Today we’re going to walk through the 6 steps of redefining and reverse engineering your breakup. First… 1. Break UP. Look UP after your breakup. What would your situation look like in the BIG picture — the 30,000 feet view? What’s the big picture that you’d desire to create? 2. Break DOWN. Take whatever your “DOWN” is and break it up into pieces. Break it down into it’s more basic, fundamental elements and ask…what can I create with this? 3. Break IN. Go all in. Go into your most intimate, sacred heart space and leave no piece unturned. Don’t look for anything except DISCOVERY. It’s time to DIS your COVER…and go past the need to stay comfortable and recover or to cover yourself. Totally expose yourself and try it on. Like a tight pair of jeans. Get comfortable with new. 4. Break OUT. Not like a bad case of acne, but breaking down the walls that once held you in. How? By coming from within. Not trying to change YOU or anything else from the outside in. 5. Break THROUGH. Move beyond the boundaries that were once there. OR… Redefine the boundaries that were once there, but required your attention. Re-express your commitment to what matters most to you. 6. Whatever you do, DON’T put your BRAKES ON… Keep going and keep growing. Please grab your SACRED S.O.L. D.A.T.E. JOURNAL (Daily Action To Engage yourself.) TODAY’S SACRED S.O.L.

How Do “THEY” Do It? Have you ever asked yourself this or wondered, “What’s “wrong” with me? Why can’t I get it together?” First, you’re not alone. We’ve all thought this at one time or another. Until we see behind the curtain of the ones that seemingly have it “all figured out,” and we realize that perhaps they don’t. Second, who are “they” anyway? And why are you comparing yourself to “them?” Seriously, have you ever asked yourself this? If not, then I’m asking you right here and now. Is it possible that the “they” you compare yourself to is actually an “illusion” of what you think is the answer? However, you’ve never actually asked “the question?” What is that infamous question that you’re trying so desperately to “figure out?” And WHY? Perhaps it's time to ask yourself a NEW QUESTION... Please grab your SACRED S.O.L. D.A.T.E. JOURNAL (Daily Action To Engage yourself.) TODAY’S SACRED S.O.L. STEP: Where in your life have you been comparing your life and experiences to someone else’s? Write it down. Draw a line through it, and write: I choose to DISCOVER. Thank you for being here, and allowing me to Sip On Life with you.

I call it a "Moment Of Truth." It’s that moment when you consciously choose to walk in truth — in all areas of your life. That moment when you ask yourself these questions: 1. What will I no longer tolerate in my life? 2. What will I celebrate and create in my life? Then totally commit to it. Go all in. It’s the moment you choose GRATITUDE…and you not only recognize it, but you give it recognition. You begin telling it. What Gratitude Story are you willing to tell today? Please grab your SACRED S.O.L. D.A.T.E. JOURNAL (Daily Action To Engage yourself.) TODAY’S SACRED S.O.L. STEP: Begin to write your Gratitude Story...

Today I identify 4 types of action that can bring beauty to your life: 1. DistrACTION. 2. SubtrACTION. 3. AttrACTION. 4. SatisfACTION. Please grab your SACRED S.O.L. D.A.T.E.

If you're becoming the result of something that "triggers" your happy or not happy, then you're being and becoming someone you're not. What IF happy isn’t something we make or create or choose….but it’s something we are. IN FACT, IT'S WHO WE ARE. What if happiness isn’t a feeling, but an identity? How are you expressing yourself? What IF "happy" isn't something that's made, because it's already BEEN MADE — it's YOU? Please grab your SACRED S.O.L. D.A.T.E. JOURNAL (Daily Action To Engage yourself.)   TODAY’S SACRED S.O.L. STEP IS THIS:  Imagine YOURSELF as being...truly being...HAPPY. IT'S WHO YOU ARE. NOT WHAT YOU ARE. Ask yourself, "If I were HAPPY, how would HAPPY engage with this moment?" BE. YOU. BE. HAPPY.

