Today we are going to talk about how to stop wishing and start doing. How to start taking action towards what it is that you want in your life, business, home, relationships, whatever! This past week I was surrounded by thousands of amazing people that kept saying they “wished” they had thought of an idea like my interchangeable sandal idea.. & how they “wished” they could make more money… they “wished they could have the success I have had”, and so many more “wishes”. I used to have wishes. Now I have GOALS. The truth of the matter is that they could do what I have done.  You can do anything you set your mind to. We can all have the wishes we have in our hearts and minds turn into reality if we want them bad enough. I read this quote recently “You are very powerful, provided you know how powerful you are.” – Yogi Bhajan

That is quite a statement. We all have that power within us. We just have to push past the fear to get there. The fear of failure, defeat, and embrace the possibility of amazingness! Many years ago I had all these great ideas. I just did not know what to do with them. Or how to turn my idea into a reality. We didn’t even have a computer (imagine that) & the internet was just beginning. I had no idea where to start & my fear just stopped me from moving forward. My fear of losing money we did not have, of failing miserably, of the unknown… Fast forward a few years, and after a very tragic loss I decided it was time to do something. I wasn’t going to live a life of regret. I was not going to wake up one day and thought what if? Those dreams and wishes were just waiting to be brought to life. I finally started moving towards those dreams and then something amazing happened! I started taking action. One step, one fraction at a time. The idea started to turn into a reality. It is amazing what happens if we just begin. Everything starts a reaction. The thoughts you think that turn into beliefs, and the actions you start taking to get you there.

Do you know people that are less intelligent than you that are wildly successful? You know, those people that you look at & think really?!? How the heck did they do that? Why cant I do that? There is a secret.. do you want to know what it is? It really is something…The secret to their success is they took more action than you. That is it. They moved past fear, and just went for it. You can apply this to anything and everything. Do you want to lose weight? Organize your life? Grow your business? Stop thinking small and start taking action. Turn your fear into power & know that you can make it happen. Fear holds us back from living the life we deserve. The life we dream of.

So, first things first..

– Stop wishing and start writing down your dreams, & wishes & turn them into GOALS

– Visualize your dream coming to life. What does that look like to you?

– Invest in yourself. You are the product of what you know… so if you don’t know, find someone who does (a coach or mentor) They will save you years of spinning your wheels and get you where you want to go so much faster – believe me! (I wish I had known this a long time ago)

– Break down your goals into smaller obtainable steps. This will keep you out of overwhelm and keep momentum going.

– Take action daily towards your goals, even if its tiny baby steps. Every step you take is a step closer to what you want.

Dream BIG. Take action, and you will begin to write your own amazing story. I would love to hear what your dreams are. If you could answer the question… “My life would be amazing if …”  This could be anything. Whatever you see that you want if your life. Even if it seems unobtainable! Make it come from the heart.  I cant wait to see what you all have to share!
