Do you believe you can do anything you put your mind to?
And before you just blurt a knee-jerk response, think about that question. You’ve heard it so often by now, it may have lost its significance.
If you’re like most of us, you’ve placed limits on yourself. You believe you’re too shy, too old, too young, too something.
Not only does that thinking stop you from even attempting to realize your dream, but it also prevents you from showing those around you that they, too, can realize their dreams.
It’s time to remove the boundaries — for yourself and those who’re watching you. Whether it’s your children, your friends, or even people of whom you’re totally unaware.
The Dream Stomper
You can change your mindset, and set yourself free to follow your passion; and set an example for others at the same time.
We all carry some emotional baggage, whether we realize it or not. That baggage is like a ball and chain, holding you back, squelching your self-belief. And it’s affecting how you see yourself today.
More importantly, it’s stomping on your dreams.
Breaking Free Of Your Boundaries
Think about your life’s passions. For starters, what did you want to be when you grew up? 🙂
What did you love to do? Did you believe, back then, that anything was possible? You probably had grand aspirations and no reason, yet, to believe them unattainable.
Where did those wondrous, soaring dreams go?
As you grew up, your self-esteem took countless hits. It happens to all of us. And those hits break down and erode your self-confidence.
What Torch Will You Carry?
One thing I realized during the conference I speak about in this video is that my torch, my legacy, is to help young women build, or rebuild, their self-esteem. I want to see them cast off the chains forged by repeated challenges and failures throughout their lives.
I bet you have a torch you wish to carry, a legacy you’d like to leave as well. You’ve just temporarily lost sight of it. How would you like to find it again?
You can.
Your life has a purpose. You have tremendous value to offer. You can effect positive change in the lives of others and yourself.
You just have to believe in yourself, identify and banish the limitations you’ve set, and go after what matters most to you.
So look inward. Find that lost passion. It’s there. I know it is.
No matter what you want to do, you have it within you to do it.
So grab your torch.
Wield it with confidence and belief.
Effect change. Make a difference.
And leave your legacy.
Someone out there needs you. 🙂
