Have you been on a path towards your dream, and the more you move in that direction there is always the feeling of 2 steps back, and when it just keeps happening you have this huge feeling of giving up!

DON’T give up, take a BREAK.

Take the time to rekindle your fire! I love this peaceful picture, it wasn’t the break I took, but I had a bit of that feeling after I took my break from the internet. I love projects, and living in an apartment now doesn’t give me that opportunity, and I needed to start something and finish and see the end results.

So I was dog sitting at my daughter and son-in-laws house, and their pergola desperately needed sanded and stained. I wanted to surprise them, but thought “I better ask my son-in-law” so he wouldn’t be upset. But, I did get to surprise my daughter.

Yes, it was a huge project, and thankfully I had a friend ask if she could help. We were just finishing up when they got home, was a nice surprise for my daughter and my son-in-law really did like it, stating that he wondered if I could get it all done in 4 days. Pretty much took 41/2 days.

The way I felt after was such exhilaration it was just what I needed. That picture of peacefulness is how I also felt.

As a coach, the internet can be so consuming, all coaches and even everyone who’s job consumes your days, you know and understand how much it takes out of you. It always sounds so much easier to give up, but if you did you could miss the moment that all your hard work would came to fruition.

So…TAKE A BREAK, whatever it is that fulfills you, do it!! It will feel fantastic and you will be re-energized!
