Weird NLP - Silver Star Syndrome and Procrastination

Why are you STILL just sitting there? Or, does procrastination still rule your life, your wallet, and your social life?

Onward!

"How they trained you to procrastinate and be a real good couch potato back in school, and what to do about it NOW so you have a kick butt life, and enjoy real honest to goodness health, happiness, success, and FREEDOM!"

It all started way back in grade school, when you leaned how to be a good student. You learned that success and rewards were based on answering questions that the authority figure asked, while staying obdeient and in your seat.

Quick summary, see if this brings back memories.

“Give a short quick answer, after the teacher calls on you, after she asks the question, after you sit there for hours on end. Get the right answer, and here is your star. Thank you Johnny."

So you want to lose weight? Diet and exercise are the right answers.

Or you want to start a business? Taking just one hour a day to get things moving would help.

And for some reason, you KNOW the right answer, you can even say it outloud, but you can't get your butt off the couch.

We call that:

THE SILVER STAR SYNDROME!

A pattern was trained into you. Back in kiddy school, they called it being a grade a student. Today we call it procrastination, and it feels like you can never get things started.

So with this all in mind, lay off the self judgement juice.

REALIZE, there is ABSOLUTELY NOTHING wrong with you, a long long time ago, you just learned a pattern.

The Cure?

You just to learn how to walk away from the old pattern, one that is so deep and ancient, and deliberately build in a new one.

The Problem with THAT IS....

It's tough, really tough to do it on your own.

"Maybe that's why the most successful people I have met and modeled and mentored with, ALL have mentors, masterminds and coaches."

All of them do. No exceptions.

The question now is, do you?

It's time to generate a new behavior called ACTION, - NO MORE FREAKING EXCUSES…. Instead of hearing the same old same old excuse based “thoughts”, lets start working with real HUMAN mentors and form some masterminds.

Because, books, articles, videos are GREAT, but HUMANS HELP HUMANS.

Mentoring. Masterminds. No more mediocrity.

Nuff said,

Now do it!

Your friend,

Mr. Twenty Twenty

That guy who ACTUALLY did change his name to the number of perfect vision, because YOU living YOUR VISION matters.

The ball is in your court! Hit it!

Start a mastermind!

Get a mentor!

Make a difference!

Most NLP work so hard on making it hard and build it in. The silver star concepts are iwonderful and useful, I remember when @Mr2020 first released a series of recordings on this. Now these MindHackVideos are really a nice addition for those of us who enjoy mapping these concepts as well. I'm looking forward to see what else shows up here and on YouTube both... Thanks for the sharing!
