Summary: <br> "If a man loses pace with his companions perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer. Let him step to the music which he hears, however, measured, or far away." - Henry David Thoreau<br> <br> MARCH TO THE BEAT OF YOUR OWN DRUM<br> EPISODE #42<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> #1 Tip: Meditate / Self-Reflect<br> -This can be done through a variety of ways: meditation, yoga, prayer, journaling, running or movement, self-analysis<br> -You will never know the beat of your drum if you don't first slow down to listen<br> <br> <br> #2: Action Steps for you to break the habit of going with everyone else's beat and learn to more clearly hear your own.<br> <br> (1) Stop Comparing / (2) Believe and Listen / (3). Maximize<br> <br> <br> (1). Stop Comparing<br> <br> Stop trying to dance someone else's dance! I have two tips for you here:<br> <br> (a). Self-analysis on your own pace. We all work at different paces.<br> <br> (b). Horse blinders.<br> <br> <br> (2). Believe & Listen<br> <br> Believe that you have the courage to go against the flow. Believe that you are confident enough in yourself not to follow the crowd. <br> <br> Listen to your heart. You have to not be afraid to dance to your rhythm, let go of who is watching. <br> <br> <br> <br> What do I really want?<br> What is my persistent dream?<br> What calls to me over and over?<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> (3). Our job is to maximize our gifts, not change them<br> <br> We are called to nurture and mold who we were created to be...not change it or force it to fit society's accepted mold.<br> <br> Let go of caring about what other people think of you. <br> There is an inner consciousness within you that holds the answer to these questions, this is your Drummer.<br> <br> Things to be proud of yourself (ways I know you are for sure different):<br> -your story is unique<br> -your skills weave a tapestry of talent no one else can claim<br> -your passions are in your for a reason<br> -you are planted where you are for a reason<br> -you have the potential to positively impact and love a group of people no one else has been given<br> -you have been entrusted with a unique personality that is meant to shine<br> -your eyes see the world in a way that no one else does<br> <br> <br> <br> Through honest self-analysis, believing in yourself and listening to your heart, you will achieve all that you desire. <br> <br> CONNECT WITH TRISH! <br> <br> Trish on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/trishblackwellfitness<br> Private Podcast Subscription: http://www.trishblackwell.com/register<br> Get coaching from Trish: http://www.trishblackwell.com/confidencecoaching<br> Trish's Apps: http://www.trishblackwell.com/trish-shop<br> Things Trish Recommends: http://www.trishblackwell.com/recommendations
