PRODUCING: THE DIFFERENCE IN DOING AND DONE

THIS IS A POST PARTICIPANTS CAN ENGAGE IN

Results define the value of what we do or have done. Desiring to deal with and do the work of communicating, ordering our finances or organizing our lives is an ongoing undertaking. The very act of recognizing a problem "associates" us with that problem. What we do first determines what gets done in the end. By owning our shortcomings, we do things that involve insight and honesty. This post is the second part of a three part series that requires doing! Any participant must examine their own conditioning and beliefs by openly indulging each individual response. Our answers to the five questions are the key to discovery. The first question speaks to the core of our desires. We will examine our desires and their evidence in two ways. The first way we will call our intentional desire, what we are willing to do, and the second will be termed actionable desire, what we have intentions on doing. Both desires feel the same at conception but have very different results.
1. Are we trying to change our condition/environment or ourselves/thinking? 

WHAT ARE WE PREPARED TO DO ABOUT IT?
what will it take to get it done?
when will we begin doing it?
who will we get to help?

Needs unlike desires require corresponding results. Addressing our needs rather than continuing to cater to our habits and wants is a transition that we must make in our own best interest. The results will become a product of our efforts choice, circumstances or pressure. Whenever the source to fulfill our needs are birthed externally we are denied the  personal choice to recognized, address and control them. Some may think that we are only the effect of our lives and not the cause. However, the opposite is true. What we do or what gets done to us is our responsibility first. Our drive to survive can dictate those actions. We take more control when we initiate actions that address foreseen situations.
​2. Do we take actions in response to anticipated needs? (which ones?)
​

Creating our lives gives us more direct control over what we consciously want to happen.  We now have the knowledge of how to powerfully create our destiny in line with universal principles. Life will be created on purpose by what we do or by default by what someone else or society does. Something will be created, whether we are aware of it or not. During this week give out three predetermined compliments each day by plan or at random. Keep notes on the responses. Find someone to talk to about how we felt after each response. We can observe our power to create by doing this. The best salespeople, musicians and artist are very creative.
3. What effect does our creating have on ourselves, others and the surrounding environment?

Many of us set goals at the beginning of each coming new year. Most of these resolutions to do  different things typically go unfulfilled. Wishing without setting specific measurable results and establishing milestones is a setup for failure. We may pledge to perform, but a pledge without a plan is unproductive. A real plan requires a declaration and a full investment. Goals must have measurable criteria in order to be considered goals. An investments is when we put our money where our mouth is. We should consider calling our plans or goals "investments!"
4. Name a desire we sincerely have and want to achieve but have not invested in.

​Life is defined through language. The one thing we have total control over is speech. What we say connects to what we do. This also implies that whatever we're attached to is expressed in our feelings and behavior towards it. Personal objects are tangible representations expressed through verbal and logical reasoning. The thoughts and things we maintain are essentially us. This is why we must identify, confess and deal with our own faults. We can choose to find breakthroughs and not do business as usual.
5. Match an age or time in life that corresponds with all of the following events.
​
a. When we were publicly praised and/or criticized and became the center of attention.
b. When we were not recognized for an obvious good deed or accomplishment.
c. When we shared a really private or intimate confession.
d. When we anonymously performed a public service or random good deed.
​e. When we were the victim or recipient of someone who did us right or wrong.
