COMMITMENT Leads to SUCCESS - By Debbie Ruston

Name: Email:


In June/07, I had one of the most empowering experiences of my life! I was in Australia attending a conference relating to my business.


While there, I had the opportunity to participate in a firewalking exercise with over 500 other like minded entrepreneurs. I must say, I had some apprehension beforehand....the scientific stats are that you receive 3rd degree burns at 140 degrees...these coals were 1,100-1,200 degrees.
Here you can see a picture of when they first "lit" the firewalk. Yikes....looks kind of scarey to say the least!

So, why would someone actually "choose" to participate in an event like this and why would someone choose "not" to participate.

First of all, choosing "not" to participate really boils down to a couple of things - fear and limiting beliefs. And here's the thing....fear and limiting beliefs affect every area of life and hold people back from really achieving what they want in every area of their lives. And, most of society doesn't even realize how facing fear and limiting beliefs head on, will help you grow in every area of your life.

It may be as simple as being afraid to really express your emotions with people you love, and therefore, your relationships suffer. It may be being afraid to learn to do something new - and therefore you stay stuck in limitation. Possibly you are afraid to take take risks with investments, and miss out on huge financial gains. Perhaps you have always wanted to quit your job and do something for yourself, be your own boss, but limiting beliefs stop you from taking that step because you are stuck in the limitation - the perception of "security" that traditional jobs offer.

There are many, many reasons that people will choose "not" to participate in an event like firewalking....and as I said earlier, it boils down to fear and limiting beliefs.

That is exactly why I choose to participate.....I don't allow excuses to get in the way of living my life the way I truly want. I don't allow fear to stop me from having extraordinary experiences. I don't allow limiting beliefs to control what I think I am capable of.

I am have taken a stand to live my life fully, with no limitations, with freedom to choose what I want and what I don't want in every single area of my life, to grow personally every day, to live into my full God given potential, and not be afraid and realize that I am capable of being, doing and having ANYTHING I truly want in my life, and to be an example for others that choose to live a life without limits.

That is empowering, and when you are empowered, you can be, do or have ANYTHING that you set you mind to!

In Your Service,

Debbie Ruston
