Added for You - Make The Second Half The Best Half

Something happens when you come to the intersection called mid-life; you can look back in retrospect and see your life from an entirely different context. For many this mid-life review brings about a sense of urgency that ignites what is formally called “the mid-life crisis”.  It’s where we can trace the effects back to causes that were initiated by our own poor decision, our inattention to important details, our recklessness, our fear, our misplaced priorities, and our ignorance.  It can be a pretty bleak experience to really understand, maybe for the first time, that your life really could have been much better if you only knew then what you know now.

Ah but there is a subtle sweetness in enduring the emotional upheaval of a mid-life review and that is the fact that you can decide that the second half will be the best half.  You can garner the lessons from your past life by taking the knowledge and the wisdom, and leaving the rest behind. You may also experience grief, regret, anger, and blame. Whatever gut-wrenching emotions you feel should be acknowledged and then gently released. You can choose rather you will continue down your current path or if you will choose a new direction for your life. By consciously deciding how you will live the rest of your life, you can create a life that is extraordinary. 

It’s a mighty sweet deal when you think about it but how do you make it happen?

Here is a 5-point plan that you can customize and implement in 2 to 5 years that will make the next 40 mean more than you could possibly imagine.

Step 1.  Create a life vision, not fantasy, that is worth living into that includes personal, professional, and spiritual growth, leveraging your abilities, gifts, and life experiences, contributing to others, having accomplishments that take you beyond lifestyle and status, and building relationships that are life-enhancing.

Step 2.  Form alliances with those who walk in front of you, beside you, and behind you. There are those who will be teachers and role models in your life, those who will be companions and friends, and those who will be students. Honor each type of relationship for they will all help you advance in life.

Step 3.  Remove barriers to success by installing new personal qualities, beliefs, habits, skills, and relationships as required. Learn to observe your sticking points, your hot buttons, your negative patterns and work to dismantle them one by one with the understanding that this is a lifetime commitment that requires diligence, patience, and self-care.

Step 4.  Learn to fan the fires of your own burning desire.  Replenish and renew yourself in healthy ways and learn to balance the various aspects of your life so that you are left feeling whole.

Step 5.  Stay in the game and expect to win. Know that the Universe is on your side and life embraces and supports evolution and you are playing a critical role in your own personal evolution.

Why should you expect to spend at least 2 years in this redesign process? 

Society has programmed us to expect glorified results instantly but upon closer examination, it becomes obvious that the value of a microwave life is commensurate with the investment of time, energy, and resources.  The value of life is not just measured by outcomes but also by the process that produces those outcomes.  In other words, the joy of living…is living. In 2 to 5 years you will discover aspects of yourself that reveal your true brilliance.  You will shed many false perceptions that have restricted and confined you. The rigorous work you will do will be accompanied by a manifold of rewards; expected and unexpected.

Three Small Words- One Huge Relief
“I forgive you.” These three words can be the most freeing words spoken. They offer immediate release, immediate acceptance and immediate love and compassion.These words need not even be spoken aloud. They can be a silent statement – a thought, almost a prayer. When we forgive someone for a wrong they have committed, we not only free the other person of guilt, responsibility and perhaps pain – more importantly, we free ourselves.Of course, to forgive someone means we have decided that they wronged us, hurt us or interfered with our wishes. It also means that we judged them to be wrong and hold them responsible for some offense. This in itself may not be fair or right – because, who are we to judge another? Who are we to impose guilt and remorse? Who are we to impede the freedom of another by holding them accountable? It is the judgment itself that inhibits. It is the judgment itself that stifles.So, how do we not judge another?

How to Make Your Pick Up Techniques Automatic

What this means is their unsure of their actions during a conversation and don't know what they should do at the end. Primarily they don't know if they should ask for a date or number when they're conversing with a girl.My response is this...Always go for it!Whenever you’re talking to a woman, you should be afraid to take a risk and try to make things romantic. In fact, you should automatically go for it whenever you're "getting vibes" from a woman.If you train yourself to do this every time you're in a conversation, you'll reduce nervousness and increase your success with women.In addition, you have to make your response automatic in every situation. By embracing an 'automatic response' with women, you must automatically:• Approach attractive woman you spot• Engage interestinrequired.

Faith: Seeing in 3-D
My son borrowed a book from the library called Eye-Illusions. In the olden days, artists drew 3-D pictures by hand. It took them a long time to create even one simple image. Maybe you remember the pictures and the little glasses that would allow the pictures to “pop” out? Thanks to technology, artists now use computer graphics to create ever more complex and beautiful 3-D art. Eye-Illusions contains what’s called “stereograms”--flat, two-dimensional pictures that when viewed in the right way appear to have three dimensions.The book tells you: “Find a quiet place with bright lighting, and make sure the picture you look at is evenly lit. Then sit up straight, take a deep breath, and relax. This is very important. The more relaxed you are, the easier it will be to find the images, and the more fun you will have. Also be patient, especially in the beginning. It may take several minutes before you can see the picture in three dimensions. So take it easy and don’t give up.”The boopt">Why should you expect to spend at least 2 years in this redesign process?

Of course, it could happen in less time because the time it actually takes is totally dependant on how much you resist change and how willing you are leave the your herded existence behind.  You see, a great life is available to the masses but the masses will not forsake their average existence to claim their inheritance. To create an extraordinary life requires that we learn from our mistakes and our victories and continuously reexamine our personal paradigms adjusting them as needed.  When you are making the second half the best half, you will find that you will be in a constant state of personal evolution.  As you move toward your life’s purpose your envisioned life will become the master plan that will guide your life’s choices if it has been carefully designed to holistically reflect your individual uniqueness, which is woven into the expression of your values, contributions, and priorities.
