Hey Babies!
Where is my mind?
It's December.
Some of you might be thinking of this month as the ending to something, but for me? It's the beginning of something great. If you've taken the time to listen to any of the recent episodes of the show, you'd know that I'm on a whole new path. About time honestly. And no, I'm not waking up at 5am to strive for perfection or anything. I haven't lost my spunk. But I somehow managed to hack the system. I figured it out in my own little way. How to finally start executing those baby steps. I gotta say, it feels really good.
I've shared everything else with you. The bad, the worse, the ugly. So now I'm gonna share my little secrets to success--and it's not that complicated. If I can pull it off with all my issues, you can damn sure do it.
Step 1: Write Your Best Life
I kicked off this journey in a surprisingly traditional way – with pen and paper. There's something so real about physically writing down your dreams. It makes them more tangible, more personal. I wrote down every aspect of my dream life, categorizing them into physical, spiritual, romantic, social, family, adventure, financial, and hobbies. It was like a heart-to-heart with my future self.
Step 2: Break It Down
Next, I turned to the digital world. I opened up Word and began dissecting each dream into actionable steps. This was about taking those grand visions and asking, "What's the easiest thing I can start doing right now?" It’s about finding the most doable steps that inch you closer to your ultimate goals.
Step 3: Make a List, Check It Twice
Here’s where it gets real. I identified the barriers – mine was discipline. Then, I crafted a plan to overcome them. I used Notion, a fantastic free tool, to set goals across different aspects of my life - mind, body, soul, career, hobbies, and social. The goals were simple yet impactful, like reading a book for the mind or meal planning for the body.
Step 4: Go Forth and Do It
This step was all about action. I created checklists in Notion for daily, weekly, and monthly tasks. Each checklist was a roadmap to my dreams, turning every tick into a step closer to my goals. From waking up at a specific time to posting on LinkedIn, every action was a piece of the puzzle.
This process is a blend of the old and the new - the thoughtful, depth-inducing practice of writing by hand, and the efficiency and clarity of digital tools. It’s about finding what works for you, what makes your dreams scream a little louder and your actions a little bolder.
So, as we roll through December, let’s not just dream, let’s act. Let’s use this month as a springboard into a year where we not only set goals but achieve them. Grab your pen, your phone, your laptop – whatever tools you need to turn your dreams into plans, and then into reality.
Here’s to a month of transformation, a year of achievements, and a lifetime of living the dream. Stay dreamy yet driven, and let's make it happen. Be a star. 🌟✍️💻🚀🌌
OH! And if you're feeling extra generous, like a fairy godparent of the podcast world, consider donating to support the show. Why? Because producing this magic isn’t just unicorn farts and fairy dust – it takes time, effort, and yes, cold hard cash. Your donations help keep this dream alive and kicking, and ensure that I can keep spilling the tea, the wisdom, and the occasional f-bomb (because let's face it, sometimes a ‘fuck’ just expresses it best).
So, rate, review, donate, and most importantly, keep slaying those goals. Here’s to stepping into the New Year not just dreaming big, but doing big. You've got this, Babies. Now let's show the world what we're made of – stardust, spunk, and a sprinkle of sass!
