Does being stuck, suck?
Are you moving backwards? Is it time for a breakthrough? When you look back on this summer, past year and on your entire life will you smile?
A smile that’s a combo of satisfaction, part gratitude, part “holy shit I can’t believe that happened“.
A happy cocktail of joy, amusement, exhilaration and astonishment? Are you ready for a breakthrough summer, year and lifetime?
It won’t be all rainbows, butterflies, and perfection. But you have the choice to step up your game, figure out your life’s purpose and rock the heck out of your world. Big-time.
You can challenge yourself to become more, create more and achieve more. Badass style. Remember the world does not benefit from you hiding your badassery.
As your resident Limitless Living Strategist and JOYologist, let me share some ways to mix up the potent elixir of joy and breakthroughs.
What is behind those walls when we tear down the road blocks and blast through the barriers?
1) Take Action!
Dreaming, scheming and writing ideas down are starting points. From there, you need to kick it into A-C-T-I-O-N.
There are generally 2 types of people in this world.
Type 1: Those who have ideas, think about them, and stop there.
Type 2: Those who have ideas, get busy, get to work and make them happen.
Are you ready to upgrade from Type 1 to Type 2 and totally transform your life?
Start now. When you have a juicy idea, write it down then immediately take an action towards making it a reality. It could be calling or e-mailing someone, writing a business proposal, asking for something you desire (perhaps a hot date), planning a trip around the world, or buying a pet unicorn (to ride on your trip around the world, obviously).
Whatever, just put the wheels in motion and you’ll be racing towards a kick-ass life.
2) Do What You Love!
“Never continue in a job you don’t enjoy. If you’re happy in what you’re doing, you’ll like yourself, you’ll have inner peace. And if you have that, along with physical health, you will have had more success than you could possibly have imagined.” ~ Johnny Carson
Here’s Johnny! Happiness, self-love, inner peace, health, wealth, success?
What more can I say? Yes, please. Get after it. Go!
3) Ditch the Fear Monsters!
Fear can be our friend. How you handle it is your choice. Welcome it, embrace it and allow it to inspire and push you into greatness. Whenever you try something new, something that has the potential to be step up into the life you dream of, you may feel fear. It’s totally normal. Everyone goes through it. Acknowledge it and make a choice to move forward.
Remember, if it doesn’t challenge you, it doesn’t change you. It’s what you do next with those emotions and feelings that will shape your future. That’s the key for shattering any fears.
Don’t let fear control you anymore. Tame that beast, make it your friend and ally, and watch your life rocket right off the awesomeness charts.
4) Apply Yourself!
Reality: there’s no clear-cut shortcut to success. Hey, if you’ve found it, send it my way!
Wickedly successful people usually have one great commonality. They do the work with intention. Some people have natural talents and abilities which makes things easier, but every single one of them has put in effort to get where they are now.
Putting our energy into something gives us a chance to glitter, sparkle and make a mark on The Universe.
*Side note: I believe that “hard work” doesn’t actually have to feel “hard.” What if “working hard” is an old paradigm that can now be changed? What if work felt easier and more rewarding? What if “hard” was a choice and putting effort into your dreams and desires started to feel light? Ready for more ease?
Here’s the secret though: consistent passion will create a positive feedback loop. You start putting your heart and soul into your “work”, and great things will start happening in your life. Your blog gets more hits, you get more sales and make more money, you have a million dates lined up, whatever. You will feel accomplished and amazing.
You like the way you feel and want to keep the momentum going because you have more excitement, joy and dedication. Soon you’re rocking and rolling down Breakthrough Street. It’s an easy equation.
If you put in the work, persevere, improve, learn, take chances, and believe in yourself, you can achieve miraculous things. You really can. Yes, YOU!
This can be massive, monumental, powerhouse time in your life. Some people are going to rise to the top, and some are going to be left in the dust. What will you do?
Make this YOUR summer, Friend! Step up your game, make your mark in the world and get prepared to smile.
Life’s too short not to shimmer and shine. Make it a hell of good life.
