Here’s How to Have It All!

Let’s get serious here and OH so up in your face for just a QUICK moment –

Most of the stuff you’re spending your time on? Complete BS. Filler. Fluff. Stuff you CONVINCE yourself is meaningful, or important, or a must, because hey! SOMEBODY who knows SOMETHING (you think! Surely?!) said so. Stuff that makes you feel a little warm and fuzzy because the completion of it is the completion of, well, something. And surely doing something is better than doing nothing?

Except of course that THAT is one of the most commonly perpetuated myths of our Age of Productivity and except of course that deep down and MAYBE even close up, you know –

Nup.

It’s not.

And the truth is, no matter how little you actually stop and remind yourself of it, that you 100% KNOW what the ACTUAL stuff that matters (for you) is and yet you REPEATEDLY AND STUBBORNLY AND DOWNRIGHT STUPIDLY CONTINUE TO PUT IT OFF.

For when you’ve done all of the other stuff (even though you know it’s just so much FLUFF) …

For when you’re in the mood …

Or inspired …

Or feeling brave …

Or ready …

Or, quite simply, for when you actually remember.

Here’s a thought and one that I hope slaps you in the face as much as it did me when I first realised it –

Just because you HAVE a destiny does not mean you get to live it. You want that good stuff that you’re BORN for to come to life? Then YOU need to take ownership (now!) and YOU need to make it happen. NOW, if not sooner.

And here’s the other thing –

Also a shocker, for certain –

You do NOT get to create your dream life (business / body / anything) by trying to stuff it into the cracks and crevices of an already over-crowded and largely UNfulfilling life.

Doesn’t work that way sister.

You want to bring the stuff that you SAY matters to life, the stuff you KNOW you’re born to do, let the world see your TRUE gifts and get your own ass into flow and happiness never mind wealth a result?

Then guess where you need to focus?

Uh-huh.

Have you ever noticed that it’s the most PAINFULLY obvious stuff that is also often the most profound? I don’t know if this is why we think it’s okay to ignore it, to push it away, to give it scant regard as we continue plowing on relenteslly in our quest to BE and DO and HAVE. All the while, if only we stopped to look around and admit it, moving FARTHER away from our path of true alignment simply by virtue of the fact that with every not QUITE right (or VERY not right) move we make we turn ourselves more and more into a person we never wanted to be.

Were never meant to be.

Don’t even really know how to be!

And are never ever EVER going to be HAPPY being.

So, a little lesson for today.

A REMINDER.

A DREDGING UP of the stuff that lies within you that you ignore, make unimportant, try and kid yourself you’ve ALL the time in the world for while at the same time living with an underlying TERROR that if you’re not careful you might very well miss OUT.

You know what you’re here for.

You know what your message is.

You know what you VALUE.

You know what you would regret with ABSOLUTE horror should you find out your life were to end today and you had to admit that you’d ignored or diminished it.

And you know, damn straight, and no matter HOW much you try to convince yourself otherwise, whether you are right now living ANYWHERE close to alignment with who you’re meant to be, how you’re meant to do business (and life), and what actually matters to spend your time on.

And let me tell you –

These ideas, these bursts of creativity, these upswells of energy that bring you to life as you imagine what things could be like if it could REALLY be that way?

Those things fade.

They die.

Often unfulfilled.

Like passing clouds they go on their way, never to be seen again.

And those relationships, those memories you want to create, that time you want to take?

One day it’s too late.

THIS IS HOW THE COOKIE CRUMBLES.

And you do NOT get to pretend otherwise, not for a SECOND longer.

And that calling? That NEED you have within you? That FERVOUR to share something with the world?

With every day that passes where you don’t step into it you by default step AWAY from it. You lose confidence. You lose motivation. You question whether it was even there in the first place, or whether you just made it up.

You are NEVER standing still beautiful, so if you’re not moving CLOSER to your dreams today?

You’re moving further away.

THIS IS HOW IT IS.

And you have NO more time left to keep living the wrong life.

So be freaking HONEST with yourself for just a day (to start!) won’t you.

Be bloody BRAVE for once!

[pq] Have the God darn COURAGE to live like you knew you couldn’t fail! [/pq]

To VALUE the stuff you say matters.

To value the MESSAGE you have to share.

To value the RELATIONSHIPS you want to grow.

To value yourself, and your right to be here and be you, enough to realise that you do NOT live your life based on fear of time or fear of money or fear of what people think or fear of making it or fear of ANYTHING but instead you step the fuck UP and you start living like somebody who believes in herself and in her GOD given right to live the life she was born for.

If you think you can do that –

If you think it is POSSIBLE –

If you think it’s what NEEDED –

Then get your act together sister.

You’re better than this.

You deserve better.

You know it.

And IT IS UP TO YOU.