Is it possible that the “search for happiness" is causing us more harm than good?” Not all happiness is happy… Oftentimes we say, “I’ve found my happiness.” Hmm? “I’ve found my happiness”…really? Where? What did it cost you? Is there a money-back guarantee? Expiration date? Owner’s Manual? Terms of Use? Privacy policy? Really? Looking for it? Conditional happiness could be hazardous! What if what you’re looking “to get” isn’t “gettable?” Happiness isn’t something we get. What if you’re trying to get something that can’t be gotten, but has been forgotten? Perhaps the reason you’re not feeling it, is because it’s been FORGOTTEN. Happiness isn’t something you find, or that finds you. It’s something you create, because it’s already in you. Are you willing to receive it, and create with it? You can’t find something you’re not willing to create. You’re the HAPPY MAKER, and no one else can do it for you. You are the BEHOLDER OF THE HAPPY. Are you willing to bring the happy? And more importantly, are you willing to bring the JOY? J.O.Y. Start with this… (J) Justification elimination. (O) Open heart replacement. (Y) YOU discovering YOU. Choose to be the JOY + Happy Maker, and commit to YOU today. Please grab your SACRED S.O.L. D.A.T.E. JOURNAL (Daily Action To Engage yourself.)   TODAY’S SACRED S.O.L. STEP IS THIS:  Write out the word, J.O.Y. Take a look at it. Where have you been justifying your happy or unhappy. See what your heart shows you today.

Everyone talks about finding their happiness or choosing it. I often talk about creating your happy. However, what if it’s already there, but it needs some tender loving care in order to heal? This is exactly what’s happening, and this is how to heal your H.A.P.P.Y. You must heal your… H. - Hope. “Her hope isn’t full.” If you’re running on empty. Stop and fill up. Walk in full. Full. Filled. Hope is your positive expectations. Your beliefs, desires, and trust. What would it take today to fill up your HOPE tank? You have to be willing and brave enough to get your hopes up. No one has ever died because of disappointment, but people have failed to live a fully, happy life because they’ve been afraid to get their hopes up. Elevate your expectation. A. - Awareness. Not unaware. Not numbness. Awareness is not numbness. Numbing your sadness won’t heal your happy. If you desire to heal your happy, you must become consciously aware. And sometimes that means, painfully aware. You must be willing to feel some things that don’t feel so good. Allowing yourself to feel it, in order to heal it. Don’t run from your feelings. Don’t run from yourself. Perhaps you’re actually running from your own happiness? Stop running from your happy. P. - Purpose. Your purpose is real simple. It’s your INSPIRATION. It’s what inspires you. What is it that inspires you? Stop trying so hard to figure it out, and instead, engage with what inspires you daily, and your life will be inspiring. Your inspiration will heal your happy. P. - Play. Play is vital to your happiness. It’s required for action, brain development, and getting you out of your head. If you stay in your head, you’re dead. You must be willing to come out and play. Get out of your head. If your happy isn’t fully healthy, chances are you’ve been spending way too much time in your head. It’s killing you. It’s killing your happy. Get out of your head. Allow yourself to come out and play…and begin to heal your happy. Y. - YOU. WHY? Why do you do what you do? Why do you seek happiness? Why do you desire to heal your happy? The WHY (and the Y) stands for…YOU. YOU. This is why and how to heal your happy. It’s starts with YOU. Healing YOU. From the inside, out. From above, down, inside, and out. Allowing yourself to heal. What have you done lately to receive the gift of healing? To receive the gift of LIFE? Health is full expression of life. Healing is YOU receiving your FULL EXPRESSION OF LIFE. And not only receiving it, but sharing it. Sharing YOU. Are you willing today to receive the full expression of YOUR LIFE, and to allow yourself to begin sharing it? Sharing the YOU that’s uniquely you. Sharing the happiness that is YOU. Sharing what makes you happy. It starts with YOU. Please grab your SACRED S.O.L. D.A.T.E. JOURNAL (Daily Action To Engage yourself.) TODAY’S SACRED S.O.L. STEP: How happy are you, really? Take a look at each of these 5 areas — your hope, awareness, purpose, play, and you.  Then ask yourself how can I heal "this" today? Take ONE action. Create a plan to take action in each of these 5 areas. Put it on your calendar. Commit to it. Commit to YOU. Commit to healing “your happy.” Thank you for being here, and allowing me to Sip On Life with you.

