I hope you had a wonderful holiday. Now we turn to what’s left of 2019. We’ve got 7 days left to this decade. Are you where you want to be? What do you want to change?

Before you scare yourself into believing you can’t successfully make those changes, stop. You can do it.

How do I know? Because I have proof. 

Last January, I was challenged to write a book. My goal was by the end of this year to at least have the stories that make up a book written. That’s part of what these weekly emails have made possible – yup, nearly there. So I decided a few weeks ago to make a list of days that changed my life.

The list was interesting. Especially when I compared to another list I had written on a crummy day. That list was a list of the times I had been courageous. So I could remember that I can do big things. Like start a business, run for office, quit or start important jobs, tell my truth and so on.

The lists were nearly the same. The list of days that changed my life had things on it that I did not control – the death of a loved one, an award and such, but 80 percent of the things were on the list of times I’d been courageous.

And all of that list was on the days that changed my life. My life changed because I made and acted on a choice. So what’s your big choice? What do you want? Here are some tips.

Tip 1. Get clear on what you want. What you want to do, how you want to feel, where you want to be.

Tip 2. Make your lists of what you have done before. You have been courageous. I promise. What did you start when others said no? What did you try anyway when you were scared? What did you quit even though others said it was a bad idea? When did you listen to your intuition anyway? 
 
Tip 3. Get support. For some of you, it’s talking to a partner, friend or boss. For others, it’s a team or a coach. For some of you, attending Don’t Await It, Create It might be just the thing. We’ve got about five seats left and one might just be yours. We aren’t changing the pricing til the 1st and code “LEADER” will make the cost as low as $497 for the weekend. Have questions? Just reply to this email.
 
To a brilliant finish of 2019 and start to 2020!
