This Week’s Question :

from Jacob S.

“Hey Christine Marie, life is magnificent! However, I feel I’m starting to fall into that comfort zone within my job and career goals.

I’ve lost some urgency and dedication to the achievement of my financial dreams. While my personal life is amazing, I feel like a flat tire because my career and health goals are flat… Need to focus on the balance and take disciplined action towards my dreams. How do you suggest I get realigned?”

This Week’s Answer:

Great question Jacob. Thank You for sharing.

As human beings, we must work with two opposing forces. The desire to move forward and create, and the desire to do nothing.

It’s physics…

It’s inertia we are dealing with… the force that’s required to get an object in motion.

Life is good, but deep inside we want more! The wanting more… is the infinite side of our nature. It’s natural to want more. Its life signaling us to grow.

And then there’s the human side of our nature that is wired to stay the same. It’s that part of us that looks for all the reasons to keep things familiar – to conserve energy and stay safe.

The inner dialog goes something like this…“Life is good, I should just appreciate what I have and be happy” or, “I don’t want the promotion anyway, and all the extra responsibility. “

Does this sound familiar?

Desire and motivation are not enough to change the patterns that are keeping you from taking action.

Being super motivated and sitting on the couch won’t take you where you want to go.

You MUST create the desire at a deeper level of mind – the subconscious level of mind.

Remember WHY it matters to you to reach your financial goals.

Describe your WHY – take some time to write it down. Don’t let yourself off the hook here – then ask yourself

What’s it costing you… to stay where you are?

Most people will consider the cost of what they will lose if they go for something and it doesn’t work.

Rarely do people evaluate the cost of staying where you are.

You must DECIDE that you care more about your WHY, your purpose, and your calling than the part of you that wants to stay the same.

It Matters if You Just Won’t Quit!

You have to make an agreement with yourself that you’ll keep going – no matter what shows up, even when life is good.

Good is the Enemy of Great!

When you continually take action, you’re creating momentum – and reprogramming your mind to a new norm.
