Looking for the catch

• Are you always looking for the catch?
• Do you look at other people whose results you'd like to have, but there's always a reason why you can't do what they do?
• Or do you see other people whose results you'd like to have and decide to figure how they did it, and get the same results for yourself?

Some people are masters at finding the reasons why 'that doesn't apply to me'.  It's so easy to look for the catch - for example: my parents weren't as wealthy as theirs; I wasn't as good at school as they were; they're so much fitter than I am, they have the energy to do that stuff........I'm not like that.......

If you want to get better results, find someone who's achieving the results you want and model them.  This doesn't mean becoming a clone - it means identifying the qualities in them that you know will enable you to be more effective.  For example - determination and drive.  Often when people become famous it looks as if they just arrived with no effort.  What we don't see is the years of hard work they've already put in to get where they are - determination and drive.

Are these qualities you could incorporate in your life?  The key is to working out what your strengths are that will enable you to get the results you want, and identify qualities that you can develop. 

When modeling someone with the aim of replicating their results, it isn't an 'all or nothing' approach.  Take the aspects that suit you best, that are sustainable within your lifestyle, and that will help you to add more value to your life, to grow and move forward.

Look for the catch - and then turn it to your advantage!
