What is possible…?
What is possible in your life? We don’t spend enough time dreaming. Specially if you are a woman, you know we have many expectations on us. We are expected to fulfill many roles and often there is some sort of path laid out for us by our parents and families. Not to mention what society expects of us. I come from a very Afrikaans family and there was never any expectation of me going into business or even becoming an entrepreneur. And I bought into it. I didn’t know any better.
The best my family expected of me was to become a secretary. My grandmother was a teacher and she would have like to become a secretary, so naturally that was her wish for me. I had other plans though. I wanted to become a beauty therapist, and believe me, from the small community I came from, I was perceived as having designs above my station. Way back then, the salary options were pretty much similar.
Nothing wrong with either of these occupations, in fact I eventually did become an executive assistant for over 20 years. However, it took me years to think I was capable of becoming an entrepreneur and coaching had a lot to do with it. If you had a certain way of thinking and believing for many years, it takes a real effort to change this. It’s like you are in a rut and you really have to put some energy into thinking and believing something different.
What is Possible…?
It is always a good idea to figure out where you are right now, with your thinking, with your beliefs and how you are showing up in your life. We have taken on so many beliefs from other people that it is time to really be curious and to question everything you belief. Is it really true? How could I be thinking about it? Create a different set of thoughts and beliefs. Ones that actually serve you. Ones that lead you to the place you want to get to.
It may not always be possible to just change your thoughts and beliefs overnight. When you coach with me, I show you how to use the thought ladder to start thinking thoughts that are better than your current thoughts. It is possible to completely change your beliefs.
Your next step is to actually start dreaming
Go crazy. I am guessing that you have never given yourself permission to just dream and not hold yourself back, saying, this is not possible, this is unrealistic. You know what makes it not possible or unrealistic? Just your thoughts. You may think that everyone wants to make a lot of money, or become famous or become an astronaut. But that’s not true. If you really examined what is important to you and what you value, these may not be things for you.

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!”
Because this may be a new exercise for you, it may take a while for you to figure out what it is that you truly want. You are going to want things and you are going to try these things on for size, because it looked like it would be fun, but then find out, actually it’s not for you. I studied law for 7 years only to find out within the 1st few weeks of working, that I didn’t like it at all. It was not the environment I expected it to be and I changed direction. A lot of people may think that it was a waste, but I can’t lose my degree nor what I learned. I also figured the law was not for me.
What is Possible…?
If you listen to yourself carefully, your soul will always lead you to things that interest you. All you need to do is listen. Most of us spend a lot of time doing things that other people want and not enough time doing what lights us up. What lights you up? Start there. Even if you don’t know what the next step is, just open yourself to possibilities and you will get the next step. Trust in yourself, you have all the answers within you. You have every you need to make your dream life possible.
Till next week.
