Hi Craig,

John just emailed me this link after speaking with him on the phone. Honestly, this article is written for those of us who compete in bodybuiding cmopetitions. You’re hit the nail right on the head. And what’s even funnier, is that so many are to this day still closeted about their TRUE EMOTIONS. I personally see a sports psychologist and it’s worth more to me than any personal trainer and/or nutritionist out there. If our head space ‘aint right how can we expect our physique’s to be. Some food for thought!

As always, great read!

Kind Regards,

Hi Craig,

You have great stuff here, it is a real pleasure reading your stories. Your choice of words is excellent: inspiring and motivating. As I read, I recognize things from my past, people from my life, situations I've faced, resolutions that kept me going on... it's like we all live the same big old life, out of which we take our own choices.

One small comment: I found it difficult in the beginning to scroll down all the time, in order to read the posts. Yet, I understood the idea of having that introductory part on all pages... and after several scroll-downs, the habit was established and I was not bothered anymore (it seems that Pavlov's stuff is still functioning and humans are closer to animals than many of us think).

Best wishes,

Simonne

Damm You! Everytime I come here I am forced to consider my own feelings, thoughts, and actions.
I used to be delusional, ignorant and happy, now I find myself reassessing all aspects of my life.
Thank You.

Yes! How jaded do we feel lol..It’s invigorating and annoying
If our bulbs are only just switching on, does that mean you're running on Solar power, Craig?

One of my worst habits is the statement “I’ll be happy when …” – doesn’t matter what the “when” is, it basically states that I’m waiting for some external event or object to make me happy. But as you said, when the “when” happens (win Tattslotto, pay off my debts, lose some weight, whatever), I’m still exactly the same person in a slightly different circumstance.

Now when I hear that sentence start coming out of my mouth I’m going to just cut it off before it escapes. Because you know what? I’m happy now! I have a great life with a wonderful family. Sure, who wouldn’t like to win a packet a money or get a new car, but I refuse to put my happiness on hold any longer.

Craig, this is a good point you are making. I’ve come across people like you used to be. What I think is important is finding that switch where you notice that you are being driven from the outside instead of being internally driven. Maybe you can write about this in the future, of what triggered this switch for you.

This is what personal development and being happy is all about. It all originates from within. The first initial thought. And then its upto us to take action on what we want to be.

Another great article.
