Do You Want More Of That Winning Feeling?

By Beth Edwards

Remember the times in your life when you were most proud? The times when you accomplished something that really seemed impossible?

For me, time flies by, and yet at the same time the present moment exists suspended in time. It’s exciting, exhilarating. My attention is totally focused on the task at hand. Opportunities for accomplishing my goal continually show up. I join with others to accomplish the goal. My goal, all of a sudden becomes our goal. My teammates and I seem to be able to read each others’ minds. We freely share information, we anticipate each others needs, and volunteer our talents and abilities. False attempts are merely considered learning experiences, not failures. Each teammate is growing through the experience. Each teammate is acknowledged and admired for their contributions. The exhilaration and the celebration as we reach each milestone keep building. The accomplishment is truly appreciated by others. We all feel like winners.

Every one of us experiences that winning feeling in our life, whether it is in sports, in our work life, or in our family/friends life. We know what it feels like. We also know what it feels like to struggle along. So, which do you prefer? Do I even need to pause to give you a chance to think about it?

Would you like to be able to create that feeling deliberately, as often as you would like?

This is what The Avatar Course did for me. I attended The Avatar Course in 1990. Throughout the cycles and changes in my life, I have been able to create that winning feeling using the Avatar tools.

When I feel that something is impossible, I have an exercise to remove my limiting beliefs which are the cause of that impossible feeling. When I am feeling fear, I have an exercise to replace that fear with confidence. When I am feeling alone and separate, I have an exercise to become connected. When I feel like I want to be appreciated, I appreciate. When I feel I want to use my abilities and talents to accomplish a goal, I have an exercise that sets me up for success.

I’ve taken many educational courses in my life: mathematics, computer science, and different aspects of business. The Avatar tools are the umbrella for all that learning. They are the tools I use to manage my mind. Managing my mind accomplishes tasks and builds relationships; it gives me more of that winning feeling. Since taking Avatar in 1990, I served as president for two large divisions in a Fortune 100 company. The Avatar tools helped me find my life partner. John, my husband, attended The Avatar Course in 1999. John and I are now partners in a management consulting company. Our company goal is to empower others to attain their goals. The Avatar tools are key to both our company and our personal success.

Just imagine a world where one has meaningful business and personal relationships, a world where one gets enjoyment out of their work, a world where one sets and accomplishes right-for-you goals. I imagine my world, and I create it. I am so very grateful for The Avatar Course. Life inspires me.

How do you want to create your life? You can have it any way you want it.
