"Born To Win...
But Programmed To Fail"
- Part 3 of 3 -
The Good News Is…You Are Now,
And Have Always Been, "The Programmer!"
The wonderful, liberating truth is that no program within you can be created, implanted, sustained, or deleted without your personal consent—no matter how long ago (or how unconsciously) your consent may originally have been given.
YOU are always the programmer.
It is true that external influences (parents, teachers, peers) have played a powerful role in steering you toward or away from certain beliefs. But are those outside influences all-powerful? Definitely not!
For example, if I told you to jump off a tall building, would you do it? I think not.
If your parents had told you to, would you have done it? I think not. What if your parents had told you to eat poison or broken glass? Would you have done it? No way. However, beliefs and suggestions that were not so "obviously" destructive could and did make it past your childhood radar. And they still live in you today!
So what's the solution? How do we fix the mess we're in?
Well, let me ask you a question: Have ever argued or disagreed with your parents? Your professors? You boss? Of course! Was that a good thing? Maybe. But was it a good capability to have? Absolutely! You were not put here to live your entire life operating on "OPP" (other people's programming).
Next question: Why did you argue? What was the real point? You argued because you believed that you had a right—even an obligation—to do what you considered to be in your best interest.
And you know what? You can still do that today—right now! You can still argue with and replace any belief or program that doesn't serve you and make you happier and/or healthier.
Yes, your old programs are now habits. But that's all they are.
They are NOT life sentences!
God gave you great power to choose the course of your life. You even get to choose between Heaven and hell! If you are given a choice that big, don't you think the smaller choices are certainly within your power?
Never Forget: YOU Are Still The Programmer!
OK, now having said all that, I want you to forget it. All of it. Why? Because I have a "cheat" for you—a "Cliff Notes" kind of shortcut to success!
What if you didn't even have to change your old beliefs? What if you could leave every one of those old, self-destructive beliefs intact—and just add a few new ones?
Do you think that might take some of the stress and struggle out of winning at weight loss, fat loss, fitness, or whatever healthy goals you have? You'd better believe it would! In fact, it would end the inner struggle completely.
No struggle, no battle. No battle, no losers. If you can't lose...well, how can you lose?
We were not put here to struggle! It isn't "noble"—and it isn't necessary. If we will just start doing things God's way, we'll find the stress and struggle of life starting to evaporate like the morning dew.
Remember, it is The Father's good pleasure to give you the Kingdom! Just do what He says!
This Is The Ultimate Secret Key To Success!
But you can never afford to forget that your childhood was spent in a state of almost complete unconsciousness. That's just the price of growing up on Planet Earth. So we first need to understand—to admit—that we're just as programmed as the computer on our desk.
Do you have a problem understanding and/or admitting that? There's nothing "unspiritual" about it. It's the plain truth—and nothing has more spiritual power than the truth! It's denial that takes us away from God.
OK, do you know anything at all about computer programs? Have you ever heard of a "subroutine?" A computer subroutine is a tiny little program that is "tacked on" to a larger program to perform some specific function when called upon to do so.
And that's the other key to success. A subroutine doesn't run all the time, only when needed. On a computer, it might have the job of totaling a row of figures or sending out a report as needed. But in your programming, the new subroutine will be created do something that's very useful to YOU.
Remember, you're going to create only one new subroutine. Its purpose will be to serve as a "detour," a new behavioral path, at exactly the time you need it—when you would otherwise be doing your compensatory eating, blowing your diet, bingeing, or doing whatever other habitual behavior you know is messing you up.
Basically, what you'll do is to create a healthy new behavior option AND make sure you actually use it when you need it. This is what I teach my coaching clients to do, and this is what you can learn to do.
While we don't have room to go into a huge amount of detail about the process, the first step is to become very conscious about is your current "bad behavior" program. In other words, what are you thinking and saying at the precise moment you start doing what you know doesn't work? What is your internal dialogue, your inner experience?
This is your point of power—and here's how to use it:
To stop losing and start winning, you will only need to do two things. First, you will design an alternative replacement behavior that you will activate whenever you see or feel yourself "slipping" into your habitual unhealthy actions.
Second, you will use your own awareness of your slipping to AUTOMATICALLY activate your new, healthy behavioral subroutine.
That's really all there is to it!
No Stress, No Struggle, Nothing Complicated About It!
Will you "get it right" on the first try. No, Grasshopper. But then, you didn't get your "bad" behavior solidified on the first try, either—did you?
You WILL succeed, but you need to not be in a hurry. What you DO need are practice, patience, and persistence—the "three Ps" of success.
I know from my years as a coach that you CAN do it. WILL you do it? That's totally up to you. But if I can help in any way, I sincerely hope you'll let me know.
