Masterful Mindsets – Challenge and Inspire

“Influence is not about elevating yourself, but about lifting others.” ~ Sheri Dew 

Last week I asked you to think about a person in your life that was highly influential to you. Maybe that person was a role model that you followed and looked up to. Someone who led you to the beliefs that you now live by. Maybe they taught you to think about things in new and different ways. Or maybe they were someone who was always challenging you to step up and be your best! Inspiring you to dream bigger and encouraging you to go after those dreams!

It is my hope that you were able to think of more than one person who has been highly influential in your life. I know that I have more than one. Some filling different roles and some coming at different times in my life. And while I am thankful for all of them, I am particularly thankful for the ones who inspire and challenge me! I would not be near the person I am today, if it weren’t for the people who have challenged me to be my best and inspired me to follow my dreams. The people who have supported me, helped me pick myself up (and laugh about it) when I’ve fallen and given me the loving but firm nudge I need when I want to stop. For these people, I am eternally indebted and grateful. And it is with great honor that I get to be that person for many others. For my clients, whom I challenge and inspire regularly to be their best and live their best lives. For my family and friends whom I encourage and champion on with each new endeavor or struggle. Influencing others is truly not about power and control to elevate yourself. It is in fact, about lifting others up because the more we can do that, the greater our world can be for everyone.

So let’s start now… let’s lift each other up! Inspire others who need someone to inspire them. Challenge them to grow and become the very best version of themselves. I mean – if not now, when? Seriously!

Who in your life could use some inspiration? Who in your life needs to be challenged to step up, skill up and fire up? We can look at this situation as a time to give up and just wait for it to change or we can look at it as an opportunity to level up and become better versions of ourselves while we wait. There is no doubt that when we come out of this pandemic, there will be a new normal. Will you be ready? Will the people you love and care about be ready?

I want to challenge you to not only level up your own life right now but to influence and inspire others to do the same. Not sure where to start? Let me help… CLICK HERE to get free access to my online training, “How to Thrive During Uncertain Times”.
