Would you like to quit, but are afraid you'll attract more of same? Often people write to me with questions like: I want out of my present job so badly. How can I speed things up so I can quit? The best way to shorten time spent in a negative situation is to focus on all positives you can. If you can find something to appreciate--even if its appreciating a regular paycheck which DOES cover some of your essentials--you will begin to feel better. As you feel better, you'll find it easier to notice another thing you appreciate about your job. What if you can’t find a single positive aspect of your present job? If you don't change way you feel about your current job, you will simply attract another miserable job. "Sometimes it's easier to act your self into a new way of thinking, than it is to think your self into a new way of acting." -Jo Berry, author Years ago, in Los Angeles, California, I heard Jo Berry speak about how to get rid of a bad habit. Jo asked her audience, "How long have you thought about giving up this habit? Has it done any good to just think about it?"

There are 2 main reasons why you don't get something in life. 1. You don't know what you want. 2. You don't know why you want it.Most people know what they want. They just don't have big enough reasons why they want it. Knowing why you want something, why you really want something is one of biggest keys to your success in everything. The bigger WHY reasons, easier "how to" becomes. The "why" or reason you are doing something has to be stronger than non-supportive beliefs, reasons, and excuses you have to not do something. Many people focus on trying to get rid of what is getting in their way. And if you create big enough reasons why, that stuff doesn't get in your way anymore. Most people who start to make a change or improvement in their life never follow through because they do not understand power of "WHY." So let us get those WHY reasons right now. Why must you have something? Why is it absolutely imperative that you have it? What is reason that is going to have you leaping out of bed in morning, set your spirit ablaze, give you inspiration to follow through and have what you want and make it impossible for you to lay around and do nothing. The most incredible thing you can do for yourself is have a big enough reason why that will totally light up your life and will remind you of that reason every single day. Action step #1: Figure out what you want. Remember, you can want more than one thing, and you can change what you want. Every one knows what they want, it is just some people are afraid. What if I don't' really want that, what if I cannot get it, what if I want something else. Don't worry about all that. Go for what you REALLY want now, and if you want something else later, you can change your mind.
