Before the Doing, The Being

Oh man I wish it didn't take me so many decades to learn this! But I got it now and I'm preaching it to anyone who will listen. .

BEFORE THE DOING, THE BEING!

.Why?

Here is a lesson from my own life... Recently (thanks to taking a big break from social media perhaps!) I realized I have spent most of my adult life trying to accomplish NEW goals under the same old limiting beliefs. Ex: Trying to grow my business while believing it isn’t possible to be wildly successful as a businesswoman AND be fully present for my kids and husband.

Trying to get in better shape while believing my best body is behind me. Trying to save money for a house while believing I’ll never save enough for the house I want. Trying to do a new thing on my YouTube channel while believing all my followers just want the old thing. The examples go on and on.

Trying to accomplish your goals without getting real about what your inner mind is really believing is like chaining yourself to a wall and then attempting to run full speed ahead only to blame yourself for not trying hard enough to get where you want to go! .

This is more than madness. It’s ridiculously cruel to the inner little girl who is just trying to feel safe and is already terrified she isn’t good enough to live her dreams.

For so many Januarys is was like this for me....one part of me going full steam ahead on so many good resolutions and inspiring goals, while another part of me crossed her arms and dug her heels in the sand. One part me went to work on doing, doing, doing more, while another part of me clung to the same old resistance and fears. Which one do you think normally won out come February?

You know these two parts of yourself, too!?

It’s only September now, but sometimes I find myself already looking forward to NYE so that I can wipe the slate clean and dream for a better year than my perceived current reality. But what if that as a pattern of the past and I can alter my perception of my current reality to match my desired circumstances, all by BEING?

Try being with your current self today and begin to hear all the contradictions we speak over ourselves all day and see if the shift could start now, in September, without any holiday hoopla.

Let me know what you discover and uncover!
