I’d always been a very guarded person, hiding behind my shield. Needless to say, I missed lots of opportunities, especially when it came to building meaningful connections. I spent most of my life trying to fit in, but ended up feeling like an outcast and deeply feared complete alienation. So when I got an opportunity to witness the Your Success Live event last weekend, I said “Yes” because something instantly connected with me. I’m glad I did it, because that weekend changed my life in a profound way. They say when you truly connect with yourself, you attract your real tribe, your match, your crew. And that’s what I found last Friday. The people, the learnings, Sharon Pearson’s warmth and giving a damn about us – everything combined to create that residual glow that I’m sure each of you are still feeling, just like I am. On Day 1, I had a breakthrough. I suddenly realised it was ALL me. I mattered more than I knew. There was no one coming to “save” me. I had to save me first, before I could even think of attracting positive energies to my life. That Sunday evening, I walked out as a changed person. That Sunday evening, I’d rewritten the story of my life. One weekend did change my life! It was SO amazing to see everyone’s openness and willingness to embrace change, happiness and true success. Everyone experienced their vulnerable side. We saw eye-to-eye, we released the pain and B.S. around the crud that we unknowingly protected all our lives, and made space for love and joy.

Be honest. You’re stressed out. You feel disappointed in yourself. You think you’re not doing enough, and that you don’t “deserve” success. It’s like being in a war, well not with actual guns and ammo, but the itch to “win” is there. You’ve done everything by the book, but success still eludes you. What gives? Here’s the thing: I see so many people stop dreaming, and start settling. It’s because they believe success is way too hard. It’s not doable. There’s not enough time. Not enough money. Not enough good ideas. For some reason, it’s out of reach for them. And as a result, they seem to have gone out of touch with their purpose, passion and drive to learn and grow. Is Success Hard? The answer to that question is yes and no. Let me explain. Many people fall prey to “Yeah but…” thinking. I have a friend who is jealous of his brother for being so fit. He’d like a body like that. When asked what’s stopping him, he’ll usually begrudge his brother’s fitness by saying something like: “Yeah… But he’s a slave to his fitness regime and runs 10 kilometres a week.” But isn’t that how success works? Nothing comes without a price tag. If you want something, you have to pay a price for it. But if you want it BAD enough, you won’t mind paying the price. If you’re not willing to pay the price, it’s time to cross that goal off your list and focus on something else. The place to start at is YOU. Perhaps your values are not aligned with that goal.
