It's Never Too Late to Go After Your Dreams: How to Rediscover Your Passions and Pursue Your Goals at Any Age

Do you ever feel like it's too late to achieve your dreams and goals? That ship has sailed, right? Wrong! I'm here to tell you that it's never too late to rediscover what brings you joy and passion in life.

This powerful three-step framework will help you re-ignite your inner fire and start taking steps toward the life you desire. This process has helped me and countless others exit the cycle of self-doubt and limiting beliefs and start living life to the fullest.

Step 1: Tell Yourself the Truth

Be honest with yourself - do you still want to achieve this goal or dream? It's perfectly normal and healthy to let go of aspirations that no longer fit who you are. The key is checking in with your true desires.

An insightful exercise is to make a list of the best moments in your life and categorize them into experiences, relationships, accomplishments, and objects. What category has the most tallies? This brings awareness to what really matters to you.

Step 2: Ignite Curiosity

Get curious about what would make achieving this goal easier or harder for you. Use B.J. Fogg's "Ability Chain" - time, money, physical effort, mental effort - to ask yourself empowering questions. This honesty allows you to uncover obstacles and solutions.

Step 3: Start Testing

Take action by testing strategies and behaviors to address the obstacles you identified. View setbacks as data to learn from. Return to Steps 1 and 2 as needed to adjust your approach. With persistence, you can design a path to success.  

No matter your age or past, you have so much life yet to live. Follow these steps to rediscover your passions, boost resilience, and make your dreams a reality. I believe in you!

It’s time to be real with your life journey. Your journey is yours and yours alone. You can’t follow someone else’s path and be fulfilled and God doesn’t want you to follow someone else’s path.
 

• Are you stressed and anxious at work and feel like your life is out of control?
• Do you want to work for yourself and own your time but don’t know what to do or how to do it?
• Do you have passions and projects you want to pursue?
• Are you ready to follow God's plan for your life?

Learn to hear and listen to God's voice, turn your chaos into calm, and battle and win the war against stress and anxiety.

My mission is to empower you to dig deep and know when to say yes to the things God wants you to and no to everything else, learn to move forward and pursue your passions, and stay emotionally healthy while doing it. Let me teach you how to create a vision, identify goals, and start your own online business. 

If you're ready to ditch that unfulfilled life for the life that God meant for you, then you're in the right place.
