Painful where you are, then decide NOT to stay

If it’s painful where you are, decide NOT to stay there – make the decision and act. It really can be that simple, and why I love this quote by J.P. Morgan.

“The first step towards getting somewhere is to decide you’re not going to stay where you are.”

Some of the most significant mindset shifts and changes in my business happened when I decided the pain was too much. Moments when I sobbed, ranted – screamed even, then made the damn decision and acted. Sometimes because what or who I needed appeared but always because consciously or unconsciously, I’d decided that enough was enough.

Do you recognise or relate to any of the following?

• I’m sick of chasing money
• I don’t want it to be this hard.
• I’m fed up with never enough leads and clients.
• I can’t face another day of crickets on my social media platforms.
• I’m exhausted and can’t operate my business like this anymore!

I hear you, and I’ve said those statements. I have felt that pain and fear, in and out of the business.

For example, when I finally gave up the search for our perfect home. When I said enough, I can’t look anymore – the home we now live in appeared on the market. It was over our budget (well over) and yet I made it happen, without a considerable amount of stress as it happens.

In the same way, back in August 2007, I manifested my life partner, following a very unattractive sobbing session in my office while saying, “I can’t do this anymore”. I can assure you it was not pretty and it took work to make myself look presentable for the corporate event I was attending that day. But with a new lightness, I went and sat next to my now-husband at lunch!

Painful no longer because I’d made a decision

In both cases, I decided that I was no longer willing to be in pain and would no longer give up my precious energy. And with the decision came relief. Meaning and without realising it then, I was choosing to live my best life, and concerning the house, deciding to live in the moment and stop worrying. And so it was painful no longer.

Where do you want to be?

What does success look like in the business, and what do you want it to feel like? How WILL you bridge the gap between where you are and where you want to be? What does living your best life look and feel like – what amazing adventures are you having. And more importantly, ARE you deciding to NO longer stay where you are, so you can fully experience this fantastic business and life?

If the answer is yes, I warmly invite you to…
