We have been taught that imagination is not
real, but, your deep internal mind cannot
differentiate imagination from actual experience... Work with me... and use your imagination... during this presentation... Imagination is real and powerful...

"The Road Not Taken".
Two
roads diverged in a yellow wood,
and sorry
I could not travel both
and be
one traveler, long I stood
and
looked down one as far as I could
to where
it bent in the undergrowth;
Today imagine... you are standing at a fork in
the road... You have come to a decision point?... Should
you continue to do what you have been doing with regard to unwanted habits and
fears?... You think about all the problems and concerns that the inabilities,
brings into your life...
You all are here to change... your unwanted
behavior... in what you can do differently... or behave in a more functional
manner...
The road on the left is a slow downward road.
It is easy to take the Low Road... You could just coast down it. It is the path
of doing what you have been doing for so long. But, it is a path of misery...
The road on the right goes upward. It will
take some effort to take the High Road... It is the way
of freedom.. It is the High Road To Success!... It is the road of
being unafraid and having the useless habits and behaviors left in the past.
Look at the road on the left... It means
carrying all of the problems associated with continuing your anxiety even
longer than you already have... Think of how bad your behavior makes you feel...
Really allow yourself to feel... the
weight of the burden...
Feel
your desire to be free... from all of the ill effects of hurting yourself this way...
Imagine going down that low road,... of being disappointed,... one more year... There you are,... after one more year... of being misunderstood... because you
have continued... to suffer... Feel the
weight... of the disappointment...
in yourself... You notice the things that litter this painful way of living in anxious self-doubt... How many others are hurt... by your inabilities?...
There is a mirror there... you see yourself... and you
ask yourself, "Am I pleased with myself?... Am I happy to have another
year of self-doubt?... Do I feel better having made this decision?... Do I look and
feel better about myself, or not? Do I feel smarter?... Feel
the disappointment... you have in
yourself... for continuing to be afraid... for another year!..." Really
feel the consequences... of
remaining on this low but easy road...
Come all the way back to now ... to the
beginning of the fork in the road... And,
feel better... because none of that has to happen yet and it doesn't have to...
You have decided... not to let that happen to you... You have decided to take the
High Road of Success on the right!... You know that it will take a little more
effort, but now you know in your heart...
that it is worth it... You have decided to start respecting yourself! In fact
you have already left the old way... by coming here today!... You are already taking your first steps... toward
freedom... and success on the road on the right...
Let's see this new decision to leave your
fears or habits. You think about all the good positive changes that becoming
free from the fear!... Being free... from all those problems,,,
you have the feeling... of really being in control and confidant... Free! Free!...
You are now on the path on the right; it means success and a feeling of energy
and optimism...
Imagine going down that road... of having made
these changes... There you are... after one year... of being in control... You feel
good, great!... You have done it... you are a success... and you never felt better...
and you feel even better yet!...
There is a mirror there... and you see yourself and you ask yourself, "Am I
pleased with myself?... Am I happy to have accomplished my goals... for a whole
year?... For a moment just reflect... on all of the positive aspects of yourself: your creativity,...
your intelligence,... your talents... People see you as a good friend...,
a good worthwhile person... Just imagine
yourself free... See yourself, confident,... certain of your abilities, very certain,... your
correctness, certain of your talents,... and certain of your appeal... Ask
yourself, "Do I feel better... having
made this decision?... Yes Do I feel smarter?..." Feel the pride... that is inside of you. Was it worth it?... Yes, you want to continue... and stay on the
High Road of Success?...
Anxious hiding is now simply something that
you used to do. It was a mistake to have ever done it...
You now have a new found level of certainty...
you are ready... really ready... change!... You are now ready stay on
the road on the right, the High Road of
Success...
You all are here... to be free of unwanted behaviors... for the benefit of you and your
loved ones...

finishes with:
I
shall be telling this with a sigh.
Somewhere
ages and ages hence:
Two
roads diverged in a wood, and I ...
I
took the one less traveled by,
and that
has made all the difference.
