Life will work for me when I realize �?

I cannot break through until I have a breakdown !

Each of us must face a moment in our lives called “breakdown moment.�?

This is the time when you must stand toe to toe,

eyeball to eyeball, with the very thing you have

tried desperately to avoid.

withoutyou-anim3.gif (2445 bytes)      withoutyou-anim3.gif (2445 bytes)    withoutyou-anim3.gif (2445 bytes)     withoutyou-anim3.gif (2445 bytes)     withoutyou-anim3.gif (2445 bytes)   withoutyou-anim3.gif (2445 bytes)

In that moment, you will want to find

a way around, over,  under or out of

having to do what you are faced with doing.

You will do anything, say anything to avoid

having to go through what is facing you.

You will want to run and hide. You will get weak,

almost faint. You will believe you are going to be sick.  You won't be !

What you will be is on your way to greatness.

In the breakdown moment,

the very thing you have feared,  resisted,

denied will stand before you,

shaking its finger in your face

and sticking its tongue out at you.

It will show you things about yourself

that you refused to see or acknowledge.

It will tease you, taunt you, push you,

pull you to the verge of breaking down.

withoutyou-anim3.gif (2445 bytes)    withoutyou-anim3.gif (2445 bytes)    withoutyou-anim3.gif (2445 bytes)    withoutyou-anim3.gif (2445 bytes)    withoutyou-anim3.gif (2445 bytes)    withoutyou-anim3.gif (2445 bytes)

In fact, that is its purpose.

In the breakdown moment,

your defences break down.

Your fantasies shatter. Your excuses fail.

Your resistance erodes.

withoutyou-anim3.gif (2445 bytes)    withoutyou-anim3.gif (2445 bytes)    withoutyou-anim3.gif (2445 bytes)    withoutyou-anim3.gif (2445 bytes)    withoutyou-anim3.gif (2445 bytes)    withoutyou-anim3.gif (2445 bytes) 

In that moment,  when there is nothing

standing between you and the thing

you fear the most,

you will be forced to step into your greatness,

because that is what life is demanding of you.

Until today, you may not have realized

that you are totally able, perfectly prepared,

fully capable of doing the very thing

you have convinced yourself you could not do.

survivors-anim1.gif (5904 bytes)survivors-anim1.gif (5904 bytes)survivors-anim1.gif (5904 bytes) 

Just for today, be devoted to doing just one thing

that will help to convince you.
