#246 What are You Willing to do? Embrace Challenges, Make Sacrifices, and Achieve Your Dreams

The Full Weight of Joy: Self-Awareness, Purpose & Faith for Entrepreneurs, Professionals, and Those Who Know they Were Made for More

We all have something we want…it may be a bigger house, new car, or maybe more help (housekeeper, meal prep, childcare…). We may have dreams of starting something new, doing something different, going on an adventure! What would it take for you to actually GET it? Many times the difference between a dream and a wish is a plan. We get to get curious and ask ourselelves…

WHAT AM I WILLING TO DO TO MAKE THIS HAPPEN?

This simple question can be life changing. Because if the answer is nothing…I’m not willing to do anything -girl put that dream to bed and don’t feel guilty for it. There are things in my life that i have said I wanted and then when push comes to shove…I realized i wasn’t willing to work for it…which means I really didn’t want it.

Then there are things that I am willing to get uncomfortable, take action, and make sacrifices knowing that the outcome will be worth it! Today, we are diving into this question…let’s do this!

Ready to take action?

1. Book a Call with Me!
2. Set a time on your calendar right before our call to take a moment and breathe. This is the only preparation you'll need. It's that easy!
3. Join the call and allow your heart to be heard and seen.

Let's dive into three essential steps to make any dream come true:

1. Step Outside Your Comfort Zone: Life doesn’t happen in your comfort zone. It’s where growth gets stunted. Embrace the discomfort, the “what did I just do” moments. You’re not alone in this; many women are navigating this zone too. Share your journey with a friend for support and encouragement.
2. Make Sacrifices: Sacrifice today’s comfort for tomorrow’s success. This might mean less Netflix and more time reading or working on your goals. I did it as a single mom with toddlers, balancing school, work, and an internship. Know what you’re not willing to sacrifice too—like your core values or essential self-care.
3. Persist Through Failure: Setbacks aren’t the end; they’re part of the journey. I had to embrace being an entrepreneur, learning from failures and pushing through. Know yourself, your purpose, and let God guide you. Success comes when you align your actions with who God created you to be.

Key Takeaways:

• Pursuing Meaningful Goals: Focus on dreams and goals that hold substantial meaning rather than fleeting desires. This requires introspection to discern what one genuinely wants in life.
• Self-Reflection and Effort: Engage in self-reflection regarding your aspirations and consider the effort required to achieve them. Not everyone is prepared to invest the necessary effort, and it's crucial to distinguish between authentic desires and superficial wishes.
• Stepping Outside of Your Comfort Zone: Growth occurs when one ventures into the discomfort zone, which is filled with new experiences and opportunities. This zone is often marked by uncertainty and fear, yet it is also where personal development takes place.
• Making Sacrifices: Significant goals often necessitate sacrifices, such as time, comfort, and financial resources. It's important to identify the sacrifices one is willing to make while ensuring self-care remains a priority.
• Persisting Through Failure: Persistence is critical when encountering setbacks. Failure is an inherent part of the journey and should not dissuade individuals from pursuing their goals. Cultivating resilience and maintaining commitment is essential.
• Self-Awareness and Authenticity: Understanding one’s purpose and aligning actions with personal values and identity can lead to a more fulfilling path toward objectives. Success is more attainable when operating from a place of authenticity.
