Not thinking about what you want next year or in t Not thinking about what you want next year or in the next 3 years... is like driving randomly on the street with no destination.⁠ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠ It only becomes fun when your intention IS to not have a destination.⁠ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠ But most of the time this is not how we want to drive.⁠ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠ The reason why you're not thinking about what's next could be because...⁠ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠ 1) you simply haven't thought about it yet⁠ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠ 2) You're so busy putting your head down focusing on what's right in front of you⁠ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠ Of course, there's nothing wrong with that. Yet when this is all that you focus on, you miss out on the chance to prepare yourself now for what's to come in 2021.⁠ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠ I'm working with clients now to create results they want to have in 6 months, next year, in 3 years.⁠ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠ You make decisions now that will benefit your future.⁠ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠ You think ahead of time.⁠ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠ You place yourself ahead of the curve.⁠ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠ You set yourself up for success.⁠ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠ Doing this will save you TONS of time, effort, less panic and anxiety when Jan 1, 2021 hits.⁠ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠ Ask yourself:⁠ - What do I want to create in 2021?⁠ - What do I want to achieve in the next 3 years?⁠ - If anything is possible, what would I like to have happen?⁠ - What decisions/ investments/ opportunities can I take action on today, to achieve my long term results?⁠ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠ And when you have your answers, DM me or comment below!⁠ Let's brainstorm together and I'll cheer you on ⬇️⁠ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠ Shir⁠ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Don't take actions for the you today.⁠ Do it for Don't take actions for the you today.⁠ Do it for the you tomorrow.⁠ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠ Do if for the you 5 years from now.⁠ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠ Your decision today matters.⁠ you action today matters.⁠ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠ The future you is relying on what you do today.⁠ Don't let that person down.⁠ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠
I used to despise my pink jacket. Because I never I used to despise my pink jacket. Because I never liked to wear the color pink.⁠ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠ I prefer to wear black, white, and neutral colors. These colors are easier to match and they're more comfortable to be in.⁠ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠ Recently, I picked up the jacket and tried it on.⁠ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠ It actually doesn't look that bad, I thought.⁠ I can see myself wearing pink, I thought.⁠ I don't mind being more flashy and wear clothes that don't match as much, I thought.⁠ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠ The pink jacket is still the same.⁠ My thoughts about myself and what I'm capable of wearing has changed.⁠ So I approached this jacket differently.⁠ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠ Who you are can change over time and that's amazing.⁠ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠ Your taste can change.⁠ Your habits can change.⁠ Your opinions can change.⁠ Your beliefs can all certainty change.⁠ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠ 🔹Notice where you are using your past and who you are now as an indicator of who you will CONTINUE TO BE.⁠ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠ Just because you never liked pink, doesn't mean you won't ever like it.⁠ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠ Just because you feel insecure about yourself, doesn't mean you won't ever feel confident.⁠ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠ Just because you've given up on projects before, doesn't mean you won't ever follow through.⁠ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠ So don't limit yourself.⁠ Let yourself to be an ever evolving human.⁠ Then, prepare to be amazed.⁠ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠ Because where you are right now and what you think you're capable of, is really only the beginning.⁠ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠ All the love,⁠ Shir⁠ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Seasonal blue is a thing (Especially if you live i Seasonal blue is a thing (Especially if you live in a rainy & gloomy city like Vancouver right now ☔)⁠ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠ Believing this helps me make sense of why I'm feeling low lately and why it's hard to be more positive and motivated.⁠ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠ Yet at the same time, I don't use this as a reason to justify whether or not I have followed through with my schedule, worked out, or achieved a specific business goal.⁠ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠ If I use weather as a reason, then I'm letting something outside of my control determine what I can or cannot achieve for myself.⁠ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠ Instead, I choose to take 120% self-responsibility for all of my hiccups, problems, and failures.⁠ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠ Because only when I own ALL of my sh*t and drama, can I do the work around it.⁠ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠ This is how I can achieve what I want, EVEN WHEN I am seasonally depressed.⁠ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠ Because the thing is - Seasonal blue. Covid. The weather. Other people. Politics.⁠ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠ They do NOT have to be the reason that's keeping you from creating an amazing life for yourself.⁠ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠ When we work together, we get to work to create what we want DESPITE everything else that's happening in our lives and with the world.⁠ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠ No, it's not hustle.⁠ And it's definitely not avoidance (we face our problems head on).⁠ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠ 🔹It's radical self-responsibility and a commitment to ourselves and our future.⁠ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠ Rooting for you,⁠ Shir⁠ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠ PS. Learn how to be self responsible and hold your own commitment to yourself.⁠ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠ Create the right focus, habits, energy in your daily life.⁠ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠ All of this is within your control. It's not rocket science.⁠ I can show you how.⁠ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁠
