Hey you,

This will be a short letter today.  I'm exhausted from a fun weekend of parties, playing music, eating, drinking, and reading.

That reading wore me out the most, I think.  Why?

Because I was reading a bunch of self-help books written by some pretty awesome people. And they wore me out!

I get a lot of inspiration and new perspectives reading books like that.  But in the end, there I am.  Sitting on the couch in a pile of books in a pair of sweatpants that should have been washed by now.  The empty bag of chips inflicts a certain amount of guilt that can only be washed away by turning on another History Channel rerun.  By the way, how in the world did some of that crap make it to the "History Channel"?

Anyway, there I was.  It's what the early stages of "Self Help Hell" feels like.  Some people call it "Shelf Help Hell".  Too many books.  Too many quotes.  Too many "shoulda, coulda, oughta's".

In other words, too much talk and too little ACTION!

So, I decided to write this very personal letter to you.  Today, this is MY action to do something different.  Something helpful.  Something from a place of love and respect for you.

 

Am I "Good Enough" to Take Action Yet?

Guess what every author I read had to say about why people get stuck in their life?

Whether they were writing for a woman or for a man, they all point to our common fear of wondering if we are "good enough".

We all know the "Am I good enough?" questions of childhood.  Am I smart enough, strong enough, pretty enough, tough enough?, etc.

But as adults, the biggest reason we get caught in the limbo of self-doubt and fear are the questions, "Am I good enough to deserve better?  Do I deserve to ask for more?  Do I deserve to be happy?"

Those questions can paralyze you from choosing more positive and productive thoughts.

Those doubts can seal your lips shut from saying exactly what you want to say and asking for what you want.

Those fears will prevent you from taking the actions that most represent who you are and what you believe in.

I'm a here to tell you now that you are most definitely good enough.  You deserve what you want and you deserve to be happy.

 

Now, About That Relationship Thing You're In

Are you ready to start taking some action on your relationship issues?

Are you ready to turn your self-help doctorate into something of real value?

Are you ready to admit that it is absolutely IMPOSSIBLE to achieve happiness in your relationship until you have discovered happiness inside of yourself first?

Good.  That's further proof you are good enough.

You're of person of truth, commitment, and action.

And THIS person will always be good enough because you are learning how to create happiness in yourself and then for those you care for.

This person is the ONLY one who has the ability to help heal and grow your relationship into the one you deserve.

 

What's the Fastest and Most Effective Way to Get There?

If you answered "yes" to the 3 questions above, you've got what it takes.  You don't need therapy.

What you DO need is to surround yourself with people who "get it".  You need to find people who are on the same journey and speak the same language.

All you need is more consistent inspiration and ACCOUNTABILITY to keep the new commitments you are making to yourself.  You need someone unafraid to call you out on your B.S. when you get lazy.

Unashamedly seek out these people in your life and move away from those who only serve to drain you of your confidence in your mission.

You want to get off the couch and take some action?

Then call someone - anyone you trust to have this conversation.

If you choose to call me, prepare to settle in for a while.  I don't do 20-minute trial calls.

I will dig deep with you and find out exactly what you want most and where you are going.

I won't try to be your friend and agree with everything you say.  But you will have one of the most powerful, trusting, and intensely personal conversations you've ever had.

That's a really good start at taking some action, don't you think?

To Better Life and Love,

Steve
