Chapter 25. A Life Totally Fulfilled
When he goes for the lesson, the pro changes the way the golfer stands, holds the club, and swings. This golfer of twenty years feels totally uncomfortable, like he’s starting all over again. And the first day he can barely hit the ball. He is in an all-time level of discomfort when it comes to his golf swing. But guess what? The golf pro is giving him the proper way to practice— like this book is doing for your life . The golfer can make one of two decisions: 1) He can work through the uncomfortable feelings, learn from someone who plays the way he wishes he could play, and inevitably get better than he ever has been in his life. Or, 2) he can retreat back to what he knew—his old stance and old swing—and inevitably play a mediocre game of golf for the rest of his life. Isn’t this exactly how life is? At this point, you can either put the book down and go back to the life you had, or you can work through any discomfort and make a lasting change. If you bought this book and have come this far, chances are your “Life” game is not where you want it to be. Most likely, no one ever showed you a better way… until now. So you can decide to retreat to the life you had which may not have been great but was comfortable, or right now , at this very second, you can decide that even though it may be a little uncomfortable at first, you are going to take the lessons you have learned, apply them, and win at the game of life. Play at a level you deserve, a level other people achieve every day, by practic- ing and improving upon the right techniques, not the wrong ones. I hope this book made you uncomfortable about areas of your life that are not fulfilled, and that it excited you on a new level because of the endless possibilities available to you. If you learn how to play the game of life by modeling those who are winning at it, then it is just a matter of time before you are victorious.
