I woke up yesterday—Sunday morning. Usually, I think, write, edit, and then type my Hope Weekly article for Linked In. Yesterday as I was sipping my delicious coffee, I thought to myself, I don't feel like writing today. I was 100% ok with the thought, emotion and decision to accept it all.
Let me recap last week. I FINALLY achieved a goal that I have had since 2011. I created my first online course entitled, "How to Master Self-Care."
It was one of the toughest weeks of my life. I created the essential post-it note that you can literally hang on the wall, and it was full of my thoughts. A complete download of all my thoughts. My vision, my dream - a mind dump. Then the next phase of moving all those thoughts into a mind map with structure and ahem....discipline.
There were moments I wanted to give up.
There were moments where I thought, who wants to hear this, learn this?
There were moments where I questioned WHY I was even doing this.
Isn't it interesting how our habits of thinking can interfere with our creative flow! I had to have a self-chat and coach myself through the week.
The most significant element of posting today is to let you know I hear you. I see you. I feel you. Why? I am the same as you. I am allowing myself to 'feel the feels' of COVID-19.
COVID-19 has taught me to reset. Do me 24/7. I am on my schedule, no one else's schedule. I can do what I want and when I want and how I want. Being an entrepreneur has such privileges. I also decided to draw the line in the same and play full out on Team Deb. I will stay laser focused on my goals and aspirations and drive in my own lane. I like me. I like how I lead. This is coming from my confidence muscle.
What do you WANT to do?
What do you WANT to say?
The time is now. Come and join me living in the NOW. It's glorious.