Great news starts with this and so does “HAPPY.” I just received a phone call from my daughter saying that she just got something that she’s desired for quite a while… We can spend a life full of time seeking “happiness” and miss this ONE KEY. What IF it’s not happiness that you seek? What if it's something deeper?... Do you HAVE to get what you want to be happy? NO. But you must do this… #1 You must KNOW what you DESIRE. Clearly. Certainly. Confidently. Creatively. Because this is the key to fully becoming… KNOWING your desires inspires happiness. Because it inspires YOU. Please grab your SACRED S.O.L. D.A.T.E.

Get to the bottom of your unfilled HOLE, and you’ll discover your whole. What IF "happy" isn’t something we make or create or choose….but it’s something we are. Seriously, you can’t eat your way to fulfillment. What IF “unfulfilled” is showing up as hunger…or physical desire that’s working against you and not filling you up, because what you're eating will never FEED YOU? IT was never designed to feed you. Fulfillment doesn’t come from what you EAT. It doesn’t come from FEEDING yourself. It also doesn’t come from fixing yourself. It comes from finding your voice and fulfilling what’s calling you. It’s time to get to the bottom of your unfilled HOLE, and discover your whole. How do you define happy and your ONE thing that will make you happy?

Time was never meant to be managed, it’s meant to be led and lived. These strategies will help you… It's time to become masterful at living your day in time. - Stop TRYING. Do. What are you doing? - Stop TRYING TO DO BETTER. Be. And keep doing. How are you being? Is this how you like and love being? - Stop TALKING only. WALK AND TALK. What are you talking about? Where are you walking? WHAT ARE YOU ABOUT? You see, if you’re going to LIVE TIME WELL, then we must look at the BIG PICTURE and how it all fits together. Otherwise you may have the pieces, but they’re either not TOGETHER, or they don’t FIT. Perhaps they’re NOT together because they don’t fit. What is the BIG picture that YOU SEE (and would like to see?) - Schedule your priorities. - Then prioritize them… - Define priority. What makes it one? Why is it one? IT'S BECAUSE OF THE BIG PICTURE. IT'S BECAUSE OF PURPOSE. Purpose is the context... Without context, there’s NO TIME for anything…because you’ll give your attention (time) to everything. Remember, your purpose is the context of the TIME you have on planet earth. Please grab your SACRED S.O.L. D.A.T.E. JOURNAL (Daily Action To Engage yourself.)  TODAY’S SACRED S.O.L.

After sharing yesterday’s podcast with you (Dreams Do This…) it became obvious that it needed a sequel (Part 2.) You can think of it as, “Dreams Do That…” Yes, they do this and that. But are you? Are you bringing life to your dreams? Here’s HOW… But first, another question: Are YOU doing YOU? You’re not only the carrier of your dreams, your dreams ARE YOU. You can think of it as your DNA. Yes, it’s in you, but it also IS YOU. Here’s how to bring life TO your dreams… Your dreams aren’t dead. They are simply resting until YOU wake UP. 1. See your dreams. (D)reams DREAM. EYES WIDE OPEN. What do you desire? If you can’t see it, it’s not a dream. It’s sleep. That’s right. See them. Visualize them. Stop simply carrying the life that’s you — fully see you while BEING YOU. Yes, this is how you’ll see you. WAKE UP TO YOUR DREAMS…IN YOUR DREAMS. 2. Acknowledge them by acknowledging YOU, and what you love and dream about. (R)ecognize the truth about you. Receive the gift that's you. What you ARE about. 3. Share YOU in your life. (E)ngage in life - inside and outside of you. Embrace all of it. It’s ALL you. SHOW UP. In the present. You are the LIFE in your dreams. 4. Speak to, and of, them. (A)nswer the call of your dreams. ALL IN. YOU bring life to your dreams by speaking to (and of) them (YOU) in the NOW. Not yesterday. Stop speaking about them as if they’re a “has been.” ALSO… Stop speaking in 2nd or 3rd person. Speak in 1st person. You’re the person in your dreams. Because if you’re not, then whose dream is it? Keep your dreams alive by sharing them with everyone - through YOU. By YOU living them. Now. SPEAK UP. SHARE. 5. DO. (M)ove with your dreams. Making them come true. Create the life you love to live. STAND UP. STEP INTO THE LIFE OF YOUR DREAMS. Dreams can only DO THROUGH you. Remember that dreams gather people. “We gather today to _______.” We gather to give our dreams life…this isn’t only on a special day like a “Wedding Day”… It’s the day you show up at the alter of your life and you commit to YOU, YOUR DREAMS, and those in YOUR LIFE…’til life do you LIVE. Please grab your SACRED S.O.L. D.A.T.E. JOURNAL (Daily Action To Engage yourself.)  TODAY’S SACRED S.O.L. STEP:  What can you do right now that you’ve dreamed about your whole life?

