Mental disarray

Tuesday, January 30th, 2007

Yeah that’s the state I’m currently in and perhaps a little schizo. While I’m making a little progress in some areas, I haven’t spent the appropriate amount of time dreaming, creating goals, and deciphering plans of action. I’ll listen to a paraliminal on this or that and wonder why I don’t have amazing results in any one area.

I’ve been focusing so much on action, that I’m spinning my wheels and heading nowhere. I need to take the time to really envision want and get excited about it. I’m slipping in several areas already and want to abandon some of my goals. Whoa - and so early too! It may be time for an early intervention to really ground myself and get on track. I plan on spending some time tomorrow reworking my goals and then posting my plans tomorrow.

Potentially potent

Lifehack.org has an interesting new post on boosting your potential. The article suggests that in order to really experience one’s potential, one should say yes more often. This makes a lot of practical sense. How many times do you capture yourself saying no to an invite or request? I find myself often resisting new experiences, partially out of laziness and partially out the fear of being uncomfortable.

This blog’s underlying concept is that human potential is limitless!!! If this is true and I’m trying to boost my own potential, one of the best ways is to challenge myself with new experiences. This weekend was a nice weekend, but not a productive one. I’ve been in a lull all day long, feeling tired and motivated, and a tad depressed. Instead of succumbing to this sad state, I will challenge myself. I will clean house as quickly as possible for an entire hour! That will get my home in better shape and it will get me off my bum.

In the beginning…………..

This blog is about my personal journey on the road of never ending self improvement in the areas of spirituality, health, fitness, intelligence, emotions, finances, and relationships. I picked the name metamorphing, because well, metamorphosis was taken and my word conveys the same essence. For me, metamorphing is the transformational process I will be participating in. Much like the process of a caterpillar transforming into a butterfly, I would like my own transformation to be compelling and dramatic.

I have always been convinced that human potential is limitless, despite this belief I have never successfully applied it to myself. I have had some personal successes in my life but have consistently combated my own sabotage and have been in a slump for awhile.

As I set out on this journey, I realize that it is important to have an end in mind, a clear vision of what I would like my future to hold. At the same time I feel limited by my past failures. I fear setting the big lofty goals, because what if I don’t succeed? So step 1 in this whole process is rebooting my brain and reprogramming myself with new ideas, beliefs, and behaviors.
