When Growth Feels Like The Flu

I was sweating through my shirt, my head was pounding, I was shaking uncontrollably, and I almost threw up on the woman I was having a conversation with.

No, it wasn't flu season. I wasn't in an emergency room hooked up to IV bags. It was actually a beautiful July day at the Marriott Conference Center in Marina del Rey, California.


I was 3 days into a personal growth conference that was both educational and inspiring. I was surrounded by like-minded people who shared my vision to make an impact in the world. The entire weekend up until this point had felt like pure love and unbridled joy. 


So why was I ready to vomit?


Because as great as this weekend event was, I knew I needed more consistent support if I wanted to grow into the man I truly wanted to be. Trying to figure it out on my own had become exhausting and frustrating. If I was SERIOUS about getting to the next level in my life and business, I needed a mentor who had already achieved what I wanted to achieve.


This is why I was holding a signed contract for a coaching program with the man who has been my mentor over the last 6 months. The financial commitment was the biggest investment I had ever made in myself. I was terrified to turn the paperwork in.


Sure, I had spent more money in the past on expensive houses and nice cars that I thought would project an image of "success," but this was different. It was the first time I was making a significant investment in MYSELF, which brought up every feeling of fear and lack imaginable.


What if I invest this money and things don't change? What if I try and fail? 


As my mind raced and my fear increased, my nervous system went into full blown panic mode.


And that is exactly what growth feels like.


When you are at the gym, you know you're having a good workout when the weights get heavy, your arms begin to shake, and you have to push through the resistance. That's how muscle is built. In cardio, you might push yourself to the point of nausea, but that's generally a sign that you are pushing yourself to build endurance.


Building spiritual and emotional fitness works the same way. You have to stretch beyond your comfort zone. You have to make a committed decision that scares the crap out of you. Maybe you have to leave a soul-sucking job or learn to speak your truth in a relationship. It might mean you have to learn a new skill set or risk failure to try something new. It might be doing all of these things at once...


Because you can't get to the next level in life using the same thinking and strategies that got you to where you currently are.


Yes, you can eventually figure it out on your own... but it takes forever. It's a long process of trial and error. Most days are going to feel like you're doing a LOT, but never making meaningful progress. You might even feel like you are just running in circles.


If this is where you are at right now, I see, hear, and feel you. I've been there... but I've also overcome it. Now I want to show you how to do the same.


A life of progress, opportunity, and freedom can be yours when you have the right mentor to show you the path. I like to think my life is an example.


Since I began working with my mentor in July, I've:

• Co-authored a best-selling book
• Launched a #1 Podcast on Apple 
• Become a paid Keynote speaker.

And the financial investment that seemed scary in July? I now make that money in a month. In January alone, I've 19X'd my business over what I made in January of 2017, easily earning multiple 5-figures a month while I work from wherever I choose.


The technology of success is not difficult. Staying committed to your path is the tricky part. This is why it's vital to have an expert mentor, structure, and daily implementation plan to bring your vision to life.


And that's why I am taking everything I've learned on my journey and giving it to you in my Life Amplified Group Coaching Program. (Clich HERE to apply)

• Ongoing implementation support when you and I connect for our monthly 1:1 intensive calls.
• A community of amazing people who "get" you and believe in your dreams (even on the days when you don't)
• DAILY goal setting plans from me to keep you consistently aligned with your vision.
• DAILY access to me in our private Facebook group, where I will be answering your questions and supporting you through any challenges you face along the way.

What would life look like in 90 days if you were doing the things that brought you the most joy?

What if you could replace the voices of the naysayers in your life (or perhaps YOU are the naysayer) with a supportive mentor and tribe of people who encouraged you to bring your vision to life? 

How would it feel to wake up each day feeling alive...fulfilled... in control of your time, your finances, and your life?

Meanwhile, what would it look, sound, and feel like if another year went by with you feeling stuck?
