It’s My Birthday and I’ll Cry if I Want to…

Yes, it’s true. Today is my birthday. (I’m 22 if you are wondering Ha Ha!).

Why would I want to cry? Birthdays are supposed to be fun, joyous occasions that are celebrated and leave the birthday boy or girl, reveling in the “birthday bliss”.

My reality as of late, has consisted of waking up every day wondering what is going to break next. If you haven’t seen my #TrueStory posts you may not know what I am talking about, but it is one of those seasons in life that we can expect will come at some point. The important thing is being prepared so we can handle it with Grace instead of completely falling apart, or even worse… giving up.

This is what I call the Valley.

The place where you feel overwhelmed and your view is obscured by the fog. The Valley has step slopes that look impossible to traverse, so the average person just gives up and decides to just accept that this is the best life has to offer and they decide to just set up camp in the Valley forever.

The above average person will start the climb up the steep Valley walls and set up camp on the first flat area they come across. Celebrating that they came farther than most, they will allow the tiredness and their lack of ability to see what they are missing out on, to lull them into accepting less than the best there is.

It is the exceptional person that recognizes that although the Valley walls are steep, the view and the benefits from the top of the Mountain, are too amazing to settle for half way. I hope you are part of the elite crowd that wants to experience the benefits of the Mountain Top! That is why I wrote thie #12Books12Months series. To encourage you and lead you to #RockThatDream Ridge and each book gives you small bite-sized pieces to help you get there safely.

Taking on this #BHAG (Big Hairy Audacious Goal.) is exactly the kind of challenge, that gets my blood moving and lights a fire under me with an unquenchable desire to do something. It has also been exhausting. Getting sick for 4 months and having everything under the sun break in our home has been a bit overwhelming.

I share this all with you because I want to encourage you. Making major decisions from the Valley, where thinks are dark and you feel discouraged is dangerous because you can easily feel defeated. Making decisions from mid-way is like giving up right before you strike gold. You need to make big decisions from the Mountain Top where the view is clear, and the experience and education has had a chance to illuminate itself.

Life is full of ups and downs and reality says we all have to go through them. The way we handle them is the key that will predict the future of how we see the world.

So, yes, it is my birthday, but I am giving out the gifts. I want you to emerge from 2019 as the best version of yourself and the best way I know to do that is to provide you access to my resources and experience.

TODAY ONLY in honor of my birthday you can use the code MOUNTAINTOP and save 50% off any item including my coaching services. (Starting Feb or beyond – NOTE: physical items require shipping based on your location and I will contact you separately after receiving your order with that amount.)

If you are ready to level up your game, get my collection of books or courses or work with me one on one… this is your chance to do so at a significant savings.

My gift to you is clear vision and someone to help you steer your ship to Success Island. That way the only birthday tears will be those of Joy as I show you the view from the Pinnacle of Peace. Isn’t that what you want from 2019?

Today is your day! It’s time to prepare to #RockThatDream in 2019!

Be sure to stay tuned, next week is a Book Review and the following week I will be sharing with you how to Clean Your Canvas in preparation for having your best year yet!

Until next week… Dream it, Believe it, Achieve it! – Vicki
