I had given up on getting my mission of getting the Controlled Substance Act repealed, just figuring that it wasn’t God’s plan, and I would just be spinning my wheels.  But I went on a trip this month, accomplishing 2 things on my bucket list.  My husband and I traveled to Glade Park, Colorado where I visited with my childhood best friend, Joyce, and her husband, Larry.  From there we went to Bryce Canyon, Utah where we saw God’s amazing rock formations.

Then we flew to Los Angeles and caught a cruise ship that then took us down the west cost of Central America, across the Panama Canal, and back to Miami.  It was an interesting trip, but I must say that 17 days cruising is just too much.  Lucky for me, though, I did not gain any weight, even though we stuffed ourselves at the buffet.

But while I was on the ship, I read a book in their library titled The Miracle Equation by Hal Elrod. Hal makes the extraordinary claim that it only takes two decisions to accomplish a miracle. They are:

1. Unwavering faith
2. Extraordinary effort

So I am taking his instructions, applying them to my goal, and I WILL achieve success.

So Here Goes

My mission is to end the war on drug, doctors, and patients by getting the Controlled Substance Act (CSA) repealed.   The steps to achieve this are:

1. Start with what matters most.
2. Align your schedule with your top priority
3. Establish monthly missions—a single goal each month that supports your larger mission—will provide you with a laser focus on your highest priority each and every month.
4. Establish a resource for accountability
5. Be on the lookout for your Miracle Mentor(s)
6. Make your mission public
7. Don’t forget about your other goals

My Miracle Mantra

I am committed to maintaining Unwavering Faith that I will get the CSA repealed, and I will continue putting forth Extraordinary Effort until I do. No matter what, there is no other option.

Making extraordinary effort ordinary:

3 components:

1. Actions that move you closer to your ideal results
2. Actions that will most likely take you out of your comfort zone
3. Consistent effort over an extended period of time (regardless of your results along the way)

Step 1: Predetermine your process: Which tasks will you perform every day, before anything else?

Step 2: Release any emotional attachment to your results

Step 3: Schedule your process

Step 4: Safeguard your success with accountability. Build an accountability team.

Step 5: Assess your results and adjust your process accordingly.

Schedule weekly or monthly check-ins with yourself to see if your process warrants tweaking. Make your process as clear and as easy as possible.

5 Simple Steps to Create and Implement Your Miracle Equation Affirmations

1. Begin with your Miracle Mantra—a single sentence that encapsulates your commitment to your mission.

“I am committed to maintaining Unwavering Faith that I will get the CSA repealed, and I will continue putting forth Extraordinary Effort until I do, no matter what…there is no other option.”

2. Articulate why your mission is deeply meaningful.

“The reason(s) I am committed to my mission is because people are suffering and dying because of it.

3. Solidify your Extraordinary Effort and make the attainment of your mission inevitable by committing to your process.
   1. Write down your process, the primary action steps that will be necessary to accomplish your mission.

“To ensure that the attainment of my mission is inevitable, I will remain committed to my process of _________ on ___________[dates and times] without being emotionally attached to my results.

4. Establish your Enlightened Entitlement
   1. Remind yourself of the universal truth that you are just as worthy, deserving, and capable of achieving everything you want (and are committed to) as any other person on Earth.

“I am committed to my mission and living every day as a Miracle Maven because I know that I am just as worthy, deserving, and capable of creating tangible, measurable miracles and achieving everything that I want, as any other person on Earth.”

5. Recite your Miracle Equation Affirmations (with emotion) Every. Single. Day

And so I will begin the Miracle Equation 30-Day Challenge.  If you are interested in joining me with this mission or be a part of my accountability team, let me know.
