I haven't been on my computer for a couple of days and was going to skip it tonight but glad I didn't. Your column was so enlightening, there are a few things I have to change for 2012. Thanks.

I think there is something to the line you shared, too. Life is certainly about service as well. Where it gets tricky, in my opinion, is when we serve from a place of depletion. Then, no one benefits! Thanks for reading and commenting. :-) Thanks, Daddy-O! I think there is something to the line you shared, too. Life is certainly about service as well.

Even had me thinking. Saw a line the other day "IF YOU WANT TO GET WHAT YOU WANT YOU MUST GIVE TO OTHERS WHAT THEY NEED." Sounds like you would reverse that line. LOVE DAD Kerri,

Try to not fight with your ego and instead embrace and love it. As I wrote above, imagine that your ego is a frightened little girl who is so scared of change. She's going to resist it at all costs, even if the change is truly for the better. Reassure her and let her know you're there for her and that you love her. Fighting against her only forces her to become louder and more bratty. ;-) Thanks for reading and writing, Roberta! Try to not fight with your ego and instead embrace and love it.

Thanks for reading my post. I can really appreciate the difficulty in taking time away from the computer. There are SO many great resources on here. Just be careful to not get so caught up in them that you lose yourself in the process. Trust that the information you need will be available to you whenever you reach for it. The Universe is always conspiring in your favor. Trust it enough to be there for you and it will be. Show it that you can be there for yourself, too, and it will really come out in force for your best and highest good! Try scheduling appointments in your calendar to focus on things you'd like to spend time on that don't involve the computer. Consider these appointments as important as any others and do your best to not skip them. By scheduling this time, you'll feel less guilty when you do spend time on the computer, knowing that you are tending to all aspects. I wish you the best! Hi Margaret!

Take some time to consider what fears could be going on behind the scenes when it comes to the changes you want to make. For example, if you exercised regularly and started to feel really good about yourself, is there a fear of being too "out there" and noticeable? Is it safer to fade into the background? It's these fears that make up our resistance and why we need to love it up. Good luck! Hi Karen,

Thanks for contributing to the conversation! Yes, consistency is key, for sure -- consistently loving yourself even when you slip up, or aren't consistent with your planned actions. We must take care of every part of ourselves -- the ambitious side, the scared side and the excited side! Happy New Year, Marie! Thanks for contributing to the conversation! Yes, consistency is key, for sure — consistently loving yourself even when you slip up, or aren’t consistent with your planned actions. We must take care of every part of ourselves — the ambitious side, the scared side and the excited side!

You're on the right track with the idea of getting some support. While it may or may not be in the form of a partner, taking things one baby step at a time will help you more clearly identify what you need help with. Check in and be sure you're intention behind looking for a "partner" is in hopes of someone coming in to rescue you or do it for you. Your big idea needs YOU. Break down the path to that big idea one action step at a time. And remember, if you're avoiding the action step you've laid out, it's probably just too big. Go for it! Hi Renee,

Kerri I know the EGO is so powerful and I constantly fight with it each day I awake. Sometimes my spirit is here and present and other times I have raised the white flag. It is like I climb a hill and then stumble over a pebble and fall half way down again. I am not giving up and still want to work with you. My only concern is I need to get my soul in a better state. If we talk and you ask about any of my demons , I will get emotional and give into tears. This won't help either one of us! More then anything I want to be at peace with my soul and have those I love ..love me back without me questioning if they are sincere! Much Love xo Roberta Hello Kerri
