We have spent months and years creating this roadmap, this plan to achieve “THE” goal.
Year after year, we kept resolutions, worked for it intermittently while still managing studies, work, family, relationships, and a lot of stress & fear that came with not doing that one thing.
That one thing which could change our life.
Change the entire story,
The entire destiny,
The purpose that we were sent here for,
The meaning that it will give to our life and lives of many.
Then why?
Why are we here just imagining it.
Why are we liking the idea of planning about it and not doing anything about it?
Why we are comfortable to sit with it and enjoy the feeling of “having a plan and we are safe.”
When will the time come to actually live it?
The time will come when we will hold that beautiful idea and start working for it every day.
That’s when we will truly live it.
But in this entire process,
Why do we stop?
What is holding us back?
Is it fear?
Is it a limiting belief system?
Is it laziness, procrastination or what?
Well, in this blog, I’ll remove all the blocks for you to DO IT SCARED.
- All the things that stop us are just mere feelings
Did you know? On an average, a human being thinks 60,000 thoughts a day!
Some of them are repetitive and some of them don’t even matter.
In those thoughts, there are some thoughts that make us fear.
Whenever you start thinking of that goal, that fear will make you stop, so that you crawl back to your old self.
But isn’t that harmful for you?
Being the same old you?
Where there is no growth?
What if I told you that you can live your amazing life and let that fear stay there?
What if you don’t act on your fear, keep it as it is and work on your goals?
At least you’ll be happy to have achieved something.
Even if that fear of yours becomes a reality, you’ll be happy that you lived your purpose, you lived through those fears and you triumphed in the end.
Isn’t that liberating?
- These feelings may have a backstory- Your limiting belief system
You know, there was a time in my life, where I had these two conflicting thoughts.
Thought Number 1- Why am I always alone?
Thought Number 2- People don’t include me.
You know, these two thoughts kept coming to me again & again.
Let’s talk about my two actions.
Action Number 1- I love spending time alone
Action Number 2- I rejected my friend’s plan to go out or have dinner
Do you see a difference or dichotomy between what I’m feeling and what I’m doing.
In all these, my limiting belief was,
I’m defective. I’m not enough.
Maybe in the past, I must have had experiences where people didn’t want to hang out with me. It doesn’t mean that I was wrong or defective. Maybe those people chose something else. This reinforced a thought in me that I’m not good enough and that no one will be with me. Hence, I should stay alone.
Finally, this aloneness today became my bliss. I became comfortable with it because I was so used to it.
Similarly, we carry some limiting beliefs when it comes to achieving something. Become self-aware by noting down your thoughts daily and asking as to why you feel such a way.
You might get your answer along the way.
- Keep it short and sweet
Even if your goal gives you the highest amount of fear or stress, the fear of failure or the fear that prevents you from starting,
Then start small.
Be it fitness, career, relationships, work, or anything.
The more you break your goals into the size of a dice, the more achievable and doable it will look.
It will not overwhelm you; it will not weigh you down.
Things will be much easier.
Always remember,
Once things are clear in your head, they become clearer in reality for you to act.
These feelings will keep coming and going, but you have to keep one feeling constant, and that is, no matter what happens, you are there for yourself, God is there, and the entire Universe is there.
Lay your trust.
And you will certainly carve the biggest success of your life.
Till then,
See you 🙂
