   This is such a reality check. Straight forward and blunt, frank honesty and I appreciate that. Thanks for this.

   I’m going to push myself harder tonight and tomorrow during class in between conference and every day until the end of the goal.
   I am in charge of my destiny and needed a shove to stick to my goals.

   I appreciate the reality check. I think it’s important to be completely honest with yourself and take a deep look at what’s really holding you back. For me, I’ve held back on recording a gospel album for two main reasons: laziness & procrastination. It’s time.

   While watching this past conference, I felt it was not only my duty to inspire the world through my music but also a privilege and honor to serve the Lord in that capacity.

   Am I ready? We learn by doing so here I go. Thank you for your inspiring and motivating words. More importantly thank you for eating, sleeping, and living your words. I know you well enough to know that you are really all that you’re cracked up to be. You’re the truth. Thank you again.

   Thank you, Setema! And “when the student is ready, the teacher will appear”! In the past year I’ve finally “been ready” to A)go back to school to get my degree, B)start learning Martial Arts to get my Black Belt, C)build my business by networking, learning “computer-stuff”, and more, D)so much more! Thank you for helping inspire me to “CRUSH IT!” and to “Add Value”! Working daily to do both!

    Thank you Setema. I have always stated, Obstacales are things you see… When you take your eyes off of your goals ! To have someone take the time and energy to break it down step by step, what a relief. HATS OFF TO YOU ! If I may, I am going to print out your words of inspiration and hang them so I can see them all the time while I am working. Have a blessed and goal filled day.

    Waaa~You are crazy Setema~

    You seems like a mind reader! I’m really not kidding.

    I feel like most of the words above are describing what has experienced by me started not long ago.

    Especially like “When you finally decide to get brutally honest with yourself…”, “When you take 100% responsibility for your life….”, “When you stop blaming other people…”. Those are so damn true.

    This one…”When you decide to be vulnerable and admit to your weaknesses…”. Oh my god! How did you knew that?? Hehehe…

    Thanks so much for all the so damn super extreme inspiring words! Hehe. 10 q 10 q!

    As usual my friend, Setema, you are so brutally honest and that’s one of the many qualities I love about you. Every thing you say in your post and email is where I have finally gotten to!

    I’ve been playing small and safe and causing myself and my family, as a single mom, so much pain! Before even reading your email and this post, I made a commitment to God and myself that I will no longer tolerate poverty and failure in my life because I fail to DO every thing that I KNOW to do!! I REFUSE to die with all my potential locked inside of me. I have finally got the revelation and breakthrough I’ve been needing and missing for so many, many years!!

    I am so excited about my days and future and look forward to provide awesome value for as many people that I am called to serve and make a contribution. NO LONGER will I stand on the sidelines watching life steal my dreams and calling!! FORWARD MARCH — ACTION ACTION AND MORE ACTION IS MY DAILY MANTRA!!

    Thank you Semeta for being open and honest and challenging me to think outside the box and look at my inner core beliefs and disputing every one of them and helping me to NEVER allow room for excuses or the blame came!!! I needed everything you have shared on our coaching calls!! Being one of the winners of your contest was ordained by God!!

    good for you Yvonne…Once we start doing what we said we would do and know we should do we’re all good…Every day counts. Keep going and be real with yourself. If you don’t feel like taking action then assess why…ask the hard questions and dig deep and find out what is going on. Thanks for commenting my friend. We’ll pick up next week on Live Strong.

    HI Carol. Great Questions!

    Here’s the answer:

    Your choice…
    No more excuses, no more stories…no more reasons…
    By excuses I mean “It’s someone else’s fault, I couldn’t because ____________, I couldn’t do this because ____________.
    Same goes with stories. We make up stories all the time (http://setemagali.com/2011/02/10/stories/)
    Reasons OR Results…It can’t be both.

    so what do you want? What result or results do you want in your life that you currently don’t have or aren’t getting?
    What outcome are you “waiting” for?

    The truth is that we never get the real results by reading instructions (Napoleon Hill). Action is EVERYTHING.
    So get clear about what you want in your life.
    Then look at why you don’t have it. It usually comes down to a STORY we are telling ourselves…a script, a paradigm, a deeply rooted belief that stops and/or prevents ACTION to get it.

    The “Shadow” within us, the storyteller that stops us from producing, creating and achieving is subtle. He/she is clever. Your shadow won’t let you see the real obstacles. It hides, maneuvers and secretly rationalizes and justifies to the point that we actually believe it…we turn the lies into ‘TRUTH’ and all of a sudden we look back at our lives and realize we made up all the stuff and believed it to be truth.

    For example: When someone wants to lose weight and get healthier it’s easy…go to the gym, or exercise in the park or walk, eat more frequently, healthier meals, avoiding sugar, junk, etc. etc and they will see results. It’s that easy…

    But the “shadow” in us, the Destroyer in us will make up every REASON and story why we shouldn’t and “can’t”…have too many kids, had to do this, had to do that…they offered me food…was too tired…

    I’ve committed to get up 5 days a week at 5:45 AM and hit the gym. I’m in New Zealand right now and on Monday I didn’t want to get up. I was very tired, up late from the night before…blab blah yadi yadi yadi story story story…but I got up, got ready and went.

    Even when I”m at home and I’m up with my son till 3:30 AM with his fever or whatever else is going on, I get up at 5:45 AM and go to the gym…I show up.

    No excuses, no stories, no B.S.

    So taking clear cut specific action is the key. The action you take is based off of what you want and desire in the end or outcome.

    And believe me, the story, the old cherished deeply embedded beliefs will NOT go easily. It will fight, kick, scream, make you feel guilty, beat you up etc.

    Reasons OR Results…

    So are you ready?

    Only you can decided. When you are READY-Real Energy Action Do-it-now Yes…you’ll stop lying to yourself and making excuses and start seeing the world how other successful, happy, wealthy, healthy whatever results type of people you want see it.

    No need to beat yourself up and feel guilty or I “should” have this and I “should” be this…stop shoulding on yourself and just start where you are.

    One day at a time…one commitment at a time…one meal at time, one word at a time, one promise at a time etc.

    Carol, I have great respect for you. I honor your journey. I hope you can feel the authenticity and transparency in my reply.

    Now go and get it…you and you alone are responsible for the results of your life. Even God is bound to help us when we follow the principles and laws that He follows…

    He believes in you and so do I.
