To make a real change in lifestyle approaches, an Achievement Ladder Enthusiast considers climbing up and down and around the Ladder of Achievement with a total transformation rather than a reformation approach. To be the NEW PERSON in a manner that is truthfully expected of a transformed person, a total conversion and a total renewal has to occur that is significantly different than the former person. For example, when an addict reaches total bottom of their addiction, the decision to really change or just go through the motions will determine the sincerity of the commitment of the desired choice of changing for the better. To "ring true" is the object of any transformation that is holistically achieved in every human dimension. Many persons want to be "politically correct" just to please their adversaries and their opponents by using a "human respect" deceitful justification. To speak the TRUTH requires an integrity that transcends the human level and approaches the divine level of honesty.
When we observe the political process in going through a "reformation," multiple theories and ideologies are impacted by varying points of view and many times an "indifference" in serving the constituency. Representative political environments consider the maximum common good rather than the "hidden agendas" of the extremists or the elitists who think that they control the decision making of their respective representatives. Often "human laws" are contrary to the "divine laws" that makes a dilemna in making a sound decision to follow transforming basic life principles. To ignore the rights of the majority in favor of the "minority" is often seen as a way of gathering votes for the next election process. To stand up for what one truly believes to be the TRUTH takes a total transformation that will alienate many dissenters and embarrass their own "party's rhetorical answers." Reforms are just what they are: "bandaids" as a popularity contest that will "put a finger in the dike" to avoid the eventual flood that will be devastating in the long run. To transform any situation into a viable option requires an honest assessment while also considering all of the consequences that have a cause and effect in the long run.
We applaud all aspects of transformation that will require an honest desire, dedication, and determination on the part of the responsible individuals who are making judgments that will affect the lives of their constituency. The Achievement Ladder Enthusiasts are eager to make the move to a total commitment to the basic principles that are consistently in line with the Ultimate Principles of the Creator of the Universe. The Only Way, the Only Truth, and the Only Life that is worth living for and is worth transforming to gain requires an authentic "metanoia" or conversion that will affectively transform all environments into the Peace, the Joy, and the Love that is expected of all worthy transformations. Are you ready to be a "Transformer" in the world preparing one to be prepared for eternity or are you content on being merely a "Reformer" that is void of substance and reason and is basically a "secular humanistic religion."?
Always remember what you have learned as an Achievement Ladder Enthusiast. Your transforming lifelong education is your Ultimate Life Choice. Guard your Transformation and be Body Builders that transcends mere human existence, but also respects and admires the sacredness of all human life, born and unborn. Choose Life and Stand Up for your Principles!

This was actually the first blog a I have read and I did actually enjoy reading it more than i had anticipated.I particularly liked the example of the addict that really helped me to understand the concept better. -Victoria Bryant
I very much enjoyed this post. In the beginning you spoke of the acheivement ladder, and being able to climb both up and down it, which is oddly enough something that I never really considered. When I thought of the acheivement ladder, I thought of something that was like a stepping stone. But I only considered moving up. It makes it nicer to think about being able to move in both directions. I know in my life specifically, I've experience a lot of set-backs, which makes me feel like I'm not really getting anywhere at all as far as achievement goes. But it's really just about your will and your persistance. Even if you have to take a couple steps down, it is still possible to climb back up and make it to where you want to be.
Also, I like the way this post turned into 'doing what is right'. It is very true, as you mentioned, that people are starting to do what they believe others will see as right, which shouldn't count for much of anything. I believe that people should have their own values, their own moral standards, and that they should be able to stand up for themselves and their rights regardless of what everyone else thinks. Each person is different, and their life is going to have had an impact on their decisions and their beliefs. Every opinion, every belief, should be just as important as the next. People should feel free to share those. People should never be embarrassed of what they believe in, and in the same respect, no one should ever tell someone else that their opinion is wrong. It's different. They're different people. That's the whole point.
