How to Live Your Own Extraordinary Life
I love this quote because it speaks the truth.
We’ve all been through rough times...illness, the loss of a loved one, career changes and so much more.
We’ve all been surrounded at one point or another in our lives by someone who truly inspired us. Someone doing big things.
We are all capable of resilience and we are all meant for extraordinary.
What does an extraordinary life mean to you?
Maybe living an extraordinary life is being positive, optimistic and perseverant.
Maybe it’s all about taking risks and trying something new even if you’re scared or feeling vulnerable…
An extraordinary life could be living and using your gifts and strengths to make a difference, even a small one…
An extraordinary life could be dreaming and taking action to realize your dreams, no matter how small.
You don’t need to be a rock star, a millionaire, a CEO of a company…you just need to be you, the best ‘YOU’ can be, and make the most of every minute you can.
Taking action
We all have decisions to make. And if you’re ready to start adding that little “extra” into your life...it’s time to take action.
Being extraordinary starts with the actions and decisions we make every single day.
Make a list of goals you’d like to accomplish this year.
And then write down HOW you’re going to accomplish these goals. Remember to aim high!
Manage your mindset
It’s easy to get stuck in the “I can’t” mindset.
We all have that inner voice in our head that makes us doubt ourselves.
And then, if we experience tragedy or loss in our lives, we can let it bring us down. And keep us there.
It’s time to start turning tragedy into triumph, mend your broken heart, and use hardship as the drive you need to rise above and succeed.
It’s in you. It’s in all of us.
It’s time to start transforming those automatic negative thoughts into positive ones.
When you catch yourself doing it, pause, take a breath and think of something you’re grateful for. Think of something big you’ve accomplished. Think of what makes you happy.
Notice how that feels in your body when you think these positive things and next time, when you get down, go back to that special place.
Surround yourself with positivity and inspiration
Being extraordinary is contagious.
Surround yourself with people who inspire you to dream big.
Not only can it give you confidence and help you realize you’re capable of anything too...it can help open up your mind to new possibilities!
You can also gain inspiration from podcasts, webinars, and following people online who inspire you.
No matter how you choose to live an extraordinary life...remember at the core of it all is honouring your authentic self and doing the best you can.
