Many people have been reluctant to dream big because they are anxious about how they can accomplish their goals.

 

True, no dream will become a reality unless you take action. So, how do you do it?

 

When I first dreamt about climbing Mount Everest, I also daydreamed about a plan.

 

I created an Excel spreadsheet with a list of all the skills I need to learn as well as some smaller mountains I need to climb.

 

With no previous experience in mountaineering or physical training, I had no idea if that plan was even remotely feasible at the time. I didn’t know how long it took to learn each skill and improve my fitness level. They were all just daydreams.

 

As a result, I called the spreadsheet “my dream.”

 

Then I looked at which ability I thought would take the most time to master and decided to begin there. So the following weekend, I signed up for an introduction to rock climbing class with a local guiding company.

 

One step led to another. From there, I met people who advised me on the next step, and the next step…

 

So, what is the lesson here for you?

 

You don’t have to know “how” to get all the way towards your dream.

 

All you need is to identify the first tiny step.

 

While you are dreaming big, your focus is on the “present”.

 

Identify the first small step and concentrate on making progress toward that goal.

 

Every little achievement will boost your confidence and open the door for your next step.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I understand how daunting even the first small step can be! I’ve been there before.

 

It requires you to believe in your dream. It’s not easy to be optimistic until you can see the path!

 

You want to know another secret?

 

Don’t do it alone.

 

No one gets to the top alone.

 

I was grateful for the coaches and guides I met along my journey who showed me the door, shortened my learning curve, and gave me the confidence to step into unknown.

 

You don’t have to do it alone.

 

It would be my pleasure to be your coach, partner, and guide while you work toward your dreams! Why not sign up for a free Visioning and Goal Setting session with me and let’s explore your impossible dream together?

Last week, we discussed what makes a goal truly exciting. Is it really possible?

Why do you need an impossible goal?

If you want to have a totally different lifestyle, want to reach a scary new height in your business, you can’t simply do what you used to do and hope that will give you a dramatically different result.

You have to change how you think and try things you have never done before.

You have to create new routines and adopt new habits.

In short, you have to totally transform who you are in order to behave totally differently.

Only an impossible goal has that kind of power to trigger an identity shift!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

When you’re standing at the bottom of the mountain as that “old” you, a goal seems impossibly high. And since most people only know the “old” you, they are blind to the new opportunities.

To achieve that seemingly impossible goal, imagine yourself as someone who has already accomplished it and see yourself as someone who considers such a goal to be “normal.”

When you make that important identity shift, you will easily adopt a new mindset and new habits as if your dream is already a reality.

When I dreamed about climbing Mount Everest, the excitement made me forget about the “impossible” part of the dream. On a daily basis, I only focused on what an Everest climber eats, trains, and thinks about.

That excitement made overcoming fear and procrastination easy.

Before I noticed, I transformed myself from a city girl to a mountaineer, and from there, a motivational speaker and coach.

The power of an impossible goal is not just in achieving something you are proud of, but in totally transforming who you are, elevating your energy to a level you never experienced before, and setting you on a trajectory of infinite possibilities.

What’s something you are dreaming of but people are telling you it’s impossible?

I believe you have the power in you. If you dare to dream it, you can achieve it!

Do you sometimes feel overwhelmed by social media? Everyone else seems to be having a good time, but you feel like there’s nothing to be excited about in your life?

Just read on, let me show you the excitement in your life that is worth celebrating!

What excites us the most, as I discovered from my years of climbing in remote locations, is not the summit itself, but the path we took, the difficulty we overcame, and the breakthrough we experienced.

Excitement we seek does not come from outside us. The beliefs we hold and the actions we take, as well as the personal growth we experience on this journey, all contribute to our excitement.

True excitement is an emotion that comes as a result our own actions. So you don’t have to wait for something outside to happen. You have full control of it!

And you don’t need to do something so dramatic like climbing Mount Everest to experience true excitement.

Start by looking for moments of excitement in daily life, and practice feeling excitement inside you.

For example, do something as a self love to yourself and add something beautiful to your life; or show some love to your neighbor or a stranger, brightening up the day of another person adds excitement to both sides.

Excitement is the most contagious feeling. Join a group of like-minded people and inspire each other!

Just a tiny action every day, you will learn to discover more excitement in your life, create more excitement for yourself and everyone around you, and you will feel more genuine excitement inside you!
