The 11 Reasons Why We Do What We Do and Do not Do What We Could Do

1. Because of the Personal Operating System (POS) we use.
What is your POS? Does it need an upgrade?

2. Because of the Personal Environment Surrounding Us
You are most like the 5 books you last read, 5 people you spend the most time with, and the 5 places you consistently live and/or travel.

3. Because We Dont Know What We Dont Know
What dont you know that would be wise to know? What do you want to get smart about?

4. Because of Our Degree of Self-Awareness
You do what you can sense. What are you not sensing that would help you know yourself more intimately?

5. Because of What We Believe To Be True
Truth is evolving very quickly. Can you keep up?

6. Because of Our Humanity
You inherited biological and sociological influences such as genes, personality, ego, past, roles, and responsibilities.

7. Because of Our Society
You were born into a culture that often defines who you are and what you should do.

8. Because of the Ideas that Determine Our Thinking
New ideas lead to change. What new ideas can you search out?

9. Because of the Strength of Our Support Team
You need quality friends, coaches, mentors, and people in your life to be your best.

10. Because of Our Level of Openness and Responsiveness
The more open-minded you are and responsive to incoming stimuli, the more adaptable you become.

11. Because We Either Ignore or Follow Our Intuition
If you follow your intuition, you are guided in the direction most joyful to your soul.
