Episode Summary

There’s a difference between what you say you want and what you say you intend to have. One is “desire” and the other is “it will happen.” When we set our intention, we are willing to go to any lengths for it to happen. We are willing to become a better or upgraded version of ourselves; to take with us the best of who we are and leave the rest behind.  Are you willing to go to any lengths? I wasn’t 40 years ago and I learned in codependency recovery that I would need to be willing to go to any lengths so what I intended for myself would occur. Some 35+ years ago that meant eliminating everything non-essential from my life and focusing on my recovery from codependency or else I was going to die. I went from no recovery work to 9 meetings a week for my first year. I learned that half measures availed us nothing. Not half results, but nothing! No results! And that if I wanted to experience the miracles that recovery offers, I needed to be all in – 100%.  So, have you been “all in” on anything in your life? This may have been the first significant time for me. Yes, I worked hard on other things in my lifetime but to dedicate myself with a powerful, intentional focus on healing from my codependent ways of living was a first for being all in. What about you? Are you a quitter?
