Heraclitus said the only constant in life is change. But, if you’re adverse to change, you’ll do anything you can to avoid it. You’ll do things to remain in your current comfort zone of what you already know to be safe. You’ll even talk yourself out of going after your goals and dreams in life because it would require change. Change is scary. Yet, it’s also scary to think about life if nothing were to change.
If nothing were to change, life would be dull and stagnant. It’s like watching a movie without any exciting scenes. It would be boring and you’d eventually get up and leave. Change needs to happen in your life. Without change, you’re not learning and growing. You’re content with where you are, simply floating through life’s daily mundane routines. You’re not working towards a goal to better yourself and your current...
Challenging your inner limiting beliefs can be a difficult task. First, you have to realize what limiting beliefs you have and then you have to be willing to change them. Change is scary because it’s outside of your comfort zone of what you already know to be safe and true. Taking the brave risk to step into the unknown outside your comfort zone usually only happens when you can no longer stand to continue living as you currently are. As Tony Robbins says, change happens when the pain of staying the same is greater than the pain of change. Creating positive change in your life is how you achieve your goals and live life to the fullest.
Begin by asking yourself if you’re comfortable with where you currently are. Evaluate all areas of your life and give each one a score from one to ten. Rate each of the following areas from your metal well being, physical health, environment, finances, career, hobbies, to...
There are limiting beliefs that are holding you back from going after your goals and dreams in life. This can be from other people who told you reasons why you can’t do something or previous experiences that cause you to be fearful of taking action towards your dreams. Either way, you have formed stories in your mind of what you believe to be true about life. These thoughts, beliefs, and stories can hold you back from taking action to achieve your goals and prevent you from ultimately living life to your full potential.
Most of these stories were created during your childhood. Think back to when you were little. You were brave, courageous, and ready to go explore all that life had to offer. You hadn’t formed beliefs around why you couldn’t or shouldn’t do something. You were just curious enough to try. But, then you put your hand on the hot stove and learned that wasn’t such a...
Getting what you want and achieving your goals in life is based off what you believe you can attain. If you don’t think you can get what you want, then that will become your reality. If you think you’re incapable of achieving your goals and dreams in life, then you’ll never be able to. You must start to believe in yourself and the dreams that have been placed on your heart for a reason. Here’s how you can get what you want and achieve your goals in life.
The first step is to get really clear on what it is that you want. Set a goal for yourself. Dig deep and dream big. Do not let the negative committee in your head telling you all the reasons why you cannot achieve something so audacious stop you. Choose a goal that you’re passionate about. Find the reason why achieving this goal matters to you. Think about how your life would be different when you achieve the goal. If...
You might be holding yourself back from taking action towards your goals and dreams in life. There are many reasons that come up but often it leads back to a deep fear, worry, or inner self doubt. These keep you paralyzed from taking action so that you remain safe in your comfort zone. However, that’s not fully living life and all that you’re meant to experience. It’s time to take a few risks by stepping outside your comfort zone into the unknown. The way you do this is by deciding it’s time to try.
Your comfort zone is a safe bubble of what you already know. Stepping outside of that can be scary. But, it can also be incredibly worth it. Outside your comfort zone is where life really happens. It’s learning new things, challenging yourself, and expanding your horizons. The only way you step outside your comfort zone is to muster up the courage to try. That can lead to...

Perhaps you’ve achieved some amazing things in your life but you still have an inkling that there is more you can achieve in your future.

If any of these ring true for you, it’s not too late. You can still live life to your full potential. You fully live life by taking action.
Taking action is not easy. There is a lot of fear, worry, doubt, reasons, and excuses that try to stop you. However, if you want to live life to your full potential, you’re going to have to step outside your comfort zone and do things that you’ve never done before. It’s time to experience new things in your life. That can be scary but...
There are three different ways you can take action towards your goal. First, are those on the sidelines who think about taking action, those that take small action steps, and those that leap right in taking frantic action. How you take action is an important factor in determining how successful you will be in achieving your goal.
Consider being at a swimming pool with regards to these three different types of people. There are those who dip their toes into the water from the sidelines, people who cannon ball to jump right into the water, and others who slowly walk into the pool until they are neck deep in the water. Any of these approaches can be applied to how you step outside your comfort zone and take action towards your goals in life.
You may be someone who finds yourself on the sidelines. You’re sitting in the pool deck chair, sunbathing, reading with your sunglasses on, and watching everyone...
You may think you’re making progress towards your goals because you’re in the learning and researching phase. You’re consuming content from books, podcasts, videos, and even learning tips from mentors. All with the hopes that you’ll be better prepared to put it into practice. However, sometimes you get stuck in this phase because you never feel quite ready. The truth is, there will never be a perfect time to start. In fact, the perfect time to start is right now! You must stop preparing to take action and actually take action!
Think about if you were wanting to learn how to ski. Reading books, watching videos, listening to podcasts from athletes, and studying Olympians will only take you so far. It’s when you actually put on the skis for the first time, you will be able to really test your ability to master the craft. Trying to prepare yourself will only take you so...
There are four types of people when it comes to working to achieve goals. This dictates how you view your dreams and new opportunities in your life. It’s also how you take action towards those dreams and how you take on challenges. Learn which type you are by how you pursue your goals so that you can achieve your dreams in life.
The first type is a dreamer. You’re a dreamer if you rarely take action towards your goal. It could be fear, worry, or doubt that keeps you stuck. You would rather stay safe in your comfort zone and only dream about future possibilities. You keep your head up in the clouds with no intention of acting on your dreams because you do not like opposition and challenges. You’re too afraid, scared, and that fear will always hold you back from going after your goals. A dreamer can visualize what’s possible but never takes action. Therefore, you don’t have to...
Your goals and dreams will never be achieved if you don’t take action. You can remain stuck, simply dreaming about what you want to achieve or you can get yourself in the game and start taking action. It can be scary to get in the game because it’s outside of your comfort zone and going into the wild unknown. But, it can be so worth it! Imagine what you could and would achieve if you just took action towards your dreams in life. It’s time to get in the game and finally achieve the goals that have been on your heart.
Right now you’re probably on the sidelines. You’re not in the game. You’re just watching the game happen from the safety of the sidelines. You’re cheering others on and avoiding any obstacles that could possibly arise if you were to get in the game. Maybe you don’t like challenges. Perhaps you’re afraid of getting hurt. There are many...
