698: Own Where Youve Been in Order to Get Where Youre Going
Last weekend, we hosted our Fall Retreat for our membership community.\xa0The theme of this retreat was Tap Into Your Intuition.\xa0One of the activities we did early in the retreat was build-out our Self Trust Resumes.\xa0We had members take a look at their past skills & strengths (those that are innate and those they have trained).\xa0Members were invited to take a close look at how their education, professional experience, and personal experiences have formed who they are and who they are becoming.\xa0\xa0\nWhen we are looking toward goals and dreams, it\u2019s easy to forget all the ways we have already qualified ourselves, making us perfectly poised to go after whatever it is we want right now.\xa0\xa0\nWhen I was in London 2 weeks ago training a communications team of a Fortune 10 company, we invited folks to share stories from their past as proof of leadership abilities today.\xa0It was absolutely incredible to hear what folks came up with. \xa0Your past qualifies you to own your future. \xa0\nWhen we push pause and create space to look back for a moment, we can find such clear and striking evidence of what we are capable of moving forward.\xa0But, when we are in the hustle and bustle of daily life, we quickly forget this.\xa0We are so busy getting through the chaos of the day or the season that we can\u2019t see what we\u2019re capable of in the future.\xa0\xa0\nI want to invite you to push pause.\xa0Think of a goal you are working toward right now - whether it feels like a long term dream or an immediate fixation.\xa0Now, look back over the course of your life and find a few pieces of evidence that prove you are capable of going after big things, you are good at figuring out new things, and you are brave when embarking on an uncertain journey.\xa0\xa0\nYou have undoubtedly proven these things to yourself repeatedly over the course of your life.\xa0Once you start owning them, you will see how incredibly qualified you are to go after whatever it is you want right now.\xa0\n\nLink mentioned:\nGet on the waitlist to join the Academy: shamelessmom.com/waitlist\n\n\nSponsor info and promo codes:\n\nPlease find our sponsor information here: shamelessmom.com/sponsor/\n\n\nInterested in becoming a sponsor of the Shameless Mom Academy?
