Failure is the point where you give up, not when there's room for improvement! 

For months and months after I had recorded the content for my online program,  I couldn’t watch myself. I couldn’t bear to see myself in action and deal with potential shame, self-criticism, self-judgement, and focussing on how it could’ve been better.

I knew that I would judge myself, rather than acknowledge how far I’d come and what it actually took for me to create and deliver such a transformational program (if I do say so myself lol)

I was in fear of seeing myself;

“What if”;

🖤 it doesn’t make sense

🖤 it’s confusing

🖤 it doesn’t offer enough value

🖤 I sound silly

🖤 it’s too basic

🖤 it’s not basic enough

Aarrggghhhh!!! And this from someone who lives and breaths personal growth, conscious awareness, mindset shifts, self-compassion, worthiness, and the deepest levels of self-love… 

And I knew that I put my heart and soul into my programs and so if it wasn’t good enough, my m...

As a society we have become so discomfort avoidant!

We turn the temperature up when we’re cold 🥶, and down when we’re hot 🥵 

We stay in jobs that offer security, in exchange for going after our hearts desires ❤️‍🩹 

We avoid relationships in an attempt to not be emotionally challenged, or stay in “comfortable”relationships for the same reason

We use fast food, alcohol and drugs as a way of dealing with pain and discomfort, rather than leaning, and allowing it to guide us…

We stay at home rather than putting ourselves in social situations that might challenge us in some way 🥺

So let me ask you… what is your greatest fear when it comes to experiencing discomfort? 🤔

What is your disaster scenario if you were to let yourself feel the depths of your emotions in order to know them better?

✨Do you see it as a waste? (conditioned belief)

✨ Do you believe you can’t cope? (conditioned belief)

✨ Do you fear judgement or criticism? (conditioned belief)

How often have you heard yourself saying "I'll be happy when..."

I have more money ❌ 

I lose weight ❌

I have my dream job ❌

I’m in my ideal relationship ❌

Or something similar.... Some other sentiment that suggests that happiness is to be found somewhere outside of yourself, by DOING something or ACHIEVING something.... As though you're unable to be happy with yourself and your life as it is today.

It's this mindset that has us convinced that we need to do and be more, in order to be enough. But the thing is that as soon as we hit that next goal, we want more!!! And so the dopamine hit of achieving our goals and overcoming obstacles is short lived, and we are back into the striving and wanting, and the feeling of dissatisfaction.

How can we expect to travel through life like this and be happy...?? It's contradictory!!! We must make a choice to be present in our life today, and to recognise what we do have and how far we'e come on our journey; through the high's and the low...
