http://mindpersuasion.com/subliminal/ No matter what you want, you need to take action. You can either take action yourself, or wait for somebody to push you. Which would you rather do? http://mindpersuasion.com/subliminal/

2. I had a friend once with a swimming
pool.

3. Once I was over hanging out, and he
was trying to coax his 8 year old
nephew to jump in.

4. The kid could wade in and swim, he
was just scared to jump in straight
from the side.

5. Finally my friend grew a little
impatient, picked up his nephew, and
sort of held him/dropped him into the
pool.

6. After crying for a bit, the kid started
jumping in over and over again on his
own.

7. Once I was at the mall, going to a
movie.

8. I was getting ready to go up the
escalator.

9. In front of me was a mom with her kid,
who was terrified of the escalator.

10. She was trying to convince him it was
safe, then saw me waiting.

11. So she picked him up and carried him.

12. I noticed that right when she did that,
the looked of terror on his face
suddenly changed to happy relief.

13. Once I bought a new truck, much
bigger than my old car.

14. I was complaining to my friend that
parking it was much different.

15. He just said, "Don't worry, it's weird at
first, but pretty soon you won't even
notice."

16. There's plenty of ways to ease into
something you don't want to ease
into, but you KNOW you've got to ease
into.

17. You can wait for somebody to push
you, or wait for somebody to pick you
up, or take your time until it gets
comfortable.

18. The first two aren't really good
strategies, as they depend on other
people.

19. People that are always depending on
others to get them going tend to wait.

20. Usually their whole lives.

21. On the other hand, self starters tend
to ALWAYS get the good stuff.

22. But here's the thing.

23. Self starters aren't the super human
warriors we imagine they are.

24. Every single moment of their lives is
them choosing to act, rather than wait
around.

25. From the outside, they look the same
as the rest of us.

26. Only they get all the breaks, meet all
the right people, and seem to be much
happier.

27. Are they lucky? Or do they just lean
forward into uncertainty a little bit
more than most?

28. That's the real secret. Not being a
super hero.

29. Just having the mindset of always
going forward, even in tiny, baby little
steps.

30. Even if somebody is right there to push
you in, waiting for them to do so may
cost you a fortune.

31. Or a crucial few seconds while you
watch some other goof go over and
talk to the person of your dreams.

32. It's up to you.

33. Are you going to take action? Or wait
for somebody to FORCE you go take
action?
