Backing
Into What You Want
Years
ago I was into horses, and during one period when I was temporarily
horseless, a friend invited me to go trail riding with her. I eagerly
jumped at the chance and was at her barn within minutes. The horses
were out in pasture so we grabbed halters with which to catch them.
Having been around horses for a while, I learned that it's much
easier to catch horses if you have a "horse magnet". So
I packed both of my jacket pockets full of grain and went with my
friend out to the pasture to catch our horses.
I
walked up to the horse I was to ride (I was appointed the one most
difficult to catch, of course) with sweet grain in my outstretched
hand. The horse stretched his neck out as far as he could and lapped
up the grain.
"This
is going to be easy," I thought.
As
I moved to his side to throw the halter rope around his neck he
swiftly swung around, presenting me with a panoramic view of his
rump.
"Hmmm.
Guess I better be a little quicker," I thought. I tried again
with the same result. There I was looking at the wrong end of the
horse once more. We did this dance a couple of more times with the
same result.
Then
inspiration strucketh me.
I
turned around with my back to him and began walking backwards in
his direction. The horse just stood there. You see, horse logic
says that when a person's feet are moving, that person is going
in the same direction that their nose is pointed. Since my nose
was pointed away from him, he figured I must be moving away from
him. He was one surprised horse when I got next to him, spun around,
and threw the halter rope around his neck! I could almost hear him
thinking, "Now, how the heck did she do that?"
Humans
are a lot like that horse. Often we have to approach those things
we want in life backwards in order to grab them.
You
see, most of us have been programmed to easily identify what we
don't want. When we were children and told our parents that we wanted
something, most typically we were told that no, we didn't want it
because it wasn't good for us or some other reason that made sense
to the adults.
Now
that you're an adult you have a lifelong habit of identifying what
you don't want. You identify more easily with what you don't
want than what you do want. Ask anyone what they truly want
in life, and most likely you'll find they hesitate, stumble, falter,
and aren't able to easily answer that question. However, just ask
them what they don't want and they turn into motor mouths!
So,
in order to find out what you truly want, you may just have to back
into it by first defining what you don't want. It's easy to do.
Simply make a list of everything you don't want. Then just turn
each item into its opposite and you'll have backed into identifying
exactly what you do want.
Love,
Kathy
ps.
If you don't want to do work that someone else thinks you "should"
be doing, but don't know what you want, here's help. There's a worksheet
for this exercise in Chapter 3, Discovering Your Life Purpose, in
my book. It's called The Job From Hell and is great fun! It's also
on the website here.
The
First DVD of the TV Series Is Now Available!
Finally,
after editing and rewriting the credits to include more people and
all kinds of other stuff I didn't know about, the first DVD of
my TV series based on An Inner Journey: Living Your Life Purpose
is available.
This
first DVD is Chapter 1: Life Values and is a nice enhancement to
the book. You'll get additional information that isn't covered
in the book, not to mention enjoying some really cool props
and visuals. I have a very limited amount right now, so it's first
come, first serve.
The
price is $9.95 plus $4.95 shipping
Feel
Good Bonus: 20% of the price goes to PTTV to support
them as they continue to offer swell programs like this to their
viewing audience.
Order
it using PayPal here.
Or call me at 253.853.4033. I accept VISA and Mastercard, as well
as cash, checks, money orders, real estate, and Bugatti
Veyrons (any color).
The
next two segments are already "in the can", as they say
in the biz. The DVDs will be available in a couple of weeks, if
everything goes as scheduled.
- Segment
#2 - Personal Boundaries. Watch my Invisible Barriers
of Protection (my personal boundaries) protect me from the undesirable
behavior of the cameraman! Learn how to get your own IBPs!
- Segment
#3 - Discovering Your Life Purpose. Go on a hunt for
the treasure of your life with an Official Treasure Map as you
