Ever heard the quote: “Anyone can slay a dragon.
But try waking up every day and try to love the world again.”
Who wouldn’t want to slay the dragon?
I know I would.
Although this quote made me realize maybe it just NOT about slaying that dragon after all…
What if truly living life was about the simplicity of waking up everyday and loving the world?
How would your life change?
How would your business change?
How would your relationship change?
What if creating the life you love was a simple as learning to love yourself and believe YOU are enough?
The biggest struggle of all humanity. The faith to believe you can do it and all you need the REAL you, YOU might just need a little friend or professional help finding it.
True leaders in our leadership profiles know how to slay the dragon on their own mind to love the world as their authentic, beautiful and real self.
So here’s 3 Simple Steps to help you start not only slaying the dragon but loving the world daily and stepping into your authentic self.
1. Find your source: that’s right at the core of who you are WHAT do you believe, WHO do you believe and HOW does that play out in your life? We all come from different backgrounds, belief, religious views but one thing I know if you don’t have this settled it can be very challenging to find the source of love, joy & peace within yourself.
For Example: I know that my true source is Jesus and the only reason I can find what I need within myself is because He made me and I can trust in Him to know all my faults while seeing my strengths and from there I can stand in the firmest place I know. Before I had this answered for myself I felt unsure, doubtful and not able to be my authentic self. This is my reality
Find your source.
2. Free yourself to believe: Free yourself to believe in that source. Daily just make one step toward really believing in your source. That could be as simple as waking up each morning a saying help me believe and help me see. Now this is NOT touchy feeling hokey stuff it really works… try it over a period of time and see how things change for you. When you begin to open yourself to someone who is greater than you, what is in you begins to shift and change.
You being to see that together, you are enough.
If this sounds like a lot or your having a challenging time identifying your source that is ok. Just remember to give yourself time and space and believe.
3. Find someone to love: it may be the hardest or easiest step to being a true leader and impacting the world. Having a hard time loving the world or slaying the dragon… look deep into someone’s eyes and share with them something you really appreciate about them, buy an extra sandwich during lunch and give it to a co-worker or someone in need around, write a random note to a stranger encouraging them. Whatever you expression of love you most love, try for someone else. This is where the true power of a leader comes, their ability to serve someone else before themselves.
There’s the 3 Simple Steps to loving the world daily and being the authentic leader you know you are called to be.
I hope this was of value to you and my heart is that it would be a starting place for you on the journey of becoming your true authentic self.
