What’s Holding You Back?
Anything that doesn’t move you forward is just holding you back or leading you astray.
Take a moment right now and put some serious thought to this. What is holding you back or hindering you Today in your business, relationships, promotion on the job, losing weight, from exercising etc? You get the picture.
Life is filled with “things” that will keep us from moving forward.
What are the hourly distractions that come your way? You must figure out what they are and Resist them with passion. However, if you don’t know “WHY” you must resist and ignore them, then you won’t and it would be impossible to.
You need a real reason “WHY”.
Why do you want a promotion? Why do you want to lose weight? Why do want to better that relationship? Why do you really want to make more money?
Your reason why must have massive meaning.
Did you know that only 97% of all people on this planet never see their true potential and live the life they were meant to live? Do the math. This means that a whopping 3% really see their hearts desire come to pass. Where are you today? What is the difference between these two groups? It is also known that these 3% have their goals and desire clearly written out on paper and have it put to memory. Study after study reveals that “nothing is real until it is on paper”.
I wrote an article a few years back called, “For the Dying, Trying Internet Marketer who wants to Finally Make it Happen.” But it can also be applied to all walks of life. It’s all about “Your Why.”
Your why must have Passionate Purpose. If you were trapped at the bottom of a pool struggling to set your self free to escape to the surface, gasping for air, your passionate purpose at that given moment would be free yourself from what was keeping you trapped. Nothing else would matter. You definitely would not be thinking, “if I can’t escape this then I will be late on my car payment!”
Focus on “Your Why” today, your passionate purpose in life. Write it down. Figure out what is holding you back and associate with it as if you were gasping for air at the bottom of that pool. It’s time to hate whatever is holding you back!
Do you truly HATE that bad habit? Do you truly despise it? Does it make you sick to your stomach and want to vomit just thinking of it?
Despise it.
It is Time to Hate it with Passion.

A good article but how do you actually go about finding your ‘Why’?
Hi Karen,
Your question is really good. I found a article by John Di Lemme in ezinearticles and I just bought a book by him and makes it so crystal clear. Here is link to his post and I encourage you and anyone else to get to know him and his story!

you are correct, we must hate it with a passion. sometimes we don’t even get time to ask why when our foot’s stuck in a drain–so to speak. we barley have time to passionately escape from whats holding us back. but this is good to remember because i really need to take the time to think about what’s holding me back at least–not time to ask why, but time to hate it!
