Experience Life Sarah Jac

Hey girl- are you trying to control everything in your life? Isn't that exhausting? I know, me too.. I tried for so long to control everything, including other people and the world around me. I got burnt out, and what I learned is that you can't actually control anything except yourself, and how you respond to the circumstances and the people in your life. You were never in control anyways. I still struggle with this and I'm willing to bet you do too. Because what is underneath that control perfectionism self, is certainly something else. That something else aways includes fear. Fear of something, and you deserve to know what that fear is that is showing up as a controlling self, and standing in your way of living a more free life. Let's peel these layers apart as we talk about controlling tendencies and why its important that you seek course correcting these behaviors before they sabotage your life.

Ever have that nagging feel like you should be doing something else? Laundry, dishes, clean the house, work...but you really want to be doing something else? But you can't see to combat the shame of feeling like you earn a rest? Or you should have accomplished more of the do list before you took a break? ohhhh please tell me you have felt this way, I know I struggle with it. Let's talk about why we do this to ourselves and how our brain is truly comprehending the message we are sending it. 
As Steve Jobs once said "your time is limited, don't waste it living someone else's life." 

Ask and you shall receive- recently I did a survey on my IG stories asking what my listeners were struggling the most, an overwhelming amount voted for overcoming fear and self doubt. I suppose this makes sense especially during a time of a global pandemic where we are pushed to stay further inside of our comfort zones that makes us feel safe, when the outside world feels out of control. I am here to share with you my own experiences and the knowledge I have cultivated from these experiences in my own life.
 If you are struggling with fear and self doubt there is an undoubtable an underlying limiting belief. The only way you identify this limiting belief is to do the work and ask the questions to uncover what the limiting belief is in hopes of correcting it. But where did this even have the ability to develop? Somewhere along the way we relinquished control and allowed this belief to form. We are not born this way. 
Rumi has a quote that says "You were born with potential. You were born with goodness and trust. you were born with ideas and dreams. You were born with greatness. You were born with wings. You are not meant for crawling, so don't. You have wings. Learn to use them and fly." 
So how do ewe find these wings?

You do NOT want to miss this honest, educational conversation that I had with Dr. Meghan Hurley-Powell, better known as Dr. Meggy. Dr. Meggy is a professor of literature with a PHD, a writer, a podcaster and entrepreneur. Dr. Meggy joins me all the way from Iowa here on the Experience Life airwaves to talk about all the juicy things going on in her world. Meggy's shares with me honestly about how she has allowed our hustle and grind culture to stand in her way of reaching her goals in the past, and how to overcome this battle. She shares what has worked for her in the combat about self guilt, and the forever feelings of being unseen and unheard. This conversation is epic, as Dr. Meggy's responses had me on the edge of my seat speechless!

We all know that our thoughts drive our actions and our actions equal our results. In order to create the correct thoughts to take the actions I know I need to take for the results I desire, sometimes I rely on this helpful tool. Sometimes I chose words to come with me for the ride through the year, month, week or even day. Last week I chose the word execute. Join me on this episode where I share why I chose the word execute and how I desperately needed it in my life in order to clear space from my brain before all my energy was depleted. For if you never take action in the form of execution you may wind up procrastinating  too many thing and derailing your progress.
