Do you ever have those days where you feel like you need a bit of a kick start? You have so much to do but the thought of getting started just leaves you feeling overwhelmed and maybe even a little frightened? I feel like that at the moment.

I think sometimes, we get stuck in our own heads so much that we end up procrastinating and putting things off. Maybe it’s a fear of failure? How do you know that you’ll fail if you never even get going though?

We tell ourselves that we aren’t ready. Maybe I can’t launch my business until I have a website, or maybe I can’t call myself a photographer until I own a camera worth £3k.

We’re never going to get anywhere in life if we’re constantly waiting for those right moments to happen. We have to create them ourselves. If you want to write a book, get writing and self publish. Want to be a photographer? Get out and start taking photos, share them on your blog and social media. Don’t be afraid of failure. Failure can sometimes be a great way to learn and improve. Keep going until you get what you want.

I’m a big believer in cosmic ordering, the universe will give us whatever we want but we have to ASK for it and show that we’re ready first. Sitting around hoping and waiting for things to happen isn’t going to get us anywhere.

So, my advice for you today is to START!

Start that project you’ve been putting off. Sit down and make a list of what steps you need to make your dreams come true and take some action. Ask for what you want. Write it down on a piece of paper and keep it somewhere were you’ll see it often to remind yourself what you’re working towards. You do deserve it. You are good enough. You will achieve what you want. You just have to start…NOW.
