you believe taking action would be more

painful than just putting it off…… Ask yourself “What prevents me from doing whatever it takes

to get my dream job?” Link the pain to the behavior you want to stop. Link pleasure to the behavior you want to adopt. Write down 4 actions that you need to take that you have

been putting off?– Under each action write down “Why haven’t I taken the action? What pain have I

linked to taking this action?– What will it cost me if I don’t take action NOW?– Write down all the pleasures you will receive by taking each of the actions right

now………………….

Why We Act or Don’t Act?

you feel even more excited– Breathe the way you would breathe

and say “YES” with intensity Go back to original state Snap your fingers and say “YES” !

unstoppable, felt totally energized and excited

• Put a look on your face that makes you look as if you were unstoppable, felt totally energized and excited– create an auditory anchor

• Say the things that you would say to yourself if you were unstoppable, felt totally energized and excited

you don’t take. Vision: Nothing happens unless first a dream. Persistence: Energy and persistence will conquer all

things. Teamwork: Snowflakes are one of the nature’s most

fragile things, but just look at what they can do when they stick together.

Risk: You cannot discover new oceans unless you have the courage to lose sight of the shore.

Attitude: Attitudes are contagious….