Today’s S.O.L. Story comes from a dream I had last night. After writing for more than 2- 3 hours, this is what I discovered about DREAMS: 1. Dreams happen between sleep and awake. You must choose to WAKE UP. 2. Dreams bring people together. 3. Dreams change people and changed people change the world 4. Dreams wake people up and feel exhilarating, yet RESTFUL. Okay, I’m going to sleep now…so I can choose to WAKE UP again. That’s the FUN part.  Please grab your SACRED S.O.L. D.A.T.E. JOURNAL (Daily Action To Engage yourself.) TODAY’S SACRED S.O.L.

Here's what's wrong with you... NOTHING. 1. NO. You've said NO to yourself long enough. You focus more on what you DON'T or AREN'T than what you do or are.  You focus on what isn't versus what is. Your DON'Ts are keeping you from discovering your DOs. Seriously! 2. THING. Webster defines "thing" as "an object that one need not, cannot, or does not wish to give a specific name to." Is it possible that you've been trying to give this "thing" a name, and perhaps it was never meant to have a name? Perhaps it was never meant to be singled out. Instead, it's part of a grander vision, picture, or solution. It's like defining your WHOLE life, by one feeling you have today. Stop trying to figure out what's wrong with you, and instead, discover what's RIGHT with you. I'm NOT telling you to deny a symptom or "feeling" that something really is physically or mentally "wrong" with you. NO! If you feel that there may be something wrong, by all means seek the necessary help from the professional most qualified to evaluate and help you. However, no matter what...remember what's also RIGHT WITH YOU. Got it? Please grab your SACRED S.O.L. D.A.T.E. JOURNAL (Daily Action To Engage yourself.) TODAY’S SACRED S.O.L. STEP: What area of your life, or yourself, have you been feeling like there's something "wrong" with you? Take an inventory of what's RIGHT with you, and see what comes up for you today. And of course, seek the professional help needed to discover the truth about what you're really experiencing and feeling.  Thank you for being here, and allowing me to Sip On Life with you.

How you see yourself is how you be yourself. How you be yourself is how you’ll see yourself. So how you’re BEING is MANDATORY. Or (WO)MANdatory… Powerless? Powerful? It's not about less, full, more, or less — it's about POWER. Power isn't a quantity, it's a quality. When you own you’re power it’s there, whether you’re feeling less or full. Here's how to access your power…and let the poison out…SPEAK UP. Show up. Speak up. Stand up. Step up and into the POWER that you are. Please grab your SACRED S.O.L. D.A.T.E.

Today I had an incredible revelation and realization while listening to my podcast... Recently I felt some resistant to making a particular decision, and I asked myself…WHY? WHAT ARE YOU AFRAID OF? As I listened to me speak and ENCOURAGE, the fear I had been feeling began to dissipate and I began to feel inspired, empowered…ENCOURAGED. EN COURAGE…means IN COURAGE. If you desire to have great courage, then you must be encouraged. Encourage yourself. Allow encouragement into your life. By what you hear, see, believe… The greatest encourager is TRUTH. Why? Because it brings freedom, possibility, and encouragement. Facts can change. Truth remains. Be encouraged. Listen. Speak. Live. Share. LOVE yourself by encouraging yourself and receiving the encouragement and courage that’s available to you — it’s IN you. Please grab your SACRED S.O.L. D.A.T.E.

AND CAN YOU HANDLE THE TRUTH? Start with whom you're asking. AND... Make sure that YOU are at the top of your list. Start by asking these questions first, then ASK.

