Act as if it already happened! Because that's what sets the tone for your future and where you want it to go.
I don’t know about you, but these last few weeks in my life have felt rather surreal. We went from daily life to wondering if the folks passing us in the grocery store are someone we know because their faces are covered up in masks. I had the idea yesterday to write my name and a smile on my mask. We have a new normal folks and it’s here to stay for a while. How are you going to make the best of it?
I seem to be going through the different stages of grief. The first week home, my son and I were like okay this isn’t so bad, we can hang in our jammies and eat all day. My son told me that he’s trained his whole life for this. He loves being online with his friends all day. Week 1 went by in a blur, as did Week 2. By Week 3, I started to have feelings of grief and disbelief. I was mourning and didn’t even know it. I was mourning that I couldn’t just run to the grocery store for something quick. It felt kind of like when my son was a newborn and you have those pangs of not being able to go anywhere suddenly or quickly because you have the car seat, baby, diapers. Things have to be thought out in a much more hygienic way.
We settled into a new routine at the start of this week. It was while I was lying in bed last night that I got a very clear message that simply had three words to it. “Act As If…”. What the heck does that even mean Universe? Act As If…… I’ve since woken up, had my coffee and sat down with my journal to explore that a bit more in detail. What my interpretation is, don’t wait for the hard stop. Don’t wait to do things until this “time in history” is over. Start doing life differently now.
If we stay in action, our days will become more productive. If we stay in action, we can start moving our lives toward what we want to be when we come out of all of this. It’s not going to be that we just wake up one day and everything goes back to “normal”. I’m here to tell you folks that that is not going to happen. It may be more of a gradual re-awakening. Businesses we once loved, may be no more. It may make space for other things to come in that we love more. All we can do during these days is to create our own future. One of my favorite sayings is, “If you don’t know what the future holds, then create the future yourself.”. Say that out loud and think about how empowering that is.
I love to help folks. I love to help them shift their mindsets, businesses, futures, etc. With that in mind, I’ve decided to offer a six-week program called “Act As If”. I want to be here for you during this time of homebound days. By keeping you accountable to your goals/dreams, you can stay on track to step out of this trying time in history and into your new normal. Who do you want to be when this is all over? What would you have done differently if you knew this was going to happen?
Six weeks of weekly phone calls, energy clearings, and constant email support for you during a time when you may be starting to think that things will have to be different. Different times mean different operating systems. Our weekly phone calls will be 30 minutes of accountability, downloads and next right steps. I’m doing a similar program with my coach and it has been immensely helpful for keeping me on track and for those days when I do veer off track, it resets me rather quickly.
