THE COW By Camilo Cruz Ph.D
Audio Produced by CONSEJOS PARA SER FELIZ All the winners share something in common:
They have no excuses. They do not seek to justify
The others why things are as they are. They do not complain about their
Circumstances or make excuses to explain why
Have not reached their goals. Successful people simply
They take action and are in charge of doing what is necessary
To make things happen Of course not always
They succeed on the first try, but they never give up.
If they stumble, they stand up again and start with
Renewed their enthusiasm for their
They chase
The real enemy of success is mediocrity. We aspire
To greatness but we settle for second places;
We want to live our life to the fullest but we end
Conforming to survive. We found an area of
Comfort, we got used to it and let
Long the opportunity to enjoy most things
Beautiful that life has to offer.
To achieve spectacular results in our lives,
First we have to get rid of all the excuses we have
They do not allow us to use our true potential.
The story of the cow is a story about how to get rid of
The habits, excuses and beliefs that keep us tied to
Mediocrity. I have always believed that the worst enemy of the
Success is conformism.
The history of the cow
When you have little, because what little you have becomes
In a chain that does not allow you to search for something better. He
Conformity takes over your life. You know you're not happy
With what you own, but you're not totally miserable either.
You are frustrated with the life you lead, not enough
As to change it.
When you have a job you hate, that you do not
Meet your minimum economic needs and do not
Absolutely no satisfaction, it is easy to take the
Decision to quit and look for a better one. However, when you have a job that
You do not like it, but it covers your minimum needs and offers you some comfort although
Not the quality of life that truly desires for you and your family, it is easy to conform
With how little you have. It is easy to fall prey to give thanks because at least accounts
With something ... After all, there are many who have nothing and would like to have the job
what you have. We all have cows in our lives. We carry
On their backs beliefs, excuses and justifications that
Keep tied to a life of mediocrity. We possess
Cows that do not let us look for better opportunities.
We charge with excuses and excuses to explain by
That we are not living the life we want. We give excuses
That neither we ourselves believe, that they give us a false
Sense of security when in front of us is
A world of opportunities to discover; Opportunities
Which we can only appreciate if we kill our cows.
Define the cow
If you use the "I do not have time" apology frequently,
Justify why you're not doing a lot of things
What you should do, you will see how, little by little, you will begin to
Lose total control over your time and your life. You will start
To live a reactive life, of urgency in urgency, without time
To work on what you truly care about.
Certain thoughts turn into cows because we
Paralyze and do not let us act. They are often ideas
And we repeat without knowing why, concepts we hear
Of other people and that the repetition and the time
Became popular sayings although they are only
Lies lined with a thin layer of something like
the truth. Emotions and negative feelings are
Cows that we inadvertently adopted throughout our
lifetime. We have learned and programmed them in our subconscious
On a voluntary basis and the consequences are generally
Disastrous Negative thoughts do not just keep you
Tied to mediocrity, but gradually destroy
your life. They generate harmful forces and feelings within
Of you that are evident both in emotional states
Harmful and harmful, as in evils and physical problems.
Have you ever wondered if the following sayings encircle
Some truth, or if they are only cows that we use to justify a situation
Of conformism that seems to affect many?
• Better known bad than good to know • Some are born with a good star and others
We are born starred • The important thing is not to win or lose but
To have taken part in the game
So before you rush to use any of these
Supposed "jewels of popular wisdom", make sure you do not
Be perpetuating those cows that only achieve
In your life is to make conformity more bearable. After
Of all remember that evil of many ... consolation of fools.
Your beliefs determine your expectations, they influence
Your way of acting and your way of acting will determine the
Results you will get in your life. Limiting beliefs
Generate low expectations and produce poor results.
Do not accept limitations without asking if they are true or
do not. Remember that you will always be what you think you are. If you believe
That you can succeed, surely you will. If you think not
You will triumph, you have already lost. It's your decision. There is no doubt that the amount of time
With your children today will determine the kind of relationship
That you will have with them in the future.
What makes a human being voluntarily carry a
Cow on his back despite knowing that this one deprives him of living
A full and happy life? It seems illogical to keep something going
To the detriment of our own happiness. The truth is that many people are not aware
Of the cows on his back; Others are
Aware of them, but continue to nurture and nurture them,
Because the cows provide them with an area of comfort
In which it is easy to accept mediocrity as a form of
lifetime. Suddenly, the blame for our bad luck
Is of other people, of the circumstances or of the destination.
Without any cow that justifies our mediocrity, only
We would have two options: accept full responsibility
By our circumstances and change (success!), Or accept
That we are unable to take control of our life
And resign ourselves (failure!).
Mediocrity is worse than total failure. This at least
Compels you to evaluate other options. When have you played
And you are at the lowest point in your life, the
Only option is to climb. Absolute misery, total failure,
The bottoming, force you to act. Some of the most common cows
The danger of finding an excuse to justify your
Mediocrity is that you end up accepting conditions of
Life that you would never have allowed if you had not
excuse. The reason is simple, false beliefs
Are lies that for some reason we have accepted as true.
Have you ever heard the idea that each
Which attracts to your life what you deserve?
