For years I thought success meant accomplishment in
business nike air max
95 escape , making lots of money, and earning prestige and status.
And, if I did all of these things, I'd be rewarded by feeling great. I had a
beautiful wife, two healthy, wonderful kids. We even had the dog and the white
picket fence. All my life, I'd been taught that goals like these, when achieved,
guaranteed good feelings. So I believed, worked very hard, and here's what I
accomplished: -- A 5-million dollar company with 50 employees, -- Built my own
dream house, -- Plenty of money, -- New cars in driveway, -- Elected town
official, -- Flourishing retail business in my home town, -- Awards for public
service, -- Trophies for sports...and even more! There is one goal missing from
that list: -- Happiness Did all these achievements supply me with happiness,
with contentment? Many thought they would. I sure did, but was I wrong! For two
busy decades I pursued the above goals. I was all about attainment. I'd do just
about anything if I thought it would help me attain and thus, feel good.
Remember: I had no idea -- I was all about achievement -- while I was working so
hard to achieve. I was completely missing the real point. I was painting the car
and not checking the engine. The outside of the car, my life nike air max herren
sale , looked great: Shiny, clean, impressive to the world. I
thought maintaining that was the correct and proper goal. I didn't realize for
the vehicle to operate properly, there were complex inner workings to be looked
at, understood, and worked on. I had not lifted my own hood and looked inside at
the engine within me. I wasn't happy. After every milestone was passed, and
after that first flush of achievement faded, I noticed it was replaced by an
inexplicable feeling of emptiness. I was baffled as to why I wasn't happy. I
just didn't know what was missing. Being an achiever, I set out to fix this
situation. It was dawning on me that maybe I needed to lift the hood. So I read
every personal development book and watched andor took every program, seminar
and workshop I could find. Still, the reason for my lack of happiness wasn't
clear. A feeling of guilt haunted me or, I hounded myself for being ungrateful.
I said to myself: Look at what you've got! You should feel happy? You ungrateful
man! This thinking, this self-punishment, only added to my gloom. I spent the
next five years working on what was going on inside my engine. It's intricate:
Inside oneself. I checked old wiring, and found out I was not 'hard-wired' to
certain behaviors, after all. I examined my beliefs, old ideas and saw they
needed work, or even replacement. As I moved deeper into the elaborate mechanism
of that engine, of my Self, I began to see that I'd launched my life from the
wrong premise. When the pistol was fired and the man in the game of life yelled:
"Go!" I took off running, like most people, only seeing each goal as a hurdle to
be overcome. I also wanted to be out ahead of the pack and often I was. I didn't
see there was an entirely different race being run nike air max damen
billig , further away, not obvious and with few guideposts. Decades
back, I hadn't understood what my goal should have been. I hadn't known what I
really wanted. I just took off running. Few or no questions asked. The premise
I'd been unaware of wasn't what I thought I should want. It wasn't even more
accomplishments to bring me more recognition. It also wasn't what would generate
the most money -- rather, it was: What would make me happy? I'd never even
thought about that! I hadn't known such an idea could even be a goal. I'd
forgotten, or never understood that I had certain core values that were unique
to me. When I wasn't honoring those values I was out of tune with what truly
mattered to me, so I lived in conflict all the time. Inside I was being torn
apart! Now I suddenly saw the engine under the hood: my first breakthrough! That
led me to discover what was missing in my life. It was: I'd lost touch with who
I really was. I found out I had a soul and it was crying out: What am I here
for, what do I really want? I discovered I was a human being, not a human doing.
How do I want to be and to feel? I had no idea! This was the beginning for me. I
saw I needed to be in a very different race to really win in the game of life. I
also saw I need help to train for this other way of living life. I found out
about life coaching. I started to work with a coach and for the last 4 years
I've had incredible results. I was able to identify my core values; I was able
to look at the whole picture of myself not just the one-dimensional character
that I had produced, that had blindly run that other race. I saw many of my core
beliefs were based on old assumptions that I had never tested for truth. This
helped me identify what really matters most to me. I learned that I'm no longer
willing to live out of integrity with those core values. I had to learn how to
use my own inner guidance system. I learned: What feels good is in alignment
with my core values; and what does not is not. Sounds simple! Simple yes, but
not necessarily easy. I had a powerful struggle learning to override the beliefs
I held that blocked my way to real contentment. I also had to struggle to
believe that what I really wanted and desired, was possible. I did the hard
work. Today my life is filled with so much joy, fulfillment, freedom, balance,
calmness and connection. I am happy. Five years ago if you had asked me: "What's
lacking in your life?" I'd never even guessed that joy, fulfillment, freedom,
balance, calmness and connection were the things I was missing. That these were
what most mattered to me. Now when I move ahead toward a business or personal
goals I have clarity behind my actions. I understand my real purpose for taking
these actions. I am in alignment with what matters most to me. The difference
has been monumental. Q.
