“It always feels too soon to leap. But you have to. Because that’s the moment between you and remarkable.”
-Seth Godin
Playing it Safe
After years of playing it safe in the business world, grinding away for someone else’s dream, I finally decided to take a big leap – an $18,000 leap. As a person who has always taken the safe and responsible route, this seemed like mid-life crisis level crazy.
To get certified as a life coach and study under the best, it would cost $18K. As a military family with no savings, this was A LOT of money. Financially it made no sense. I had a flexible, work-at-home position in the corporate world making more than I ever had. Why leave behind a job most moms would kill for and risk financial ruin?
Waiting for Someday
I was tired of feeling like I was meant for more. Tired of waking up each day dreading the work ahead of me. After watching my dad complain about his job daily, I decided long ago that someday I would find a job I loved – and it was time to stop waiting for “someday”.
I took out a loan, quit my job and went all in on myself. It was scary, but also exhilarating. I still haven’t fully paid off that loan yet, but I don’t regret my decision one bit. While I can’t be guaranteed success, I have the next best thing: mindset. I now know how to manage my mind to set myself up for success.
Mindset is the key to success
Mindset will make or break your success. It is the difference between seeing failure as a sign to quit vs. a time to learn. Mindset is practicing belief in yourself, in your skills, and your ability to learn and handle anything. I know I will succeed because I have the mindset tools to turn every obstacle and failure into an opportunity for growth. I’ve learned how to handle any emotion, work through any mind drama, and rebuild my belief when doubt sets in.
If I can learn this, you can too. Let me show you how. If you are ready to take the leap and go all in on your dreams, let’s get you set up for success with the right mindset. Book a free 30-minute session with me and get started right away on building a mindset of belief and self-confidence.