Why are you allowing another person to “make you” versus you creating you and the desires of your heart...you creating "YOUR HAPPY?" First, go back and listen to yesterday’s episode, “Own YOUR Happiness!” Second, Own YOUR consequences and only yours. That’s right! And this may mean that you have to STOP owing everyone else’s. If you have someone in your life who continues to act in such a way that you’re spending a lot of your time trying to clean up their messes or your life is in chaos because of them… Then it’s time to take a look at WHY you’re choosing it. You may think that you’re not choosing it, but at the end of the day, you’re committed to it at some level. And you may say, no…but I’m committed to him or her, and our relationship. However, is this really a relationship, or is it YOU trying to change someone else so YOU can be happy. Is it a "relationship" or a "reaction?" If someone needs to change for YOU to be happy, then it’s time for you to change. Here's how... #1: Change your perspective. Become the leader in your own life. Own your own happiness and consequences to the choices you're making. #2: Change what you’re choosing (and creating.) Happy or unhappy? If you feel as though you must be unhappy to be in this relationship, then you must ask yourself if this is what you choose. You can choose happy, and if YOU no longer fit in the relationship because you ARE happy, then be willing to see it as it is. Is it possible that you’ve chosen to be in a relationship with “UNHAPPY?” And is it possible that you’re choosing to blame it on someone else? If you’re unhappy, it’s your responsibility to do something about it. Not someone else. But you may say, but what if they don’t change? Yes, there will be consequences for this, but they’re not YOUR consequences. Make YOUR choices and OWN your consequences, no one else’s. When you do, you won’t have time for that. Perhaps you’ve been so distracted by someone else’s unhappy consequences that you’re now taking them on as your own, and it’s keeping you from OWING YOUR OWN CONSEQUENCES. For example, the consequence (or result) of the decisions that YOU’RE making. Not the consequences that someone else is creating. That’s not only called enabling, but it’s called YOUR CHOICE to give someone else your ability to choose another way. If something in your life’s not working, then make a choice to do something different. Even if it means doing something that’s unfamiliar and uncomfortable. At the end of the day, YOU have the power to choose your attitude, your gratitude, and your actions. You have the power to choose to CHOOSE. Remember that not choosing is also a choice. OWN YOUR CHOICES AND OWN YOUR OWN CONSEQUENCES. Be true to yourself, and you’ll become your true self. This is the consequence (result) of living in truth. There’s no other alternative, unless you’re choosing someone else’s consequence(s). Please grab your SACRED S.O.L. D.A.T.E. JOURNAL (Daily Action To Engage yourself.) TODAY’S SACRED S.O.L. STEP: Where are you paying the price of your own happiness for someone else’s debt of consequences? STOP. Start owning your power to create your own consequences (results.)

When you take responsibility for your own happiness, and don’t expect anyone else to do it for you, you can own your happiness. Once. And. For. All. AND…for life. For yourself. We chase the illusion, or promise, of happiness, while running from the very thing that creates it. YOU, my dear, create it. Period. Once you create it, then you must choose to OWN IT by BEING IT. How? Stop borrowing it, renting it, paying for it, chasing it or running from it. OR...trying to be it for someone else. O.W.N. YOUR HAPPINESS. 1. Occupy it. And allow it to fully occupy you. You create what you desire, by taking responsibility and caring for it. AND BEING IT FOR YOURSELF. 2. Why? Yes, ask yourself why… If you’re happy, ask yourself “WHY?” If you’re not happy, ask yourself “WHY?” Not who or what? 3. Never expect someone else to make you happy. However, if you choose to be in a situation, or with someone who is constantly making you unhappy then repeat Step #1 and #2…O.W. O.W... (You know how much I love a great acronym.) Yes, it may feel uncomfortable, but it’ll be worth it once you discover the truth and create the “happy” that you desire. Please grab your SACRED S.O.L. D.A.T.E.

