Get In the Game: Living the Life You Love
Daniela Gabrielle, Author of Fly Free: Finding the Courage to Live Without Limitations
Have you ever sat and thought, "I should do this or I should do that" and just as quick as the thought comes its gone only to move on with your ordinary lack luster life?
-OR-
Have you ever had the one person on your social media feed that seems like every time you look up, there they are doing something new or exciting and something in you cringes because your life doesn't seem nearly as fulfilling or exciting?
-OR-
Have you ever thought, "what if" only to talk yourself out of the possibility that it could work?
If you answered yes to any of these questions (or secretly agreed but wouldn't dare say it out loud, because let's get real who wants to admit they've been "hating" on those around them) then you my friend have been...
Sitting on The Sidelines of Life
People pay astronomical amounts of money for sideline tickets to their favorite sport or entertainment event. Why? Because deep down we want to get as close to the action as we can. There's an inherent inclination to "get in the game" inside of everyone, but only a few venture to act on that human nature.
Have you ever heard the term, "those that cannot do, teach?" We limit that to professors sitting in a college classroom, but I beg to differ. Those sitting on those sidelines yelling their heart out often "teach" so to speak because they have not found the guts to DO!
Now don't get me wrong, I love a good concert or football game like the next person. End zone or side line tickets to my favorite college football games are the best, but many of people have adapted this mentality in life. People are sitting on the sidelines of life watching other people score and just like those front row tickets to the Beyonce concert, it's costing you dearly! It's costing you stress, un-fulfillment, time, money and so much more.
We often concentrate so much on what will go wrong that we forget to examine what can go right and how it can impact our lives forever. What if it does work out? What if you do finish? What if you do win? Think about all the people that can benefit from your dream that aren't because you've been so obsessed with telling yourself why you can't instead of why you can.
Here's the challenge...
- Write down one thing that you've been saying, "hmmmm I should do THAT"
- Commit for the next 30 days to spend a minimum of 10 minutes working on "THAT"
- At the end of the 30 days see just how much ground you've made towards bringing "THAT" to past, celebrate getting your dream in motion and make a plan to keep the momentum moving in your favor

You can see those dreams and ideas manifest in your life! Get off the sidelines and do what you've been thinking about. Love yourself enough to Fly Free!
I Love You to Life,
