I recently signed up for a Task Force basically it's a training session for personal and business growth.  Daily challenges forces the trainee out of their comfort zone to get you over yourself so you can succeed.  This was the exact reason I decided to join the Task Force, I wanted to take my successful home business to the next level.  

It started off easy a questionnaire with basic questions that opened up the train of that of what I want and why I want it.  Each day became a little more intense.  One example were the following 3 simple questions:

1. What do you want? 2. Why do you want it? 3. What’s gonna stop you?

Although they are short questions when I dug deep to type up my answers it reaffirmed for me why I'm doing what I'm doing and why but most importantly it proved to me that the only thing in my way is MYSELF!  

Today's task was to write down all of my fears, doubts, anything holding me back from being successful in my business.  I included things from people doubting me to internal battles I live with each day.  After I wrote out the list I acknowledged the words I wrote down.  It was disconcerting to see exactly how much I wrote down and how it flowed so quickly.  I then took the paper and tore it up into little pieces saying "goodbye" on each tear.  Once I had my pile of papers I was amazed at how liberating that step actually was.  I felt stronger and ready to achieve all the things I want.  The final step of the task was to take the papers to the bathroom and flush them down the toilet.  Watching the doubts and fears I wrote down actually flush down the drain was definitely symbolic to removing those fears and thoughts from my mind.

What I found so interesting about the task was that the task was to write down doubts and fears that are hindering my business.  On the list there were also very personal items.  I don't know why I forget that all areas of my life affect the other areas.  Of course my personal and private life affect my business.  The good part is I have now acknowledged it and can grow from it.

Day 1-  October 16, 2013

A couple weeks ago I met with my personal trainer Tina and we did a health assessment.  Although I didn't expect the best results there are a few things I did not expect to be so bad.   It was scary for me to see how my body really isn't working well.  In the spirit of full disclosure I have included a screenshot of the health assessment that I did with my trainer.  My plan is to have the same assessment done around my birthday which is March 16th and I can see how my medical levels have improved or worsened in 5 months.
