Do All of The Things Christine Dyan Thomson

Welcome back to another episode of "Do All of the Things." 
In our journey of growth and self-discovery, one of the most profound lessons we can learn is to find beauty in our imperfections and to celebrate the messy, imperfect aspects of ourselves and our lives.
 
When I first started on this podcasting journey, it felt like stepping into uncharted territory. There was this pressure to be flawless, to deliver perfect content every time. But as I've embraced imperfection, I've come to realize that it's in those raw, unpolished moments that true connection and authenticity thrive. So, today, I'm excited to dive deep into the art of embracing imperfection and how it can transform our lives.
 
You see, our society often glorifies perfection, whether it's in our personal relationships, our careers, or our appearance. But the truth is, perfection is an illusion, a standard that none of us can truly attain. And yet, we strive for it relentlessly, fearing judgment and rejection if we fall short. But what if I told you that our imperfections are not flaws to be hidden but gifts to be celebrated?
 
WHAT YOU’LL LEARN IN THIS EPISODE: The Perfectionism Trap: Explore the impact of perfectionism on personal growth and well-being, and discover how embracing imperfection can lead to greater fulfillment.
Cultivating Self-Compassion: Learn practical strategies for cultivating self-compassion and navigating the challenges of imperfection with resilience and grace.
Shifting from Fear to Courage: Discover how to overcome the fear of imperfection and embrace courage in taking imperfect action towards your goals.
Practicing Gratitude and Resilience: Explore the transformative power of gratitude in shifting your mindset from focusing on flaws to appreciating the beauty of imperfection.
Taking Imperfect Action: Learn how to embrace imperfection as a catalyst for growth and progress, taking small steps and celebrating victories along the way.

Hey there, my friends! Welcome back for another Mindset Minute. Today, I want to dive into a topic that's central to our lives: our work. Your job isn't just a way to pay the bills; it's an integral part of your life plan, deeply intertwined with your unique set of skills, talents, and strengths. When you align your work with these core values, the rewards go beyond just financial gain – there's a profound spiritual fulfillment that comes from doing what you love.
 
But how do you identify what truly matters to you? It starts with introspection. Take a moment to reflect on what ignites your passion. Are you driven by a desire to help others, or do you thrive in leadership roles? Understanding your strengths is crucial here, and a fantastic tool for this is StrengthsFinder 2.0 by Tom Rath. By recognizing and embracing your strengths, you pave the way for a more purposeful and fulfilling career.
 
So, here's a mantra to carry with you this week: "I do what I love every day." 
 
Now, I invite you to reflect: How can you find more passion for your current life? How can you find more passion for what you're doing right now?
 
Wishing you a beautiful day and an abundance-filled week ahead!

In today's episode, I’m sharing the importance of acknowledging accomplishments. This is a topic that emerged from a period of deep introspection and soul-searching in my own life. As someone who tends to focus on setting and achieving goals, I've often overlooked the importance of pausing to celebrate my wins along the way. This realization dawned on me during a recent phase of uncertainty and limbo in my personal and professional life, prompting me to slow down and reflect on the journey I've been on over the past decade.
 
Through this process of introspection, I compiled a comprehensive list of my accomplishments spanning the past 10 years. This journey has been both enlightening and humbling, as I've uncovered a myriad of personal and professional milestones that I had previously overlooked or dismissed. From forging meaningful connections with loved ones to achieving career milestones and pursuing personal passions, this exercise has provided valuable insights into my growth, identity, and aspirations.
 
As I reflect on this journey of self-discovery and recognition, I'm reminded of the power of gratitude and celebration in shaping our perspectives and fostering resilience. By taking the time to acknowledge our accomplishments, no matter how big or small, we not only honor our hard work and perseverance but also gain clarity and inspiration for the road ahead. Join me in this episode as we explore the impact of recognizing and celebrating our achievements, and learn practical strategies for incorporating gratitude and self-reflection into our daily lives.

How compiling a list of accomplishments can provide valuable insights into your personal and professional growth over time.
The importance of celebrating both big milestones and small victories, creating a sense of fulfillment and motivation for the future.

Hey there, my friends! Welcome back for another Mindset Minute. Today, I want to dive into a topic that's close to my heart: living your values. Each of us possesses a unique power system—a set of core values that guide our decisions and actions. These core values are deeply ingrained within us, and shaped by our experiences, beliefs, and aspirations. And here's the beautiful thing: when we align our lives (and our careers) with our values, magic happens. We experience a profound sense of internal happiness, and God responds in kind, rewarding us with flourishing relationships, fulfilling careers, and a life that truly resonates with our soul's deepest desires.
 
To start living your values, I invite you to reconnect with your childhood—the purest essence of who you are. Reflect on the things that mattered most to you back then. Maybe it was helping others, expressing yourself creatively, or immersing yourself in physical activities like dance. Your childhood holds the key to uncovering your authentic self and rediscovering the values that have always been within you. By identifying and embracing these values, you pave the way for a happier, more meaningful approach to life.
 
So, here's a mantra to carry with you this week: "I am in love with my life. I live my values and show up with integrity in all my interactions. My values are a reflection of my soul's deepest desires." 
 
Now, I invite you to reflect: What are your values?
 
Wishing you a beautiful day and an abundance-filled week ahead!

Welcome back to another episode of "Do All of the Things." 
In today's episode, let's dive into the concept of business hypergrowth, something that's become almost synonymous with success in the entrepreneurial world. From social media feeds flooded with promises of overnight million-dollar businesses to the relentless pursuit of scaling to astronomical revenue figures, the pressure to achieve MORE can feel overwhelming. But here's the thing: success isn't a one-size-fits-all equation, and bigger doesn't always mean better. As someone who's experienced the pitfalls of hypergrowth firsthand, I've come to realize that true success lies in aligning your business goals with your personal values and lifestyle goals.
 
So, with that said, I want you to know it’s okay to have a  “big enough” business. What does it mean to have a "big enough" business? It's about defining success on your own terms, considering factors like work-life balance, financial sustainability, and overall well-being. In this episode, we'll explore practical questions to help you assess your current situation and redefine what success looks like for you. Whether you're just starting out or already deep into your entrepreneurial journey, it's time to shift the narrative from chasing the money bag to building a business that supports your desired lifestyle. 
 
WHAT YOU’LL LEARN IN THIS EPISODE:  
The importance of defining success on your own terms as an RD Entrepreneur.
Practical questions to help you assess your current business situation and set realistic goals.
Strategies for achieving sustainable growth while maintaining work-life balance and overall well-being.
How to navigate the pressure to achieve hypergrowth and prioritize what truly matters to you.
Insights on redefining success and building a business that aligns with your personal values and lifestyle aspirations.

Hey there, my friends! Welcome back for another Mindset Minute. Today, we’re diving deep into the concept of true financial abundance. It's easy to get caught up in the belief that resources are limited, whether it's time or money, but I want to challenge that thought. Take a moment to examine the beliefs you hold about your circumstances. Are they serving you or holding you back?
 
As you observe others experiencing abundance and prosperity, see it as a reflection of what's possible for you. There's no need for a scarcity mindset when you realize that abundance is not a finite resource. It's about recognizing your own worth and embracing the flow of abundance into your life. So, as you go about your week, pay attention to the signs of wealth around you.
 
So, here's a mantra to carry with you this week: "My thoughts determine my prosperity. I am worthy of abundance, and I welcome it into my life." 
 
Now, I invite you to reflect: What outward expressions of abundance do you notice around you, and how do they align with your own desires?
 
Wishing you a beautiful day and an abundance-filled week ahead!