Today’s S.O.L. Story is inspired by my morning meditation in the rain. As I was heading out to my tree — while doing walking lunges — I felt the rain, but kept moving ahead. When I sat down in the wet grass, I smiled and had a moment of incredible gratitude that I was doing what I do regardless of what the weather was doing. And in fact, I kinda liked the misty rain on the face. Regardless of what’s happening outside of you…your body does what YOU tell it to do. Or what your brain tells it to do. That’s the natural, healthy order of things. However, if your body begins to dictate how things are going to go, you will NOT end up where you desire to go. So what’s it going to take? Think about THIS… STAND. S.T.A.N.D. Sit. Sit for a moment. Sit WITH you. Sit WITH it. Like meditation in the rain. Trust. Trust God. Trust yourself. Trust the process. Trust what you STAND for. Trust that your life is FOR you. Acknowledge. Acknowledge truth, and U in the middle of it. Stand in FREEDOM. No. Saying NO to what you need to say NO to in order for you to say YES and STAND. What are you saying yes to? What are you saying no to? D. Decide. Declare. SET A DATE. Do. DATE YOURSELF. Done. Please grab your SACRED S.O.L. D.A.T.E. JOURNAL (Daily Action To Engage yourself.)

Today’s S.O.L. Story is inspired by the beginning of my two newest addictions. 1. Bouldering — AKA wall climbing. And... 2. Letter writing with my new fountain pen, Rosie. And this is what they have in common. The desire to IMPROVE. The want to see progress. The need to grow. Yes, I believe it’s a NEED. Seriously, a basic requirement for life. Growth is memorable, because we’re geared for it. It’s when we’re growing that we’re most focused, but also it feels the most unfamiliar. When I look at the word, IMPROVE... I think of the desire to PROVE ourselves. OR to prove something to ourselves. Let’s face it…this drives a lot of behaviors. However, if you truly believe in yourself, do you really need to PROVE “it” to anyone else or prove yourself to anyone else — including yourself? I see “IMPROVED” as I M PROVED. OR, I am proven or I am proof. What is the evidence that you’re seeing each day that proves you’re growing? Truly, it’s addicting…because it’s required for LIFE. That is, if you desire a happy, healthy life. If you desire a memorable life, then you must have a life full of growth. It’ll not only be more memorable, but also more fun. Especially when you change and grow by choice. Growth by desire, decision, and dedication create DOING that goes beyond “HAVE TOS” into a LIFE OF BEING and HAVING. Please grab your SACRED S.O.L. D.A.T.E. JOURNAL (Daily Action To Engage yourself.) TODAY’S SACRED S.O.L. STEP:   Where in your life do you feel a strong desire to IMPROVE? How are you measuring your progress — where you are and where you’re going? You must locate where you are. You must clearly define and declare where you’re going. This is KNOWING. Then get doing and flowing. THIS IS GROWING. Remember, you cannot expect what you’re not willing to inspect. Thank you for being here, and allowing me to Sip On Life with you.

Today’s S.O.L. STORY is a continuation of the conversation we’ve been having about going all out…all in…discovering…fear…scared…sacred… I call it “The Metamorphosis…” It’s a natural process, although it doesn’t feel natural. However, it is. In fact, it’s SUPER NATURAL. And it’s as natural as breathing. But it takes daily practice. The only way to get great at something is to put in the reps, the time, the attention. The practice. Knowing this has got me thinking about how each day I have an opportunity to get real. Real great at living today. And of course, God knew it was going to take more than one try. So I’ve been given a lot of “at bats” to practice becoming great at my day. Given this, I believe we were never expected to be GREAT at living life. Instead, we become great at what we’ve been given to practice. Every. Single. Day. So as we become great at today. We have the opportunity to practice the art of living it for a lifetime. Because we become great at living TODAY. Isn’t that lovely? No pressure. Only today. We don’t have to be great at life. We’ve only been given the opportunity to become great at living and loving today. The one thing that I’ve noticed keeps me from doing both WELL every day, is FEAR. So I’ve decided that I’m going to love fear like never before, because as long as I do, fear won’t scare me anymore. Because we all know that life comes and goes quickly. We show up. We live. We transform. We transition. That’s it. Fear didn’t create the beginning or the ending. It simply travels with us along the way. To allow anything or anyone…especially a feeling…to keep me from doing this or that is no longer something I choose. NO WAY. Not in my today and lifetime. Who am I to think of or talk to fear like this? I am who I say I AM. And today I say I AM. When you know the way it ends, everything leading up to it is simply an experience. A moment. It doesn’t change the FINALE. It only changes the way in which I get there. I choose to get there on a road paved with love, creation, hope, inspiration, and SACRED tales of the adventurous, romantic journey. Who am I? I am who I say I am. I am free. To be. ME. And I am not going to stop ME from that incredible sacred experience. Fear or no fear. I am here. It’s simple. It’s a decision. Fear has kept me from truly seeing me. From truly being me. From fully engaging with, and expressing, me. From rising up and exploring me like never before. From experiencing me. Love. Life. In an unrecognizable way. Only because I hadn’t quite fully recognized THE WAY. MY WAY. TODAY. WOW. Thank you God. Thank you Shannon. Thank you LOVE. Thank you life. I’m redefining fear as dear, and I’m going with her. Perhaps I’ll also grow with her… Fear gave me an image of myself. It gave me a way in which I see — a way in which I imagine. But what IF that image isn’t the WHOLE STORY? What if there’s something still yet to be revealed? The only way I’ll know is to go. Keep going. Growing. Flowing. Knowing. I invite you to join me... Feeling. Healing. Hoping. Inspiring. Loving. Living. Sharing. Together. That’s all. Healing and loving it ALL. I dare you to see ALL OF YOU. Please grab your SACRED S.O.L. D.A.T.E. JOURNAL (Daily Action To Engage yourself.)

