My Pattented Solution to Every Problem Anywhere - The EEET Method

John Wesley, over at Pick the Brain, nails one out of the park with his post - Here’s a Tip: Start Thinking for Yourself

He is, once again, brilliant and right on!

So many are looking, so desperately, for the one-stop cure-all magic-pill solution. We hop from one scheme/plan/method/secret/teacher to the next hoping to “get it” and be done.

The funny thing is there is an answer - Effort, Examination, Experimentation and Time.

That will cure all woes. But, who is willing to do that?

As an example, the clicking point for my ongoing journey from 396 pounds afraid, desperate and isolated, to 189 awake, grateful and connected was the moment I decided to actually do something about it. The next click was when I faced the fact that it had taken me 21 years to get to that point, and would take me more than a few days to get out. Finally another big click occurred when I realized that the trick was not losing the weight, the trick was learning to live my life without the numbing comfort of food addiction (but, that’s another story.)

I have learned that with all four of the components in the EEET Method (tm, copyright, patent-pending) one can progress through any problem we face.

Effort -

To affect any change things must move from there current state

Examination -

Determining both the roots of the issue being worked with, and the tools available.

Experimentation -

Tracking progress and matching for effectiveness. Journaling is highly valuable here. One should never be afraid to give a given tool a full day in court, and then to drop it and change to a new one as needed.

Time -

Nothing ever occurs outside of time passing. Ever. Any change to be wrought in our lives is nested in time. The least we can do is honor that by putting in the time required to affect a change rather than just the time we are willing to put in.

There it is. The supreme universally applicable EEET method. If you would like to donate for the amazing power of this incredible method please click the donation link below and send me a dollar.

    Travis, I couldn’t agree more with you about the power of EEET. Congratulations on your weight loss. It’s inspiring, and writing about it will give others the motivation to attack their personal demons.
