Whenever I start something new + big, I CRY.
What I’m about to share goes against marketing training and protocol.
But, heck. I don’t enjoy the level of success I do today because I’ve gone with the CONVENTIONAL teachings, right?
As I was saying. I cry. And in this moment, I’m having to remind to myself what I teach my clients… that our emotional intelligence is an ASSET to our success!
It’s the day before my site goes LIVE for my 6th Annual Summit. I haven’t done the video because it’s been raining and my eyes are red from tears.
This is NOT what I was going to post for my day before message!
It was going to be brimming with excitement. You know? The kind that entices you to want to hang out with me because I’m so cool.
Instead? I’m a blubbering mess overwhelmed with what I’ve set forth… feeling the dissonance between where I’ve been and where my purpose is taking me.
Might this make you turn away from tuning into the interviews?
I don’t know.
But I wouldn’t be a convincing leader of a new paradigm who proclaims that we DESPERATELY need leaders who are transparent and real if I just pretended that all that is going on behind the scene’s of this launch is sunshine and roses.
Not only that.
When it comes down to it, if you’re repelled by this kind of authentic share then you actually won’t WANT to join the interviews. Because we get real. And my life force is too
precious to waste it with people who are “kinda sorta” in.
Don’t get me wrong. I’m SO excited for this years summit. I get to interview stellar top notch women about what we are doing that is DIFFERENT from what we’ve been taught — in
order to help you attain a more authentic way of living your success and wealth.
Here’s what I know. Crying before (and during) something NEW + BIG is a good thing. Here’s why:
* GROWTH REQUIRES LETTING GO. It just does. You can’t carry on with the same ole’ patterns of thinking and being and expect to grow into the next version of your wonderful self.
* TEARS OPEN OUR HEARTS TO WHAT WE CARE ABOUT. I care about this work. Deeply. My tears get me in touch with my passion
(Rather than remaining all heady about the “plan”, which can disconnect us from the WHY of our mission).
* GETTING OUT OF THE WAY. Yep. I just need to get out of the way so that this mission – which is bigger than me- can express itself fully. My agenda. My personality. My attachments. I release them through my tears so I’m an open vessel willing to serve.
Ok. Here I go. I’m going to hit the “send” button now!
