Episode Notes

Let's get real in 2024. Let's stop looking at what we haven't changed as a way of judging that we're not changeable and let's get real about what you actually desire to change. If there is something in your life that isn't working that you've looked at over and over, what actions have you taken in the last year, two years, or three years time to change it? What's the motivation for the change? 

"Getting Real" is the energy of getting present with you and your life and what actions you can take to change them. I have watched the past few months at how many people are emotionally reactive and how we feel about a situation, but much slower on how or what is required to change it. 

Key Takeaways:

1. Don't judge yourself for staying where you are right now. Judging it doesn't change it, it will only make it grow and make you more reactive.
2. Give yourself permission and time to pause and ponder what is possible to change in the next year.
3. If you only look at what did change and what you want to change, but you don't commit to changing it, it doesn't matter. Are you committed to yourself enough to create the change in your life?
4. Be uncomfortable and willing to see what isn't working. If something is uncomfortable and our immediate response is to get comfortable again, we are only maintaining what we already have and are avoiding a possibility that could be had.

How To Stop Doing It:

• What future are you creating?
• Where would I like to go, where I like to be, what would I like to be doing and what would I like my life to be like during 2024?
• What is you actually want to create as your life? What is worth living for for you?
• What is it that you actually desire to change in 2024?
• What pragmatic step can you take to start changing whatever it is you would truly like to change?
• What can I add to my life to create the change?
• Now that you know what you can add, which ones are you capable of implementing, which would you like to implement, which would you not like to implement, and which are you actually going to follow through with?
• Are you committed to yourself enough to create the change in your life?
