Great post David,

As a man of your experience in personal development, I’d be very curious to know how you would go about *curing* someone who faces this problem on a consistent basis.

Personally, I faced this problem myself for much of my adolescence. I would set myself up for action, develop a comprehensive plan, begin to work it, and then my enthusiasm would fade and I would succumb to quitting as soon as another area of my life threw me even the slightest curve ball.

While everyone is different, I personally only transcended this limiting mindset once I realized that I had to align both my conscious and my subconscious minds. As soon as I began taking consistent steps to do this, I quickly had no trouble with inner resistance. It was like I unlocked a door. Do you advocate anything in this regard with your coaching sessions?

I suppose even something as simple as affirmations are a way to tap into the subconscious mind, as it responds eventually to consistent repetition.

Keep up the great work on the blog,

Best of luck in all your endeavors,

I definitely regret the choices that I didn’t take (inaction). I don’t regret the failures in my life so much as regret not taking more risks and following my heart. Then in December 2003, I decided I wasn’t going to live a life always wondering “what if” anymore. That was when I applied for and eventually got a job working on a tropical island in the Pacific Ocean. That job brought me to the other side of the world where I met some amazing friends, got to do things I never had a chance to do before, and met my wife. Had I stuck with my status quo mentality of the past, none of those things would have ever happened.
