Whoa First name / friend, how did we get to the end of 2021 already?! 
 
Sweet friends, we hope you simultaneously navigated the challenges of, and savored the beautiful moments of the holiday! We're lookin at 2022 in a few days, we don't know about you, but we're looking forward to a new year with new goals! 
 
Last week we turned inward, seeking clarity through at least a little bit of stillness. We hope, amidst the chaos that's bound to happen this time of year, you had a chance to get quiet for a moment, too. What did you envision for yourself? 5 years from now? 1 year? 10 years? Did you envision a future where you honor who you are, and your natural gifts? 
 
Today, let's take that thought, dream or vision and connect it to reality. In the words of David Sivers, “Ideas are just the multipliers of execution” - meaning that any idea, dream or desire means nothing without action. To get results you have to multiply the two components, the concept and the execution. For someone in business, they might have the most genius idea, but with no execution it’s worth $0. Yet the greatest (or even okay) idea executed brilliantly is gold! What does this mean for you? Here are some things we know helps the execution of ideas… 
  1. Exchange ideas. Freely.
  2. Learn, absorb and discover.
  3. Put the lessons to practice, and apply to your everyday life.
Sounds easy, right? But why do most people get stuck on number 3? Where does the resistance come in? Most importantly, where does YOUR resistance come in, and how can you overcome it?
 
To help, we’ve assemble our top 10 fan favorites from 2021 - that will help you get unstuck and turn it all around! Ready to count it down with us?

Finally, remember that you're already standing in an outcome - and recognize all that you accomplished in 2021, against all odds! 
 
Sweet friends, we're grateful for you and can't wait to see what you do in 2022!

p.s. One last thing for those of you who need a push. We challenge you do get brave and put yourself out there. Do the 3-Day Performance Challenge before 2021 ends, and don't forget the most important step: post your performance at the end. It's a little about crossing the bridge from practice to performance and a LOT about bravery. You can do it!
