Nowie Wowie!™

Those of you who know me, who have worked with me, who have bought my books and created Powerful Positive Change in your lives know that I’m not messing around when you show up to work with me.

You want to change? It will start NOW. Not later, not next week, not someday in the future. It will happen NOW. I call it the Nowie Wowie!™

For the past month, though, I’ve been up at O’Day Camp working with a group of namby-pamby whiners. I’ve locked them in cabins in the freezing cold and instead of breaking out and breaking free they sit there rocking back and forth whining and crying. We’ve done Shatter Your Limits™ exercises on the frozen river and they’ve complained the whole time that the ice is “slippery” and they’re “cold”. I pushed them into Kill It or Starve™ exercises and instead of eating meat they’re eating the frozen lilac bush and licking snow.

They want gradual. They want to play it safe. They are addicted to their whining and blaming others. They refuse to take responsibility for themselves.

People, planting a seed and watering it is not change, it’s growth. Gradual change is either growth or erosion; it’s not true powerful, change. True change is a rockslide, fire, a tornado -- immediate need to reconcile yourself with a bright new life.

Drop the whining like a hot rock, people, and get out there and make some powerful, positive change.
