I live in a world of infinite possibilities and you do too.
You may not think you do, but I assure you for everything you want to create, be, have, or do, there are an infinite number of ways to get there. The only thing holding you back from the many paths is you.
Now, this isn’t a blame game where I tell you it’s all your fault, because honestly it’s not. We have been taught a lot of things that aren’t true and the idea that there are only a handful of ways to get from point A to point B is but one.
It’s time to learn something new.
It’s time to see the bigger picture and all the amazing ways your dreams can come true and to allow the forces of the Universe to work for you, not against you.
It’s time to break free from your monkey brain that is running 100 miles a minute in order to make things happen for you.
It’s time to accept the truth that there are an infinite number of ways your dreams can come true.
I’ll use myself as an example.
When I set out on this path to becoming a life coach, I did what any responsible and logical person would do. I googled how.
I found a ton of information on various programs, certificates, coaches, professionals, organizations, books, etc. that were sure to help me get from where I was (in a job I hated) to where I wanted to be (and incidentally where I am now). I decided that the fastest way from point A to point B would be to find a program, get certified, and start my practice.
It seemed simple enough, but I quickly learned it wasn’t.
I had some road blocks that were popping up all over the place. For 2 years I was struggling to find the right program at the right price, with the right focus and I was desperate to get on with my plan.
No matter how hard I tried to make this one way work, it didn’t. The programs were too expensive, not close enough, too long, or just plain off. And while I was given every indication that this was not the way to do it, I kept pushing. I kept trying. I kept forcing it to be that way because it had to be, right? I mean let’s be honest, google is rarely wrong.
It was the thought that there was only one way to get there that was holding me back. That’s it.
I couldn’t see another way. All I could think about was how to get the money, find the program, and get certified already.
What I ignored was my innate talent, knowledge, and expertise that I used every single day. I was using it with co-workers, friends, and family members. In fact, I even had my Masters in Psychology and still didn’t believe it was enough.
Once I was willing to see another way and entertain the idea that I hadn’t exhausted all possibilities, my eyes were open and I was ready to leap. I started my coaching practice within just a few months of this realization and have been working at it ever since.
The same goes for you.
In fact, when you take your hands off the wheel and let go of the one track mind of ‘how’ your dreams will come true, you allow the Universe to work its magic to bring you amazing opportunities you never thought possible.
And by simply brainstorming other ways you can reach your dream, you put energy out into the world that opens the door to some truly magical experiences. The things that happen as a result will blow your mind. They will seem too good to be true, but I promise they aren’t. They will be the result of you opening your mind and your heart to the infinite possibilities that lie before you.
We are only human and as such, we can only imagine a few ways our dreams can become reality and if you are like most, you are likely looking at the logical or realistic paths to what you desire.
Action Step: Today I want you to do something a little different. I want you to grab your journal or a notebook and write your big dream at the top. Below that I want you to get creative and think of all the amazing ways your dreams can come true. Try to quiet the logical mind that is sure to try to get in the way. Write them all down and then lean back a bit and watch the magic occur in your life. I promise you will be amazed.
