I must admit that I’ve had a rough week. Being someone that loves to stay motivated and encouraging to others, it’s hard to accept those moments when I go from being the encourager to needing the encouragement. I realize that many times, especially for those of us that desire to be “Strong Leaders”, we can often neglect ourselves and the need to be refilled after we’ve continued to give.

One of the most important things for me in a situation like this is to have a Strong Mentor who can lead and guide us without being biased. Someone that knows your strengths and potential but will challenge you in those areas where you need to grow while boosting you with pure confidence that despite what you face, you will succeed!!

It’s a great role to stand as a mentor, and it’s an honor when you find those that are willing to invest in you as you adapt to the role of the Mentee.

I’ve discovered that it’s okay to know that you don’t know it all. You haven’t quite figured everything out yet, and you still have a lot of growing to do. But within all of this, it is extremely important to not let these moments hinder you from accomplishing your goal, but instead, surrounding yourself with those that can esteem you in the time of need!!

Do you have a mentor? If not, you MUST seek one ASAP to help you down your journey towards success! There will be moments where your emotions take over and you get into the “feeling” of where you are at that moment.

Find a mentor today to help you remain focused, maintain a level head and step up to confront the challenges of life boldly without any sense of pity, knowing that each battle you face, you will overcome despite the tough times!!

I recently had an epiphany, where I realized that with all of my “big vision thinking”, I had a tendency to talk about the things that I was “going to do”, but realized that I would rarely take action on getting it done. Being a Cali girl, and growing up in Los Angeles, I experienced tons of people who always “talked” but could never show proof that they “acted” on any of the things that they hyped up.  It was as though they felt better because of sharing some ideas they had…but still they never lived them.

Why is it that we don’t take action? Why do we continue to hype ourselves up all to feel disappointed and unproductive because we suddenly realize that we arent’ making progress in our lives and we tend to end up in the same position this year that we were in last year???

I’ll tell you why….It’s because we NEVER TAKE ACTION!!! And the more I begin to consciously understand this, I see that there are many reasons why we tend to get paralyzed in the midst of the process from our hopes and dreams to our current reality.

#1) Many of us fear failure and therefore think it safe to just stay complacent in our current position rather than really giving things a try.

#2) We tend to feel like “now is not the time”, and wait for perfect timing or perfect conditions – (which don’t exist)

#3) We let other people talk us out of our personal ambitious, and allow them to place their personl opinions on us, which tend to be totally out of character for us, causing less progress and more frustration.

If you’ve been faced with this scenario, and feel as though your life isn’t making progress then I will share with you a few tips that can begin to make you feel as though you are finally making progress.

#1) Write down the vision that you have for yourself and the end result that you would like to see happen in your life.

For example, if you say that you see yourself opening up your own daycare and you’ve always envisioned the parents coming through the doors to drop their kids off, and you gave them a sense of comfort to know their child was in good hands…take the time out to write a clear, detailed description of what your daycare looks like. What color paint is on the wall? What does it smell like when they walk in the room? What are the first things they say when they enter their classroom? What kind of songs do they sing???….Go into serious detail!!

#2) Write down the goals that you’d like to accomplish and the things that you’d like to pursue, and what it will take for you to get there.

To reference the daycare, what goals do you have for the center? How many children do you see occupying the facility? Go into detail of how you want it to run and what you’d like the end result to be!

#3) Break the goals down into milestones that will be small steps that you can take that will lead you in the direction of accomplishing that task.

i.e., If you know you want to open a daycare, determine what courses you need to take and register for them. Determine what licenses you need and the location you want to have it in and start making contacts to find a building and get your permitting.

#4) Avoid Distractions. If you have for example, a goal to work on your website today, and you know that your phone is always ringing, learn to turn the phone off for a few hours and finish a task and once you’ve gotten it done, come back to it as you will feel a sense of accomplishment.

#5) Confront your fears and do it anyway. If you have personal insecurities, fears, and worries that arise and make you wonder if you will succeed or not, address those emotions and talk yourself through it by encouraging yourself to give it a try anyway, knowing that you will only discover the outcome  by taking action!!

