Happy Monday, Doll!
How are you?
Was the weekend a fab one, or what? It was pretty fab over here, minus Ryan’s sickness that he’s dealing with, which means I’M dealing with it cause he’s a wussy. I know this will never get to him because he doesn’t read the blog often, but why are men sooooo “cranky” when sick?? It’s the sniffles, seriously. Being the supportive partner I’m making sure he is well taken care of and full of liquids and easy foods to swallow…I swear he just drinks shakes….so I pack them full of greens and other super foods
Shhhhhh.
We did hit the road yesterday for a good team building BBQ at Ryan’s sister, Krista’s place!! It was awesome!
Today we’re kicking hesitation to the curb.
Bye-Bye!
When I sat back on Saturday night at a huge party we attended for the business, with the CEO of our company, I realized my hesitation has halted my success, my beliefs and most of my life. As I was sipping my go-tini and staring at a man that makes multimillion’s a year, has a new york times best seller and was once in gangs and dealing drugs to turn his life around with his passion for helping others, it struck me up my ombre head. I was stopping myself with hesitation.
When I take a stroll down memory lane I can actually see and feel the feelings in my past where I stopped myself from doing something because I was unsure which direction to take. I naturally would hesitate and miss out, even if my gut was telling me to go for it. I had a serious problem with indecision and lacking belief and joy in my decisions….not cool, especially for a gal with huge dreams!
I can even remembering if I should post certain posts being unsure if I’d ruffle too many feathers and then see someone touch base on the topic and get huge deals with other health blogs or mags. Hesitation, unclarity {even a word?!} and not listening to my intuition was killing all areas of my life!
While in Miami we heard a FABULOUS speaker named Joseph McClendon who completely rocked my day and world. He was talking on how hesitation will slow us down in life and I hung on his every word. I took notes like a crazy woman, my fingers were moving so fast on my iphone, I was sweating and at one point mascara started running down my left eye…..
Joseph works with Tony Robbins, so you know his shiz is GOOD!
Reality is, we’ve all come up against hesitation and I know because I know it do it often, I leave magnificent things on the table due to my hesitating. This world we live in is meant to be abundant and to be free, to feel pleasure in daily life and to live your dreams, but where are you tying yourself up and not allowing you to move forward? What are you hesitating on even if you feel its grand in your bones?
What I took away from the Miami event and have been applying to my daily life, which I believe with my ticking heart you should too, is this:
Take out your iphones {or whatever smart phone you have, but here’s a tip…make it an iphone
} and place this in your calendar – “Remember Things I’ve Hesitated On & What I Missed Out On Because Of It” set this reminder to go off every 2 HOURS.
When your phone dings, sit and reflect for a minute where you hesitated, what you let pass by and how you’re going to NOT do this next time.
The way I get THROUGH my hesitation, my fears and my uncomfortableness is to TAKE ACTION! I never want to be in the place where I hesitated and missed the boat, I can’t count on my hands and toes how many times I let things pass due to lack of belief in myself and I never want that to happen again. This exercise when done for a week straight will really shine your flaws, make you feel them and make you want to change.
Trust me on this one, its working wonders for me! I’m a gal on a mission and I have a jam packed day full of new calls to prove it!
Comment Below! Do you feel that hesitation is a issue in your life?
To Your Glam Life,
xxoo

I totally agree with you Kris and I can so totally relate to what you’re saying. I have definitely missed opportunities by sitting on the sidelines trying to find the courage to go for it! This year we have lost two young friends to cancer and it has really made me think about going after what I want NOW instead of waiting until the perfect time because frankly there is no more perfect time than the present. I do not want to look back at my life with regret — I definitely want to say that I had the balls to go for what I wanted and that I had a happy life and found success because of my own hard work and action.

I have felt tons of hesitiation in my life and that is why I am currently still working where I am working. I’m honestly scared to leave my job where I am not happy and try something else. I’ve always wanted to try something else but still am afraid to take that leap. I’m slowly trying to get my head out of that sort of game but it is very hard.
I do agree that hesitation does slow you life down and hold you back. Currently I am living example of this.

oh yes hesitation…fear always holds me back. I am slowly working on not hesitating but I tend to think to much, to worry and worry. My goal is to first be more positive about things I decided to do, and then hopefully I will hesitate less.
