Can you believe it’s July already?
This year is sure flying by and now is a good time to evaluate where you are in relation to your goals.
What do you want to create before the end of the year?
And what’s holding you back from doing just that at this very moment?
For so many women I speak with it’s that tiny little voice in their head that keeps telling them that it’s selfish to go after what they really want.
For others it’s they are secretly seeking somebody else’s approval to move forward with what they really want to be, do or have in their lives.
So many times we’re being told that wanting things for ourselves is selfish or that we can’t have what we want.
Honestly, how often have you heard this growing up?
Well, if it were that easy, everybody would be doing it.
Or
Who do you think you are to do this?
What this does is it breeds doubt and when doubt clouds our minds, we move right into worry and then fear and from there it’s just a tiny step to give into the fear and then it’s over.
We talk ourselves straight out of what we want to be, do or have.
We give up because we start believing that it’s not meant to be, that we’re not capable of doing it.
The truth is you don’t have to seek permission from anybody to follow your true heart’s desire.
All you have to do is be brave and say YES to you because true desire is never selfish.
There’s a reason why you have this desire burning inside of you.
It was given to you because this is what you came here to do in this lifetime.
All you have to do is make a decision to step into your vision and take action.
Yes, it’s scary, I hear you.
Yes, it requires you to step out and become a bigger version of you.
And it’ll also show you what you’re capable of doing.
What you’re capable of achieving.
And what you’re capable of GIVING.
When you shine your light brightly it inspires others, and not only does it inspire them, it also gives them HOPE.
So, let me ask you this.
Why are you withholding your great gift from the world?
Isn’t THAT a selfish thing to do?
You see we got it all wrong.
We were taught that wanting things for ourselves is selfish when the exact opposite is true.
It is by following our true heart’s desire that the path to our purpose unfolds.
It’s by saying YES to you and what you want that you become a brighter light in this world.
What do you really want for yourself at this very moment?
And if you’re not getting it what’s stopping you from saying YES to you?
We’re about halfway through the year and right now is a great time to pause and evaluate if you are where you want to be in your life and business.
And if you don’t then change it because you have the ability to do so. You can course correct, you can take a different action that will get you a different result.
Trust and believe that if you have the vision, you can absolutely make it your reality.
