Awaken The Giant Within Summary

The three decisions that control your destiny are:

1. What to focus on?
2. What things mean to you?
3. What to do to create the results you desire?

• By changing any one of these five elements ( a core belief or rule, a value, a reference, a question, or an emotional state ) you can immediately produce a powerful and measurable change in your life.

• Everything you and I do, we do either out of our need to avoid pain or our desire to gain pleasure.
• It’s not the events of our lives that shape us, but our beliefs as to what those events mean.
• Focus on where you want to go, not on what you fear.

• Raise your standards and believe you can meet them.
• Develop a sense of certainty that we can and will meet the new standards before we actually do.
• In life, lots of people know what to do, but few people actually do what they know.
• In essence, if we want to direct our lives, we must take control of our consistent actions.
• It’s not what we do once in a while that shapes our lives, but what we do consistently.

Here are few pointers from the book.

In life, Lot of people know what to do but few people do what they know

Know that its your decision not your condition that determines your destiny

Most people can experience pain yet fail to change because they haven’t experienced enough pain

Most of us base our decisions about what to do and whats going to create pain or pleasure in the short term instead of long term.

We are not driven by reality but perception of our reality.

Three categories of Beliefs.

1.Opinion

Opinion is sth we feel relatively certain about, but the crrtainty is only temporary because it can be changed easily.

2.Belief

A belief, on the other hand, is formed when we begun to develop a much larger base of reference legs, and especially reference legs about which we have strong emotion

"Live life fully while you're here.

Experience everything. Take care of yourself and your friends. Have fun, be crazy, be weird. Go out and screw up! You're going to anyway, so you might as well enjoy the process.
