DO IT SCARED!

Do it Scared!

Is there something you want to do in your life but you have not done it because you are afraid? Was your fear so strong that you talked yourself out of it but you kept thinking about it? This is what happens when you have something in your spirit that’s trying to manifest. It will keep resurfacing until you finally get the courage to do it. 

Ask yourself, "What are you afraid of? Are you scared that you will fail or people will not approve? Is it that you are afraid that you will not exceed your expectations?  Well, the reality is, you will not know what will happen until you try. 

The feeling of being scared has occurred to me many times and I still have to get over it when I am starting something new. In 2009, fear almost stopped me from entering my Doctoral Program. My greatest fear was that I did not write well enough to complete the dissertation. I was so scared that it took me a month to submit my admissions essay, but I am glad I did. Fear could have stopped me but I did it scared and now I am Dr. Sheena Wilson.

Not fulfilling your dreams because you are scared only ends in future regrets. How will you know your greatness, if you refuse to get in the game? I always say, a loser can eventually become a winner, but the person who never starts will always be full of regrets. Do not wind up being the "if I, should of, could of, man.... conquer your fears and do it scared.

Growing into You

Growing into YOU

There comes a time in life when you realize you are not where you think you should be. That’s when you have to grow into the part. This has happened to most people I know and even myself. At times, depending on what it is, I am still growing into that person I desire to be. The key is to start and never give up, because life is only fulfilling when you are growing. Most people have said to themselves, I should be farther along than this, I should have a better home, be an entrepreneur, make more money, or even have a family by now.  I say to those people, it is never to late to start becoming the person you desire to be.

The person you desire to be is just a mindset shift away. Maybe you are not that person because of the choices you have made and the road you have traveled. If this is the case, travel down a different road. It might be hard. There will be failures but this is all apart of the growing process. In order to grow there will be growing pains. The beauty of these growing pains are that they’re designed to shape you into the person you desire to be. There will be a process and your life will go through some seasons, but at the end, you will find the person you were looking for…The person you desire to BE….

I will start first. 

I am growing into the part by enrolling myself into leadership programs to develop my leadership skills so I can become an instructional leader and mentor to other women.  

So how are you growing into the part? 

Leave a comment below telling me how you are growing into the part. 

Welcome 2017!

Welcome 2017!

Happy New Year Everyone,

Did you make your New Year Resolution yet? Are you worried about keeping it or did you just decided not to make any? Well, if keeping your New Year’s Resolution is a concern, it’s just a mindset change away.

I am one of those people that do not make New Year Resolutions.  Why, you might ask? Well, for me I make resolutions all through the year. For one, my resolution was to start writing my blog and make my first post on January 1, 2017. I made that resolution back in September. I created a plan where I had to write at least 4 times a week and I monitored my progress weekly. This was the start of my blog becoming a reality.

Now, some people call them resolutions but I just say it’s goal setting.

Your New Year can start anytime you want it to by just setting goals. You do not have to wait until January 1st. Goal setting is easy but accomplishing them can be very challenging, if you are not focused. So, here are some tips on how to make your New Year's  Resolutions a reality.  Now, this approach might not work for all, but it works for me.

Steps to Making Your New Year's Resolution a Reality

First, establish what your goal is and create a timeline.

Secondly, create a plan. Use a calendar and plan out what you will do daily to help you get closer to your goal.

Then, execute you plan and keep track of your progress by crossing out the things on your calendar you completed that day that was associated with your goal.

Hold yourself accountable by reviewing your calendar weekly to make sure you are consistent with your plan.  If your plan is not working for you because you were too ambitious, revise your plan.

Finally, when you reach the deadline for your goal, assess if you met your goal, if not continue until you do.

This is what helped me accomplish my goal of posting my Blog. Maybe, it will help you too.

Helpful Tips: I keep my action board beside my bed so I review it daily.
(Calendar, inspirational quotes, reminders, goals, focus of the month)

Now, you do not have to make it fancy. It does not have to be extra neat as you can see. It is a working document like you are a work of Art. Get started today, just decide.
