Stop making excuses

I might come across a little "mean" in this email blog, but believe me, it is all things that you and I need to hear. We as humans in this day and age get so busy that we often stop dreaming, stop pursuing our goals, stop investing in our marriages or relationships, stop working out, stop spending time with God, and stop being the best version of ourselves. What we don't give up: spending too much time scrolling social media, playing online games, and watching hours of tv. Then 5 years pass and we wonder why we still haven't lost the baby weight, still live in a 2 bedroom apartment, and our marriages are falling apart. I told you this was going to be a tough one to bite off. But if you keep doing the exact same thing that you are doing right now…will you be where you WANT to be in 5 years? I've been listening to Gary V's book, "Crush it" and he is soooo blunt about how he was able to build his "empire" to a multimillion dollar company. He says over and over in the book, and his youtube videos that most people think they "want" something, but they aren't willing to put in what it takes to get where they want to go. Today is about reflection and dreaming. I want you to let your heart soar. Think about where you want to be in a year, in 2 years, in 5 years. Then make a goal to get there. Create a vision board with those goals and dreams on it so you can see it every day. Write it down on a notebook every morning to remind yourself of where you are going and how you want to get there.

Speak it out-loud to God so that not only HE hears it, but YOU hear it too.

I would love to help you break down your goals and come up with an action plan on how to get there--and/or have you share your vision board with me. Here's mine:
