		<description><![CDATA[When I read Tracy A.'s newest piece, "Top 10 Things Between You and a Great Life," it felt eerie.

I thought, "This girl's been reading my mail!"

Because, at one time or another, I've fallen into every one of these traps. And I bet you have, too. Now having them listed and explained eloquently, as Tracy does here (reprinted with permission), is a powerful resource for motivational behavior change... I expect I'll review the list often.

<strong>3. Avoiding rejection. </strong>

If you're like me you're OK with taking risks as long as they're not too risky! I'm not a big believer in jumping off cliffs and building wings on the way down; I just don't believe that life has to be that frantic but I do know that my fear of rejection is one of the fears that I still struggle with and it's been eye opening to take a look at how it really gets in my way. 

<strong>4. Procrastinating. </strong>

We tell ourselves some fantastic stories to increase our level of comfort with not getting off our duff and going on there and really scuffling it up on the <!--more-->]]></description>
