Standing In Cement?If you’re going to drive across a bridge, it’s best if there is a solid foundation on both sides. The same happens when crossing a symbolic bridge to the next chapter in your life. Having a solid foundation on both sides is the goal. But what happens when you get stuck in your foundation before you cross? It’s common for folks to build such a solid foundation in their current life that it becomes difficult to move forward. You are stuck in your comfort zone.If you’re happy, the bills are paid, and everything is okay - what’s the incentive to shake things up?Well -The only way to live the life you’ve always wanted is to believe in your WHY and take your first step as soon as you can see the other side.Yes, it can be scary. However, staying where you are for the rest of your life is also scary.Keep what you have and get what you want. That’s the goal.   Learn more about your ad choices.

Accepting Your PassionNo matter what activities that you do in life, the goal of every road you travel should lead to happiness. After all, we don’t pursue ambitions so that we can be unhappy - right?With that in mind, your journey will be more pleasant and the outcome more predictable if you:1) Begin by accepting WHO you are right now. It’s okay to desire change, but you begin where you are today.2) Clearly understand WHAT you are doing when you are authentically being YOU. The core of who you are is not likely to change. More likely, you are seeking to get back to your real self.3) Decide when you will start living your passion day-to-day. There’s no need to wait. It begins the instant you choose.Accepting your passion and deciding to make it a day-to-day reality will make today the best day of your life.  Learn more about your ad choices.

Opportunity DiscriminationDo you have too many options and are having a difficult time choosing?There is a concept called "Opportunity Cost.” It is simply the value gained or the value lost in deciding what opportunities you will pursue. I tend to focus on another question entirely -"Does an opportunity provide the fastest and most direct path for me to reach my goals?" It's easy to look at almost any opportunity and justify a path, especially if you are being persuaded by someone else. It’s more difficult to make a choice.If you want to break free from a stalled life, you must eliminate anything that takes you off course and stay focused on your goals.

Listening to Yourself FirstGrowing up, I was an energetic, enthusiastic, and excitable child. I never let a day go by without challenging something - usually with my mouth. Thanks to those responsible for turning me into a good person, I learned a valuable lesson when they said-“Listen twice as much as you speak. You have two ears and one mouth for a reason.”You’ve heard that before, and in today’s fast-paced world, knowing when to put a zipper on your lips is critical. But I’ve also learned to take that advice to a new level to get what I want. I call it going “Dark.”When you go “Dark,” you have chosen to listen to others less. Yes, you are still listening, caring, and interacting with those around you. You’ve decided to listen to yourself twice as much instead.The world we live in today makes it seem as though it’s impossible to get what you want without others. There are endless hours of interacting, Googling, ZOOMing, Texting, and more. It’s as if we’ve lost permission to think and do for ourselves. We can’t move forward without the social approval of those around us when the exact opposite is true.Something extraordinary happens when you give yourself space to listen to yourself more. Your creative mind and talents flourish—your positive energy rebounds. You feel more present and find more meaning in your life. Going “Dark” makes your life brighter, and good stuff happens.When you take the time to slip away into your own space, you develop into the person you were meant to be. Removing yourself from the buzz of the world gives you a new kind of energy. And you do it without anybody’s permission or without anybody knowing. When you emerge, everybody will notice that you are different. They will listen when you speak, seek your advice, and be attracted to you in a new way. Who knew that listening twice as much as you speak works even better when you listen to yourself twice as much as you listen to others?
