Are negative, self-destructive behaviors holding you back?

If so, then the bad news is that your own negative behavior is standing in the way of your best possibilities. The good news is that you can change it.

Consider this. What if there was someone, sincerely acting in your best interest, who had a remote control device that guided all your actions? Similar to the remote control for a television, the device could switch between different “channels” of activity, and increase or decrease the “volume” of energy you put forth.

Just imagine how effective you could be if, at just the right time, the button was pushed for “focused, disciplined work” or “creative problem solving” or “aerobic exercise” or “compassion” or “gratitude.” If someone who really knew what they were doing could control your actions, there would be no limit to what you could achieve.

In fact, there is someone who can do that. That someone is you. And the guidance you give to every single one of your thoughts and your actions is much more powerful and compelling than any “remote control” could ever be. Your control over your own life is so much a part of you that you probably don’t even think about it. Yet it is there. You are under your complete control, and with that you can do countless great things.

Make the choice to take control. You already know where your negative behavior is leading. Choose to go somewhere much, much better. Choose to fulfill your greatest possibilities rather than just filling time with the same old self-defeating behavior.
