Dare to Grow

I Dare You !

With a New Year beginning, how about as a new years challenge – I Dare You To Grow !

You know the current deal – You get up, you go to work, you come home, you get up, you go to work, you come home. Chances are  2018 will go by just like the year before and the year before that. Nothing ever changes. Except your a year older and you’ve wasted another precious year.

Let’s face it, pushing yourself isn’t easy nor is it a safe place, it can be fraught with danger !For some of us, through our insecurities and fears, we continually create our own resistance in allowing ourselves the opportunity to progress.

If you’re being honest, deep down you truly know, you could have done more to progress your world but unfortunately that didn’t happen and time just continued to go by.

Can 2018 be the year it all changes – you bet it can, if you really want it to !!

I’m not necessarily talking about financial progress, there’s a lot more to a great life than just financial wealth. Coincidently, financial progress will follow with your improved motivation and energy which combined, increases your productivity and value.

But what I’m really asking is do you think you have kept growing as a person over the past year? Continual learning, reading, travelling, maybe spending time with other cultures or interesting people, the odd physical challenge, just honing your skills or interests –  your cooking skills, your music skills, or whatever tickles your fancy !

Let’s be honest, at some point in life we have all been guilty of taking the easy way out. We’ve all faced tough times for whatever reason, having a comfort zone to tuck ourselves away was a special place. But we needed to advance to keep growing.In time we had to step back outside of the cave.

Is it just pure laziness that’s become a habit – Ugh – laziness, seriously, it’s a genuine life killer. If you’re not moving forward you’re going backwards. It becomes a slippery slope.

How easy is it just to stay on the couch and watch the latest reality show rather than turn the TV off or put that damn mobile device down that’s controlling your life. Read that book, cook a great meal, pick up that guitar, take those dance lessons, start writing your own book or simply go for a jog or walk and actually have a conversation with your partner or kids.Get moving. You will feel happier and better about your world. There’s no joy in stagnation!

If you haven’t before, take the time to read the poignant and wonderful verse below ” Our Deepest Fear “.

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to manifest the glory of God that is within us. It’s not just in some of us; it’s in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.” – Marianne Williamson.

Now that’s thought provoking – So as we started the post – how about taking up the dare?

It’s going to be a great year to get into what life has to offer. So what’s the first challenge you’ve set yourself for 2018 ? I’d love to hear about it so please leave a comment – RD

  1. Hey mate, mine is going to be to stretch my thought on my career. Not to think ahhh maybe I’m not but rather maybe I am. Thanks for the chat bring on 2018

    • Thanks AV for your comment.
      Im sure you will achieve your goal.
      If we aren’t being stretched we won’t grow in our experience and skills.
      So often we think the competition is pretty tough but when you think about it, that’s not the case.
      Most exhibit a lot of talk but little action.
