195. The Breakthrough I Didn't Know I Needed


Listen Later

I'm coming at you today from Las Vegas to talk to you about our hidden fears and understanding what is keeping us stuck. I'll share what my breakthrough was, what we're going to be doing now that I'm on the other side, and how you can cause that breakthrough for yourself.

Confession: I hate social media. I didn't realize it made me sad to say that until I had this breakthrough. This week, I joined my girlfriends for a birthday celebration. As we were talking about what's bothering us, I said, "You know, everybody is so great on social media and I don't even want to play."

Maybe you can relate to that. Social media has changed. It's just absolutely become this different animal. What I realized is my heart was actually broken by social media.

My background is tech. I was a very early adopter of social media. I loved reconnecting with friends. I changed people's minds about certain social issues there – it was just this beautiful connective space.

I enjoyed being on Twitter. We know what's happened. We know the vitriol that exists there. We know people don't listen to each other anymore. And it absolutely broke my heart.

I thought it was really important to share that with you because, obviously, now my perspective has changed. What I think is possible is going to change. What I want to see from social media, what I'm going to want to see for myself and for my team, is going to change.

In my example, I had made social media bad and wrong. And the underlying truth there was that it had broken my heart. I was scared to invest more time and energy into it because it might do it again.

I want you to think right now of something in your life or business that you know is a block. Maybe it's eating healthier and exercising more or reading more books or doing a little bit more research … something you know you've had in you for a while, but you're postponing.

Once you're at the truth of what was causing the block -- the truth behind the lack of action, the truth behind running away -- we can push through it. It's very different for me to say, I hate it versus I've actively chosen not to participate there because I'm working on XYZ. In this exercise, what I'd like you to listen for is:

That's for other people. I can't do that. That's never going to work for me. I'm not good enough to do that.

Once you can see that fear, look at what actions can you take right now. I will always point you to the fact that action is the only bridge between dreams and results.

From my heart to yours, don't let your old beliefs and other things that you learned when you were little continue to run your life. We don't have time for that. We all know the world is burning. We all know your gifts are yours for a reason. Breakthrough so the world can benefit from what you have to offer us. We need you.
