Inspiration and motivation...for anything really....

I am constantly being inspired by others and there amazingness, the humanness of all of us.  Everyday there are people making decisions that change their lives, taking on projects that they only dreamed of or never even thought possible and when they come out on the other side of it, they are brand new people, full of a confidence and radience and empowerment they did not seem to possess before.  Each step into the unknown, into a new adventure is both scary and extremely exciting..if you are reaching for a goal...the greatest peice of advice I have ever heard..if you are reaching for a goal and you get scared out of your mind..THAT is the time to double your efforts because that means you are about to accomplish something even better than you believed possible.  Now..this fear could manifest as pure fear, or as procrastination, or indifference, or as a feeling of 'I don't want to do this anymore', or the thoughts of this is too hard, I don't have enough time, it isn't working how I want it too, etc. Remaining focused on the OUTCOME through the whole journey helps you to remain creative and ACTIVE in your process.  Knowing that there will be bumps in the road, knowing that you can overcome anything that stands in your way, knowing that you are and always have been destined for success..and I mean really KNOWING in your deepest self is all that it takes to reach out and grab ahold of any and all of your dreams.

Two of the biggest fears EVERY single human being has are fear of not being enough and fear of not being loved.  This is a FACT people..so if you have those feelings and fears you are not alone!  They manifest in sooo many ways it is mind boggling(ya..if you haven't noticed already..my spelling is atrocious).  I love the definition of courage as..being terribly afraid but doing it anyway.  This can apply to entering a relationship, becoming a parent, loosing weight, changing old habits, moving, crossing the street,  changing jobs, working out, bungy jumping,touching a spider, telling the truth, traveling, eating something new, accepting responsibility, etc.

In order to be successful you have to know BEFORE you start that you are worthy just by the pure fact that you were born, that you are loved from within your very self.  That you ARE whole just the way you are this moment, that you, like every other human being are capable of ANYTHING..anything.  That you are a second away from changing your life, every second of the day, that there are no mistakes..just opportunites to change your mind or learn something profoundly useful.

It is incredibly useful to find out why you want to accomplish something..what you are striving for..what your outcome will be and how it will feel once it is accomplished.  WRITE it down!!!  This is sooooo powerful, it is like pulling your outcome out of the universe and heavens and making it REAL.(want even more power?  Stand up and call it out as loud as you can..seriously crazy business..but it works!!)  You can use this magical script...as I like to call it... to remind yourself in times when you don't feel motivated or have lost your drive..it is a reminder to you(and your nervous system) that you have made a fantastic commitment to an outstanding future!  This can be applied to ANYTHING you want to do..anything..be it working out, starting a business, being a better person/mother/wife(or the male counterparts ;))..anything.

from my heart to yours...
