Obstacles are always going to come up in life, especially when it comes to building a business or your ever-evolving health.
And they can feel incredibly discouraging. That block in the road at the most inconvenient times can leave you feeling like giving up and throwing in the towel.
But I'm here to tell you that there are ways to use obstacles that come up to your advantage.
In the episode, we cover:
- Everything is a matter of perception, and your perception determines your reality.
- Managing expectations to build confidence and resilience to better prepare you for the next obstacle.
- Why obstacles can be our greatest gift.
- The perceptions that others have of our obstacles: using that as motivation to fuel and propel you forward.
- What to do if you have a tendency to get sucked down a negative spiral when an obstacle stands in your way.
- Anticipating what might go wrong and using that to build confidence in your own abilities
I'm also sharing some personal stories around big obstacles that I've faced that have led to some of the best things in my life happening. Make sure to tune in for all the details!
Have you hit some obstacles or roadblocks and not sure how to handle them?
AUDIT YOUR NUTRITION & LIFESTYLE
I'm offering a handful of FREE 30 minute calls to audit your nutrition and lifestyle, because the two are so closely connected that we need to examine both to get you the change you want.
I can help you crack open some of those old habits so that you can start practicing new ones ASAP. Stop waiting for someone to give you permission, or for the "right time," whatever that looks like. There's no better time than right now, and that way you have new habits you can practice over the holidays and start the new year feeling better than ever, rather than bloated and guilty.
You deserve this. You deserve to stop giving up on yourself.
