Things that Block Us from Living an Exceptional Life

1. The I-am-undeserving block: "It is not legitimate to have a dream of my own. I'm not deserving. I'm not worthy." This attitude may arise from a deep negativity implanted sometime in this person's past.

2. The I-need-the-approval-of-others block. (Many variations.)

* The I-must-please parents/spouse/children block

* The materialism block (approval of society, or simply stuff lust)

* The status block (approval of society)

This block applies to any situation where other people's "shoulds" are getting in the way of creating the life you would like to create.

The Reality: You are running your own life. If you don't run it in a way that allows you to be the best you can be -- to fully develop and use your innate talents -- both the world and you will be shortchanged.

3. The fear block. (Again, many variations.)

* Fear of financial loss and insecurity.

* Fear of losing status, losing the approval of society.

* Fear of alienating family members.

* Fear of change.

* Fear of committment. This often takes the form of the too-many-wants block. Unable to choose one central focus because there are too many fun things to do in life. The Reality: You can only do one thing at a time, but there is enough time to do many things in a lifetime. One present commitment doesn't rule out all other commitments, forever. But if you don't commit to anything you lose out on life.

* Fear of failure.

* Fear of success.

The Reality: Action dissolves fear. Do it, and the fear of it vanishes. Get out in the world. Try things. Run some risks.

4. The low-self-confidence block. Even if I might be deserving, I don't have the ability to pull it off.

5. The block of cynicism and negativity. Not believing that exceptional lives are humanly possible, let alone possible for you. The Reality: Good things happen to people who have positive outlook on life. Negativity is a self-fulfilling prophecy.
