Page 45 - The 5 Second Rule: Transform Your Life, Work, and Confidence with Everyday Courage
P. 45

When	 Donna	 first	 learned	 the	 Rule	 at	 an	 Aveda	 Institute	 Conference	 she
thought,	“Yeah,	yeah	I’ll	use	it,	but	it’s	not	going	to	be	life	changing…”	That’s	how
I	 felt	 about	 the	 Rule	 too—that	 I’d	 just	 use	 it	 as	 a	 trick	 to	 beat	 the	 snooze	 alarm.
Boy,	 was	 I	 wrong!	 So	 was	 Donna;	 it	 changed	 just	 about	 everything	 in	 her	 life	 and
business.	 As	 Donna	 found,	 “Only	 we	 can	 hold	 ourselves	 back.	 It’s	 amazing	 to	 see
how	 horribly	 I	 held	 myself 	 hostage	 out	 of 	 fear	 and	 where	 I	 am	 today.	 More
importantly,	where	I	see	myself 	in	years	to	come.”

    As	 you	 use	 the	 Rule	 more	 and	 more,	 you’ll	 begin	 to	 feel	 courage,	 confidence,
pride,	and	a	sense	of 	control.	The	Rule	has	that	effect.	I	often	tell	people	“the	Rule
will	haunt	you,”	and	I	mean	it—just	ask	Darryl.
