Do you notice how often people settle for a “just okay” life instead of an extraordinary life?
Or they settle for what they think they can have instead of what they really want?
How often do you see people trudging along in their jobs, or the same relationship, and it’s obvious they are not fulfilled and enjoy what they have?
Do you see people who want to break out of mediocrity, but don’t know how to do it so they stay right where they are?
Here is my most important question…
Are you one of these people?
Do you see yourself in any of these situations?
I don’t want to see you stop short of true happiness and settle for “good enough.”
You were not created to live with this type of standard.
You have too much to give.
You have too much talent.
You have too much to settle.
Why do people choose to settle for less?
Yes, it is a choice.
Usually it is out of fear.
When fear is the cause, it can be: fear of failure, fear of loss of acceptance, fear of the unknown, fear of being disappointed.
Fear often leaves people doubtful that they can have what they truly want.
Sometimes people settle for less because they want to stay within the comfort zone.
If you step out, how will it affect you?
Will you be putting your loved ones at risk?
How is settling for less affecting your loved ones now?
You see when someone settles for less it affects everyone and not just the person doing the settling.
If you stop settling, you will naturally become even a better mother, father, daughter, son, sister, brother, friend.
It is time to stop settling and start living!
Start with finding your passion again.
From there, you can create goals and take action.
It is all about momentum.
Taking action means taking back your power.
Doing this will take you from being stuck to being in motion, everyday getting closer and closer toward your dream, while improving yourself and experiencing victories every step of the way.
You will enjoy the moment instead of tolerating the moment.
When you decide to stop settling for less, you decide to rise above what life seems to be giving you and start to take all life has to offer- all the possibilities and opportunities.
Most of us don’t think about purpose much - or maybe we do, but we think about what we wish our purpose was, “if only things were different.”
Instead, we should be focusing on how we’re not willing to settle for less than living that purpose.
So, if you’ve been giving up on what you really want, just remember that what you focus your attention on grows.
Once you’re able to focus on what you truly want, and then come up with goals and take action, you will that create exactly what you want most…
Get ready to see what you once deemed “impossible” turn into the possible and become the achievable!
You are in for a glorious ride!
