If a miracle happened TONIGHT while you were sleeping and you woke up tomorrow changed into the perfect version of yourself, how would your life be different?
This is the most important question I could ask you. Why? Because, once you are able to answer this question, you will be able to attract the exact result you are looking for. Until you answer this question, all other exercises will be less powerful.
We will not move on in training until you have written down the perfect version of yourself. As you are pondering what that looks like, don’t focus on the critical aspects of what you DON’T want. Only focus on the end result you desire.
What does the non-smoker version of you look like? Have you lost weight? Have you increased your income? Have you spent time with family doing things you couldn’t before? Have you increased your retirement fund with the money you are saving by not buying cigarettes anymore?
Exercise:
Exactly and succinctly write down what the perfect version of you looks like. Seriously, stop right here, right now and complete this exercise. Grab the workbook or a piece of paper and begin writing.
Once you have completed it, ask yourself “How confident am I that I feel I can become this?” (Scale 1-10). Right down that number ______.
That was a hard question to ask yourself, wasn’t it?
When you were thinking about your perfect self, you probably thought about how far away that ideal seemed from where you are right now. It might even have a tinge of hopelessness attached to it.
But, wait, there is hope. Let’s not focus on the number 10 right now. Let’s just focus on a score that is only 1 notch higher. We are going to take this a step at a time.
Exercise:
The One Thing That Fixes It All – This worksheet will help you break down the one thing you could do that would help you move up a notch. I’m not expecting you to complete this worksheet at this time. We will come back to this after you learn more principles and tools. I wanted to include it now, bookmark it if you will so that you can see where this tool fits in. After your toolbox is filled with techniques and principles, you can decide which one thing will help you move the notch the quickest.
