Jordans 2010 Conscious Life Design through Empower

Commit to your own truth:
This is literally overpowering your own resistance to change. It may work in the short term, but is an energy-consuming and ineffective long-term strategy. With willpower, you push through obstacles set up by your operating system. This is commonly seen in dieting strategies. When the initial surge of the commitment wears off, there is a tendency to bargain with oneself, and to revise,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], postpone, or abandon the vision. The real problem with willpower, aside from the potential for giving up and burn-out,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], is that the underlying beliefs don't change at all.
Do you increase your efforts toward your vision by focusing on what you don't want to have happen? This often involves fear of punishment, embarrassment or loss. For example, if your goal is to organize your office, negative visioning might cause you to focus on potential embarrassment if others see it, rather than the positive effects on your work flow and energy.
1) where you are now, (your current reality), and
2) where you want to be, (your desired future).
Giving up the vision:
According to Robert Fritz, author of the books, "The Path of Least Resistance" (1989, Fawcett-Columbine), and "Creating" (1991, Fawcett-Columbine), most of us possess a dominant belief system that limits the fulfillment of our desires. This dominant belief system is made up of two parts. The first part is powerlessness: we believe we are unable to manifest what we really want. The second is unworthiness: we believe we do not deserve to have what we really want.
Do you just give up what you want? Do you ever rationalize why you can't or shouldn't have what you want? Do you find yourself questioning whether you really want your vision?
Here are some ways to empower yourself to resolve structural conflict by leveraging creative tension:
Commitment to authenticity -- your own truth -- relieves a source
Negative visioning:
Willpower:
What happens when you tell yourself, "I can create my life exactly the way I want it, in all dimensions--work, family,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], relationships, community and the larger world"? How does your inner voice respond? One way to discover this is to divide a sheet of paper down the middle. On one side, write what your pessimist has to say in response, and on the other, write what your optimist says. This exercise (especially your pessimist's voice!) will help surface the limiting beliefs that impede your path to creating the levels of satisfaction and prosperity you have the potential to enjoy.
1) How is this issue important to me?
2) What am I feeling about this issue?
3) What is my own contribution to this issue? What part do I play -- how do I keep it from getting resolved?
This gap between current reality and the future creates a force called "creative tension". This is an unstable state, which in all living systems requires resolution toward stability. Creative tension is best resolved by creating momentum toward your vision. Simultaneously, however, there is a dilemma operating, which Fritz calls "structural conflict". Deep-seated beliefs of powerlessness and unworthiness create another force to keep you rooted safely in your comfort zone--in current reality. Fritz says that the more you grow toward your vision, the stronger the pull back toward your comfort zone. This is a natural, protective response against the anxiety provoked by change, and the fear of your weaknesses being exposed. We all may experience the effects of limiting beliefs, but nobody wants to expose them to others. ! Unless you are aware of your unconscious "operating system", you may tend to use the following common coping strategies to resolve structural conflict:
Your vision of what you want in your life is made up of
Listen to the stories you tell yourself about "the way things are" for clues of limiting beliefs. Increase the awareness of your level of responsibility for your actions and choices. When you find yourself stewing in a dilemma ask
