Are you obsessed with short cuts?
Shortcuts come in all sizes and descriptions. They are an attempt to get you somewhere the easy way or to avoid something which you ought to face.
Chances are you’re in that crowd. And chances are it hasn’t worked out for you.
One of the ironies of the search for perhaps the most sought-after short cut in the world — the quick fix diet shtick for healthy, you’ll-never-gain-it-back-and-it-won’t-kill-you weight loss — is that even if there was one, it wouldn’t work. It wouldn’t work because when it comes to making lifestyle changes that are affected by many decisions in the course of a day, a person needs to be in conscious control, completely vigilant—and not pursuing blind faith in some outside force.
When it comes to weight loss, all magic bullets and quick fixes are defeatist because their implicit message is that the person is powerless to change him- or herself. Magic bullets ALWAYS keep you dependent and helpless.
Whether in business or in life in general, there are no short cuts to ANY place worth going!
