Secluded Thoughts

You're not always going to feel like doing something but you STILL have to do it! It's not about the thing - it's about the bad habit you'll develop that will make you slack off.

In this week's episode I'm going to be transparent on how I've been struggling with consistency lately and I've been slacking off on some things I've been meaning to do simply because I don't feel like doing it. That includes recording this very episode.

I hope this resonates with someone.

Stop waiting to feel like doing something - you most likely won't. But if it's important, DO IT.

Your circle will either make you or break you. Many of us are walking around bearing the weight of relationships that are draining us just because it's our family, or "day ones," or even your significant other. But just because you created relationships with these people (or in your family's case.. you were born into it) doesn't mean that all of these relationships are meant to be kept.

The best version of yourself is going to require you to be more intentional about the relationships you create and maintain. And sometimes the reason there's a gap between where you are and where you want to be is because some of the relationships you're clinging to are not meant to go with you. Don't sabotage yourself to save a relationship that's not serving you, even if it's with your family.

Let's have a real conversation about this, sis.

Your intuition ALWAYS warns you about people and certain situations but most of us tend to ignore it. We're often so bombarded with the expectations of other people and society that we chose to live our lives according to these external influences versus focusing on how we feel about things and what our intuition is trying to tell us.

But what you ignore in the beginning will almost always be the reason you walk away from something or someone in the end. So the choice is yours. Are you going to heed the warning or waste your time?

Tune in to talk about why we should ignoring our intuition when it comes to dating and our career.

Many of us have convinced ourselves that "busy" is good and it means you're making progress but you're not. You might be doing a lot but feeling like you're not really accomplishing anything. That's because you're spreading yourself too thin. You have a million different ideas on what to do with your life and your next business idea etc and you're trying to do all of these things but it's not realistic. I've been there. And fortunately I've realized that busy is NOT the same as productive and I'm going to help you sort your life out.

Do you know the REAL you? Most of us may feel like we're drifting in life and time is passing us by because we're not sure who we are and why we're here. We let social media tell us how we should be living our lives and when our life doesn't look like what we see on social media we feel like failures.

But what if what you're envying isn't even what you like?? Have you thought about what you ACTUALLY like and care about? Have you gotten to know who you are? Or are you unknowingly letting social media define you?

TOPICS DISCUSSED:

• Who are you outside of people’s expectations?
• Getting to know yourself will give you clarity toward your purpose
• Don’t let social media tell you how you should live your life
• *SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT*
• Drifting will make you feel like you’re wasting your life
• Don’t grow in isolation

Once you start getting clear on what the best version of yourself looks like you start detaching from your current reality and acting in alignment - even if you don't notice it. You'll start feeling out of place in your current environment and in doing the same things you've always done. It's going to get really and uncomfortable - and even worst when the people in your circle start telling you that you're changing or "switching up."

Let's talk about what you can do when this happens.

How many times have you sacrificed your peace trying to be there for people who don't want your help? How many times have you tried to steer people in the 'right' direction and they don't take your advice but you still go out of your way to try to guide them? I get it... you think it's noble... but it's not.

You can't want more for someone than they want for themselves. You have to understand that sometimes people have to learn from experience in order to make a change in their lives and no amount of love or influence you think you have over them will make them see things your way.

Your first priority is yourself. Make sure you're not being a sacrificial lamb to a wolf.

You were NEVER meant to compete with anyone else. And because you're constantly comparing yourself to other people you feel like you're behind in life or that you're a failure. You can't compare your chapter 2 to someone else's chapter 58. Your life is about running your OWN race. Not running with others or running your own but constantly looking at other people on their own path. Let's fix that, sis.

Y'all today I have A WORD for you. People are ALWAYS going to give you "advice" and suggestions - whether it's welcomed or unsolicited but you have to learn to be able to discern what is for you and what isn't. And sometimes it's sound advice - it worked for them. But that doesn't mean it's going to work for you. Sometimes you are just called to do something different.

I've literally been struggling to discern whether I was running away from discomfort from growth or if my intuition was just trying to move me in another direction. I struggled with feeling like I was quitting or letting myself down or going against the grain in a way that implied I didn't appreciate the advice I was getting for my podcast but I realized that my VISION is just different.
