Dean Graziosi Weekly Wisdom #332 - Stop Resisting!

Dean, you just described my life. I am 73 years old and have used every excuse in the book to resist, even blaming it on someone else. Oh, I have accomplished some things in my life. Some people even consider them amazing. But, I have not accomplished the one thing that is most important to me, and that is to creat a financial legacy that would take care of my family.
Thank you so much for sharing this with me this morning. I made a decision this morning that I will not let resistance (that old villain) stop me. I was just too comfortable leaving the villain in charge of this. My biggest villain right now is that I'm too old. Thanks to you, this morning I recognize this.

Dean,
Thanks for the WW we all have the problem with our inner self that if we don't feed the positive side the negative or failure side creeps in and takes over.
To a great 2015

Hello Dean,
As usual you came up with yet another subject that affects me in a negative way, as I'm sure it does a lot of people out there.
I've been coming to this site for years and your WW's have kept me in the game to the point where I have relentlessly denied myself to quit. Although I have tried many different things to make money, (and quit all of them) real estate and you are still the only things I truly believe will help me and my family in the long run.
So thank you for all your inspiration and for coming up with so many ways to help me in my daily struggle to believe I can do it, for motivating me not to give up, and now, for finding a way to fight through procrastination.
As always, may God continue to bless you and your family.
From my heart, thank you.
Angel.

Thanks for the inspiration about embracing resistance and taking it head on. Some of my goals are taking a little longer and I fight some steps along the way but I keep moving forward and know that I will get there in the near future. I appreciate these WW as they always keep me focused and inspired to keep pushing!

I know you'll nail it in Australia, have great trip!

Make it a great week!
Thom

This was another great one Dean.

I catch myself dealing with resistance all the time but I seem to work my way over it. The War Of Art is on my books to read list and I will be ordering it really soon. I heard the book is really great. Thanks for the reminder on how to deal with resistance Dean.

That is something I need to work on, Thanks Coach!

How powerful Dean.
We all have that tendancy to do those little things that keep us busy all while not realizing that we are keeping ourselves from tacling the tasks that will propel us to the next level that we so say we will acheive. We need focus. We need bite and tenacity that will allow us to let go of that resistance. Once we have crossed that barrier, we will no longer have that subconcious tennancy to do those things that are actually destrying our will to continue.

You are right. This WW is one of the most important message if not the most important in 2015.

Thanks for sharing!
Dan

P.S. Make your mark Down Under. Safe travels!
I won't see you in Toronto but look forward to the Edge once again.

This is something Im sure we all deal with at some level and at different times of our lives! That book sounds like a great read! Im going to add it to my list immediately!

Overcoming resistance and taking action builds character and your confidence goes to a higher level.

I am definitely going to read The War of Art!

See you at the EDGE.

Thanks,
Michael

Hey Dean, another great insight.. there's thinking and there's doing and there not the same...I waste time staying busy and thinking but you have to get to the physical activities which you think are not going to be any fun, but they are the only fun...~ Real life is lived in the Doing of things not the Thinking about things...SeattleDan Edge 2015 ~ Your doing Great things Dean..

Good morning,
Today I listened to your weekly wisdom on resistance and new that you were speaking directly to me. Lately I have been talking a good game, but not following through with what needs to be accomplished.
I am putting into action your timely suggestions because they are truly needed to increase my income, find great housing, complete my doctorate and live the abundant life that God Almighty has called me to live. You encourage me to keep going, no matter how difficult the task may appear. I thank God for your timely wisdom and pray that the Lord will continue to bless you and your family, in Jesus name I ask this.

Thank you Dean, If I see you one day I will come up to you and squeeze all the stuffing right out of you for all your wonderful weekly wisdoms, Deangraziosi.com, DGinsiderelite.com your books, all of your education. Your book 30 days to Cash it a fantastic book.
I really appreciate it all.

another good one

I will start working on the resistance problem
this week.

It's amazing how you seem to come up with WWs that are so in tune with what I am going through either at that time or just dealt with.
Once again, I am a day late in listening to the Weekly Wisdom. Truth is, I have had a lot on my plate lately and instead of it being exciting that so much was getting done, it was getting me down. Yesterday was a big downer for me. I kept thinking "How can I move forward when there is still so much undone?" Thankfully, I have the ability to be following my passions in life right now but in order to make them profitable, I need more help. I've been using the same excuses as before " Once I get this done, I can look for more help" and instead of doing that, I find something else to be "that thing" that needs to be done before I can look for help. Why do I do that? I don't know. I took time the other day to just think about things and asked myself exactly " Why am I resisting success?" I couldn't find an answer. Then, tonight, I listen to your WW and POW!!!! there it is. Insight!!! How did you know I needed it now?? ( and thank you for showing up just in time )
I can't wait for part 2!

Please have a safe journey down under and back and I look forward to seeing you and everybody soon in AZ.

Hi Dean,
You are an inspiration to us all!
Have a fabulous time in Australia and a save trip.
Say hi to Tony.
We'll see you in Scottsdale in a couple of weeks, looking forward to it.

Resistance definitely is an obstacle to overcome.Yes you are amazingly accurate again.Thanks for the wake up call.

Dean,
Great weekly wisdom about that resistance we all do fight with most of the time !!
I have a saying that kind of sums up what we must do to gain our total freedom!
"Freedom like War must be waged, in order for us to gain our true freedom we must be willing to fight for it". Over coming that resistance is part of waging that WAR. Freedom of time: being able to choose rather than have to do something is Freedom.
Freedom of Finances No consumer debt is Financial Freedom. These two areas of Freedoms are key to Enhanced Happiness and fulfillment.

with all the crazy stuff i have going on, i'm not sure if i can do this one. it's been one thing after another lately.

Hi Dean! I have that book too! Love it! In fact I'm going to re-listen to it again! (Its Steven Pressfield btw) Go beyond resistance to the higher realm! I've reinvented myself as you know and I'm conquering a million fears; whether it be doing new gymnastics manuevers I couldn't learn when I was a kid, kicking some butt in jiu jitsu or starting new companies and endeavors, or taking on projects that seem like I bit off more than I can chew, or breaking free from things that held me back; and one other thing that I'm not going to mention but you know what it is. I'm conquering and winning! See you at the Edge Dean! I can't wait!

Dean, I am so thankful for your weekly wisdom's! I have grown so much in my self improvment, I have been reading more books every month, matter of fact I have 4 books going right now. I have really had to work on this resistance and I will tell you, now since I have been working on me, I have wanted to hurry and get out there and make it happen.

Sharon - thank you for the quote; that is a great insight and pretty much sums up where a lot of people are at!
