Hey there, beautiful ones! Today, I want to share some insights inspired by a thought-provoking Instagram post by the ever-wise Nicky Saunders. We’ve officially crossed into the fourth quarter of the year, and you know what that means – it’s time for some reflection and recalibration.
You see, as the year winds down, many of us tend to assess what we didn’t accomplish that we swore we would. Instead of panicking and rushing to tick off every unchecked box on our to-do lists, let’s try something different this time. Instead of viewing it as a mad dash to the finish line, let’s ask ourselves a powerful question: “What else can I do?”
I’ll be the first to admit that I’ve been guilty of this line of thinking in the past. For years, I would make grandiose New Year’s resolutions, and before I knew it, October would roll around, and I’d find myself standing amidst a sea of unfulfilled promises. It was like a time warp, and with the new year only three months away, I’d panic and start throwing metaphorical spaghetti at the wall, hoping something would stick. Spoiler alert: It never did.
The fourth quarter would then become a stress-fueled nightmare that left me feeling stuck, like a deer caught in the headlights. Why? Because I had always put off making things a priority until tomorrow, thinking I had plenty of time. But the truth is, tomorrow never comes.
Now, instead of dwelling on what I haven’t accomplished yet this year, I’ve learned to be thankful for everything I have achieved, no matter how seemingly small. My thought process has shifted to align with Nicky’s wisdom: “What else can I do in these final months of the year?”
The key to executing this mentality is to stay firmly rooted in the present moment. No more worrying about what I didn’t do yesterday or what I could do tomorrow. My only concern is what I can do today to move the needle forward.
If you’re a creator like me, your top priority should be what you can create today. Don’t waste your energy on what you didn’t do yesterday; focus on the here and now. And if you find yourself struggling to kickstart your creative engine, I’ve got a little gift for you – the “5 Essential Steps to Unlock Your Creative Power” guide, available for free download.
Yes, my friends, there are only three months left in the year, but let me tell you, that’s more than enough time for you to step into your creative power, manifest your dreams, and make a lasting impact. The power lies within you, waiting to be unleashed.
So, what’s your priority today? What can you do that will set you up for a triumphant next three months? Remember, there’s nothing to it but to do it. I wholeheartedly believe in you, and as always, I’m here to remind you that I love you.
In closing, let’s embrace the fourth quarter with open hearts and open minds. Let’s make every moment count and savor the journey. After all, it’s not just about reaching the finish line; it’s about the beautiful, transformative experiences along the way.
Stay blessed, stay creative, and keep shining your radiant light. Together, we’ll make these last three months of the year our most magical yet. 💫✨
