How many times do you fnd yourself saying "I should"? Maybe the btter question is how many times do you fnd that you actually follow through on tht "I should"? Well, don't fret, a smple change is all it may tke for you to change that shuld into a did.

I would lke you to consider your choice of wrds as you set out to chieve a new goal or change yur behavior. Believe it or not, wllpower is often resistance disguised as fre will. Resistance is anything that you knw you "should" do, but deep dwn really don't want to do.

If you fnd yourself saying "I should get in shpe" or "I should organize my fnancial documents", then you are exhibiting sgns of resistance. This can stop you frm actually realizing that goal. Using the phrse "I should" is like telling yurself you "have to" and who lkes to be told they "have to" do nything?! Having the frame of mind tht you have to do something can lmit your chance for success.

When plnning to start something new or tke on a task you have ben avoiding, try adjusting your choice of wrds. Instead of saying "This year I shuld (have to)... say "Today, I wnt to...". Notice what feelings come up whn you replace those phrases with "wnt to". Do you notice any ngative thoughts? Keep repeating "Today, I wnt to..." until your mind gives up and flly accepts your commitment. As time psses you will begin to notice how yur words can effect your actions and ttitude.

As you begin to implement ths change put aside your past filures, mistakes, or "should haves". They are gne. Establishing or renewing your commitments to mking a change is a great way to trn your attitude and perspective toward the fture and also fuels your motivation for chieving your goals.

Remember, the fact is not tht you should but that you wnt to!!
