Ep 47: How to Be the Person you Want to Be

Published: May 8, 2019, 1 p.m.

Being who we want to be on the inside is entirely different from achieving something on the outside. On the outside, we might have goals or ambitions to achieve something (like losing weight, or getting finances how we want them, or finding a spouse, or getting pregnant....), and yet when we achieve those things, we are still the same human on the inside.

\n

It\u2019s important to understand that even when we achieve the things we hope to achieve, the person we are BEing is still us. 

\n

We won\u2019t magically become immune to insecurity or self-doubt once we lose weight.

\n

We don\u2019t become inoculated against feelings of frustration or fear just because we got out of debt.

\n

We will still experience pain and suffering, even when we achieve what we want to achieve. It\u2019s sort of like a cold or a flu bug-- as humans, we will always be susceptible to struggle and negative emotion.

\n


\n

This episode is much less about achieving goals and dreams and more about who we want to be along the way.

\n

How do we want to think about our struggles?

\n

How do we want to respond to them or talk about them or see them?

\n


\n

Listen to hear how I recommend accessing your inner wisdom and personal revelation, and how to create and experience BEing the person you want to be.
