The cost of giving up…

There have been many times when I’ve thought about giving up, particularly when I couldn’t really see my way forward. 

You see, when I began this path, nothing was certain.

I made a decision to follow my heart and LIVE my purpose and 2 weeks later, I got laid off from my full-time job.

I had no clients, no money, and a dream.

A dream to help empower women to see their true brilliance so they could finally step into their power and LIVE the life they were meant to.

A dream to teach women to listen to their intuition, see and honor their truth so they could go out into the world and make a difference.

I had NO idea how this was going to take shape and while over time it began to get more clear, there were moments I thought of giving up.

But, you see the cost of giving up is much greater than just a hit to my ego.  The cost of giving up effects not just myself and my family, but the world.

The women I could be helping and the people they would then help as an extension from the support I gave them.

You see, it’s all about the ripple effect.

Giving up on my dream means I’m also giving up on yours and every single time I thought about throwing in the towel, I remembered the great cost of giving up.

But…recently I am seeing more and more women settling for ‘what is’ instead of digging deep and doing the work that is needed to move beyond where they are.

I SEE the dreams in their eyes, the inspiration in their soul, and the tired, worn out beliefs they carry with them that are holding them back.

Like heavy baggage, they slowly move forward, if they move at all while most simply settle for this moment, allowing their dream to be just that…a dream.

Let me ask you something…

When did you decide you’d never make it?

When did you decide the life you desire wasn’t meant for you?

When did you decide it would just never happen?

When did you decide that this is as good as it gets for you?

Do you know?

Was it when you got knocked down for a moment or when you thought that one little trial was the sign that THIS wasn’t meant to be?

I’m seeing a whole heap of incredibly talented, intelligent, powerful women throwing in the towel because of their current circumstance.  They’re allowing their current “reality” be the reason they lose hope and give up completely.

But, here’s what they don’t know (or in the least they have forgotten):

What you SEE in front of you is merely a reflection of the beliefs you hold in your mind and in your heart. 

What you SEE in front of you is NOT an indication of what you are able to do unless you give up.

We’ve already talked about the cost of giving up, so why on earth would you allow yourself to give up on your dream, your vision, your desires, AND the very people that need you most???

I think it’s pretty clear that right now we need all the positive change-makers we can get rallying together with their gifts uplifting, inspiring, and supporting others and you are no different.

We NEED your light.

We NEED your power.

We NEED YOU to step up and see what you bring to this amazing world and you can’t do that by thinking that this is as good as it gets!

If you don’t believe better days are ahead, then what’s the point of all of this?

It’s time.

It’s YOUR time.

It’s way PAST time for you to get your mindset together and make a difference not only in YOUR life, but in the lives of the very souls you were put here to change.

So, are you still willing to give up on yourself knowing what it costs?

Choices—> You Always Have Them

Every morning, I spend about 45 minutes doing mindset work and as I was doing the journaling portion of my work this morning, I found myself writing statements that started with I CHOOSE.

Things like…

I CHOOSE happiness, abundance, and love.
I CHOOSE to believe in the greater good of all.
I CHOOSE to believe that my life is limitless.
I CHOOSE peace, love, and abundance in all areas of my life.

And it struck me that MOST of us don’t believe we truly have a choice in life.

With the recent political circumstances, decisions, and governing bodies around the world, there are SO many people feeling powerless and lost in the shuffle.

They are letting FEAR lead the way as they wonder what will come of their future.

HOW will they live?
WHAT’s going to happen next?
WHAT’s the purpose of all of this?

And yet, they forget, overlook, or simply tune out of the idea that they have a CHOICE in this moment and every moment forward.

WE ALL DO.

Listen, I know that the world looks like it’s going to hell in a hand basket and we are losing hope with every violent act, shitty political candidate, and governmental decision, but even in all the chaos, perceived instability, and the shit-storm that is happening around us…WE HAVE A CHOICE.

 

Every time you THINK a thought, watch the news, engage in a conversation or turn your focus to FEAR—> you’ve made a choice.

BUT you also have a choice to turn your thoughts to love, to focus on what is going right and in the least focus on what it is you WANT to experience in the world around you and believe it or not THAT is where your ‪power‬ lies.

YOU decide what you want to believe and therefore attract into your experience.

YOU decide where you focus your attention and therefore what you experience in your day-to-day life.

YOU get to DECIDE…today and everyday and that is so much more powerful than anything the government can do for you.

 

It’s time to take back your power and DECIDE what YOU will experience and there for attract into your life.

I guarantee it’s worth a bit of a mindset shift.

Turn your thoughts to love, forgiveness, abundance, joy, peace, support, compassion, community, happiness, prosperity, and all the things you actually WANT to attract into your life.

For THAT is where you have the power even in the grimmest of circumstances.

CHOOSE where you will focus your energy and love.

CHOOSE what you will do to shape the world and make a difference.

But most of all CHOOSE what you want for YOUR life for it will create ripples across the world for years to come.

There is no more time to waste…we all must do our part to focus our minds in the right place to create change and if you aren’t sure how to shift your mindset or how to more fully step into your power, I invite you to schedule a free 30-Minute Consultation below.

Your PAST doesn’t matter…

Consider this your TRUTH BOMB for the day—>

Your ‪PAST‬ doesn’t MATTER…unless of course you wish to repeat it!

