What’s Your Why?
What’s your “why?” – who you are and who you want to be
You may have a vision in your mind, every day if your anything like me, of who you want to be. Being who you want to be, living the life that you want and living on your own terms. Sounds great, right? Unfortunately, it may be your current self that is conflicting with the self you desire to be. To me, there is bad and there is great. Somewhere in between falls good, or what I call average. I would rather go down in flames then safely live my life as an average person.
Think about your everyday life and your routine. Are you doing anything to become the person you so desire to be? Remember without a change there can be no change. Wishing for it isn’t going to work. Waiting for it sure as hell isn’t going to work. Working for it is where you will find your answer. The very decisions that dictate your everyday like is what defines the good from the great. Don’t be confused with the idea that working for it is a short-term thing, or will be east. Working for it is a every damn day grind that you embark on and go to bed thinking about. So, if you’re thinking about quitting already, go ahead and be on your way to average.
Inside of every single one of us is potential. I am no more gifted then you are. What I have that separates me is motivation. Not only motivation but a chip, more like a 2-ton brick, on my shoulder that will never be satisfied with average. I chose to make efforts and changes every single day to use my potential to the fullest. I REFUSE to waste the gift god has given me. I just couldn’t do him like that.
You see, I have an undying passion for compassion. I feel what others feel (and not like “oh your kitty died I am so sorry type of compassion). I cannot and will not separate myself from the feelings that connect me to myself. I tried it once because I shoulder so much of everyone’s sadness and problems that it was weighing me down into depression. This is because I would only feel. Yes, I felt compassion for this person, but my actions did not coincide with my feelings. Over the years I have found a way to stay engaged with my passion and harness it for a beneficial purpose rather than a self-destructive purpose. Which led me to my career in personal training.
Helping others love themselves and find the happiness that I was missing for so long has given me my “why” and showed me my reason to live. I used to wake up every single day just sad. I couldn’t understand why. I often wondered if I would ever have a day when I was truly happy and not have to put a smile on to just fake it. Now, I get to wake up every single day with a goal and a purpose. Coaching my elite group of ladies who may be on a different path but ultimately have the dame goal, self-love. I didn’t start this career for money. I have and still work two other jobs. I started this career because I finally found a place where I belongs and could flourish in my “why.”
Let go of your current self that is holding you back. DEFINE your WHY because…
Its either day one or one day? I’ll leave that to you do decide.
