Close your eyes. Take a long, slow, deep breath, and just for a minute or two, think about something you accomplished in your life that you are really proud of. Just sit with that feeling of pride. Let it marinate. Think about how you felt when you finally did it.Feels pretty great right?
Now I want you to zoom out a little further on that mental image. Go back and look at your journey to achieving that goal.
There’s a pretty good chance that whatever it was, you went though periods where you were pretty uncomfortable, perhaps even a little overwhelmed, where you had to persevere, and you didn’t give up, even when you might have been tempted to.
Do you remember that?
Instead of sitting back and waiting for things to happen, you took action, AND IT PAID OFF!!!
YOU did that! YOU stepped out of your comfort zone, YOU were focused, engaged, committed to the cause, and YOU kept going, YOU quietened that inner critic, YOU took a risk, YOU worked hard, even when you were tired, even when you might have wanted to quit, even when it was inconvenient, YOU kept at it – and IT WORKED.
Sometimes when you’re looking for motivation and inspiration for your future goals, you don’t need to look much further than your past successes.
YOU have accomplished great things before and YOU can accomplish great things again; but it requires ACTION. Not tomorrow morning, not this weekend, but right NOW. It requires you to reclaim control of your life and get to work.
Are you ready for another win? Are you ready to feel that sense of pride an accomplishment? Want to shout from the rooftop “I did it!!!“? Well if you’re serious about changing your life, and you’re ready to make this the best year of your life, then get up, get started, get uncomfortable.
NOW is the time, THIS is the place.
