I THINK WHAT STOPS PEOPLE FROM BEING GREAT AND PROSPEROUS is:
FEAR. LACK OF SELF ESTEEM. DON’T BELIEVE IT’S POSSIBLE. NO COMMITMENT. OLD PROGRAMMING. LIMITING THOUGHTS. NOT TAKING RESPONSIBILITY. By the time we are 2 we are told thousands of times “NO!” “Be careful.” “That’s not safe.” Then we go to school and we are rewarded for being controllable, for not rocking the boat, for being in the status quo, for not standing out. Later we get a job, and we are rewarded for doing what we are told, for following the rules. So unchecked, and on autopilot we just show up barely in our lives and we have a very small comfort zone – low tolerance for risk. We live in fear, right?
How much has your fear cost you over the last year – what about for the last 5 years? Are you willing to give up the story, the excuses, blaming, judging, playing it small cause big scares you so much – something in you feels safer being unhealthy, being small – instead of living your magnificence..
I really relate to letting fears stop me. I have sabotaged myself over and over whether it’s relationships, or money, or a great situation – I’ve found a way to make it not work. I’ve been given opportunities to speak on the platform with the biggest names in personal development and I stopped myself. My excuses made so much sense, do you know what I mean? I have lived many years of my life closed down, fearful, small, blaming others, being right, and safe, and not risking it all. I’ve been resigned and cynical and unappreciative, and angry or depressed. I have not wanted to get out of bed or not wanted to return a call or do anything toward my dreams. I’ve forgotten my dreams and how do you speak or coach others when you’re in that deep of a funk. I’ve had all the tools, made millions and still I just couldn’t get myself together. It’s a great time in an odd way – cause it tenderizes the heart, it creates compassion and humility, and an ability to identify with the people I work with.
I’m here as a coach and blogger to interrupt old, dysfunctional thoughts and beliefs. I am here as your potential, as your passion, as your big fat yes – your whatever it takes inner voice. If you’re open to it I’m here to mirror your sense of play, wonder, awe, wahoo! I know what it’s like to not believe fully in myself – to listen too much to my fears – to have fear of success or failure – to procrastinate… so please subscribe to this feed so you hear from me often, Ok?
I find that most people have beliefs that hold them small and they blame others or circumstances for what isn’t working in their lives. When asked about abundance…. their thoughts are that there isn’t enough, they believe in lack, limitations, don’t feel deserving, want to be right about not having enough, believe that having money is bad or unimportant. Many feel that the world is unsafe. Money takes too much time, effort, trouble, hassle… Unchecked these beliefs become reality and the power is easily given away. Does that sound like you or anyone you know? If you’re honest it’s all of us. We sabotage our greatness. It takes diligence, discipline to re-train the mind and heart so that you are truly aligned with your purpose, your vision, your desires and the huge legacy you are leaving behind. Live full. Die empty.
