The challenge is on
Hi again.
Here's the surprise I promised you. Let's have some fun with
this challenge: I challenge you to
use the information we've been talking about since January to take on
a health-promoting project in your life. (We're calling this
the
EMAIL
CHALLENGE.
There's a
CONTEST,
too. More about that in a minute.)
Now let's be
clear. Basically, anything constructive you feel
strongly about will do for this
CHALLENGE. Because anything you feel strongly about
will affect your health.
I've seen it.
I've experienced it. You may have, too:
- People with
relationship problems they didn't solve who became careless and
accident-prone.
- People who
created relationship problems (including relationships with
employers) because they were dissatisfied with their personal lives
(leading to #1).
- Intelligent,
capable people who accepted welfare and/or disability income rather
than find ways to earn a living. (Of course, they had to stay
disabled to qualify.)
- People who
said "I'd rather be sick than..." learn to eat a healthier diet, quit
smoking, or take up an exercise program
- And the guilt
caused by numbers 1-4 above magnifies unbelievably whatever
other health quirks may have been lurking in the background.
- There's more,
but —
But let's get to the point. How could we use
this to make your life better?
The set-up.
- Today is
October 1st. Starting today, you'll take on a 3-month project
that will complete on December 31st. You'll manifest something
amazing!
- You'll choose
a project that intrigues and challenges you. Probably
something you've been putting off for a while. You'll identify
a specific result you want. (If you need ideas, check out our
Healthy Client Success
Factors.)
- You'll build
in support and accountability for yourself by registering your
intended result at a special email address I'll give you in a few
minutes.
- Over the next
several months, you and everyone else who participates in the
EMAIL
CHALLENGE
will receive a special series of emails from me offering
tips, suggestions, support, and encouragement in manifesting the
goal you chose. NOTE: This special email series will only
go to people who register for the
EMAIL
CHALLENGE. If you
participate, your special emails will arrive every 7-10 days through
the end of December.
- Everyone who
participates will have access to a special email address to send
questions, thoughts or comments. I'll answer questions personally as much as possible;
some questions may be featured in the special email series or this newsletter. I will be asking for your
feedback as we go along!
- NOW FOR
the contest: From the
EMAIL
CHALLENGE
entries, I'm going to select one participant to receive 6 one-hour telephone coaching calls
with me (free) over the three month period -- supporting you
directly to achieve the goal you've chosen. That person will
be the
CONTEST
WINNER.
