There’s Power In Purpose
When you believe more in the purpose that lives in your heart than the fear, doubt & worry that previously held you back, an interesting thing occurs…
YOU NO LONGER HEAR THOSE THOUGHTS!
Fear, doubt and worry feels overwhelming, distracting and debilitating when we’re not grounded in something greater than these thoughts.
The “something greater” works well when you’ve associated a purpose or calling in with your endeavor…or you simply have a SUPER POTENT DESIRE around what you’re pursuing since pure desire cuts through without needing an “additional reason” to keep you aligned and motivated.
Most of us need an “additional reason” to keep showing up and moving through the doubtful thoughts.
We haven’t (yet) learned the power of pure desire or learned to hold a non-conflicted belief in our desires.
So we need some workarounds to help us gain confidence and sustained motivation in what we’re doing.
Associating a purpose or calling (i.e., a very strong “why’) with your endeavor is a great way to anchor yourself in something that keeps you moving forward, especially when fear, doubt and worry inevitably arises.
The more grounded we get in our reason for doing what we’re doing (our purpose, calling and/or why), the better we are at seeing fear, doubt and worry as something that can be moved through instead of completely blocked by.
Fear, doubt and worry appears quite large, overwhelming and debilitating when we don’t have something to counter them.
Our “why” serves as this counter weight, and in doing so, shifts and minimizes the magnitude of these types of thoughts.
It gives us something to re-align with. A core foundation to come back to.
When we’re afraid, doubtful and/or fearful, we can anchor in “I’m doing this because I’m called” or “I’m doing this because it helps xyz” or “I’m doing this because it provides a better life for my family”…and continue to show up and move through.
Believing in something as powerful and foundational as “your purpose”, “your calling”, “your why” (or simply having a super potent desire around something) CUTS through the noise such that you hear it less and less.
The more belief you have in what you’re doing, why you’re doing it and that you CAN do it, the less chance these debilitating thoughts have at pulling you into them.
With time, they begin to show up less and less in your awareness.
And even if they do show up, you have something stronger and more foundational to re-align to.
Whatever lives in your heart is ALWAYS bigger than these types of thoughts.
It just takes remembering this and acting on it.
As a coach, my job is to teach you to consistently remember the bigger truths about yourself and what you’re capable of being, doing, creating and expressing.
It’s to teach and remind you to re-align with beliefs, thoughts, ideas, and a mindset that is always bigger than what’s trying to trip you up.
In my one-on-one sessions, we look at what’s keeping you from believing in and embodying the version of yourself who is living a life designed around your heart’s desires in order to move into a more aligned way of seeing and being.
One of the ways we do this is by anchoring in a purpose, calling or “why” that’s bigger than whatever is trying to stop you.
With a willingness to see yourself and/or a past experience differently, you have all that you need to make these perceptual shifts about yourself.
Shifts can happen quickly when you’re willing to see things differently.
It often simply takes being exposed to another way of seeing.
Things can really speed up when your heart’s desires are bigger than the things that need to be shifted.
If you feel called to work with me, it would be an honor to serve you in this process.
I offer a one-on-one coaching package of 4 one hour sessions for $600. (Payment plan available).
The intention is to have a session (via phone or zoom) once a week begin immersing yourself in this new way of seeing and being.
If you have any questions about the coaching package and/or are ready to work together, email me at shannacovey@gmail.com.
Always Shine Brightly,
Shanna
