The Attractitude is about helping you improve the way you think and act; improve your attitude so that you can attract all the best in your life; without having to leave the comfort of your home. I have encountered many people that asked me the same type of questions and also faced the same kind of obstacles. The obstacles and objections I heard are 1- I want to go to a seminar but: - it is far - it is costly (trip + price of seminar) - I don't have the time (I can't leave my kids or my job) 2- I went to a seminar and - when I got back home, I went back to the same old, same old - it was easy when I am away from my everyday concerns but when I am back home, I go back to my usual self - having a coach for a week-end is not enough to improve my life in a long term 3- I don't go to seminars but I buy books - I never come around to reading them - It is easy for them but how do I implement those in MY life - I can't get the answers to my questions Do you feel somewhat the same?
