What is ‘normal’?

I’ve got to admit that I’m sick of hearing the word normal – old, return to and new normal. How about you claim YOUR normal?

Although I’ll be honest, I don’t want normal, it sounds ‘nice’ but why would you and I want ‘nice’? When we can have exciting, toe tingling exciting and a little bit scary. A place from which anything is possible and everything is working out perfectly for me and YOU.

I want to expand and open up to the possibilities that are around me, no matter the circumstances and I want that for you. Yes, I want you to claim what you truly desire and create your amazing here and now. I don’t want you to worry about the what-ifs, the maybes or second guess what might be coming.

Instead, I want you to shine your brightest.

I don’t want you to wait and you don’t need X, Y or Z to happen in your business or around you. I’m typing this with a fierceness that surprised me and saying every word out loud with passion because you and I do not have to wait.

There is a pandemic I know but if not that, there would be something else. For me, I still would have had breast cancer and while the operations would’ve been sooner and in the same hospital (instead of three) – I still would have been on that journey.

If not a pandemic or breast cancer, there is life. Others rely on you, kids who need homeschooling (which I failed at, in case you think I’m some kind of wonder woman, because I’m not). There is still a website to work on, a programme to launch, and a service to deliver. You may still experience a laptop that gives up, a break in your internet service, or not being able to find your favourite pen.

There is no reason to wait.

Over the last six months, houses have still been bought and sold, and for the lucky ones like me, treatment has been provided. Kids have done okay, relationships have survived or not, but life keeps flowing. Stuff keeps happening. You have no need to wait. Take control and manifest your truest desires here and now.

Claim all that is yours and embrace every moment and opportunity. Be grateful for every shift and the tiny steps towards your bigger goal. Do not dumb down your goals or retract from your dream; this is certainly not the time to be less.

No matter ‘the’ or ‘your’ circumstances, whatever may or may not happen tomorrow, claim what is rightfully yours with all the confidence in the world. Use this time to create the business of your dreams, to experience the business of your dreams. Create bigger goals, revisit your vision and ask yourself, this is what I truly desire – mine wasn’t. No. The ten-year vision I’d written and previously aligned with last year wasn’t enough. It wasn’t true for who I’d become.
