How YOU Can Be Your HEALTHIEST Self

How YOU Can Be Your HEALTHIEST Self

I used to be a runner. Not growing up, not in my 20’s but in my 30’s I became a runner.

I did the Chicago Marathon, and many triathlons including a 1/2 Ironman.

After 6 years of races and tri’s I decided to hang it up. I literally pictured screwing big hooks in the ceiling of my Lincoln Park apartment and hanging up my bike, my shoes and my wetsuit. I was done! So done!

I never went back to races. Everyone said I would but I didn’t. I still work out. And don’t get me wrong I work out hard. I’m in better shape now than I was then.

And then recently my husband started running. What?! He’s 41 and has never run in his life. Since I love to spend time with him I started running with him. And as you can imagine, a race comes up.

Yesterday I ran my first 10K in ten years. And get this. It was easy. I felt awesome. I had run a few 3 mile runs but that was it.  And I finished in under an hour, with a negative split, feeling great!

I tell you all this to remind myself and you that ANYTHING is possible. We CAN create the health and fitness that we dream of. At ANY age. Stop with the excuses. End the negative self talk. It’s ALL possible.

After doing that yesterday I signed up for a 9 mile race. Why? Because CHALLENGE creates CHANGE. And I want to push my limits and create something new.

My friend Allie LeFevere and I created a great FREE challenge, for any of you who are ready to SHIFT YOUR SHIT and create something new too.  It starts tomorrow Oct. 20th.  We deliver to your email short video content and homework every other day for 10 straight days to help you banish those excuses, limits, negativity and live a life you love again.

I hope you’ll join us

And let’s sign up for a race together!

Get Happi Now Video – Create Your Dream Life Faster

I had an amazing weekend here in Chicago.

Spent an entire day with one of my mentors Mike Dooley. He’s a POWERFUL and very POSITIVE author and the man behind “The Notes From The Universe.” If you don’t get them yet you MUST. Every day you get one it will feel like it was written just for you. One of my favorite things to do every morning!

You can find them here: www.tut.com

His workshop reminded me how IMPORTANT it is to focus on the GENERAL end result of what you’re trying to achieve. Or what you want in your life. When we get attached to something happening one way, we limit the Universe. We can dabble in the details but dwell on the end result.

This is how I accomplished EVERYTHING I’ve ever wanted in my life. Literally. I use a lot of processes to do this and have been teaching it for over 15 years. It’s literally what I would credit to the majority of the amazing things that I’ve created over the last 5 years. This and Lifebook (www.mylifebook.com) and the Byron Katie work (www.thework.org). So there you have it. Lots of fun resources. 🙂

Check out this video to hear why you need to focus on the END RESULT.

Now head over to my Facebook page and tell me what your new end result is.

3 Steps To Create More Incredible Experiences In Your Life

3 Steps To Create More Incredible Experiences In Your Life

Why do some people seem so much luckier than others?

Does it ever feel like you’re living the same year over and over again while other people are living exciting, edge of their seats, fun, wild adventures?

I used to feel that way. Until recently. Now I feel like I’m consciously creating TONS of epic adventures in my life.

And I believe it’s our God given right to live this life as we choose. Having as much fun as possible. Finding all the joy along the journey that we can muster.

If you want more epic, fun, exciting experiences in your life, here are the simple steps you can take to create MORE incredible experiences in your life.

Step 1. Ask for them.

Don’t be afraid to ask for what you want. I love to announce and declare how much I love to travel. I also don’t give in to the common American way of thinking that the harder we work and the less we live the more we’re winning at life. If you want epic experiences you have to ask for them. Be bold. Get out there and announce and declare the life you want to have. If it includes luxury, tropical trips, family time, romance, adventure. Whatever it is YOU want, ASK FOR IT. Don’t be shy. Don’t be afraid. Put it out there.

Step 2. Allow it.

Now you have to get keen to the art of allowing. Which boils down to being happy. The happier and more grateful you are for your life right now. The more epic stuff that will come to you. So just how happy can you be?! You don’t have to be doing epic exciting stuff to be happy. You can be happy doing anything that makes you happy. Be happy riding a bike. Be happy laying in the grass. Be happy listening to music. What makes ME happy will be totally different from what makes YOU happy. So do what makes YOU happy. Think of it as a magic elixir to epic experiences. Happiness breads epic experiences.

Step 3. Say YES

I guarantee you that you’ve had multiple incredible experiences that you have allowed to pass you buy. I recently got invited to an epic wedding in Austin Texas. It was the weekend before I was leaving for Europe for one of my all time favorite conferences Awesomeness Fest. My first thought, “Oh my God, I HAVE to go to this!” My second immediate thought was,“Oh shoot, I can’t, I’m going out of town the next weekend.” I was allowing the typical Mom guilt of leaving my kids to prevail over my decision, but it kept calling me. “GO TO THIS WEDDING”.

What is the point in creating epic awesome experiences if you don’t take advantage of them? We have to say YES to those amazing experiences when they come our way. And by saying yes we create more of them. Happiness creates epic experiences and epic experiences lead to more epic experiences. When your heart says yes, don’t let your head explain it away. SAY YES and make create more memories, create more beauty, create more amazing experiences in your life today. Isn’t that what life is all about?!

What can you say YES to today?
