Why it’s SO hard to keep the faith when life gets tough.

Have you ever wondered why it’s so damn hard to keep the faith when things get rocky in life?

Well last night I had a really powerful conversation with my mindset buddy via text about this very topic.

We were chatting about our individual paths and how even though we do this work for a living, it’s still difficult at times to keep the faith and BELIEVE in the magic and wonder of our dreams.

When the going gets tough and shit hits the fan in life, we often lose sight of all that we know, trust, and teach.  We doubt ourselves and forget all the wonderful things that have happened in our lives.

I realized during that conversation that is something many of YOU are dealing with too, because after all we are all human right?

But why?

Why do we get so caught up in the messed up reality before us when we know that all we have to do is shift our thoughts and things will improve?

Today I did a live stream on my Facebook Page that you absolutely have to see.  It’s my explanation as to why we do this and how to break free from the illusion that you are indeed stuck in some ‘reality’ or another.  You ALWAYS have the power to change it and it’s closer to you than you think!

MOST people aren’t willing to do this…are you?

TRUTH TIME—>

MOST people aren’t willing to do what it takes to make their dreams come true.

I’m not talking about blood, sweat, tears, “hard” work and hours of sleep lost either.

I’m talking about breaking out of the safe, secure, and let’s be honest, a bit too predictable-comfort zones we find ourselves in just before we realize we MUST break free.

You see, most people FEAR the unknown.

I know I did…hell I STILL do!

I’m equally terrified by the thought of big changes and completely stifled when I don’t have enough change.

BUT, I’ve learned to DANCE with it. I’ve learned to get comfortable with the discomfort and TRUST that the path forward will always end up with something amazing, mind-blowing, and soul expanding for ME.

It ALWAYS leads to a greater lesson, bigger purpose, longer-lasting joy and alignment…always.

But it wasn’t always that way.

In fact, the more I fought the idea of change and leaping outside my comfort zone, knowing good and well that is exactly what I needed, the harder it got.

The very foundation upon which my identity was built began to crumble, one brick at a time.

I lost myself, my vision, my safety net and was all of a sudden blessed with this incredible desire that scared the shit out of me.

I was going to change the world and hadn’t the slightest idea HOW or WHY I thought I actually could do something so big.

 

Who the hell did I think I was???

I didn’t think I was anything special and yet, I couldn’t let this feeling go.

I tried to ignore it for years, but you see that’s the thing about your purpose…when it’s your purpose…I mean REALLY your purpose, you can’t hide from it, no matter how hard you try.

So, I had nothing else to do but step into the unknown one inch at a time and trust as much as I could.

NOW…well now taking risks and stepping into the unknown is a bit easier.

It’s definitely still uncomfortable, but now I know the reward that comes from what feels like a huge risk and I know it’s worth it.

The life you desire, the career you crave, the pure joy that you know is possible yet still slightly out of reach—> all of that lies just outside your comfort zone and you must be willing to take the risk to step into the unknown in order to experience the amazing expansion your soul craves.

That’s just how it is.

So…tell me what’s more comfortable for you?

Continuing on the path of certainty and settling for the mediocre experience you’ve grown used to?

OR

Stepping out, with maybe wobbly knees and butterflies in your stomach onto a path that is a risk, but the reward is oh so sweet you can almost taste it now?

I chose the risk.

What do YOU choose?

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.

Consider this your official call to action: It’s time to stop hiding once and for all!

You know it, I know it, and so your intuition knows it, but something, SOMETHING is stopping you in your tracks every time you even consider stepping out and honoring your truth.

Maybe it’s fear.

Maybe it’s the question of what others might think of you.

Maybe it’s your mind playing tricks on you as it lists out all the magnificent things that could go wrong!

Maybe it’s that gut-wrenching, tummy-twisting, knot in the stomach that says—It’s not SAFE to be me!

And yet…you know.

You know it’s way past time for you to step out and step up so you can let your magnificent, beautiful light shine so you can FULLY be YOU.

I’m talking embracing ALL of YOU.

Your strengths, quirks, power, passions, and joy for life.

It’s time…the world NEEDS you, your light, your passion, purpose, and mission.

It.Is.TIME.

Now, if you are reading this you may know without a shadow of a doubt that it’s time to stop hiding, but you aren’t quite sure HOW to step out, step up, and to fully stand in your power.

You may have doubts that it is possible.

You may not even know what you are passionate about.

And you may be so bound by the cycle of thoughts in your mind that keep you stuck, stagnant, and down right paralyzed that you don’t even know where to begin.

This message is for YOU.

Feeling STUCK? You may be missing these 2 key ingredients

If you’re NOT where you want to be in LIFE you’re likely missing 1 of 2 things…and maybe even BOTH.

There are 2 KEY ingredients to creating the life you desire and they might not be what you think.

It’s not money…

It’s definitely not luck…

It’s not who you know (though in some cases that doesn’t hurt)…

It’s MINDSET & ACTION…

In the work I do, I find that MOST of the women I work with are missing one of the two and there are quite I few who are missing BOTH.

MINDSET—>

If you can’t fathom your life being any better than it currently is…how can you think it will ever change?

If you can’t see your dreams coming true in the best possible way, how in the world are they supposed to?

Not sure it’s ok, acceptable, and you are worthy of living the life you desire?

Then how the hell are you going to ever make it happen?

You HAVE to be in ALIGNMENT mentally with your vision. You have to BELIEVE..TRUST…HAVE FAITH..and keep going!

And you know what trips most people up beyond anything else—->the HOW.

If you struggle with this remember, that’s not your job.

Your job is to CHOOSE your dreams, your new reality and your new normal and step into your reality daily through your mindset practice and when you do that you are half-way there.

You don’t need a map or a blueprint or a step-by-step outline of what you need to do.  The truth is, that would limit you more than you ever realize!

Get your mindset, SET for success, joy, peace, happiness, abundance, and anything you need and desire.  That is the first step!

ACTION—>

This is the OTHER part people often forget that is far more obvious but without the initial MINDSET work…seems impossible.

You don’t have to know the HOW as I said…that’s not your job.

But you DO have to take INSPIRED ACTION toward your vision and TRUST it. Entirely.

Staying paralyzed because you’re afraid you might not make it or maybe you will.

 

Maybe you will fail or maybe you will succeed beyond your wildest imagination and the thought absolutely terrifies you!

<—- FYI: These thoughts will NOT get you to where you are going. —>

 

Fear is going to be there anyway. Might as well make friends with it and the discomfort of expansion too.

When you step into the new reality you want to live, there will be expansion, discomfort, and stretching yourself to achieve the thing you were put here to do…YOUR PURPOSE.

That’s all there is to it and without these 2 incredible pieces of the puzzle…you won’t get anywhere.

 

So where are you on the spectrum?

Got your mindset work in order?

Taking inspired action toward your vision EVERY day?

If so, congratulations you’ve hacked the code and figured out the big ‘secret’ that has so many scratching their heads.  Also know that your success is inevitable.

 

However, if you are missing one or both of the key components above…it’s time for a great, big, massive overhaul of a change and it starts with the button below.

Now, I’ll be the first to tell you that you most certainly don’t NEED a coach to get to where you want to be in life, however if you want to get there faster, some support is definitely the way to go.

 

Hit the button below and let’s talk.

Remember it’s TIME to live the life your soul craves.

The question is…are you ready?
