Tris is so uplifting and encouraging! It is evident that she cares about her listeners and empowering other women. I love listening to her podcasts on my commute on the way to work or school in the morning. It works to set a positive vibe for the day to come. Thanks for all of your dedication and advice Trish! BE SINGULARLY FOCUSED Pick one goal that matters the most to you. Write it down every day. Bonus - You can think about one major goal for every area of your life. How to not get overwhelmed - Set up accountability Simply and don't overcommit Create a schedule, break it down into bites Identify how PROGRESS makes you feel - and that progress is happiness. Personally - I love a word of the year. I love doing my Annual Guidebook. I love setting categories. I love creating an image for myself to see. I love having a main goal for each area of my life. I love having family specific and travel goals. I love and hyper focus on my experience goal - my soul goal. SEE YOURSELF AS YOU WANT TO BE + DON'T OVERTHINK IT! -Pull-up story -One singular goal - that made me uncomfortable -Wrote it down Thinking affects our physical performance by 50% Use descriptive words that move you and change you - that speak to the person you are becoming Speak to those you love as the person you see them becoming too - practice this on others as you do on yourself STEP OUT OF THE SHADOWS YOU HAVE PUT YOURSELF IN What do you need to change about yourself this year? What is non-negotiable? What have you continually used as an excuse that needs to go? Why aren't you allowing yourself to grow? I was scared for years - I stayed in my disorder because I didn't know what life would be like without it. I had fear over not knowing what to do next - but remember, God always brings the teacher when you are ready. You are not alone. You do not have to figure this, life or your next step out alone or on your own. You are not defined by how many times you haven't succeeded. ANNOUNCEMENT: Annual Guidebook!