Today's S.O.L. STORY was inspired by a few intense conversations I've had recently. Is it a disagreement or resistance to growth? Are we here to know it all, or to explore the possibility of knowing and growing in all circumstances? What would that look and feel like? What does resistance to growth look and feel like? Tight. Heavy. Resistant. AND...it will persist until we learn the lesson. It looks small. We look small. And everything else looks big and blown out of proportion. How long are you willing to continue to go head to head with your life before you choose to go and grow with your heart? So, here's how... Open. U.P. U - Understanding. P - Possibilities.  In the PRESENT. Open UP and share. Share.  Yourself. This opens YOU UP for opportunity and power. Please grab your SACRED S.O.L. D.A.T.E.

Sometimes the biggest clouds are the ones we carry with us. And sometimes the only wave necessary is the decision to wave goodbye, while waving hello. We don't control a lot of things in our lives. BUT... There’s one thing that we do have full control over. The choices we make. We can react to life, or respond and adjust to it. Whatever storm you’re in right now, you can simply declare…IT IS. And YOU get to choose, I AM… That's right.  IT IS. I AM. When we can hold the sun within us, we’ll never go without.  Check out my Instagram for daily posts of my journey from SCARED to SACRED — in front of the camera...@doctorshannon!

Growth is uncomfortable. There’s no way around it, but through it. Today’s S.O.L. STORY was inspired by a couple things… 1. A decade old picture. 2.

It's time to count the cost, so you can create the value. Kim McMillen shared, “When I loved myself enough I was able to be treated to a $50 haircut and enjoy every minute of it.” The cost of you not loving yourself has nothing to do with a $50 or a $500 haircut, but it has everything to do with you, your life, and life's work — and enjoying every minute of it. The pain of you NOT loving yourself could be costing you your life! Your pain is NOT your gain, unless it leads you to the cause. What is the cost of you NOT loving yourself? This is the C.O.S.T. Certainty. Without certainty, you don't get clarity. With clarity comes confidence, because confidence is created. If you lack certainty, you are left with confusion and chaos. Has your "don't know" taken over your "do know?" So much so that you're doing nothing? Options.  You have choices. You SEE your choices.  One of the greatest powers we have available to us is our ability to choose. This is why we have freewill. Freewill is life. How free does your will feel right now? Soul. This is your mind, will, and emotions. What is the cost of losing your mind? The cost of losing your will? The cost of emotional bankruptcy? I'll tell you... You will lose love. You will lose people. You will lose relationships — Yes, with break-ups, divorce, and/or broken relationships that will make YOU feel broken. You will lose trust. You will lose boundaries. You will lose space. You will lose power. You will lose perspective. You will lose protection. You will lose security. You will lose confidence. You will lose hope.  You will lose belief. You will lose desire. You will lose capacity. You will lose the feeling of significance. You will lose respect. You will lose money. You will lose joy.  You will lose peace. You will lose your ease. You will lose health. You will lose freedom. You will lose opportunities. You will lose momentum.  You will lose self. That's right. Self. Self control. Self respect. You will lose possibilities. You will lose connection and connections. You will lose direction. You will lose ability. You will lose promotion. You will lose future you look forward to. You will lose a past you love to remember. You will lose your present presence. You will lose your sense of purpose. You will lose your sense of self. You will lose touch of who you think you are, or could become. You will lose dreams. You will lose desire. (Once again.) You will lose your inspiration (this leads to expiration.) You will lose...your life. It's time to count the cost, my dear. How much more of YOU are willing to risk simply because you're not willing to give yourself the ONE thing that you have to give you right here, and right now? That one thing is... Time. This is your life? What's your life worth? What's your day worth? What's a day in YOUR LIFE worth? What are you trading for your life? Whatever you're doing MUST be worthy of your life... Please don't trade another day of your valuable LIFE TIME without loving yourself well.

