Decision: The Mastery of Procrastination

This is a direct quote from a "lesson" that My good friend Michael Hall posted in our 30 Day Mental Cleanse forum :

Chapter 8 (Think And Grow Rich -- Napoleon Hill) - Decision: The Mastery of Procrastination (The Seventh Step Toward Riches)

Last week, Michael Dlouhy outed me as a green personality type, and I'll admit, I procrastinated a bit on admitting he was right. Then he said something to me, via email, that sent the message home, "Michael, being a green is a blessing, when you are coachable. The reason that people come to you for help is because you make sure to get all of the information." The moment I read that, I decided to accept myself as the green personality that I am.

That decision lifted a massive weight off of my mind and liberated me to have the best week I've had in my adult life. I haven't stopped smiling (other than MAYBE when I'm asleep) since.

Today, I listened to a song and heard it in a new way. I will quote it here, then share my inspiration from it:

"Titanium"
(feat. Sia)

"You shout it out,
But I can't hear a word you say
I'm talking loud, not saying much
I'm criticized but all your bullets ricochet
You shoot me down, but I get up

I'm bulletproof, nothing to lose
Fire away, fire away
Ricochet, you take your aim
Fire away, fire away
You shoot me down but I won't fall
I am titanium
You shoot me down but I won't fall
I am titanium"

It reminded me of when Michael says, "When you have truthful, accurate information, you become 10 foot tall and bulletproof."

Having the truthful, accurate information about my personality, and making the DECISION to accept myself, and LOVE myself for it, has made me bulletproof!

Now that I know myself, and what my needs are, I feel more empowered to follow the "platinum rule," a modification of the golden rule, which is, of course, to "treat others the way you want to be treated."

The "platinum rule" is to "treat others the way THEY want to be treated. Not the way YOU want to be treated."

As a green, I love getting all the information I NEED about a subject. But the other colors, don't NEED the amount of information that I would always drown them in. Now, I can tend to my own needs, and only share the information that other people need, the information they ASK for. So, I have DECIDED, only to share information with people, when I have their permission, when they ask for it, and only what they ask for.

As my teal mentor, Steve Porter, has pointed out, the 2 minute story is a great way to do that. I've also decided to be coachable, and follow my mentor's example.

In honour of Steve's request, I will also share that when I learned how to evaluate a 5 Pillar Company, I struggled in the realization that the company I was with was NOT a 5 Pillar Company. When I realized it, I couldn't physically bring myself to share "Success in 10 Steps" with people, because I knew that I lacked the integrity of the information I would be sharing. After procrastinating for a few weeks, I made the DECISION to join a 5 Pillar Company, and within the first month since joining, I've had over 10 ebook downloads.

It is with tears of joy and with a smile from my heart that I thank Michael Dlouhy for helping me to discover the truth about myself, and to both he and Linda for sharing their inspired Mentoring For Free system with us.

I love each and every one of my Mentoring For Free family members. I thank you all for sharing your brilliance with me, and allowing me the opportunity to share mine with each of you!
