In episode 53, I introduced the fear archetypes and talked about figuring out how fear manifests for you. Two weeks later, in episode 55, I explored the path to changing your mindset about fear and adopting a new set of core beliefs that would help you step outside of your comfort zone. This episode is the third and final piece of this puzzle: taking action in your life! It’s time to stop thinking about the things you might like to do someday, and start taking real steps in that direction.
I don’t want this to be too vague, though, so this episode is going to be very practical! I’ll give you seven concrete actions that you can take right away to get yourself moving into the life you’ve imagined. You’ll need to tune into the episode to learn all about each of these actions, but here’s a quick preview (or refresher if you’ve already listened). Ready to learn what these seven actions are?
- Claim your target.
- Find your “why.”
- Create your plan.
- Form your truth club.
- Stop comparing.
- Eliminate excuses.
- Stay encouraged.
Don’t miss this empowering episode! It’s time to finally move past your fear and create a life you’ll love, and this episode and the seven action steps will help you do exactly that.
