I am the only one!

I thoroughly believe one of the most important rules to follow if you are going to make changes in your life is; “Quit blaming everyone else for your problems. Whether your delimma is weight, finances, personal relationships, lack of time………the list could go on forever, it is all within your control. We as humans find it very hard to accept blame. Part of our genetic makeup is “Fight or Flight”. Your mind does the same thing, and more often than not it decides “flight”.
The moment you decide that you are in control, you will make the changes necessary to get just what you want. The information to do so is already in your brain. You are just keeping it in a closet. LET IT OUT!!!!! Is it your bosses responsibility to give you more money? No. It is your responsibility to earn it! Is it anyone elses responsibility to tell you what to eat, how much and when to excercise? NO. You must make these decisions for yourself! Personal Relationships? It is up to you to decide how you will treat others and if they treat you bad in return, it is your responsibility to fix that or be rid of the person.
I mention the above three because they seem to be most common in peoples lives. If someone treats you bad, you are letting them do so. If your boss doesn’t give you that pat on the back, you didn’t earn it. If you are overweight or obese, no one is going to pick you up and make you get off that couch.
Repeat this over and over to yourself; “I am the only one who knows what I will lose, if I don’t make this change!”
