In this week's mindset shift, JC invites you to acknowledge the bear of motivation that exists inside you. That voice that pushes and encourages you and yes, sometimes scares and stresses you out. This moment serves as the reminder that that voice is on your side and in your control and provides you a ceremonial 60-seconds to be where you are, with what you have and to honor that.
We all have the capacity to ferociously motivate ourselves. I think sometimes we shy away from letting that bear out. What if we saw this opportunity to be lit up from the inside out as our greatest gift?
So let's be where we are right now for a minute. Maybe as you close your eyes, you visualize all that you have, what's inside you. Remember that bear that's always inside you, ready to motivate. Have a good day.
We all have the capacity to ferociously motivate ourselves, right? I say it that way on purpose, like ferocious. Like a bear. So let's say you're looking at your task ahead, your big, hairy goal. Or maybe it's even just that workout. What if you let that ferocious bear out, and as you work, as you run, as you lift, as you sweat and do that thing, you feel it coming up behind you, this thing that's irking you on, to work harder and harder and harder? I think sometimes we shy away from letting that bear out.
Why? Because it's a bear. What if we saw this opportunity to be lit up from the inside out as our greatest gift, right? Yeah, you got a ferocious bear of motivation inside of you. But at any moment, as you're running and running and running, and you go, you know what? I've reached that point where I cannot run anymore. It is absolutely okay for you to turn around, to stop with confidence, to put your hand up and say, bear, stop for a moment, because I guarantee you, if you acknowledge where that bear is coming from, the desire inside of you to be everything that you are, to maybe dream about where that everything is growing into this evolutionary process that is you, that that bear is gonna sit down, that bear is gonna smile at you, it's gonna wait, it'll twiddle its little bare fingers, maybe engage you in conversation, and then the second that you go, you know what?
Let's get back to work. That bear will stand back up and it'll say, ready, set, go. Let that bear out. Because, again, you need to be on your side more than anybody else. And even though that's not an easy task, it's definitely a worthwhile one. So let's be where we are right now for a minute, a ceremonious 60 seconds that reminds you you are always capable of taking a moment to recenter to refocus, then to get back to work. So close your eyes. Maybe as you close your eyes, you visualize all that you have, what's inside you.
Your ability to be calm and still, your ability to be fiery and ferocious. Your ability to scare and surprise yourself. All of these elements, when we step into our own skin, we remember our ability to be present, what becomes possible. Breathe in. Breathe out that ferocious spirit as you come back into your day, remember that bear that's always inside you, ready to motivate, ready to push, always ready to be on your side whenever you need to take that moment of rest. Have a good day.
