Have you ever felt you have great ideas but don’t know where to begin? Have you ever felt you want to make that leap, but are unsure if you are truly ready? Have you wanted to change careers but don’t feel you have what it takes?
If your dreams and desires seem to daunting for you to reach, I invite you to stretch into them rather than leap.
Elite professional athletes don’t hit the winning home run, score the winning touchdown, or sink the winning basket without preparation. They have a game plan built on believing in themselves, visualizing the end result, and stretching to loosen up to allow their brilliance to shine. They are continually stretching both figuratively (mind) and literally (body) to live their highest dreams. They develop core muscles of confidence and determination. They visualize where they are going from putting on the uniform to winning the game. They stretch before each game to loosen up and allow their greatness to show up in its highest form.
Affirmation: I am always stretching toward my dreams.

For the next week I invite you to stretch by opening your:
Arms wide and embracing the amazing possibilities you get to choose from.
Heart and living each day from a space of love and appreciating where you’ve been, where you are now, and looking forward to where you are going.
Mind by affirming that not only do you deserve to be the best YOU, but that you owe it to yourself and the world to live the life of your dreams.
Creativity and truly seeing you living the life of your dreams and knowing you deserve it.
Mostly, I invite you to loosen up and see the good in you, see the love in you, see the gentleness in you, see the greatness in you, and stretch from fear based feelings and reactions. I promise you, the more you stretch, the better you’ll feel.
Until next time, simply loosen up and allow your winning spirit to shine.
Keep living big, loving big, and laughing along the journey.
~Carol
