118 Lean In

May 14, 2024 | Uncategorized

Hey, this is Anne with Your Coaching On The Go. 

I am here to ask you a few questions and get you to sense around your ability to expand and step up.

When you get to a spot where you feel like you have given it all you’ve got, like Scotty on Star Trek, you can’t give anymore, you’re on your way to something and additional things need to be taken care of when you are already fully extended, you are giving it your all, then there is more being asked of you, how can life deliver so much to you that needs to be taken care of at one time?  (Wow, long dramatic, run-on sentence! Whew!)

You may have been envisioning something incredible, and you are so in the flow that the flow is coming at you BIG.

You’ve got a lot of opportunities at your fingertips, and don’t know how to sustain it.

That’s where overwhelmed or the feeling of too much comes in.

How do you respond to that?

I used to get sick when I would do too much, and when I started thinking about that.

It went deeper.

It was a reaction that I would have.

When you think about it, everybody has the same amount of time. 

Some people are incredibly engaged every day and run multiple businesses.

Some of the real movers and shakers in the world are operating at such a high level with so much productivity.

I want to propose to you today that you always have another level.

One of the ways you can step into that is by knowing that you were born for this life.

You are specially designed for whatever is coming towards you in your life. 

Your life is the only one exactly like it.

You are getting an opportunity to pick and choose what you want. 

Multiple times when I’m ready to take a giant new step, I have things like my land project coming up next door, and I get to fill out a storyboard and work on an investor’s pitch.

All sorts of things are coming at me at the same time that I didn’t plan on. 

I have a couple of choices.

One is I can, I get sick and I am sick. 

Another choice is I can start passing on things. 

In that case, I start to slow my momentum down. 

You get to choose that and there’s nothing wrong with it. 

But I just want to inform you that you always can handle it all.

You can do it all. 

It takes (a powerful) mindset. 

It takes a stepping into your big girl and boy pants. 

It takes an openness to how it could get done, how you could do it all, and that it’s possible. 

There is a saying, “100% Is Possible 100% of the time”. 

There is also a saying, “You can have BOTH, AND”. 

If you want it all, you get to step into your Master Creator energy, curiosity and possibility and ask yourself, “How can I have it all?” 

“How can I get this done?”

“How could this happen?”

You’ll start to discover shortcuts. 

You’ll start to discover partners, collaborators, and ways that things can get done that you didn’t think could before.

You are standing in the question of how this can happen. 

What’s possible here?

You get to choose your game in this life. 

You get to choose the chapter you are in. 

You get to choose the speed with which you are going.

I’m at the point where I have built up a great base of understanding and knowledge. 

I can contribute on the highest level I’ve ever contributed.. 

Instead of shrinking back now with all my experience, the game I’m choosing is to step up when things get big around me, instead of stepping back.

I lean in.

If you haven’t been doing that, I challenge you to do it because when you lean in and don’t make any excuses, and feel that the pressure’s getting bigger, you start looking around for resourceful possibilities instead of choosing to be a victim.

The biggest shifter for me is when I decide to stand in complete responsibility. 

“I am the creator here, the co-creator.”

“This is my choice, this life, and the direction I’m taking it in… my choice.”

There is a lot of power there.

If you’re a balance and you have victim and you have responsibility…Victim or Powerful Creator?

It’s natural to dip back and forth as scenarios change. 

But then which one do you pick? 

There is no right or wrong to any of your choices.

You get to choose.

It’s your life. 

You get to take it in your own time, in your way, you are crafting it. 

So I’m stepping in, I’m leaning in.

Sometimes I wonder what other people around me are thinking, who aren’t coming in with me.

But that is happening rarely because once you step into responsibility, full scale, level four responsibility where you are responsible for everything, everything that happens around you in your life, everything is yours.

Once you put your arms out and scoop everything up into you, you stop looking outside to blame, shame, or for excuses. 

All the energy you would have used for those excuses is used creatively to come up with a way you can step up to the next level. 

The step is a little high.

You are going to have to push off to get up. 

You’re going to create some inertia. 

The inertia is taking or standing in your power, and stepping fully into responsibility, and owning it.

You are here and “if it’s to be, it’s up to me”, if it’s to be, it’s up to you!

You are the one who can pull it off. 

That’s the coaching for today…more opportunities to think about how you choose to operate, particularly if you have asked for more, have a big amount on your shoulders, and feel overwhelmed. 

I hope that supports you today. 

We’re going to continue engaging with this. 

Have a beautiful day. 

Sending you love.
