I am willing to complete my life management to the degree specified above.

Accordingly, I am willing to spend in the range of ___ to ____ per week on this.

MY BARRIERS TO COMPLETION

Clearly and obviously, if I haven’t gone further toward completion, there is a reason, be it a conflicting need, erroneous beliefs, not-straight thinking, or whatever.

So, the question is: What’s keeping me from going further in this area or as far as “would be best”?

I already have a superior knowledge and practices that have created my life being

excellent and happy.

I feel somewhat cynical and resigned about this as I’ve tried some things before or seen

others do so and they haven’t produced much.[1]

It takes too much time.

I don’t see how it could be as efficient and effective as I would like.

I don’t know where to go for assistance.

I don’t know what to do.

_______________________________________________________________

I realize that it could be beneficial to address each one of these to see if the barrier(s) can

be reduced or eliminated.

[1] This can be a relatively common experience as most people do not pick systematically. Instead, they end up picking when the need is intense or urgent, pick from what is publicized or more glamorous, pick from friends’ recommendations, or just end up in a “what comes up next” selection, etc. While a friend’s recommendation is a positive first step in screening, it is insufficient. Any other “proof” or recommendations from highly respected persons? Does it fit your needs (or is something to lead up to it better or should you be at the next level? And others.
