Inhabit You

I am your constant companion.
I am your greatest helper or your heaviest burden.
I will push you onward or drag you down to failure.
I am completely at your command.
Half the things you do, you might just as well turn over to me,
and I will be able to do them quickly and correctly.
I am easily managed; you must merely be firm with me.
Show me exactly how you want something done, and after a few lessons I will do it automatically.

I am the servant of all great men.
And, alas, of all failures as well.
Those who are great, I have made great.
Those who are failures, I have made failures.
I am not a machine, though I work with all the precision of a machine.
Plus, the intelligence of a man.
You may run me for profit, or run me for ruin; it makes no difference to me.
Take me, train me, be firm with me and I will put the world at your feet.
Be easy with me, and I will destroy you.
Who am I?

I am a HABIT!

"The important thing is to tell yourself a life story in which you, the hero, are primarily a problem solver rather than a helpless victim. This is well within your power, whatever fate might have dealt you."

Some compelling thoughts on the difference between change and transformation:

“Change can change back. (We can go from conservative to liberal, from disciplined to undisciplined…) Change is volatile. Transformation is completely different – though sometimes it is called change. Transformation never makes the past wrong. It transforms it. It doesn’t deny it. It honors it in a way that you can move forward without making anything wrong, and having the past somehow now become complete, rather than wrong. Transformation has a permanence to it – where once you transform, once you awaken, once you see the stations you didn’t see before, you can’t go back. Transformation has the ultimate power of time, and what the world is crying for now is transformation, not necessarily more change, though some change may be a part of it, the route to transformation. Transformation suddenly makes the past make sense, and new futures open up.” ~ Lynne Twist, global activist and author

It's good to not think of ourselves in fixed terms. Know that you are flexible, written in pencil not pen. You, as the artist, can erase and draw new shapes.

An innovative and playful approach to changing habits

My husband came across this really interesting article from yahoo about Hugh Jackman's preparation for Jean Valjean in Les Miserables.

"The prospect -- and reality -- of playing one of the most well-known characters in the history of musical theatre in a movie terrified Jackman, who has struggled with fear and anxiety throughout his film career. For guidance in dealing with the immense pressures of playing (and singing) Valjean, Jackman turned to self-help guru Tony Robbins.

"I said, 'I want some help. I got this job, and sometimes in front of the camera I can't feel as relaxed as on stage,'" said Jackman in a recent interview with The Hollywood Reporter. "[Tony] said it's not about denying the character within you who feels nervous. That fear serves you to work hard. It's not about going, 'F**k you, I wish you weren't here, get out.' It's about embracing that. He goes: 'Man, you're playing Jean Valjean. You should be scared!'"

Robbins went further and suggested the actor give distinctive names to the secure and insecure sides to his personality.

"'Frank' was the more confident, and 'Charles' was the other," said Jackman. "Tony said, 'Charles is your sensitivity. Charles makes you question. Charles makes you work harder. When you walk on set, thank Charles for everything.'"

Jackman believes this approach was highly effective in helping him deal with his fear and even in getting rid of it. "Tony really transformed my life."

Here's the rest of the article.
