The overachiever

Today’s notes, causes a feeling of uneasiness at first, after a few moment thinking about it and sorting out the argument, I finally realize what was the hold back. For some reason I don’t remember I thought that overachiever were people with no heart and only one thing in mind “money” no matter what. And I remember creating a statement in my mind that I will never be such a person. I reality I have at time become the overachiever and for some reason it always left me dry and unfulfilled, no wonder. I found myself even today working on some great important project and giving it my whole. When the project is done again I feel unaccomplished, unhappy, wanting for more.
Today’s notes are really bringing something home I have within most of the qualities described I am a go getter, I thrive to great achievement, but because of my old programming I feel defeated when I succeed. Being unrealistic, well that’s me how many time I put my head down listening to that label being applied to me, ever since I can remember, both my parents warned me of failing because I dream to big. And many times I made great things happen, and someone else get the credit, another way of self destruction. I have a lot to let go and rebuilt from the ground up and I know I can do it.

The Science of Getting Rich

Over 3 years ago a came across the book SOGR by W.Wattle. For me it was like discovering the world all over again and like a child I started a journey that will never end. My very first “important” book was, I was in my early 20’s How to win friends and influence people by Dale Carnegie. From then on the search for was on. The next book was acres of diamonds. And on and on from one book to the next. Each book a read left me with hunger for more, and when SOGR found its way to me it was a revelation like never before. What is very interesting is I paid money for every other book I read but SOGR came to me for FREE. I realized that Wally, as we love to refer to him in our circle, is a phenomenon, a giant nothing less. Every book I read has its roots, directly or not in the SOGR. All the way back to Napoleon Hill’s Think and grow rich. Wally started me in an all new way of thinking and operating, my life as changed drastically, I am not the same person I was little over 3 years ago. I am very happy about it and people around me are happier too. No effort from me. And today here I am participating in one of the best adventure of my life, becoming a better person, and enjoying the ride totally. I have done many things in my life; nothing is bringing more satisfaction than what I am doing today. For Wally and the SOGR I am extremely grateful. For the philosopher’s notes challenge I am grateful to keep focus on what is important. And for everything that is taking place in my life right now I am very grateful, even if at time it doesn’t feel too good, it is good all the same.
