Make Your Next Step A Leap!

                                Move ahead with confidence NOW.

Leaping  may not be your 'thing'; after all it was the tortoise who won that race right? What if leaping didn't seem foolish or impulsive, or dangerous?  Would you leap?

To Leap; an abrupt transition, a sudden and decisive increase.

Ask yourself which words stand out in the definition above.         Perhaps the words abrupt and sudden stirred some concern when you read them.  Maybe you consider yourself more the pragmatic, careful type and like to feel more in control. Leaping might feel unattractive and unwise. 

Perhaps the last two words in the definition above caught your attention decisive increase.  You're thinking I'm down with that!  translated ( that sounds good to me )  I'd like to be playing a bigger game, making more money, having more free time, increasing the quality of my life and realizing more of my dreams. 

Maybe you're a little more alternative and the word transition stood out for you.  Change is good in your world.  There's nothing more boring than same old, same old and your feel good about yourself when your experiences bring a sense of newness.

The value of making informed, well thought out decisions cannot be argued.  You know that old saying "inch by inch lifes' a cinch".  The only problem with that maybe that you are not reaping the benefits you want fast enough to hold your interest. Your motivation to continue lessens making what was once an enjoyable task unbearable!

Me, I'm all these people.  I've compared taking steps to making leaps and what I've found is that the leaps usually present themselves as opportunities for rapid growth when I've taken conscious steps in the direction of my goals/dreams/visions.

You may be a candidate for leaping if you answer NO to any of these questions.


* Am I happy with the current revenue my business is producing?

* Am I still as excited about my business as I was when I began?

* Am I as successful as I thought I would be by now?

* Am I ready for accelerated growth and new life in my world?

* Am I content with where I am in life and in my business?

 

This article is really about making choices, informed choices. The point of this article is for you to have the opportunity to ask yourself this question:

When a leap opportunity presents itself to me will I allow myself to experience a sudden, possibly abrupt, transition that will bring me a decisive increase?

If your answer is yes or you at least wish that you could say yes than you might be interested in attending this free workshop.

    Looking forward to tuesday. I've made the odd abrupt change and feel that those have probably been the great contributing factors to my life state now. I feel it is what you do in response to those changes (self imposed or otherwise) that goes a long way defining life.

    Karen,

    Excellent! What people need for sustained meaningful change in their life is a "leap of faith." This is how many inventions are created. It is called a paradigm shift: when one way of viewing the world or community is changed for another.

    You cannot apprehend the "earth is round" using "the earth is flat"language."

    We are all walking paradigms. We view the world through our unique colored glasses and usually think change is "more" and "bigger."

    "Discovery is not in visiting new lands but in having fresh eyes."

    Marcel Proust

    True change is leaping out of our paradigm.

    Thanks
