Are you happy with your life? Why or why not?
You are the most powerful person in your world (other than God, of course). If you are unsatisfied with your life, you have the power to change it. You have to realize your power. As long as your have life in your body, you can change.
I designed the exercises below to help you evaluate your dreams/goals, identify the "barriers" and create an action plan to overcome the barriers and reach your goal.
Self Evaluation, it is important that you are as honest with yourself as possible. This segment will force us to tell the truth to ourselves and to stop hiding from our true destiny.
What is my dream for my life? Have I achieved my goal/dream? Why or why not?
Am I happy with my job and/or career path? Why or why not? Am I happy with my weight and/or appearance? Why or why not? Am I involved in positive, motivating and loving relationships?
Identification of "barriers" is very important. We are brave, strong warriors that are sometime fearful at something as simple as a mouse. Remember, you are big, brave and can accomplish anything that you put your mind to.
if you had a mouse in your house, you would find ways to get rid of it QUICK! These "barriers" are a mouse. Identify them and conquer them, brave warrior.

What are the barriers keeping me from my dream? Think and name a time that you have overcome an obstacle. How did you do it? What are your greatest strengths? What are your greatest areas for opportunities? ( we don't say weakness, we say opportunity)
Now break down your RESPONSE to the questions in the self evaluation section.
Example
What is my dream/goal for my life?Become a chef
Have I achieved my/dream?No
Why or why not? I have not focused on my dream or me in a while

An action plan will allow you to plan your steps for success in your own timeframe. You must include deadlines for every task to hold yourself accountable. An action plan is very similar to a checklist. If you have done checklists or grocery list, you can do an action plan. You can include long term and short term plans.
