Where I was on May 25th (said during session with Nadine):
- I can’t go on like this any longer, if I did it would be like I’m settling and selling myself short.
- I am not making time for me. There has not been the space for this in my life.
- I’ve been sitting on the fence for the last two years, it has been a two-year trial period.
- I need to make some decisions, e.g. fall classes, sign a lease, etc.
- My own limiting beliefs about my abilities to be successful in a business capacity are probably the biggest obstacle.
- I have short-changed myself in my career aspirations my whole life and this needs to be smashed once and for all.
I’ve been lacking clarity for 20 years and it’s time to change that.
Where I want to go (stated on May 25th):
- I have a right to have a dream at this stage of my life.
- I want to get to the bottom of what I want to do and how I want to do it.
- The truth is I don’t care what the “end product” is.
- The bottom line is I want to find and live my passion and purpose.
- I want clarity on what I’m doing and a plan to get started.
- I am willing to do the work.
- I want more financial success and independence.
- I want to contribute more financially to the household.
- I want cohesion between what I want and how I live my life.
- My life depends on it, I cannot go back.
- There is no choice here. (Patti, I’d like to add another way of saying this: This is a choiceless choice.)
“When Nadine told me the price of this investment I gasped a little bit inside. I thought there is no way I can justify spending that much on this kind of work. I also worried that I wouldn’t be able to uphold my end of the bargain, or that I would somehow sabotage myself and it would be yet another “failure”.
But somehow I knew this time would be different. This time I had an accountability partner who would hold me up to my end of the bargain. I know that there is a gem inside of me waiting to shine and I just need a little help digging it out and polishing it up.”
