Get the edge

Thursday, July 27th, 2006

Finished the ‘Get The Edge’ program by Anthony Robbins.

It’s a good solid (summary) program for personal change.

Most of GTE doesn’t introduce anything new … it highlights the core stuff from Personal Power II.

PP2 is the foundational program (more meat) … and GTE summarizes and brings it to the next level.

GTE covers …

  • Your Hour of Power
  • Getting Results
  • Power of Relationships
  • Pure Energy (Health & Fitness)
  • Power of Emotions (some new stuff here)
  • Financial Freedom
  • Purpose of Life

It also comes with the first 7 days from PP2 as a sampler.

GTE is more of TR motivating / pushing you to step up and follow through … which is always a good thing.

In all … I found the program to be very effective reminder to raise the bar and follow through … TR is a great motivator.

The next TR programs that I will be doing are Mastering Influence and then Time of Your Life.

I’ll keep you posted on how effective they are.

A new perspective

Saturday, July 22nd, 2006

It’s taken me almost 3 months to realize how much the patterns of negativity were engrained within me.

I’ve recently realized how much I’ve been tainted by the negative mindset of corporate life.

Perhaps it was the focus of my job as a manager to find problems?

Perhaps it was the influences of the relationships within my life?

Whatever the reason … It’s like a filter that was placed over my eyes that only allowed what was wrong within the world (and other people) through.

Now … don’t get me wrong … I view myself as a fairly positive person and it’s not as if I saw everything as negative.

However … this week I feel as if I’ve become unstuck.

Instead of focusing on what is wrong … I’m now finding myself focusing on what is right within the world!

It’s like I’m now seeing the beauty within everyone and everything.

I find that I’m able to appreciate (is grateful the right word?) the little (and big) things within my life.

By starting each day from this perspective … I am now able to begin from a place of strength.

I’ve already seen benefits of this by being able to see the positive strengths within the personal and professional lives of my Clients.

I’m excited and curious to see what other insights are ahead … to continue to expand my awareness as I move forward on the journey to establish my place within the world.

New CD program

Friday, June 30th, 2006

I started a new CD program today.

It’s the Anthony Robbins “Get the Edge” CD program.

I’m always impressed by the quality of Tony’s programs.

I’ve committed to complete the program in the next two weeks.

I did the “My Power Hour” program this morning … it’s basically a walking meditation program to get you focused for the day.

Even though I used the power hour … my day went south (sour) for some reason today … maybe too focused?

I believe I forgot to bring in the foolish (playfulness) part in.

I’ll make some adjustments and let you know how it goes.