In order for us to really see our lives making progress, we “MUST TAKE ACTION”. It iw very challenging to see our lives being in the same place today as it was 5 years ago, but unless we do something about it, we will find that we will remain in this vicious cycle until we enforce change!

Make a decision today to do something daring and risky that will lead you closer to your goals and your dreams. It’s time to take action and “GO AHEAD AND GET IT DONE!!”

“You cannot change anything in your life with intention alone, which can become a watered-down, occasional hope that you’ll get to tomorrow. Intention without action is useless.” – Caroline Myss

I’ve finally gotten my hands on Tim Ferriss’ book “4 Hour Work Week”! I’ve been eying that book for the past 2 years with immense curiosity as to how someone could work only 4 hours a week and make a sufficient living. Like Curious George, I have prowled the aisles of many library’s, purchased several e-books, visited many websites and joined several programs in hopes of discovering a similar path for myself. The more I searched, the more I believed that it is really possible to work smart and not hard, and live a life doing what you love without money ever being an issue.

Many people have been so burdened with the norm of working a 9-5, and putting their dreams and hopes on hold because people enforce that we must own up to our responsibilities and have a “real job”. Today I question, what is a real job? Why is it that the things that bore the heck out of people and add 10 extra years of misery to their lives are the only ways that people will validate it as being “Real”???

Why is it that when we are kids, we are asked that Million Dollar Question “What do you want to be when you grow up?” and If we say an Astronaut, Ballerina or the President, we are told “You can be whatever you want to be”! However, when we are so called “grown up”, and begin to talk about our dreams and fantasies of becoming…., we are told to “get real”, or told to let go of those childhood dreams and grow up and get a Real Job! What the heck is that???

After pondering these psychotic hypocrisy’s that are excepted by most as “that’s just the way it is”, I want to challenge that mediocre thought and say “NO it’s not!”. The truth is, you can be anything you want to be…a circus clown, a gymnast, a world tour guide, a cameraman for the 6 o’clock news, a celebrity, basketball player….whatever!! You can be anything you want to be. The key is taking ACTION to bring those goals to life and being the one and only person that believes in those dreams and goals despite what others around you may say.

I’ve seen far too many people talk about “When I retire……I will do…..”…………Yeah right! Half of us may never make it to retirement age because of all the stress our boring, unchallenging mundane Jobs have caused us. Please forgive me for my forwardness, but it baffles me how we can devote so many minutes, hours, weeks and years to something that we have absolutely no interest in. Why do we do that??? Because we were told that this is apart of the “Real World”…..Who in the heck came up with that lie???….

Life is what you make of it and each and every one of us has a yearning or desire for so much more. So why then, do we put off our desires to accept the lies of a false reality that someone tries to make us own??? Why aren’t we bold enough to step outside of the status quo, and go against the grain to create our own lives, our own destinies and form our own futures???

The truth is that many of us wait for “perfect conditions” before we ever step out to own up to what we really want. We keep thinking that “now isn’t the time” to enroll in that class, sign up for that program, take that international trip or write that book. We say “maybe next year” the time will be right, in hopes of the delays pushing off those fears that we are too chicken to confront and face. We procrastinate in hopes of ignoring those nagging feelings that say “go for it”, “quit now”…and all of those other bold reminders that let us know that we still have the power in our hands to change our destinies.

If that has been you, I want to say that NOW IS THE TIME!!! There will never be PERFECT CONDITIONS, enough $$$ or a house free of kids. Now is the time, to take the plunge, explore that dream, and act on your visions! NOW IS THE TIME to put you on the schedule and say Yes to your future and No to a life of the LIVING DEAD!!!

NOW IS THE TIME!!!!!!………………….(okay, can you hear me screaming this by now???) Good!!!

Today’s message is to push you into realizing your dreams by TAKING ACTION and knowing that NOW IS THE TIME!!!

Enjoy!