I have always believed that perfectionism is one of the
Worst cows ever. The reason is very simple, it's a
Of those cows that come disguised as virtue, which
Seems more like a gift than a bad habit. Listen how
Sounds the cow of perfectionism: "! If it's worth doing,
It's worth doing it right or not doing it ... because that's the
Kind of person that I am! "If you understand? Who is going to argue against
That, if it sounds to responsibility, delivery and excellence. Do not
However, the truth is that it becomes an excuse that
Limits us and paralyzes us, since we never seem to be
Fully cooked. The only way you can get there
Doing something right is running the risk of starting
To do it when you still do not do very well.
The vast majority of the limitations we believe to be
Absurd ideas about our own abilities.
Sadly, many people carry throughout their lives
Fears that paralyze them and rob them of the opportunity to
Reach the goals they long to achieve. The origins of cows
We do not do anything just to cause us harm
But because we believe that, somehow, we get a
Benefit of it. The real problem is mental programs
That we have saved in the archive of our subconscious
And act as defense mechanisms that
Help safeguard the image we have of us
Themselves. Many of the limitations -
Loads currently are not physical or have to do with your ability
Mental, your talents or your talent, but with beliefs
Which, for the most part, are misconceptions about
Of your true potential and of what is or is not possible.
Any misconception that we keep in our subconscious
For a long time and that we validate with our actions
It works as a form of self-hypnosis. When our cows
Have been gifts from other people Many of the cows that bind us to a life
Mediocre we were given by others. Many of
We are often victims of influences
Negative feelings of others; We accept your schedule
Negative - vacancy - without question. By doing this,
We allow them to sow in our minds false beliefs
That limit us physically, emotionally and intellectually.
It is as if the failures of the past had closed for
Always the doors of opportunity to future successes.
However, keep in mind that the future does not have to be
Same as the past, since we can always change, learn
And grow. How to get rid of our cows
If what you decide to do with your life depends on what you count
Or not with the support of other people, because you will achieve very
little bit. Your success can not depend on other people
Decide to support you, to approve the decisions you have made
Taken or enthusiastic about the path you've taken.
Chosen to follow. The only person who can and should be
Enthusiastic about your goals and decisions are you.
One of the worst cows you can have is to believe that
Unless others change you can not succeed. Remember, the
The only person you can change is you.
How can we get rid of our cows? It's simple, the only thing we need to do
Is to wake up to the reality that perhaps the programs and
Beliefs that have guided our actions and expectations
So far have not been correct. We must be aware
That it is possible that we have been programmed to
Accept mediocrity. The decision must be made
Of not continuing to live a life of denial, pretending
That all is well, and identify those cows that
Are stopping on our way to success.
The next step is to understand that, despite having been
Programmed for mediocrity, we have been created
For greatness; And even when we are ordinary people
And currents we can accomplish extraordinary things. It's just
Necessary to open our minds to the possibility of changing and
grow. It is to understand that our future does not have to
Be equal to our past and that it is possible to change and
Build a new cow-free future!
1. Identify your cow: Take the time necessary to
Identify your cows. Take a break on the hectic road
To carry out this self-evaluation process. Do not
Expect your cows to jump ahead, demanding to be
Sacrificed. This first step is one of the most difficult,
Since no one likes to accept that he has cows. Have you given
Counts as the cows of others are absurd excuses that shamefully
Seek to justify the unjustifiable, while cows
Ours are real facts that illustrate how unfair a
Situation in which we are the victims. 2. Determine the beliefs this cow represents:
Many of our cows acquire them during our
Years of schooling, during childhood and adolescence,
And we have charged them for so long that we accept them
As unquestionable truths. 3. Make a list of all negative things
That the presence of these cows represent you. Many
Sometimes we load with certain cows, because we are not
Aware of all the negative they represent in our
lifetime. We know they are cows, but we do not think they are
Doing a lot of damage. But the truth is that every cow
It limits us Perhaps the two most motivating forces
In our life are the desire to succeed and the fear of failure.
Our life is guided, partly by what we most want,
And in part, for what we fear most. And we will always seek
Do those things that give us pleasure and
We will avoid doing those things that cause us pain.
Our mind will do more to avoid pain than to experience
pleasure. 4. Now, list all the results
That will come as a result of killing
You cow Killing your cows is not as easy as it sounds.
Getting rid of a cow requires discipline, dedication and perseverance.
Sometimes you will feel frustrated, because you will fall
Again in the same old habits and you should get up
And start over.
5. Define new patterns of behavior. Many
People kill their cow and stay with the leather;
Keep alive the memory of the animal. You must be careful
Since since cows only exist in thought, it is
Possible for these memories to regenerate and engender
New cows. A life free of cows
Want to succeed, have good intentions and count on
Big dreams will not lead you to success alone. By
Every great idea that changed the history of humanity,
There were thousands of ideas that never materialized, because those who conceived them and perhaps
Developed a plan to achieve them, they never put it
in practice. That was her cow: the lack of action.
Do not let life pass, get rid of your cows
And be careful not to swell the ranks of those who, in the
They can only remember with
Remorse and sadness all missed opportunities.
Remember that the enemy of success is not failure but conformism.
