From Dreaming to Doing
Ok, wow! Time is flying.
Our March event was AMAZING! The fabulous and amazing Kat Davis was our guest speaker for the day and she challenged us to take our DREAMING to DOING (the right stuff). Kat’s talk was packed full of great stuff to get us thinking… and more importantly to get us focused on how to bring our dreams to life.
But there were two things that Kat shared that have kept me thinking:
F.E.A.R. – yeah, when we talk about our dreams, this word usually is swirling in our head somewhere. Kat gave us two acronyms for the word fear. We can choose to:
1) Fear Everything And Run
or
2) Face Everything And Recover
I just love this! It’s really got me thinking every time I’m facing a challenge to my dream. Am I going to fear it and run or am I going to face it? How about you?
The other biggie that stuck with me was when she was challenging us about what we say “yes” to and what we say “no” to. She shared this continuum that was a great visual for me:
Careless ————————————- Obsessive
We can easily find ourselves carelessly saying “yes” to everything or we might be on the other end obsessively protecting our time and our sanity and screaming “no” to everything. Kat challenged us that somewhere in the middle is where we respect ourselves and choose to say “yes” or “no” to the right things.
How do you related to all of that? Are you beginning to take the steps from dreaming to doing?
