What you spend your time on each day really matters.
What you DON’T spend time on each day also really matters.
Because let’s face it: There are a ton of things you COULD do each day. Your entire day could be filled with tasks and you would still get to the end of the day feeling unfulfilled and like you accomplished nothing.
Wait…
You mean that’s how things feel NOW?
Of course you can’t enjoy life more! Of course you can’t make more money! Of course you can’t feel completely free! Of course everything feels hard!
Because you’re doing the things you don’t need to do and avoding (or half-assing) the things that are important.
I’ve created multiple businesses in the past 13 years and most of them failed. Not because the business was bad. Not because the idea behind the business was bad. And definitely not because I was bad. They failed because my strategy was bad.
It took me over a decade of trial and error (and a lot of money, time, tears and frustration) to learn the proper strategy.
A strategy that allows me to –
Work when I want to
Make money being me
Create/say/do/be/have anything I want
Cultivate meaningful relationships
Enjoy my life more
Travel business class always
Spend hours writing and reading every day (2 of my favourite things)
Eat whatever I want
Buy whatever I want
Make money easily
Work with people I really LOVE
I mean, I could go on. I just wrapped up an hour of journaling time where I filled up 2 pages of things I’m grateful for in this moment. There is A LOT for me to be grateful for.
The strategy I learned was one that has really catapulted me into the ultimate success. Not just in my business, or where money is concerned, but in pretty much EVERY area of my life: family, relationships, health, body, mindset, lifestyle, etc.
It took me a LONG-ASS TIME to figure out this coveted strategy, and I honestly WISH I had the opportinunity to go back and save that time by hiring a mentor or coach to shorten the learning curve for me, but regardless, I DID spend that time. And thankfully, I did learn from the many, MANY mistakes that I made.
If you spend some time thinking about what your dream life actually looks like, can you honestly say you are living that life right now? And if not, what’s stopping you? What’s holding you back from just DECIDING that things will be different (in a good way) from here on out?
Don’t say it’s lack of money. Money is everywhere. Find it.
Don’t say it’s lack of time. There is more than enough time. Eliminate the time-wasting activities from your life.
Don’t say it’s lack of know-how/knowledge. Everything can be learned. Find someone to help you learn faster to get the results faster.
There are no excuses to not live your dream life NOW.
You don’t have to wait. There is no later. There is only NOW.
One of the biggest realizations that I made about myself (only about a year ago) is that I was wasting time just WAITING to be ready. Waiting to be “good enough”. Waiting to be deserving. Waiting until my ducks were all lined up in a pretty little organized row. Waiting until I FELT like I was ready.
No wonder it was talking me FOREVER (years & years!) to achieve the things I wanted, if I ever achieved them at all. There are actually many past dreams that I gave up on simply because I didn’t want to wait to have them; not realizing I could have them INSTANTLY.
I now know –
And what I want YOU to know and understand –
Is that you really can be, do and have EVERYTHING you want in life. You just need to make the decision, consider it done, and act accordingly.
I know. It sounds too good to be true, right? If it were really that easy, everyone would be doing it!
Well, that’s the thing. It’s not easy. At least, not in the beginning. The hardest part is believing it’s possible. Believing you can do it. Believing it’s not some woo-woo babble that is all wishy-washy and just HYPE.
Believing it’s real.
Believing it’s possible.
And KNOWING in your gut that it’s YOURS.
That takes work. Hard work. A lot of work!
But the good news is that you really only have to do it once. After that, you’re pretty much convinced and from that moment on you can manifest whatever the hell you want, in no time at all.
Start by taking the first step:
Believe in yourself. Believe in the possibility. Believe in miracles. Because they do exist and they exist for YOU if you’d stop being so damn stubborn and would just let them in!
Know that there is a reason you were put on this earth and it was NOT just so you could struggle for years and then maybe - MAYBE - enjoy a bit of freedom. You were put on this earth for constant freedom, starting now. No waiting necessary. You were put on this earth for MORE.
You know that, right?
Do you know you were born for more?
Then start acting like it!
You don’t have to wait. You don’t have to take it slow. You din’t have to get approval. You just need to show up and show up and show up, and SHOW THE FUCK UP. Every day. On repeat. And you don’t stop until you get what you want, whatever that may be for you.
I’ve tried a lot of different things to get what I want. Most of them didn’t work. Most were a big waste of time. Most made me want to scream because I was so frustrated by the fact that I was doing them and hating them so much!
Thankfully, there were SOME things that did work. There were some strategies that actually DID make a difference!
Want to know what they are?
Make sure you join me in the Biz Explosion Squad, where I’m sharing all of those strategies with you, and more: http://bit.ly/
Okay, okay –
I’ll share some of them now. Because I love ya. 🙂
COMMIT. Decide on what you want and commit to doing whatever it takes to make it happen.
WRITE. Every day. It doesn’t really matter what you write, as long as it’s in some way inspiring or entertaining and that you do it consistently.
ASK. Ask for what you want every day. In your journal, out loud, in your head, every way you can.
GIVE. Share a ton of value with your community. Help them because you want to help them.
SHOW UP. Consistency is key! Show up every single day, even if you feel like you have nothing to say. Show up anyway.
ONE BIG ACTION. Take at least 1 big action towards your dream(s) daily. Make it a BIG action.
HIRE HELP. Get people on your team to support you and make it easier and less time consuming to get what you want. (An assistant, a coach/mentor, a manager, help around the house, etc.)
Just know that what you want is possible for you. It’s MEANT for you.
And it will be yours the moment you decide it already is.
Take action, get help, be consistent, get what you want. Rinse and repeat.
You’ve got this!
