Moving from now to success
When you think about how life will be when you have achieved your dreams, how does your business operate daily? Do you have more staff, how much confirmed work do you have? How much in the pipeline? Do you advertise or do people approach you? What product or service are you offering the market? What resources do you have?
Now think about today. Do you have the capacity or capability to operate in that way today? If, not do you have a plan to bridge this gap.
Can you match your future value and market need against the capacity and capability you have to fulfill it today? Do you have a plan to address the gap?
What you do today and tomorrow will determine your future. Anything is possible with the right mindset.
I grew up in a low socioeconomic environment where emotional and physical safety was not always tended to. My parents had to work incredibly hard to provide food and necessities for myself and my siblings. From a young age I was determined to shape a better future for myself. At the time, I was not sure exactly how, but I knew my goal would be achievable if I worked hard enough. Transforming my life was far from easy, but after multiple knock downs and bumps in the road I achieved the imaginable future I strived for so long.
My story is not unusual. There are plenty of people that can attribute hard work and determination to bridging the gap between where they came from and where they wanted to be.
As a child, Oprah Winfrey was frequently molested by multiple family members and teased by other children as she was so poor, she wore dresses made from potato sacks. Oprah went on to host the highest-ranking television program of its time for over 25 years.
J.K Rowling fled from her abusive husband with her 4-month-old daughter, which resulted in her living on welfare, in social housing, clinically depressed and suicidal prior to seeking help and completing the extremely popular Harry Potter series.
It does not matter where you have come from on your journey. Do not be consumed by where you are now if it is not a place you wish to be. If you are in a place you wish to be – that is AWESOME and good on you. What is important is where you want to be, and what actions you need to take to get there. Continue to set goals and make plans to achieve them. Recognise where you need further resources and work towards acquiring them. Continue to strive towards the imaginable future you deserve!
I always did something I was a little not ready to do. I think that’s how you grow. When there’s that moment of Wow, I’m not really sure I can do this, and you push through those moments, that’s when you have a breakthrough.
