Summary

I’m about to tell you a big fat lie about your biggest, juiciest dream: You’re too late. There’s no time. When you think of that ONE thing you'd love to accomplish if you had all the time, money, resources, and confidence to do it... what would it be? Okay, now think of that big dream and run through all the excuses you’ve fed yourself as to why you haven’t started yet. I’ll bet five bucks that “time” is at the top of the list. And it’s a big fat lie. If you've been debating with yourself whether it's too late to start, or whether you have enough resources, or if something else is holding you back from gripping your dream and finally just going for it -- This episode will convince you otherwise. Think of it as a warm hug paired with tangible advice to launch into your dream, once and for all.

0:00.0	You're listening to the Goldigar podcast episode number 314.
0:04.6	When I stand before God at the end of my life, I would hope that I would not have a single
0:10.4	bit of talent left, and I could say, I've used everything you gave me.

0:28.9	bit of talent that you have?
0:31.6	Chances are the answer is no, and your busy with school drop-offs are taking care of your
0:35.5	children or hustling on your business.
0:38.9	But I want to talk to you about your biggest, juiciest goals for a second.
0:44.6	When you think of that one thing that you would love to accomplish if you had all the time
0:49.5	and money and resources and confidence to do it, what would it be?
0:54.2	Is it writing a best-selling crime novel or a memoir of your life?
0:57.9	Is it opening a gluten-free bakery or a local bookstore?
1:00.7	Is it becoming a speaker to help others break through similar roadblocks you've faced
1:04.8	and conquered?
1:06.3	We all have that thing, that one that sits calmly in the back of our minds waiting to
1:12.0	be tapped into, maybe someday.
1:15.5	The most robust ambition above all the rest of our ambitions that if we're totally being
1:20.9	honest, many of us have just resigned to being just a great idea and only a great idea.
1:27.8	There's too much in the way for it to really come to fruition, so you let it sit and
1:31.8	wait and occasionally remind you, tap, tap, that it's there and it's sitting and it's
