Do have an “effective-disorder

Posted on Feb 21st, 2006 by Shawn : Integral Strength Shawn
In each and every moment of life you are either “acting upon” or being “acted upon.” Simply stated, you are either at cause or at effect. This is to say you are choosing strength in the moment or you are succumbing to weakness.

You can recognize these poor people by their complaining and beliefs that they have been victimized by life – they act and therefore are helpless and unwilling to play an active role in shaping their own destiny.

To be at cause is a choice, one that you and every single person on earth can make. You’ve made that choice when you are leading, helping, caring, contributing, and simply making a positive difference for others in this world.

I have discovered that results in any fitness program depend almost entirely on your ability, willingness, and courage to be at cause.
