The uns stoppable e you is the one who o isn’t afra aid of anything. She e courage eously ste eps forwarrd in the world w and announce es her presence. You see it in n the way y she holds s her body y, in the way w she moves, m talk ks, smiles freely and a withou ut holding g back, say ys dumb things t without a sec cond thought or mom ment of self-judgme ent, isn’t worried w ab bout what other peo ople think,, and ope enly receives compliments with w gratitu ude and a belief in their t sinceritty. She says “YES!” to all of the t blessin ngs that are making g themselv ves known to her and d she love es herself in spite of any shorrtcomings s she feels s she has s. The sto oppable yo ou is filled with doubt and fea ar. She do oesn’t trus st herself or o others, and worrries that others are approaching her arre for selfiish and ev ven manipu ulative rea asons. You u see it in her shoulders that roll forwa ard and in her inability y to make e eye contact for mo ore than a few seco onds at a time, t in he er constan nt self-critticism and d surety th hat everyo one in hea aring dista ance think ks that du umb thing she just said s is the e pinnacle of idiocy. She’s afrraid to act on ideas th hat come to her bec cause she e’s unsure of their correctness or validiity and is always a asking otherrs for their opinion over her own. o She can’t take e complim ments without disco ounting th hem (eithe er to herse elf, or righ ht out loud d) and she e hates he erself for her h shortc comings. Most offten you experience e e somethin ng betwee en the two o and often experience the feeling of a tug-of-war t r happenin ng betwee en them as you obs serve and judge both b sides. Sadly, this t is a “normal” state of be eing for the majority y of people, most commo only wome en. It’s happened be ecause fro om the mo oment we e could understtand langu uage we observed o i in those it e around us u and the en experie enced it as s a judgment placed d upon us s that we adopted a as our own n.

The followin ng exercise has bee en adapted d from Thomas Leonard of Co oachU. What are a perso onal need ds? Persona al needs (vs. ( physic cal needs such as water, w food d, shelter and love)) are tho ose things we must have in order to be e our best. One can get throu ugh life fairly well not having these t need ds met, bu ut for an effortless, e rewarding and suc ccessful liffe, Person nal Needs must be identified, addresse ed and handled d or there e is a possibility of them sabo otaging ou ur success in life. Many of o us spend d our lives s trying (c consciously or not) to get the ese needs met. Att best, we e treat the symptom ms or get temporary t y relief fro om them. This T is for tw wo reason ns: (1) Most of us assume the ese needs s will “alwa ays be witth us”, and (2) we assume a th hat's "justt the way we are”. This T is nott true! Instructions Please read these instructions twice e. PHASE E 1 - Select 10 Nee eds Read th he list of 200 2 needs s and tick approximately 10 which w reso onate as a need fo or you. You are look king for a NEED - no ot a “wantt”, a “should”, a “fantasy” or a “w wish”. A ne eed is a MUST M for you y to BE YOUR Y BES ST. Part off the first step is to t TELL TH HE TRUTH about wh hat you AC CTUALLY NEED. N This s may be e the first time you have everr admitted d this to yourself. y S Some of th hese you will know inn nately. Others require some frank 'sou ul-searchin ng'. PLEASE E be willing to consider words s you might normally skip ov ver. These may be e hidden needs n and you may have one e or more of the following 7 | P a g e Content used u under license. © 2011 2 www.B BeingsWitho outBorders.c com Module e5 reaction ns to them m: • You may - blush or shake Y s whe en reading g the word d find you u can't gett to th he next word w quickly enough h • You may th Y hink - "No o, I don't want w THAT T one to be b a need"" or "If tha at is trrue, I'd ha ave to cha ange my liife a lot!" Now tic ck the 10 words, fro om the listt on the la ast page, which you u believe to t be Pers sonal Need ds. Ask yo ourself: "If I had this, would I be able to reach my m goals and vision without effort?" e (W Work - yes, but a strruggle - no) If you have h troub ble keepin ng to 10, highlight h e every need you thin nk you hav ve then na arrow it do own. PHASE E 2 – Narr row down your ne eeds to 4 or 5 We all need a litttle of everrything listed at the e end of th his process but we want yo ou to pick k the 4 mo ost important Personal Needs s from the 10 you ticked. You may wish to co ompare ea ach of you ur 10 with h each other and ask yoursellf "Do I ne eed X or Y? Y Which ones o could d I live we ell without? Which ones, when w met,, make the e other on nes not too important?” PHASE E 3 – Rela ate to you ur needs Choose e a particu ular Need and a see how you re elate to it.. A good way w to do this is to take a sheet of paperr and rule it down the middle e. At the to op write the Need. Step 1 Use the e left hand d column to t answerr these questions, "Who am I when I get g this nee ed met? How H do I act? a What do I think k about? What W motiivates me?" Aim forr 5 specific c response es. Use the e right han nd column n to answe er these questions. q "Who am m I when I don't get this need met? How H do I behave? b H How do I feel about myself? About others? o Ab bout life?""
