THAT NEEDY SHIT YOU’VE GOT GOING ON? WHERE YOU’RE HOLDING ON TO NOT QUITE RIGHT INSTEAD OF INSISTING ON AWESOME? LET’S STOP THAT
I want to talk to you real quick about that needy shit you’ve got going on. You know –
The GRASPING you do.
Where you hold on.
Desperately.
(Embarassingly, let’s face it)
To something that’s just, well –
No.
Actually.
And you tell yourself –
It’s not so bad! They’re not THAT high maintenance … whingy moany … lacking in EVERY FUCKING THING you demand in a client, a friend, a lover, yourself.
Oh, and when I say you demand? In your dreams, baby, because while you SAY you want the best, are the best, work with the best, do the best, ETC, what’s actually happening?
So let’s talk, you and I, let’s sit down, you and I, let’s CHAT, you and I, let’s get REAL, you and I, let’s get our shit TOGETHER, you and I, and when I say you and I oh TRUST me I do mean both of us, because never forget:
Any lesson I pass on to you is one I’ve first WELL kicked my own butt on first 😉
And coming from that KINDA tender place of having learned my lessons hard, in business, first, with money, next, in fitness, at one point, and now in life and LOVE, I’m gonna tell you this:
When you let go of the needy shit, you feel a DAMN fine sight better. You can BREATHE again. You can hold your BACK up, and fucking SMILE. You look hotter too, for SURE.
And also?
(And you might wanna write this one down)
When you stop holding on to the not quite right I guess it’ll do for now it’s just how it IS and it’s all I can GET shit –
You make way for your SOUL people to find you.
And I was thinking, today, about this, today, for oh so many areas, today, and I was listening, today, to messages, today, from my BADASS clients, today, all of whom basically just check in or get on a call with me to tell me how awesome both they AND I are, and then what they’ve launched | sold | created | unleashed, oh, and “thank you Kat, you’re the best!”, and I was thinking about how AMAZING coaching is these days, and then I was thinking back to some years ago when it felt –
Ugh.
A drain.
Hard.
Frustrating.
And I thought (and perhaps you’ve said this too?! But I’ll wager you don’t really mean it!), I thought –
“I HATE coaching! I’m NEVER DOING IT AGAIN!” *stomps foot and storms off*
And now – ?
I have fucking STANDARDS inside’o’my STANDARDS baby.
And oh my heaven and earth holy GOD I can tell you that when you start working with your SOUL people life is so.damn.FINE!
This don’t just apply to business, you understand 😉
So here’s what I want to tell you.
Today.
A message.
Today.
As my fingers fly quickly over my keyboard to get this out, wine at the ready, friends about to arrive at this beautiful wine bar, a live performance ahead, for this evening’s festivities, but I can NOT turn into that until I turn this out for you:
Most people will die having never fulfilled their big dreams or goals. Most people will end their life overweight, in debt, having worked too much and played too little. A life full of opportunity constantly delayed. A life of putting off what could have been because of work, or tiredness, or overwhelm, or general busyness,
One of the most conundrum-y things in the purpose-driven life, I find, is accessing the discernment to know when to push and when to pull back. For those of us (which is all of US!) who are your A-type kinda driven sort of guy or gal, the type who makes shit happen, does what it
Your fixation on how to get or have the money you want has distorted your connection with purpose, and it’s time to step back – and claim what already was. When you started all of this, I don’t care if it was a year ago you first woke and realised, ‘fuck! I’m meant for more
I love a good list post, don’t you? A nice lil 1-2-3 punch of what to do, how to do, what to know, what to do with it, why you’re this or that or the other thing, and how to BECOME the thing, but now! Actually I hate a list post, most of the time,
