It was the most invigorating and empowering week in my professional career.
Our coaching team was working together on something HUGE, a goal that has been on our vision board for YEARS.
I’m so proud of our tribe, because we FREAKING DID IT! We overcame the IMPOSSIBLE because we worked TOGETHER.
What I’ve learned is that when we try to accomplish anything on our own, it often fosters feelings of fear, inadequacy, and insecurity. Even though we WANT to accomplish something, it’s so easy to justify the excuses in our head, care too much about what other people think, and quit when it gets the slightest bit hard because we don’t believe in ourselves enough to push past the adversity.
Over the last few months, Jake and I have been mentoring several coaches who have a passion for health and fitness, and like the idea of coaching, but when it comes down to it, they have been one foot in and one foot out because of a number of reasons.
Some of them were nervous about posting on social media because they were scared of what other people would think of them. Some of them didn’t believe they would be able to find customers to help. Some of them were nervous to invite new business partners in to join their team. Some of them thought their life was already too busy and they didn’t know how they’d find the time. Some of them thought network marketing was a pyramid scheme and they were “too cool” for something like that.
But at the same time, they couldn’t ignore the desire in their heart. They WANTED to help others, they WANTED to make an impact, and LOVED the idea of making working out their job, of building a business that would give them flexibility to choose their own hours and work from home.
Jake and I saw the potential that each of them had to make an impact. We kept saying, “Gosh, if they saw themselves the way we see them for 5 minutes, they would grow a successful business.”
As an experiment, we through out this HUGE team goal, and ask who wanted to commit to making it happen with us. We had several people who opted in, and we set up a game plan. We helped to talk them through the things holding them back, set a deadline the goal needing to happen by, and then worked with them step by step to help them to overcome EVERY roadblock that came up.
As SOON as they changed their mindset, their businesses grew IMMEDIATELY. Friends, I’m telling you, the ONLY thing holding SO MANY of us back from creating a life that we DREAM of, are the thoughts we tell ourselves. We play it safe so that we don’t ruffle feathers, we don’t want to lose credibility in our circle of friends because we know the gossip we hear about people who have big goals and go against the status quo.
Here’s the truth though. You will NEVER BE judged or criticized by someone who is more successful than you. Read that again. It’s true. People who are going happy with their own lives don’t spend their time talking about other people. Time and time again it amazes me how scared we are of people who truly have NO BUSINESS in our headspace!
So how do you overcome those limiting beliefs? When you are part of a team who has the same goal, and you actually CHOOSE to engage and be a team player, when you say yes I’m IN to help the team, I’m IN to work hard and do my part, when you think OUTSIDE of yourself more often than you think OF yourself, that’s where the magic happens.
We were created to be in community with other people who can help us become the BEST versions of ourselves. Find a group of people who challenge and inspire you, spend a lot of time with them, and it will change your life.
It is such an honor to spend my days working alongside my best friend Jake Kuiper mentoring women who are committed to working on their mindset. They are committed to saying no to gossip and drama and saying yes to leaving a legacy of positivity.
This week I saw timid and nervous women become confident businesswomen who are living out of FAITH instead of FEAR!
