“Don't downgrade your dream just to fit your reality. Upgrade your conviction to match your destiny.” ― Stuart Scott
Sometimes too often I think we forget, it's a choice how we spend the rest of our lives. Or, we think we've made a decision to chase what we really desire, and step back in "safety" and fear, when it gets challenging, uncomfortable or we fail. Or, we blame it on outside circumstance as to why we aren't where we want, aren't living to our true potential or doing what we love, or living the life we truly desire.
I once, knew all 3 to be true.
I often wonder, how different our life would be if I hadn't made a CHOICE to just GO for it. Leap. Learn to fly on the way down. Take a chance on what sounded absolutely crazy, amazing, all that I wanted & in the same instance, almost too good to be true.☺️
Two and a half years ago, I was at a cross roads of...stepping back into safety and my "comfort zone" which wasn't comfortable at all. Far from it. Every single day I racked my brain about how I'd build a life I was proud of for Declan and I. How I'd be present in his life, as a single mom. How I'd ever manage to find a career I was passionate about- when the weight of being a provider was ALL on me (and if I wanted to pursue my original plan prior to having him, of being an art therapist-it meant I had at least 5 years left to get my Masters- which sounded like a deep hole of debt I didn't need). Everyday I looked in the mirror to see a sadness in my eyes, of a girl who wasn't living up to her potential, wasn't who she knew she could be, and it was fuel to me.
Desperation turned into inspiration, was my greatest motivator. Fear became my fuel.Fear of mediocre in all senses, that is.
I became a coach (after telling mine NO for four months because of the BS story I was telling myself). And here I am on a Sunday night. Home with my baby. Happy. Healthy. Humbled. Fulfilled. Grateful. Peaceful. Getting ready for a week- where I do what I LOVE every damn day. No anxiety of living on someone else's time schedule for me. Where I know showing up, matters for all the people I coach and lead. Where I provide comfortably, and someone else doesn't set the bar for my worth, hard work and how far I desire to go. Where we have freedom. Where we are living a life that I once on had as a vision and a dream, glued in pictures and words to a poster board next to my desk. Seriously. Where I now, get to pay it forward and lead others (my team) to creating their own wildest dreams and lives by design. They are different, for all of us.
Every night, I've told Declan, "baby I'm building our dream life." What a blessing it is, to be able to doing what I love.
Coaching isn't for everyone--- but I'm not looking for anyone. I'm looking for people who desire change, desire to be the best versions of themselves, desire to make a difference in the lives of others, are committed to their dream & personal growth more than their committed to the BS stories they tell themselves of why they can't.
YOU CAN. It's a choice. I'm proof.💕
Success isn't for the "lucky".
In my book, it's been a combo...
✌🏻️Preparation (personal growth) +
😎Attitude (belief and mindset) +
Opportunity (something amazing that's presented itself to you)
💕PASSION (loving what you're doing, having the courage to make it a priority) +
A strong emotional WHY (the reason you will never give up and settle) +
ACTION (grab it by the horns and run with it) = LUCK.👊🏻
