Hello and Welcome March!
March is considered the “lucky” month because of St. Patrick’s Day.?
Do you celebrate this day with your friends??
I don’t. Not for any reason in particular, I just don’t – lol.
BUT
Let’s talk about this idea of “luck”.?
Google defines luck as “success or failure apparently brought by chance rather than through one’s own actions”.
When I was a child my mother used to tell me I was a lucky kid because I won so much stuff. I remember winning a walk-man, or a free lunch, or winning a hole in one in mini-put golf etc… In those situations – yep, luck had a lot to do with it.
BUT
As a grown woman who has dedicated hours upon hours to studying, learning, and teaching my craft – luck had nothing to do with it.

As a grown woman who has taken risks in business, failed many, many, many times and just kept trying – luck had nothing to do with it.
And as a grown woman who has been told “You can’t because you’re a woman/Black woman/too young/too old etc…” and doing the thing anyways – luck had nothing to do with it.
In fact, if someone tells me that I am a lucky woman because of the different successes that I’ve earned I tell them – luck had nothing to do with it.
A decision. Sticking to that decision even when I didn’t want to or didn’t feel like it. THAT is why I experience success. Risking ridicule, being talked about, not fitting in – THAT is why I experience success. When I stopped allowing the opinions of everyone else matter more than my own – THAT is why I experience success.
What about you??
What decision do you need to make, be held accountable to and execute in order for you to experience the success you know you were born to experience?
Everything you want will happen after you DECIDE.
What’s your decision?
If you would like to book some time to talk to me or my team about how to make whatever you have decided on a reality, please feel free to book yourself in for some time:??https://calendly.com/jenslay/1-hour-counselling-coaching-sessions
