…is the one where you’ll say all the things you’ve always wanted to say, but have been too afraid to say them.
What are you dying to say that hasn’t been said?
What are your secret dreams? (and what’s possible for you if they’re not so secret anymore?)
I get it. Speaking out into the universe what you want, what you really really want is scary! I’ve heard in many powerful coaching conversations that a big part of the fear is that speaking it out into universe is like opening Pandora’s Box. Once it’s out, you can’t put it back in.
Once your true feelings and secret dreams are revealed, it leads to “Oh shit, now it means I actually have to do something about it!”
Well, I have some “good” news for you. Just because you tell the universe what you want doesn’t mean you actually have to do it!
In fact, most people don’t. Let me rephrase that. Most people won’t. Most people will choose to live in their comfort zone rather than creating the future that they know they want.
So, while the first step to creating an extraordinary life is having the courage to have a powerful conversation about it, the second step of whether or not you’re going to do anything about it is far more important.
This all leads to BEING. Who do you want to BE?
Do you want to be a person who creates the future of your dreams or not?
There is no right or wrong answer here. There is no judgment. There is no shaming. It is merely an opportunity to be honest with yourself if you want to put effort into making your biggest dreams come true or not.
Because making your dreams come true is going to be hard. Like, really flippin’ hard. That’s why most person won’t do it. And it’s fine if you don’t want to put in the blood, sweat, and tears to make it happen.
I actually enjoy the honesty I’ve heard from people who say there are many areas of their lives they’d like to change, but they don’t want to put the effort in to do so. Or even more refreshing is when people have the self-awareness to say that they know they’re unhappy with their life, but they’d rather be unhappy in their comfort zone than creating happiness which will take stepping out of their comfort zone and confronting their fears.
So while the idea of having this powerful conversation with another human being may be terrifying, let’s start with a baby step. I invite you to start by having a powerful conversation with yourself. Without judgment or shame, ask yourself this:
What are my secret dreams?
Do I want to be the kind of person who makes them come true?
