Courage and Action

​"If you want something you've never had, you must be willing to do something you've never done." -Thomas Jefferson

What's something in your life you want? A new job? A better relationship? More time? For me, today, it's a newsletter! 

But doing something you've never done means summoning courage. What are 5 things you could do to summon the courage to make that "something new" happen in your life? 

These could be small. Like, "Journal for 2 minutes during breakfast on how to make a shift," or "Reflect on 3 things I am grateful for before bed." 

Or they can be large. Like, "Share my resume with 3 colleagues," or "Pitch my idea to someone I admire and get feedback." 

Small or large, making that list of 5 things will point you in a new direction.

Ah yes, secretly there is a shift in here. You go from wanting, to doing. You go from focusing on lack to focusing on moving towards what you want.

Looking for some light inspiration? Here's a TED talk about trying something new for 30 days.

My challenge to you: Take regular action on one idea this month and post a reply or email me and tell me how it goes!

All the Best,
