So I’m about to embark on a journey I’ve wanted to go on for the longest time. I want to be a life coach/wellness expert. The thought of being able to assist people with becoming better in any and all aspects of their life fills me with great excitement. I’ve always wanted my own business and I feel my skills are best suited to this area.
However, to do this, I have to overcome my limiting beliefs. Namely the belief that I can’t do it, no-one will want to pay me for my services, am I good enough to do this etc. Also, I have to do something I said I’d never do but will have to do in order to generate clients, and that’s advertise and sell myself.
This fire up my arse has been lit from becoming literally so tired of my life. I couldn’t get myself up in the morning. I thought ‘what is the point?’ And it wasn’t until I realised that I was tired of my excuses, my lack of discipline and commitment that I really made the choice to go forward with it. The thought that changed it all for me was ‘Fuck it. I may as well go in all guns blazing for the next year and see what I can achieve.’ I’ve spent all my twenties wondering, wishing and waiting and look what’s happened. Nothing. I may as well spend my thirties dedicating, doing and disciplining myself to get shit done.
My point? Feel the fear, say ‘fuck it’ and do it anyway. Take that step and see where it leads you. It’s going to be scary and there will be some failures, but those will be lessons and experiences for growth. I’m scared about this, and I actually feel quite vulnerable by putting myself out there. I’m not even sure what the next step is. All I know is that I’ve taken the first step and I will have to trust that the next step will be revealed to me.
The thing you’ve been thinking about doing: DO IT! Fuck it guys! Just go and do it. (I’ve sworn a lot in this post. Most unusual! Haha). We spend so much of our lives waiting for the ‘right’ moment that we fail to see that any moment can be the right moment. We make that choice. That power is in our hands. No-one else’s.
Be happy. Be you.
