Hi Lexington!

Have you thought about what excuses you use to hold you back from living the life of your dreams? Every thought and action that doesn’t continue your path towards living the happiest and healthiest life you deserve is simply an excuse to hold you back.

If you find yourself living life less than you deserve, ask yourself ‘What excuses am I using?’ In Wayne Dyer’s book “Excuses Begone” he outlines 18 excuses we use on self-defeating thinking habits.  See if any (or all) ring true to you and then reframe them into a thinking pattern that uplifts you to be your best self.

1. It will be difficult

2. It’s going to be risky

3. It will take a long time

4. There will be family drama

5. I don’t deserve it

6. It’s not my nature

7. I can’t afford it

8. No one will help me.

9. It has never happened before

10. I’m not strong enough

11. I’m not smart enough

12. I’m too old (or not old enough)

13. The rules won’t let me

14. It’s too big

15. I don’t have the energy

16. It’s my personal family history

17. I’m too busy

18. I’m too scared

Now, you have no excuse not to shine!
