I Can Do Hard Things

Day 13/75 Days of Podcasting & Day 20/75 Hard!

Are you looking for opportunities or choosing to look away?

Sometimes opportunities are smacking us in the face and we still choose to not see them. Yes, we choose to avoid them. Life gives us so many opportunities to better ourselves mentally, physically, spiritually, etc, but we have to choose to see the opportunity. Opening our eyes to what the world has to offer us is what leads us to discovering our true purpose.

Day 12/75 Days of Podcasting & Day 18/75 Hard!

Remember when I said life always get in the way? And how much I love excuses? Sometimes it’s a hurricane, sometimes it’s a tractor working on the road behind us, and sometimes it’s just a low energy day.

I was MIA last week, but WE VOTED! & I’m back full force this week! Let’s have a story time, if you can keep up with my fast talking and bouncing from place to place.

THANK YOU to everyone that reached out to me about the podcast last week! You are so appreciated!!

Day 11/75 Days of Podcasting & Day 12/75 Hard!

Two days of being way behind, dealing with the joys of living in an rv park, but still getting everything done without stress or rushing.

Life comes at us hard and likes to test our commitment to doing the things we say we’re going to do. Showing up messy, real, and raw, but with purpose.

Day 10/75 Days of Podcasting & Day 8/75 Hard!

Yesterday was Thursday, or was it Monday? I can’t tell.

Hard times. Doubt. Laughing at yourself. New challenges. Mondayish Thursday’s. Let’s talk about it.

Day 9/75 Days of Podcasting & Day 6/75 Hard!

Settling. God. Hometowns. Family. New ideas. Purpose. And a lot of rambling. Let’s talk about it.

I’ve been told so many times to just come home and try again. But people don’t understand we’re in the middle of building the life we love. That might mean being broke for a while, but if we can build a life and relationship we want, it’ll all be worth it.

So many people get stuck in their hometown and in their same old ways that they stop looking for more. They think that being broke is a bad thing and that starting over over and over again is how you make it big. Eventually it’ll work out right? Wrong. Building something huge takes sacrifice. And leaving my hometown and finding myself was the best thing that’s ever happened to me.

We continue to lean on our own understanding while God is calling to us saying His path is greater. He continues to show us that our hardships are needed, that we have to lean on Him, that we have to give up the idea that we are in control of our life. I keep finding myself trying to figure it out instead of turning to God to get us through. And every single time He shows me that He will always get us through, His way, in His timing.

If you’re settling for a comfortable life, comfortable money, or a comfortable relationship, know that God has so much more for you out there. You should never be chasing money or materialistic things, but instead you should be chasing God and know that everything else will fall into place.

Day 8/75 Days of Podcasting & Day 4/75 Hard!

Do the hard things in life and live an easy life, or do the easy things in life and live a hard life. Choose your hard, and choose it wisely.

I don’t know about you, but I’m tired of living “the easy life.” After starting 75 Hard over for the fourth time, I’m DONE making excuses. I’m done not showing up for myself. I’m done not living the life that I want to live.

Way too often we accept mediocrity from ourselves and then complain when we aren’t successful. But if you look back at your last 365 days, did you give it your all? I know I didn’t. So for the next 75 days, my team is doing 75 Grit, which is their own version of 75 Hard that adds in our business activities. As a team, we are putting our excuses behind and making 2020 an amazing year. We will all leave 2020 with huge accomplishments!

Start today by choosing your hard and commit for the next 75 days. Whether that’s fully committing to 75 Hard, asking me how to get involved with 75 Grit and being a coach, or just simply doing the things you say you’re going to do. Stop accepting mediocrity and start demanding more from yourself and from life. Because you deserve it.

Day 7/75 Days of Podcasting & Day 1/75 Hard!

Binge eating. Anxiety. Consistency. Determination. Honesty. Let’s talk about it.

Fail #3 of 75 Hard. I’m staying honest with you. I took a bite of my husband’s dinner after I had no more room in my meal plan. Yes, it was small. But yes, it was a cheat. I’m not skipping over the little details, and I’m done making a habit of failure.

Consistency drives results. If our habits are consistently pushing us backward, we need to recognize those habits and replace them with habits that will push us forward. It doesn’t take perfect action, it takes consistent action. Look at the activities you do daily. Are they moving you forward or backward? What habits could you add daily that would push you forward?

Day 6/75 Days of Podcasting & Day 3/75 Hard!

Are you ever so scared you’re going to fail at something that you just never start? Or even worse, start but go ahead and count yourself out.

One of the most powerful questions I’ve ever been asked is, “When did you decide you were going to fail?” Before I even began was my answer. I started 75 Hard the first time KNOWING I would fail because I had never struck to anything for that long. I have a weekly (or nightly) cheat meal, I drink alcohol almost daily, and I hate reading. I started my second round knowing I was going to fail because I had already failed once. My third round I knew I was going to succeed because I know one day I’m going to interview Andy Frisella on my podcast and tell him how this program changed my entire life. But if I never finish, I’ll never get that opportunity.

Stop counting yourself before you even begin. You’re so much more than you give yourself credit for. You are capable of living a life by design, you just have to start designing.

Day 5/75 Days of Podcasting & Day1/75 Hard!

My voice is shakey, I rambled a lot, but THANK GOD IT’S MONDAY!

I have come to love Monday’s so much more than the weekend. The weekend brings temptation while Monday brings determination. In your health, business, or any other goal you might have, the weekend is often a time we give ourselves permission to throw in the towel and wait until Monday to fix it all. Then we hate Monday because its so stressful because we’re playing catch up from the weekend.

Learn to look for the new opportunities, challenges, and gifts of the new week instead of all the work that needs to be done. Get excited for new discoveries instead of anxious for having to start over.

Don’t wait for Monday to start but never miss a Monday!

4/75 of 75 Days of Podcasting! Yesterday and today have been a little crazy. So many things going on and happening and not getting overwhelmed is tricky.

Guess what - FAIL #2 of 75 Hard comin at ya. There’s no denying it. I tried to start WAY too much WAY too fast and allowed myself to slip through the cracks. Am I going to give up? HELL NO!

It’s my birthday week, so it’s time for all of the celebrations! 75 Hard is meant to be hard and is meant to be failed. It really opens your eyes to how the small habits can either build you up or tear you down. It’s not a reason to give up! It’s a reason to push harder. So the podcasts might not be daily, but we’re still striving for 75!
