229/ The Consistency of Consistency & when its hard with Ruby Cherie
The REAL secret of getting your success & happiness NOW: What is consistency? What is CONFIDENCE? HOW do you get to that feeling you crave – that “outcome” Heres the real secret… You know when you nail a good week of nutrition & exercise and you’re feeling good? WHEN YOU DO THE THINGS YOU SAID YOU WERE GOING TO DO when you show up for YOU?? when you dont want to do something bu you do it anyway? That’s the happiness you’re after. THats pride, that's satisfaction THAT IS YOU WINNING! It’s not about the end result, it’s about the journey. Humans are driven by FORWARD ACTION in PURSUIT of something To CAPITALIZE on that, GET EXCITED in the pursuit itself… see THAT as your goal. not the goal itself. WHEN YOU DO HARD SHIT… THAT is what makes you feel empowered & confident. When you stop the comparisons and thinking you should be already perfect at new things. LIKE CALM TF DOWN – this is where you get all overwhelmed & want to tap out. When I was challenging myself to LONG RUNS (I didn’t like running that much BUT I freaking LOVED the feeling of getting through it & the end of it knowing I did it) I was like, one more lap, one more km, one more lap after the one more lap I BROKE IT INTO MINI PIECES as you should with YOUR visions. STOP THE GDAMN IMPATIENCE already… it is NOT serving you. We are meant to move toward a goal WHICH IS WHY we are forever chasing BUT….We don’t have clear vision; it’s just literally running away from our own tails & shadows... not toward the sunshine. AWAY from ghosts and pains, not toward the FEELINGS WE DO WANT - because what are they? we don’t even KNOW how to feel anymore When you move in the right direction, we release chemicals in our brains to keep us excited and on track. THAT IS HOW DOPAMINE WORKS So why aren’t you celebrating your EFFORTS? BELIEVING in yourself? Get. Rid. Of. Your. Timeline. Focus on the process, not the outcome. Find enjoyment in the day-to-day. STOP SKIMPING OUT ON YOUR LIFE EFFORT: celebrate it, embrace the feeling. You will make the process more enjoyable & realise that you can be happy, daily, right now, as long as you’re moving toward.
