Happy Friday!
On our journey this month to master our commitment levels – be it over or under – I want to share a huge AHA moment for me.
If you want to hit your goals you MUST 100% understand that it’s progress, not perfection and consistency that wins the game.
If you look at some of the most successful people of our time – Jeff Bezos, Elon Musk, or any professional athlete you’ll see a pattern.
They had a vision – a dream – a goal.
They put in the work – over and over and over – again.
They mastered the art of resilience – failure after failure – they got back up.
They never let go of their dream – even after those personal deadlines we missed – over and over again.
They knew their WHY – what will keep them going during the tough times – and there are always tough times.
One step in front of the other. Take the stairs one at a time. Get pushed back? Start over.
I preach the above A LOT. So, don’t hit reply and tell me I’ve told you this before – lol – because I know I have.
You WILL find success when you understand where you are over committing – wasting time on shit that doesn’t serve you AND understanding where you are under committing – giving up just inches before the finish line.
Focus your energy where the action needs to be.
Stop wasting time – we all have the same 24 hours in a day. 8 hours for work, 8 hours for sleep – and 8 hours for YOU. What are you using them on? Netflix with a beer and bag of chips? That’s productive (yes, that’s sarcasm).
Not that you shouldn’t take time off and enjoy the things you love to do – but you can’t complain that you aren’t getting what you want if you aren’t willing to do what you need to do.
You WILL make shifts in your life when the pain is strong enough – it’s the rock bottom effect. When you can’t stand it anymore, you’ll change. I’m saying it doesn’t need to get to that point.
In 12 months, you can completely change your life. I mean completely. Or…you can enjoy the status quo – the choice is yours. Just don’t complain about the status quo if that’s what you chose. #ToughLove
Maybe the Courage Summit is for you – if you are seriously ready to open your mind to new ideas and change. I’m here for ya – grab a spot on my calendar if you need to flesh things out.
Have an awesome weekend!!!
