SCRIPT 2026 COMPLETE QUESTIONS AND
FULL SOLUTION
●● Dr. Wayne W. Dyer, an education counselor, writes,.
Answer: "Every human being's essential nature is perfect and faultless,
but after years of immersion in the world we easily forget our roots and
take on a counterfeit nature." Is it possible to shed this unwanted facade
and truly be the person you really are and really want to be? Yes—
certainly you can release yourself from the chains of the past and the
excuses that have kept you stuck.Dyer also absorbed the ideas from the
work of Dr. Bruce Lipton, a cell biologist whose research is challenging
the whole concept of genetic determinism. Lipton and others have
discovered that genes are not self-emergent; they cannot act for
themselves. Genes are basically the blueprint for our foundation. It takes
some stimulus or energy in the form of chemicals, frequencies, thoughts,
or other sources to make the genes function. This means that our DNA
does not completely control our destiny but rather, for the most part, we
do
●● Positive thoughts.
Answer: In this chapter, we will look to living a healthy lifestyle as a
privilege and an opportunity, not a chore. It could be a challenge to think
of being physically active and eating well as drudgery or no fun. Those
who just love living these healthy lifestyle behaviors are fortunate folks.
The hard work most of us need to do is on our attitudes. If we can be
,positive about doing what it takes to be healthy, we are well on our way
to wellness.
●● Free Yourself from Fatalistic Thinking.
Answer: Ridding ourselves of fatalistic- or deterministic-type thinking
will free us to put our excuses behind us, such as "I'm not good
enough/athletic enough/capable enough, I'm getting too old, I just don't
have time, I was born (or raised) this way, I can't change." As Dyer has
written, "any thought patterns that do not enhance and expand your
joyous development are excuses." We can become what we believe, even
genetically, according to Dyer and Lipton. Try this affirmation: "I am
much more powerful today than the old programs and mind viruses that
I absorbed in my childhood."It is time to eliminate blame from your life.
You have the power to choose. When you blame, you are denying that
power; you are giving your power to someone or something else (Figure
2). Be willing to give yourself permission to express the power of your
positive choices. As you rid yourself of blame, you will rid yourself of
much negativity. When you believe in your power to choose, you will
find that you are more compassionate, more interested in being kind to
others and respecting their power to choose. Several of the health-related
principles put forth by Dr. Dyer to help us be rid of excuses include "be
willing to allow health, happiness and success to flow into your life, and
live here and now in your mind as well as in your body."

"I am much more powerful today than the old programs and mind
viruses that I absorbed in my childhood."
-
,Make wise choices, not lame excuses.
●● The Power of Being Aware.
Answer: It is amazing what awareness will do. Dyer discusses a study
done at Harvard University and reported in Psychological Science in
2007. The study involved 84 women room attendants at seven hotels.
Half of the women were told that their work met their daily requirement
for fitness and the other half were not given that awareness. This was the
only intervention of the study; there was no change in the normal
routines of any of the women. In just 4 weeks, the researchers found that
in the group whose awareness was raised regarding their physical
activity there was a significant decrease in key parameters including
body fat, BMI, blood pressure, and weight. The researchers called their
study "Mind-set Matters: Exercise and the Placebo Effect."Dyer poses
these questions that form the essence of the Excuses Begone! paradigm.
Think of an excuse you use and take it through these questions.
Is it true? (Probably not.)
Where did the excuse come from? (I allowed it.)
What's the payoff? (I get to avoid risks and stay the same.)
What would my life look like if I couldn't use this excuse? (I'd be free to
be myself.)
Can I create a rational reason to change? (Easily.)
Can I access universal cooperation in shedding old habits? (Yes, by
simply aligning with my source of being.)
How can I continuously reinforce this new way of being? (By being
vigilant.)
, Take the excuse through these questions and this thinking process as
many times as necessary to set the foundation for your willingness to
eliminate that excuse.
●● Intervention.
Answer: procedure or treatment designed to expand knowledge &
relieve suffering.
●● Placebo effect.
Answer: An improvement in one's health or life that is due to an
unidentifiable medication or treatment.
