Morning Motivation: All signs point to YES
/Something happens when you fully commit to your dreams. It’s not quite like the Paulo Coelho quote,
“And, when you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it.”
but close. First, you have to more than want something. You have to be willing to lose everything in order to reach your goal. As in both hands and both feet off the wall as you reach toward the higher ledge. As in ALL IN and open to all the pain, heartache, embarrassment, panic, anxiety, shame, blame, fear, and everything else that goes with being obsessed over a single event or purpose.
People will think you are crazy. You do it anyway.
People will tell you no. You ask anyway.
People will warn you’re going too far. You keep going anyway.
People will say you are unrealistic. You dream bigger.
People will claim to worry about you. You remind them why it is important - and keep doing it.
People will push their fears and jealousy on you. You ignore it all and just. keep. going.
For me, this week has been all about doing more and acting bigger. It’s been about actions I can take to make things move faster, how I can be bolder, ways to test my resolve now so I can figure out how to stop my inevitable self-sabotage.
It has meant friends introducing me to friends and offering their services and sharing that they are proud of me. It means connections from out of the blue and experts all the sudden showing up in my Facebook feed. It means business trainings coming in like Flash so I can turn around and make money when before it would take months to go from idea to sales to delivery.
It may not be everything is just falling at my feet, but when I keep my eyes open, it is pretty close.
