Are you Waking up Every Morning and Creating Results in Your Life… Or Are You Making Excuses as You Watch Life Pass You By?

Take Charge of your Life!


Learn How You Can Take Charge Of Your Life Today!

How many times have you decided to lose weight or start to exercise and then start making up excuses as to why you haven't done it? It may sound like this; "I was going to workout, but I didn't have time." "I was going to exercise, but I was too tired to get out of bed"…

"Stuff" does happen in this world. Your resulting behaviour is entirely your choice.

Imagine that you are at cause for everything that happens to you and realize that you control everything that happens in your life.

For example, if time is your excuse for not creating results, think of this. Everyone has 24 hours in a day. There are plenty of successful people with great family lives, healthy bodies, and lots of money. For example, Donald Trump has 24 hours in his day, and he gets results that most of us wouldn't even dream about.

How do they do it? They take responsibility for their actions! Are you using your time the most productively so that you can create the results you want in your life?

I am a health and wellness coach and I work with hundreds of people helping to get them to live their life at cause. For many people this concept is not easy to appreciate and grasp. I also recognize that this may be pushing against some of your boundaries. If it is, great!

Get excited because you are about to make a big change. When you do, your life will never be the same again.

Once you start living at cause and taking ownership of EVERYTHING that happens in your life, you have the ability to control and change everything in your life. If you are pointing the finger at anyone but yourself (being at effect), you have reasons and excuses as to why things aren't happening for you.

"Whenever you point your finger, there are always three pointing back" – Chris Howard

It may sound like this... "I would have been successful if my partner hadn't done that." or "I would have a great relationship if my wife/husband would just..."

To be at cause for your life, you are empowered to produce results. When you choose to believe that, you can create everything in your life.

When you take out reasons and excuses, all you have left is results.

You then choose to create results. How would it feel for you to know that you are in control of ALL of your outcomes?

Let's push a bit further and talk about dis-ease. It could be anything from a headache or backache all the way to diabetes or cancer. Do you look at a situation and say "it's not my fault, I had no control over this". Or do ask "how did I cause this even at the most unconscious of levels?" Do you look to find why you brought this into your life?

Personally, whenever something bad happens to me, for instance getting sick, I ask myself "why did this happen? What did I do to bring this into my life? What am I supposed to learn from this situation? What is my body telling me?"

When you get sick, it's your body's way of telling you that you are not listening to it. It has probably been giving you signs for a while and finally it has to shout at you to listen. For some of us who overwork, it may be that the body and mind just needs a rest, so it will get sick because that is the only way to get you to stay at home and rest. Are you starting to get this?

I just got off the phone with a client who has breast cancer. When I asked her why she brought it into her life, she firmly answered by saying "It was to make the choice to live." She had been debating whether or not she wanted to be here anymore after the death of her father a few years ago. She is now committed to living and is making the most of her life, even with cancer.

This learning is a massive accomplishment and step for her. She has to go through a huge test of strength to prove to herself that she is truly committed to living her life full out. She is excited to do it and is embracing the whole journey.

When you point outside yourself and place the blame elsewhere, you lose the power! Start today to empower yourself to take charge in your life! If a woman with cancer can do it… Can you?

Can I prove that this is true? No. That being said, this is just a belief that I hold to be true. The same as the sun coming up in the morning, I believe that I am at cause for everything that happens in my life. Because I believe it to be true, it is true.

So, from now on, you can choose to believe that at some level you bring everything into your life for a reason, and live an empowered life. OR you can choose to point the finger elsewhere and never own up to anything and give all your power away. How do you want to live your life?

The choice is up to you.

I once heard a quote from President Teddy Roosevelt that states "I was never a very brave man so I just acted as if I was until I became one."

The same thing holds true here. If you don't know how to do this, just act as if you do. Act as if you are at cause for everything in your life and see what happens. If you truly embrace acting as if, it will eventually become unconscious and you will just be that way. Your mind doesn't know the difference between acting and reality! So, have fun acting.

Start to listen to your language, really listen. See what side of the equation you are on. Be honest with yourself. If you are on the effect side, start looking at how you can move yourself over to the cause side and realize that you are in charge of all of your results. Then go and create the results that you want!
