An observation: the true meaning of courage is … “to be afraid, and then, with your knees knocking and your heart racing, to step out anyway - even when that step makes sense to nobody but you. That's not easy. But making a BOLD MOVE is the only way to truly advance toward the grandest vision the universe has for you." (O magazine article, 04/01)
Ask yourself:
"What am I afraid of?"
"How has this fear held me back?"
"How has this fear kept me playing a smaller game in life?"
To experience our greatest potential, we must acknowledge, or act as knowing, that fear is simply a door through which we must pass in order to gain the courage to live fully.
Here's your ACTION STEP:
Write down 3 things you REALLY, REALLY, REALLY want over the next 100 days. (You have permission to THINK and PLAY BIG!)
Did you do it? Great! Now email me the 3 things you REALLY want to accomplish in the next 100 days: Honoree@CoachHonoree.com
P.S. More from the "O" article: "It's true that when you dare to step out, speak up, change yourself, or simply do something outside what others call the norm, the results may not always be pleasant. You'll fall down. Others will call you nutty. You'll be so exhausted that you'll want to quit. People won't like you all the time. But the alternatives are even scarier: You might find yourself stuck in a miserable rut for years at a time. Or you could spend too many days languishing in regret, always wondering, what would my life have been like if I hadn't cared so much about about what others thought ..."