The mistakes you’ve made, relationships you’ve been in, the money mishaps, crappy careers, and horrific failures you’ve had in the past DON’T FREAKIN’ MATTER…

THOSE things are NOT you. They are merely reflections of the thoughts, beliefs, and emotions you had streaming at the time.

That’s it!

It’s like opening a book and reading one page and thinking the entire book is about what you saw on that one page…that’s now how it works folks.

UNLESS of course you WANT that!

If you want more mistakes, money mishaps, dwindling bank accounts, shitty relationships, crappy careers, then by all means keep ranting, raving, and revisiting the past and telling anyone who will listen about your story of how you’ve been STUCK for so many years. (By the way if you’ve been stuck for that long, it’s time to get some support and I have JUST the program for you. )

The ONLY thing that will get is you is back in the SAME sinking boat with more stories to tell in the future.

BUT…if you want to actual create a new reality and experience your NEW NORMAL then you MUST tell a new story or in the least focus on what you want.

Seems obvious right?

Unfortunately too many of us get stuck in the story of who were were, how we were raised and what has stopped us that we can’t actually SEE that we are in fact perpetuating the same thing over and over again.

If you want to change your ‪reality‬…both current and future…START NOW.

Consider this your action plan:

  • Make a list of ALL the things you LOVE right now.
  • THEN add to that list all the things you WANT in your life as if they have happened.
  • THEN go out into the world and focus on the stuff you enjoy, like, love, etc.

That is how you create ‪‎positive‬ ‪#‎change‬ folks…it’s not by focusing on the problem.

Focus on the problem = more problems.

Focus on what you want and stay in a high vibe ‪mindset‬ and emotional state =creating what you want.

For some it’s easier said than done…believe me, I know.  That’s why I DO this work.

In the past I allowed myself to get so caught up in the bullshit story in my head about why it wasn’t working, what had happened to me, and pointing the finger to everyone and every thing else that I lost my power completely!

I really, truly thought life was happening TO me rather than me LIVING it and thriving.  I thought this was just my luck and when asked, I’d gladly bring up all the old baggage, proof, and evidence that supported my claim.

Many years later, knowing what I know now…I was simply STUCK in the past and repeating it in my future.

Lucky for me, I didn’t wait too long before owning my power and allowing it to work FOR me instead of against me.

The truth is, we are only limited by what we think and choose to believe in our minds and if you desire a different outcome and you no longer wish to revisit, rehash, and regurgitate your past, I sincerely suggest you step up and focus on what you DO want. 

You don’t have to do it alone, but if you choose to, you can totally use the action plan above.

You’re more powerful than you realize and that POWER comes from THIS moment…not rehashing your past.

P.S. If you DO want support and help moving into the right frame of mind to create massive change in your life instantly, schedule a chat with me and let’s make it happen, just hit the link below.

Do you want to be truly happy? Do this!

For far too many people ‘happiness’ is an ever-elusive future possibility.

With more money, love, success, adventure, ____(fill in the blank) we think we will have more joy and happiness in our lives, but I don’t believe that to be true.

What I now know, from many years of going against the grain of my own soul is that happiness is not only an inside job, but it requires a few key components…none of which you have to wait for.

You want to be truly happy?  Follow these simple steps.

  • Speak your truth.  Stop allowing others to stifle your essence as they tell you who to be and how to act.  Lean into your natural flow of living, breathing, and being and give yourself permission to speak your truth.  Know what you want out of life and go get it, unapologetically.  Stop following the herd and doing all the things everyone else is doing because you think you’re supposed to.  Find your truth and then live it, every.single.day.
  • Find your flow. I talk about this all the time with my clients and it’s SO important when it comes to being happy.  Finding your flow is all about leaning into what works for you.  Stepping into the path that while it might be a challenge is exciting, invigorating, and inspires you.  It’s about finding what you do naturally instead of following all the ‘traditional’ how-to guides.  Oh and one more thing…stop judging yourself for NOT ‘fitting in’ with the status quo.  You weren’t meant to fit in my dear…you were meant to find what works for you and do it beautifully.
  • Know what you want…then go get it.  Sounds simple enough right?  Unfortunately there are far too many people not willing to be honest with themselves about what it is they truly want out of life.  Speak it into reality.  Know it. Own it. Live it. Love it. And while you are at it…love YOURSELF.  

Without these 3 things, happiness will always feel just outside your reach.  The reality is that only YOU have the power to make yourself happy.  Don’t play victim to your circumstance any longer and allow yourself to be FREE knowing that you deserve to think, feel, and experience happiness every day.

And one more thing….

If the steps above feel a bit too difficult or you are rolling your eyes say ‘yeah right, that’s all you have to do!?’, hit the button below and let’s chat.

Your happiness is priceless and you shouldn’t be spending another minute living in uncertainty wondering when and if you will ever be happy.  Helping clients find it within themselves is my specialty, so let’s talk.

Beliefs become your reality. What do you believe?

by

One of the core pieces of breaking free from being stuck in any situation is identifying the beliefs that are creating your current reality and shifting them immediately.

Too often we use our outer reality to be the proof that we base our beliefs and inner truths on, when in actuality it should be the opposite.

What you believe CREATES your reality, not the other way around.  So, when you find yourself struggling financially, in relationships, in your career, or in any other area of your life, it’s key to understand what beliefs you have that might be holding you back.

Are you arguing for your limitations?  Ready to shift the shit and move on with your amazing life already?  Check out the video below.
