To Succeed… Stop Trying

The one thing that will stop you getting what you want is trying too hard.

Or we could put it another way: the one thing that will stop you getting what you want is thinking that you have to try hard. Or... thinking at all because, as we all already know, all thinking leads to over-thinking and we end up suffocating the life out of ourselves.

So, let this episode be an adventure for you into the world of how this works for real people... I'm using plenty of examples in this episode about how what you need "falls into your lap" or "just happens" when you "stop trying", "do nothing" or have "gone beyond caring" (AKA stopped trying!).

When you stop thinking - the thinking that leads to trying, struggle and stress - you'll discover that you have what the normal mind would consider "super-human powers". You'll discover not only that the journey can be effortless - you'll actually discover your very own journey.

A little too cryptic for you? Well we haven't even talked about spit yet!!!

I’m Willie Horton and I’m a psychologist. Since 1996 I’ve been helping my clients and followers all over the world change how they think - that changes their perspective and their lives… and it’s transformational.

I’m originally an accountant and banker, from Dublin Ireland, now living in the French Alps (I know a bit about transformation too) and I can tell you how to change your life one simple step at a time (there are really only two steps).

Hope you take one of those steps today.
