As a young married, I kept thinking, “as soon as I have been married 10 years, then I can help other marriages.”
As a young mom, I kept thinking “as soon as my kids get bigger, then I can help other moms.”
As a homeschooling mom of six, I kept thinking, “as soon as my kids have gotten through all the stages successfully, then I can inspire others.
Waiting for everything to be perfect leaves me waiting. And waiting. And waiting.
While I “wait” to perfect my message, I watch others less experienced, less time in the game run circles around my dreams. Now hear me clearly, I am NOT saying I am smarter. But why have I waiting all these years to take a leap of faith? What mindset has held me back for so long?
PERFECTIONISM
Reality- You will never arrive.
Will I ever have my act together? Know everything. Have the perfect balance of wisdom, hip and influence. Have perfect kids, perfect marriage, the perfect house.
“There is never a ‘perfect’ time to begin any new adventure. You become more and more equipped for the journey while you’re on it.” -Zig Ziglar
Believe in your calling. Your dream!
If you are overwhelmed just being mom, I believe you are already fulfilling your purpose by loving on the little people suffocating the life right out of you. BTY- this too shall pass.
If you have been waiting…. STOP! Take one step toward your dream… your goal. Believe in what is burning inside of you.
Mindset: Are you waiting or stalling? Waiting at a stop sign for the light to change is much different than sitting at an intersection when your car has stalled. Both situations are in the same location but the outcome is way different. One is ready to move the other can’t move.
Are you ready to move when opportunities arise?
According to Webster, another word for stalling is wasting time. Ouch! I have done my fair share of wasting time.
You are never too young or too old to invest in your dreams.
Start today.
Tiny steps are still forward motion.
Take inventory of the next three months and write out a goal that can be achieved to get you closer to your dreams. After WRITING IT OUT…. create actions steps with a date on them. You can always adjust if needed.
STOP stalling and get ready… Dream. Believe. Create.
Our children watch daily as we navigate towards our calling. Stand tall as you lead the next generation of leaders within the walls you call home.
Having a family was my dream.
Molding world changers is my calling.
There is more, much more. Together with God “all things are possible.”
