THE POWER OF TAKING THE PLUNGE


               If  you  aren't  happy  with  what  you  currently
               have, the answer then is to begin to lean-in to
               the  choices  that  say  yes  to  the  fulfillment  of
               your dreams and goals. In order to accomplish
               this, there really is a leveling of pride that takes
               place. In order to grow and become all that you
               can be, you’ll need to first take responsibility for
               who and WHERE you are.

               Nothing good was ever born out of excuses, so
               if you’ve ever said things like, “This is how I
               was raised,” or “I can’t help it — I’m just doing
               what  I  know.”  I  want  to  challenge  you  to
               absolutely  ban  these  excuses  from  your  life.
               You  don’t  have  to  remain  comfortable  with
               terrible circumstances. You can take the sign off
               your  bathroom  mirror  because  yours  doesn’t
               have to be the saddest story ever, but it’s up to
               you to make that decision. Living your best life
               is your own choice.
               It is one of the most liberating things you’ll ever
               do. To stand on the wreckage heap of your own
               broken promises, unfulfilled commitments, lies,
               masks,  failures,  and  mistakes  and  place  your
               signature  of  ownership  on  the  whole  mess;
               that’s huge! It gives you a starting point, a place
