Do As The Cowboys Do
Published on November 04, 2014
There are great and simple philosophies that stand the test of time and can serve us today perhaps better than they did from the point of origin. What I look for every day are the words and philosophies that can help others stay the course and not give in to the liar in their head that says its not working. It is so sad to know just how many of us stop so close to the prize. Often standing just outside the door that could open to reveal what we so badly wanted. One of the calls I receive the most often from clients is when they have fallen off the exercises of one of the coaching programs. In the moment they often feel beaten and are on the brink of quitting altogether. There is the misconception. If you stop and never take another step then the goal you were seeking will forever be out of reach. If however you get knocked off for a period and "pause" the prize is still there for the taking. I took one of those calls today and when it ended I felt good that the client let go of what was not done and was committed to moving forward. There is great power to all of this. If you fell off going to the gym, health is still yours if you get back there. If you have been on the attack for pizzas and cake for the past 2 weeks, your ideal weight is, well, waiting for you to get back on your diet. If you have not called a single new client in the past 3 weeks know that they are there and waiting to do business with you. All you need do is to pick up the phone. This all reminded me today of the great lesson of the past born from the days of the Wild West. If you fall off of your horse get back on. Sage advice to us all. Do as the cowboys do. Have an excellent day.
Be well,
