“I think we both know you can do it.  The thing you just thought about.  The thing you want to do, the dream, the goal whatever it is.  You know you can do it.  Maybe you’re worried that it’s outside your comfort zone.  Maybe you’re worried it will take you to places you’ve never been before.  Or it might be hard and uncomfortable but you CAN do it.  And deep down you know that.  You look at people doing it and you’re inspired, you know you should be there too.  So maybe this is your sign to do it.  To chase the dream, to do the thing.  Because deep down we know you can.  Once you realize that and you accept that, it’s going to be beautiful.  You just have to take that first step. You just have to believe it enough and then it can all fall into place.  And it will.  Just time we go for it,” Harrison Davis.  Mindset is key to all we do and it may take years to understand the depths and layers of what we need to unpack.  We may think we have it, that we’re over it, past whatever was holding us back, when suddenly the trigger hits and we’re left feeling helpless again.  True strength and belief in self is so powerful.  It’s something innate we talk ourselves out of, but we can learn to get it back.

Allow for the small wins.  Remember that each win, no matter how small compounds and builds strength and trust in self.  Those little moments that we feel are mistakes and we think have been so destructive to our path turn out to be exactly what we needed.  Sometimes that path had to be redirected or shifted a little bit and we wouldn’t have gotten where we needed to be if fate didn’t step in.  We always have the choice to believe a hindrance is helpful or harmful.  We can get annoyed with it or we can take the lesson and be grateful for it.  All it takes is that series of wins and incorporating the lessons we learn to establish belief in ourselves.  Everything we’ve ever done has brought us here and we have survived every “un-survivable” moment up to this point and we will continue to survive.  But the more we push past the doubt and insecurity and the fear, the more we see we can reply on ourselves and accomplish what we want to. We know what we are capable of: don’t let the voice we picked up from everyone else tell us anything different.  Remember.
