What Are The Standing Lessons to Learn Once You Get Off Your But?

Wednesday, September 30th, 2009

Sean Stephenson, Author of “Get Off Your But”, gives you 3 standing lessons to implement once you get off your “buts”.  Sean’s standing lesson #1 is to connect with every one. Communication is the exchange of information, while connection is the exchange of humanity.  We meet different people throughout our life.  Have you ever met someone for the first time and it seem like you have known them forever?  Have you ever met someone who you couldn’t get away from them fast enough?  This concept sound simple but connecting with everyone is a very tall order.

The standing lesson #2 is the most important one because the man in the mirror is always the most difficult person to convince.  You have to connect with yourself.  You have to connect with you.  Insecurity is one of the “buts” that you must get off to stand.  Insecurity is one of the major “buts”, because if everyone connected with themselves in a real and honest way we would definitely have a better World.   The negative self talk in our head sometimes, we would not repeat to our worst enemy.  Thomas Edison failed 10,000 before he perfected the light bulb.  You have to learn from your mistake in a constructive ways.  The destructive ways that people normally tune out of life is through alcohol, drugs, overeating, suicide, etc.

The third and final way to stand is the ability to laugh at you.  You have to find humor in situations that you find yourself very stressful.  We laugh at the expense of others many times, but anyone that with the ability to laughs at themselves will go a long way in life.  We must not take life too seriously because the more we are attached to the outcome the more stress we bring into our lives.  If we focus on the process and not take ourselves seriously, then we would be our way.   When you can truly laugh at yourself the closer you will begin to heal all the past hurts and afflictions.

The 3 standing lessons of Sean Stephenson of connecting with everyone, connecting at you and being able to laugh at yourself is a tall order but once you get off your “buts” you will be able to implement these changes in your life.  The simple act of getting up off your “buts” is the first step and the standing lessons will lead you to a more fulfilling life.  Are you ready to take a stand?

Sean Stephenson Discussed His Book “Get Off Your But” Live

Saturday, September 26th, 2009

Sean Stephenson is a mighty man in a small frame.  Sean does not like to be described as 3 feet tall person confined to a wheelchair.  Sean Stephenson has gone through more trials and tribulations that would make the biggest man fall to his knees.  Sean is the author of “Get off Your But” so you can take a stand.  What I learned from the seminar was that we have no excuses for not achieving whatever our heart desires.

Sean‘s philosophy is that they are 3 major buts that we have to overcome.  The first are fears which normally start with “but what if I fail, But what if I lose…. and continues for as long as you allow it.  Our fears are holding us back, you can go to as many self help seminar that you can fit into a single lifetime, but until you do what is necessary to succeed you are wasting your time.  The journey of a 1000 miles starts with the first step.   The first step may be the most difficult to take, but once you do it is very difficult to stop moving forward.

Excuses are but #2 which normally starts with but I don’t have to do that; but I don’t know how to do that….and continues to infinity.  “Excuses are the building blocks of nothingness.  They serve as monument to inadequacies and those who excels in them seldom do in anything else” is a poem that I heard many years ago and it still sticks in my mind today.

Insecurity is but #3 and what he considers to be the most devastating thing that plagues us.  Sean believes that insecurity of not feeling like you don’t measured up to standards that you have in your mind or set by society is crippling.  These insecurities might be caused by any number of things, but if people felt more secure in their bodies then they is no telling how far this World could evolve.  This but normally starts with but I am not……. (Fill in the blank).  I don’t know what but plagues you but whichever one does get over it and move towards the success that you deserve in your life, business and relationships.

Sean Stephenson describes his turning point in his book when he stopped feeling sorry for himself in vivid detail as a 4 years old child.  The question that his mother asked him changed his life forever.  He overcame the force inside of him that kept him living small in his mind.  When are you going to overcome this force and get off your “buts”?
