Do you feel like some people continuously knocks your ideas down? If so, you are not alone!
Last week during one of the coaching sessions, I saw tears in my client’s eyes. She shared a brilliant idea to her partner about switching careers and finally starting to pursue something that has been her passion for years. It was different from what she has been doing until now, but her inner voice couldn’t resist it anymore. She was ready to get outside of her comfort zone! FULL IN! But her partner didn’t take it seriously, trying to convince her that she should pursue her current career further. Sounds familiar?
Well, that left her upset & unmotivated and made me writing two conclusions from that.
1. Don’t let people kill your dreams and plans. Usually, their talks come from the inability to think and dream big, scarcity and lack of knowledge. Don’t blame them. Take their opinion, analyze it and keep on going with your thing. YOUR thing, not anyone else’s. We all have only 24 hours/day, so you have a choice to walk with wise people who lift you up and build up more wisdom. Or you can become a companion of fools, and your life will unravel. The choice is yours!
2. You can talk yourself into your dreams, or you can talk yourself out of your dreams. But I am sure that NOT running your own race is probably another one of the biggest things that keep people from their destiny. Because you can’t run somebody else’s race! Stay yourself, be authentic, listen to your intuition, keep dreaming, aiming high and check reality at the same time. I was always told – be ambitious yet realistic…I follow it, one step at a time..
And how about you? Share your wisdom!
