b'This past weekend, I attended an event for the network marking company I\\u2019m affiliated with it and it was incredible! Every year around this time I always reflect and am so grateful for the relationships it has brought into my life. I honestly never thought I would be part of this type of company (it took a long time and ton of fear), but despite the nay-sayers and my own initial reservations, I haven\\u2019t regretted it for a second.\\n \\xa0\\n So if you\\u2019re feeling fear around something and/or a pull on your soul, go for it and ignore all the background noise within and outside \\u2013 I\\u2019m living proof. Trust me, after creating a podcast, network marketing and writing a book, I\\u2019ve come to trust my soul to guide me in the right direction. But in order to do so, I have to consistently keep chipping away day by day at my goals.\\n \\xa0\\n \\u201cConsistency trumps everything.\\u201d\\n \\xa0\\n If you keep showing up and learning, you will go exactly where the message on your soul means for you to go. And this often times means ignoring the protective voices in your head and of others. Ditch the stories that swirl around in your head and choose the thoughts that align with your message. And yes, we ALL have a message (that means you!).\\n \\xa0\\n \\u201cIf you have a pulse, you have a message.\\u201d\\n \\xa0\\n Your message is as unique as you are, so if you haven\\u2019t pinned down exactly what it is, don\\u2019t worry, you just need to listen more closely and give it a bit more time. Even if you think that pull is something far too simple\\u2026 stop and listen. Does it bring you fulfillment or happiness? Ding, ding \\u2013 you\\u2019ve got a winner, and now you must protect it.\\n \\xa0\\n Full honesty? It takes a ton of bravery to create boundaries and protect your goals and message. After all, your goals are linked to your happiness. But let\\u2019s not forget faith. It is imperative that you have faith throughout the winding process of life.\\n \\xa0\\n \\u201cFaith is trusting that you\\u2019re forgiven in the face of no closure.\\u201d\\n \\xa0\\n What do I mean by this? Lately, I\\u2019ve had to say no to a lot of people who I\\u2019ve wanted to say yes to. I\\u2019m a people pleaser (old habits die hard), but I work on it every day. Sometimes when I say no or have to leave a conversation abruptly, I feel such guilt and fear that someone will be upset with me. The reality though is that they likely didn\\u2019t even notice. And if they did, they either understand or will forget it in a matter of minutes.\\n \\xa0\\n \\u201cCreate boundaries around the things that are leaking your energy.\\u201d\\n \\xa0\\n Stop leaking your energy by carrying guilt for something that doesn\\u2019t exist! Give yourself the gift of closure \\u2013 forgive and move on. I\\u2019m not saying that you won\\u2019t have your challenges along the way, but preserve your energy to fulfill your goals/message.\\n \\xa0\\n \\u201cBig, bold steps take energy and bravery.\\u201d\\n \\xa0\\n --\\n In This Episode You Will Learn:\\n \\xa0\\n Why we need to create boundaries to protect our goals and message\\n The importance of whole-heartedly having faith and forgiveness\\n How you can gain energy back by getting closure\\xa0\\n Resources:\\n \\xa0\\n Check out my website at http://loriharder.com.
