Building the Muscle of Self-improvement

Personally, I find it a great tragedy that only 10 – 20% of people who join personal growth seminars around the globe actually get the results they were after. This is why I am going to dedicate some web space, time and effort into giving you sound guidance on how to be one of those who gets more out of life.

We cannot treat self-improvement in the same way as retail therapy... The joy of instant gratification is not the way to long-term confidence, enhanced self-image and greater fulfillment.
To become confident, we need to take a different route. Let’s take, as an analogy, the example of a weight lifter. The most successful weight lifters have muscles upon muscles and are just huge! The weights they lift are also huge and the bar bends when they lift it. So, if I were to find some weedy person who has decided their GOAL is to be a successful world champion weight lifter - just as the present world champions must have been at some point - then could they become a success in their chosen sport if they ONLY tried to lift the immense weights the present champions throw above their heads? They, in fact, would NOT be able to shift the bar and could NEVER build the muscle in order to lift it!! What they would have to do is start by lifting small weights to begin the process of building the muscle. In this way their confidence builds also.
