Change your life one step at a time
When I first started doing this work, I wanted to change everything. I had just come out of an abusive relationship, I had been unwell for a long time, I was having difficulty in figuring out how to be the best mom to my autistic son and I needed to make more money as I just did not have enough to get by.Â
Change your life one step at a time
When I first started doing this work, I wanted to change everything. I had just come out of an abusive relationship, I had been unwell for a long time, I was having difficulty in figuring out how to be the best mom to my autistic son and I needed to make more money as I just did not have enough to get by.Â
But trying to tackle everything just doesn’t get you anywhere. I didn’t know where to start as they all seemed a priority to me. I wanted to fix everything, like now.
I picked one little thing. I decided I wanted to feel more elegant. Now looking at the list above, you might think what on earth does that have to do with fixing my life. It had everything to do with it. I made a list of all the things I wanted in my life and I dreamt big and crazy, small and for some practical things. Just to give you an idea of a practical thing, a new bed as mine was not so comfortable anymore.
What felt right
I looked at my list and decided what felt right, right now, what would be fun to do and that was to feel more elegant. So I figured out what that would look like for me and if you had the same goal it would probably look different for you. Then I scheduled those things and started doing them and it was fun.Â
Now the crazy thing was, it was not just about feeling elegant, it made me show up in different ways and I started feeling different. Even more crazy, other things started changing in my life.

Hi, I’m Antoinette Porter, your hostess at Live Life Inspired where we will explore what is possible in your life. A life you can look back on and say, “Wow!! I did that!”
Change your life one step at a time
I started feeling better physically, I started focusing on how I could improve my son’s life, I had more energy, I started training as a life coach. So by just focusing on one thing, it had a ripple effect throughout my life.
I was so surprised by the results that I got that I actually created a program around it, it’s called the One Day Program and I apply it in my life every single day and have created so many results because of it.
Stress
We all stress that there is so much we want in our lives that we become paralysed and end up not even starting. Or we start doing all the things, only to lose momentum soon after because we burn out, we can’t keep up with pace we set for ourselves. My clients also say, they don’t know what to choose, what if they choose the wrong goal.Â
I want to offer to you that it will never be the wrong thing. Why? Because it is on your list so obviously it is something you are interested in.
I did have a few things on my list that I wanted to do and when I investigated more, I figured out actually it was not for me. But had I not gone a little further down the line with that goal I would not have known. Now I can scratch it off my list and concentrate on something I do want to work on.
Do not disregard starting with a simple step.Â
Our brains are so good in creating confusion and keeping us stuck. If you start simple, with one goal and focus all your energy on it, you will have success beyond your wildest dreams. And the bonus is, you will create such a vast ripple effect through other areas of your life. You may find that the next goal you start on will not nearly be as challenging as you anticipated as your mindset would have changed along the way.
Challenge
So my challenge to you today is, pick one goal and go all out on it, focus on it for the next 30 days and let me know what results you have created for yourself.
You can do this. Remember you have this one life, why not live it with everything you’ve got.
Till next week.
