Go Live

A year ago if you told me I would be featured on tv telling my secret I would have said “Never”. If you told me I would run a 5K I would have said “With this fat behind?–NEVER”. Or told me I would attend a writers conference in NYC I would have said “….I’m just a blogger, a published writer-Never”.

The thing about the word never is the more you put it out in the universe the more you are holding yourself back from the living the best life you could lead. What about making a vital attempt to think about all of the things you always dreamed of having the courage to do, and changing the nevers into “I’ll try”.

I think with age we all get less whimsical and more fearful. We can’t imagine putting ourselves out there and looking like a fool. We limit ourselves with our on limitations.

There is no other person in this world holding you back other than yourself.

Think about this. NO ONE.

So when you are in the moment of “never” and about to cruise into the “because so and so…” you need to stop in your tracks, point your thumbs to yourself, and think about the change you are willing to make happen. If you are unwilling and would like to live your life in the confines of your own built walls–press on. However, if you dare to live your life fully, purposely, and less predictable, try the things that you fear you may fail at. It may just show you your own strength, the most important life lessons, and be the very thing you are meant to live your life through.

I am going to be on tv with my best kept secret unfolded. I ran a 5K regardless of my size. I went to a conference ALONE about writing, and starting to write a book. All in less than six months I have grasped three things I told myself I could never do–and I DID!

You can to. You just need to tell yourself it can happen.Allow your self to break free of the walls you built. Blame others less, and take responsibility for your own life.

Go Live.
