Eliminate the word “should” from your vocabulary.

Eliminate the word “should”

from your vocabulary.

This

will help you become keenly

aware of each time you give up

your personal power. Here’s an

example: one day, you might say to

yourself,

“I want to sleep in, but I should

get up because I have to go to

work today.”

That sneaky “should” is actually

robbing you of your personal

power! How would it feel if

instead you said this:

“I want to sleep in, but I also want

to keep my job, so I’ll choose to go

to work today because I want that

more than I want to sleep in.”

Doesn’t that feel far more

empowering? Instead of

presenting yourself as a hapless

victim of fate, you’re acting as the

captain of your own destiny. You

are the one making the choices,

you are the one choosing to do

what makes you most happy.

It’s easier to eliminate “should” if

you have a partner to catch you

when you slip, but you can do it

on your own, too. Soon you won’t

even miss it - we didn’t use the

word “should” anywhere in this

manifesto except in quotes, and

we bet you didn’t miss it, eh?......
