Instead of beating yourself up for not reaching your goals, measure how far you have come and take a listen to this shortie episode on how to quickly and easily stop making excuses.

Listen, excuses are just challenges, and we’re going to chat about how to overcome these little challenges that are preventing you from living your best life. 

I won’t lie; excuses come up for me ALL THE TIME because our brains are wired to protect us.  In fact, for most of my life, I’ve held myself to a really rigid set of goals – and if I didn’t learn how to simple ways to overcome excuses, I’d never reach my goals!

In this episode, I’m going to share 5 ways you can quickly pivot and stop making excuses.

  1. BELIEF SYSTEM -  Setting our intentions and setting our goals (check out podcast episode #3 to hear all about my goal-setting process.)
  2. CLARITY - What is it that you need to do?
  3. FOCUS- how to focus on what needs to be done and one ‘ah-ha’ moment that can change your life as you get crystal clear on what you want to focus on!
  4. FAITH - There is so much good vs. evil going on in the world right now.  I share my empathic thoughts.
  5. GRATITUDE - More reasons to start wring down what you are grateful for!
