Reasons or Results

One powerful three word phrase speaks volumes about humanity - reasons or results.

We either get the results we want in life, or we have a list of reasons why we don’t. The word reasons could easily be replaced by the word excuses also.
Frustration is often the underlying cause for the reasons or excuses that keep us from the results we desire. If you are following my “What the Health Have I Done?!” weight loss challenge journal, you know that my weight was back up two pounds last week from the previous week – that was in spite of eating a strict raw food diet and diligent walking and exercise. I could have easily gotten frustrated and fallen off of the wagon last week like many people might do. Instead, I ignored any frustration that may have entered into my mind and I persisted with more effort and diligence. The result – over 5 pounds of weight lost at weigh-in this week.
The reasons really don’t matter much when you achieve the results you desire – do they? But when you quit or don’t achieve your goals, those reasons become your story, your defense mechanism and your comfort zone.
A life coach can help you unlearn the preconditioning and programming that you experience subconsciously on a daily basis. Once this interference is gone, you’ll find it exponentially easier to attain positive results.
Do you want your life story to be filled with reasons – or results?
