I'm grateful that my book has been helpful and I can tell that you are well on your way to getting out of endurance. It is exciting to read about your awakening and to know that you are not only creating a more rewarding life for yourself but for everyone who is in your presence by acknowledging your own worthiness. Thank you for writing. Hi, Wendy.

Thu, 08 Jun 2006 22:13:23 +0000 http://stopenduring.com/blog/?p=3#comment-7 Dear Jane: I just started reading your book Enough is Enough last week and am just up to page 67, Chapter 4, and am loving every page. The above-stated question of "how to begin to stop enduring" and your answer of "start anywhere" I have already experienced the "start anywhere" because I have applied some of your techniques to several incidences of thinking and responding differently in my life after just reading the first 67 pages of your book. I have already begun to apply a different thinking strategy to respond to various incidents in my life. Rather than accepting something without question and just responding to the stimulus, especially if the response that someone is asking me to do is not in line with something I value, I am acknowledging that I have a responsibility to myself and feel that I am worthy to provide a response that supports my beliefs. I am just beginning but feel more positive than ever that I can begin to tackel ALL of the many ways that I have been shortchanging myself by not being truly honest about my values and my worth as a person. Your book is truly wonderful in that anyone can "start anywhere" with your principles to begin to change their life and how they respond to incidents. I'm far from being fully competent yet, but I am so glad that I found your book and an beginning to take a more active part in the development of my future. Regards, Wendy M. Dear Jane:

In recovery there's a saying that "we're only as sick as our secrets" and I am reminded of that saying while thinking about self-judgement and limiting beliefs. The irony for me lies in the the fact that whenever I am able to let go of a lie and embrace the truth, I am relieved of a huge psychic weight and amazed at how much easier everthing falls into place. Where I saw chaos I now see a design. Why, when it's that liberating, can we be so quick to fall back into fear-driven behaviors? Thank you Jane for your wisdom.

I'm going to throw some credit back your way for being a courageous woman with a lot of inner wisdom. In fact, I've got to give you, Carole, the same feedback. I've been fortunate to travel down some of both of your paths and admire you both very much. Annie, thank you for the kudos.

Instead of listening to the radio when I drove to work, I decided I would review all my beliefs one by one. I did this over a period of many months and eventually, years. As I did so, my life and career began moving in the direction I wanted to go. As I accomplished my initial goals and dreams, I began to raise my expectations of what I could do and set new goals and dreams. Over the next 15 years, my career expanded and my passion for my work grew exponentially. However, I now realize that my husband and I weren't able to do this with during our marriage and we are getting divorced. So, I am now using this technique again to create my vision and goals for this next chapter of my life as a single woman. And, I expect I will be doing this through-out my life when I am not getting the results I want.
