Do It! Let's Get Off Our But's (The Life 101 Series)

by Peter McWilliams

"I want a nurturing relationship, but..." "I want a fulfilling career, but..." "I want to be healthier, but..." "I want to be happier, but..." IT'S TIME TO GET OFF OUR BUTS! When face with an exciting new opportunity, one that might expand our capabilities and move us ever-closer to living our dreams, we respond with one of two three-letter words: YES or BUT. (Yes, some have merged them into YES-BUT, but they really mean BUT.) When used in a sentence, BUT means, "Ignore all that good-sounding stuff that came before - here comes the truth." "I'm excited about my new exercise program, but..." "I'm really concerned about the environment, but..." "I know how important it is to love myself, but..." Getting off our buts sounds very nice, BUT HOW DO WE GET OFF OUR BUTS??? Simple. Just...DO IT!
