From Failure to Success with Positive Thinking

by Kevin Hogan

Some gurus say it takes 21 days to break a habit. Fact is, it takes about FIVE.

BUT, to REPLACE that habit with a new "default behavior" can take several weeks...thus look at 21 days as a MINIMUM.

The actions and reactions you develop in response to letdowns are nothing more than habits that you can rid yourself of with effort and a specific workable "plan."

KEYPOINT: Want to know if it's about you and your nonconscious mind? If you find yourself saying, "This might work," or "All we can do is try," or something like that...it's your will, which is weak, coming up against decades of ingrained habits, which are very strong.

And...most of the time, without a workable plan and significant effort, failure is indeed the result.

Your own thinking and/or nonconscious mind is literally "fencing you in"!

Exercise 2: Connecting Your Habits

Leave yourself some space to write notes after each item.

2. When you get to the end of the list, go back and fill in those habits you have developed as a consequence of waiting to follow through. For example, if you listed "The Atkins Diet," your habit might be "overindulging on pasta because I didn't eat any for six months."

Some of your habits may be simple to change; others may require deviation from your intended course. In the pasta example, you might realize you can still eat pasta, just not as often as you have been while making up for the loss.

3. Come up with an alternative for each habit that you can live with, so you don't short yourself before you get started.

You might decide to have pasta twice a week instead of every other night.

Make sense?

Now that you have a "rough draft list", you can start implementing successful changes one step at a time.

4. Choose one or two habits you'd like to change, and be sure to implement the changes daily for 30 days in a row.

It's very helpful to keep a journal or a chart to remind yourself what you're working on and WHY.

Remember, your habits, behaviors and attitudes don't have a present-time "why." That was taken care of 20 years ago.

You can also treat yourself to a reward after the successful completion of each habit-breaking cycle. Turns out reward is pretty important...I'll save the neuroscience for another day... just know that it is!

I've identified 12 of the life patterns which cause us to trip up - and make the same mistakes again and again. To discover which of the 12 patterns you have been the victim of and how to eliminate self-sabotage in your life (or those of your clients) you can pick up the CD program and workbook, LIFESTORMS: The Paradox of Overcoming Self Sabotage to Achieve Love, Power, Money and Happiness.

Discover why life often brings you exactly what you don't want...and how self sabotage can hide around every corner. Some people have guessed at the bizarre nature of self sabotage. Guess no more. Self sabotage is very real in everyone's life. It is completely devastating and 100% resolvable!

• Do you ever know you should start on a project but don't?
• Do you have projects that you have started but never finished?
• Do you ever say the one wrong thing at the wrong time?
• Have you ever had things going well in life only to have everything blow up in a day?
• Have you tried to be so careful not to make a mistake that you were shocked when you made a truly costly one?
• Have you ever promised yourself to stay out of trouble in some way only to find yourself in the same trouble or worse again?

This program is the first program ever made public that shows you how to identify specific self sabotaging behaviors and negative life patterns. Better? You can ultimately erase those life patterns and rewrite new "schemas" into your brain that will allow you to meet your goals and experience fulfilling relationships.

Here is what you will learn:

• How to identify which of the 12 negative life patterns you live.
• How to find the triggers of the lifestorms that you just can't believe you experience.
• How to change the self sabotage into success, happiness or something productive.
• How to remove almost all obstacles between you and your goals.
• How to understand those around you so you don't push their buttons.
• How to predict your behavior and that of others.
• How to actually achieve your goals so they are more than just a dream.
