 Live a Big Life

Why is it important to live your life big?   

Living bigger isn’t cause for overwhelm, or to even be complicated.  The idea of having a larger life is intended to provoke you, interest you, tenderly prod you into a broader vision of what is possible, like a horse whose blinders are removed and it can suddenly see through its peripheral vision.  The blinders protected the horse from being spooked or distracted from its job –  to win a race. 

Complacency contracts, makes life smaller.

We’re sometimes like that, anxious about the unknown and we think it's easier to wear blinders.  We become complacent with a misguided sense of satisfaction.  Usually it's because we  think we’re not strong enough, or capable enough or we believe someone else can do a better job.  The tendency is to pull back, not go after what we want, which only serves to mininize our lives.

Face your fears, trust your instincts and go after  your deepest dreams without inhibition.  You will see what you currently can't imagine as you expand your life beyond your greatest imagination as you use it, exercise it, allow yourself to believe there is more to see.
 

Just Show Up

It’s what happens when you put yourself in the driver’s seat.  You direct your life by participating, showing up, getting involved, getting out there and talking to people.

80% of success  is just showing up.  Woody Allen

It can be a supreme act of courage to just show up, to be open to the possibility, the opportunity, and the mystery that is always in the present moment.  Be eager to charge fearlessly into the unknown.

There is so much happening in the field of the Here and the Now and you don’t want to miss it.
 

Live bigger, have courage to tackle a dream, set an objective, and make a commitment.  You connect  to something bigger when you suit up and show up - you link up to a guiding force that wants you to thrive in life. The older you get, the more you will feel a sense of urgency to reach further.
 
That feeling of time running out is your friend - it will motivate you to live the life of your dreams, and that will do more to inspire people you care about and influence your world than anything you can do.  In addition, you will  meet the advancing years with an overriding sense of gratitude that you aren't carrying around  a large bag of regrets.


Where are you holding back?  Where would you like to expand?

Here is a step by step plan, time tested, and proven by many of the greatest minds, and most successful people the world has known.  These are simple steps anyone can do.  Don’t make it complex, just get started today:

1.       Make a list of all of your passions – the list can be as long as you need. Write them all down in a notebook you can refer to often.

2.       List your top three goals or desires that are the most pressing right now.  Example:  1) Get a job that empowers me and allows me to be self-sufficient; 2) find a better place to live; 3) do something creative that will pay me enough to quit my day job  (become an actor, writer, singer, entrepreneur, inventor, etc.).

3.       Pick the top one for now. Example: get a job that makes me feel empowered and self-sufficient.  Write it down.

4.       What is one action step you can take today?  Example:  You can make a phone call, talk to someone who is in the job you want to be in, look on Craig’s List, walk into the place you want to work and talk to a manager, sign up for a class, or collect information on putting together a resume, complete an online application without submitting it – you can polish it up after reviewing it with fresh eyes tomorrow or the day after.  Reach – you know how that ‘tug’ feels when you stretch yourself.  Feel the tug and smile.

5.    
   Remember, it’s not the results – leave those to God, the Universe, however you refer to the ‘something bigger’ in your life.  Make the connection to something bigger by taking one action step.  That’s the only part you play.

6.     
  Take an action step every day no matter what.

7.      
Now do this with the second item on your list, then repeat these steps with the third item.

8.       When you are finished, go about your normal business in the course of the day. Commit to doing this again tomorrow. Be content if you can only tackle one item on your list of Top Three wishes.

9.       Don’t stop. You are building momentum and the resources you need begin to show up in remarkable ways.

10.   The results will make a believer out of you and you will want to keep going in the direction of greater levels of success and wellbeing because it will be so much fun. Life stops being a struggle.

Don’t worry – you’re not alone. We all feel the pull of self-doubt and discouragement. You will discover power and strength that will quickly dispel any negative feelings you might have at first.

Taking a new step, uttering a new word is what people fear most.
