this. So for those of you that missed this call, I'm going to do a really quick recap of some
important things. As if you're listening to this in real time, we just finished January. The first
of 12 months is down and we were really talking about if we were happy with it or what we wish
we'd done more or less of. And I love some of the feedback and Julie using her planner and
reminded me of something so important and that is many times we tend to put off
things that feel hard. Maybe they overwhelm our mind. Maybe they just feel like they're
going to take a long time. Maybe we feel inadequate. Maybe they feel overwhelming.
Maybe we don't know where to start. But there's something about it that feels big, that feels
heavy. And so the brain is wired to conserve energy. That's our brain. It's wired to conserve
energy because more than 25% of your body's energy is coming from the brain or being used by the
brain. So in order to do that, we'll tend to put that off. And there's a couple challenges. First
of all, the things that we put off are far heavier on us. They're actually a weight. They weigh down
all of your life and your being and your energy. So the things that are not done are actually a
weight and they're actually heavier than just doing them. And so I was sharing that one of my
early coaches had big signs everywhere. GSDF. Get stuff done fast. Just make that a policy. Get
stuff done fast. Right? Get stuff done fast. And the other aspect of that is that success loves
speed. Success loves speed. It does. And especially speed of implementation. So
tackle the hard things. Do those things first. Tackle the hard things. And so that led to the
conversation then of a couple things of wanting to get done. One is a vision board. And if you
haven't done your vision board yet, and if you don't have it in a place where you're looking at
it every day, and if it is outdated or it doesn't inspire you anymore, or you're not interacting
with it, I encourage you to. What do I mean interacting with it? I've shared with you that
my vision board, I use a cork board. I do not glue pictures on there. That is too stagnant for me. I
want this to be a living, breathing, moving. So I use a large cork board with tacks. And that way,
I can keep moving the pictures around, changing them, deleting them. Like it's always a work in
progress. And then remember some ways that you can do this. You can use the vision board
as a place for gratitude. So you can start looking at all those things. Jesus always thanked
God for things before they came, not after. And so you can look at those things and have a place
of gratitude. Tap into the feeling of gratitude and give thanks for it in advance. You can use
it as a place of prayer. You can use it as a stimulus to your imagination. You can use your
affirmations and you can use your declarations. Looking at and expanding because there's a
principle by beholding we are changed or we become like that which we're looking at. Or another way
of looking at it is whatever we focus on expands. So this is a focusing tool. It's an expansive tool
it. We know that our imagination is really powerful. Our God-given image maker. So getting
your vision board done. A couple other things I shared that are really powerful to go with this
is two books. And it's really those of you and my clients that have read it. They're all coming
back to me with rape reviews and it's rocking their world. And that's called Be Your Future Self
Now and Be Your Future Self Now. Ben Benjamin Hardy, same guy that wrote 10 X's easier than
2X. Dan Sullivan, Dr. Benjamin Hardy. So Be Your Future Self Now, really powerful. He's an
organizational psychologist. He's extremely logical, systematic and really focuses on research.
So it's no joke, right? It's when he talks, it's pretty scientific. And yet it's incredibly
inspiring. So be your future self. Now, I paired that with a
book that I just happened to stumble on this week over the
last few days. And it's called plan your year, like a
millionaire plan your year like a millionaire. And it is by
Rachel Rogers. Let's see if I can see my phone. Trying to show
it to you. There you go. Looks like that. Plan your year like
a millionaire. And she is I don't know any better way to say
it. She is a badass, black, eight figure earner. Okay, black
female badass. She she's amazing. And she's super
practical. To me, she's really quite inspiring, quite
inspiring. And she's a kind of kick your butt into action kind
of inspiring. Good for me to hear, you know, I'm kicking a
lot of butt, but I need my butt kicked too. And I do have a
coach that kicks my butt pretty well, too. But um, so so this
is, this is a really good listen to go. So if you're reading, be
your future self now perfect for this time of year. Plan your
year like a millionaire, pretty, pretty inspiring. I
encourage easy listen, short listen, there's only like four
sections to it. They're, they're pretty bottom line practical,
like you can apply it and get value from it right now. And I,
it got me thinking, you know, she really talks about how a
millionaire thinks and does things. And of course, I've, you
know, I've lived in that space. So most of the stuff that she's
talking about, I do, I've done, I think like that. But the idea
of actually teaching it and talking about it more, really
inspired me, really inspired me. So I encourage you guys, I think
I think you'll get a lot from that. So was that everything we
talked about so far, I'm going to stop the recording. But that
gives a recap for all the people and next time you guys be here,
powerful things happen when you show up. That would be another
principle, just show up. Thursday mornings, 9am is when I
make myself available to answer your questions and support you
where you most need support. All right, I'm going to, I'm going
to stop this and then I am going to go back to answering live
questions.
