Make No Excuse For Yourself
By: Thea Westra
Take on board any, single, one of the following statements that I’ve extracted from Chapter 2 in "Advanced Formula for Total Success" by Dr. Robert Anthony and "live in" the conscious awareness and belief of that statement, then be assured that…yourselves, your lives, your actions and the results that you produce will be forever transformed.
So here they are:
"We need to be aware that "¦ no amount of willpower, effort, determination or commitment will cause us to be any other way "¦ we’re always going to act the way we see ourselves" [p.17]
"It’s not an ego trip to affirm your own perfection. It’s an ego trip not to affirm your own perfection" [p.19]
"Even though you may have built your personality through imitation, you’re not a fraud. No one else has ever put together the exact same combination that you have" [p.20]
"You must be able to stand before the entire world and make no excuse for yourself" [p.21]
"Make a decision to give up all resentment right now" [p.23]
"If you had a friend who treated you like you treat yourself, or talked to you the way that you talk to yourself, and broke commitments to you the way that you break commitments to yourself, do you think you’d keep him as a friend?" [p.25]
“You don’t have to have permission from others to change your life" [p.26]
"To experience your own magnificence requires that you separate ‘what you have’ and ‘what you do’ from ‘who you are’" [p.27]
"Happiness exists when the mind is not removed from itself, when it remains in the present time zone, and when it declines to contrast itself with other times or conditions" [p.29]
"You are spiritually whole, complete and perfect, and your success in life will be in direct proportion to your ability to accept this truth about yourself" [p.29]
Take particular note of:
"You must be able to stand before the entire world and make no excuse for yourself.” This one takes some vigilance and practice. I imagine that it always will.
Even that is simply just another belief. We can replace that in a moment, right?
