DON'T "See" It?

 

As we start this article, let's try to clear something up...when it comes to desiring/wanting something BETTER in and for our lives, do you sometimes feel that you DON'T See "It" (that better future) or is it more than you simply CAN'T See "It"?

I would suggest that both would apply because I believe that they go hand in hand with each other. Think about it by using this is the "real", physical world. Let's say someone using binoculars tells you that they see an elk that is beyond your natural ability to see due to the distance. The can tell you about it and describe it to you and may even ask you, "Do you see it?" or "Can you see it?"

Well, in THAT scenario, you can't do EITHER, right? You DON'T see it because you CAN'T see it. And, not to get too confusing, you also CAN'T see it because you DON'T see it. 

Now then, when it comes to your desired "better future", why is it that, often, we have a hard time visualizing that better future in our lives...SEEING that better future ("it")?

I was going to type the words, "Do me a favor" but, you know what? Saying it more correctly would be for me to type, "Do YOURSELF a favor" by spending some time asking yourself the question, "What is BLOCKING MY VISION?"

For example, in the above example, you couldn't see the elk because you didn't have the tool in your hand that would allow you to actually see just as your friend was able to see...the binoculars, right? So, WHAT tool, what mindset, what...._________ will you need/DO you need in order to finally "See" that better future? YOU must think and begin to fill that blank and, yes, there likely will be MORE than one answer. 

Here's the thing, friend. I CAN and WILL help you with this but...here's the kicker...you have to reach out and let me know that you'd like my help. I can't SEE your need without you providing the proper tool for me to do so. In this case, it's you letting me know. 

One of the easiest ways to do so is to join my community (link below) on Skool and introduce yourself. When you do, I will personally welcome you into the community and that is when we connect and you can tell me about your struggle and what it is that you desire in and for your life.  

 Yes, it's free to join and I'll get you started heading in the right direction just like I try to do with my blog articles, podcasts and videos.

And, yes, there will be opportunity for you to dive deeper if you so desire.

Bottom line: will you stay "blind" to what waits for you and your future? 

Once again,  the ball is in your court - it's your CHOICE.

DON'T See It? DON'T Want It? DON'T Get It?


 Yes, this is an absolute "FLIP" from the last article I shared with you which was: "SEE IT! WANT IT! GET IT!"  But, you know what? I know that, for many of you, you could easily put the word, "DON'T" in front of each of those and come up with what I have shown on the graphic above.

It's not so much that you "DON'T WANT" improvement in and for your life but you simply can't "See It" which also means that you just "DON'T GET IT". 

I've dealt with and struggled with this for years in my own life. I have always been one to have a big desire for something better. For example, I began this blog and my podcast back in 2009...yeah, that long ago! I had big plans on what I wanted to do and accomplish with my "Future You University" (my "umbrella" thought for all that I do in this area).

But, you know what? I did gain some traction over time but, overall, I've still come nowhere close to what I always planned to achieve. UNTIL...

I'm not going to go deep into this with this article but I did want to "touch base" on this side of the thought process and then, over the next 3 articles, I will address each of these 3 roadblocks that I have faced and that, I believe, many of YOU also face in your plans for a better you.

I will say this, though. IF what I'm describing fits you...describes YOU...then it is absolutely NECESSARY for you to join my FREE community on Skool, which is called, "Finish What You Start". I WILL help you "get over the hump" and FINALLY begin to see some positive movement in your life with your thoughts, ideas and plans for your better future. That's a promise IF you're willing to take that step. 

Sign up/join and introduce yourself in my community and I will connect and welcome you personally and we will go from there. 

 Once again,  the ball is in your court - it's your CHOICE.

FINISH WHAT YOU START (Join My Skool Community!)

BE SURE TO JUMP IN AND JOIN MY NEW COMMUNITY ON SKOOL!

 My guess is that anyone that reads this article has gone through the whole "New Year's Resolution" fiasco more than once. Am I right? You know what I mean...making BIG plans and maybe even declaring them OUT LOUD to a friend or even a group of people only to give up and never see those plans through.

As a matter of fact, data has been gathered that indicates THE date that marks when most people have done just that and, guess what? It's called, "Quitters Day" and, believe it or not, it is on January 19th.

Nineteen days??!!?? Wow! 

Many times we "laugh it off" and think nothing about it but...can I talk to you as a person? Can you (and WILL you) allow yourself to be totally honest with yourself on this? Here we go: Even though you may have "laughed it off" in the past, is there a part of you that realizes that you've allowed this to become bigger of a problem along the way and you understand that it is actually holding you back from a better future?

Often, in the past, I've stated that DAILY RESOLUTIONS are much more valuable than "New Year's Resolutions, and I still believe that 100%. It's a whole lot easier to make needed corrections on a daily basis than it is at the end of a calendar year.

So, bottom line, that's what my new community on Skool is all about. If you've been reading and/or listening to my recent episodes then you know that I've discussed the importance of taking a good look at the people that we spend most of our time with and really considering the impact of those relationships.

You've likely heard, many times, the idea of "You are most like the 5 people with which you spend most of your time".  I've mentioned that, you don't necessarily have to completely separate yourself from these people BUT you need to start connecting with those that will actually encourage you and cheer you on and NOT criticize you or make fun of you because you want to improve your life. 

Don't misunderstand the purpose of this community. It is NOT a place for a bunch of people to come together and whine. Nope! Not at all. But, it IS a place that will challenge you to step up and step out in making decisions for your future and then following through. YES, you WILL stumble and YES you will "fall" from time to time and that is where this group will be so helpful and encouraging.  

Step up and join and introduce yourself. Once you do, I will personally welcome you into the group and connect with you. I will continue to share positive information like this with you but will also be offering different ways to "zone in" and "focus" on some specific "next steps" that WILL HELP YOU MOVE FORWARD TO SUCCESS in the area that you pursue.  

Are you ready? If not, why not? Isn't it time to put away the excuses (usually disguised with what we like to call "reasons") and finally decide that it's time to actually FOLLOW THROUGH and "Finish What You Start"? 

Click on the link below and I look forward to meeting you there! 

And, as always..."Make it an AWESOME day! (Who else is going to do it for you?)"