The dis-ease comes and goes, like a chronic ailment, but it IS possible to discover the EASE that you’re seeking.

What is it? What would you and your life look like without all the other junk that’s not working well in your life? Kim McMillen said, “When I loved myself enough I started eating organically grown food (except for those occasional fruit pies of course.)” It's time to begin growing some REAL. Real S.O.L. food. A real YOU. A healthy, WELLTHY you.  It's starts with identifying what's R.E.A.L. in your life. WHAT'S R.E.A.L.? Reality.  Identify it. Exposing. What's real, what's not? Facts? Fiction? Awareness.  What do you really desire? Love. What does your heart have to say about your matter? This is the TRUE HEART OF YOUR MATTER. Please grab your SACRED S.O.L. D.A.T.E.

Kim McMillen said, “When I loved myself enough I stopped seeking “experts” and started living my life. There’s no greater teacher than the voice within you. Are you listening to the #1 teacher within? This expert gives us wisdom and insight about life, and how we’re experiencing our living in it. It gives us LIFE to learn, and to earn with what we’re learning. Lessons to teach us about life, and life to teach us lessons. There’s no greater teacher and lesson than LIFE. L.I.F.E.… Leading. Lead your life. Inspiring. Live an inspired life. Inspire life. Feeling. Where there’s feeling, there’s healing. Engaging. Fully engaging with your life. LIVING IT FULLY. Are you creating with it?

Experience brings expertise. As long as we don’t EX ourselves out. Please don't EX yourself out. Take yourself out, don’t EX yourself out. Date yourself well, and find out what your inner expertise is telling you. Listen to what your inner wisdom, your inner teacher is sharing with you.

Kim McMillen learned, “When I loved myself enough I began pouring my feelings into my journals. These loving companions speak my language. No translation needed.” It what you hear, speak, speaks to you. It’s the voice you listen to. Are you listening? It’s not the listening you do with your head. But it’s the listening you do with your heart. The eyes of your soul. Your S.O.L. Language... Sees Opens Loves See it. It sees when you show up as you be…to see. And to speak up. Can you express what you’re seeing? Are you allowing yourself to be seen? Can you see what your heart sees, hears, feels, and knows? Write it. It opens you up when YOU open up. Open Up. Pour yourself onto the pages of your S.O.L.DATE JOURNAL. It loves. It loves because it listens, and allows you to listen and hear. What do you hear? What is your Love Language? Give that to YOU, and you will begin to see in a way that allows you to be seen and heard. Your S.O.L. language...the only thing missing is U. What do U see? What are U saying?  Please grab your SACRED S.O.L. D.A.T.E. JOURNAL (Daily Action To Engage yourself.) TODAY’S SACRED S.O.L.

Kim McMillen said, “When I loved myself enough I lost my fear of speaking the truth for I have come to see how good it is.” The #1 way to win with fear is to speak truth to it. That’s right. That’s it. The greatest truth is LOVE. So in essence what I’m saying is, Make Love With Fear. Your offspring will be sacred courage and brave fearlessness. Even when you feel afraid. How do you do this? S.P.E.A.K. IT. S.P.E.A.K. TRUTH... Say it. Play it. Eat it. Act it. Know it. And as Nike would say, "Just Do It." Please grab your SACRED S.O.L. D.A.T.E.

Kim McMillen reminds us, “When I loved myself enough I quit trying to be a savior for others.” Perhaps the one in need of saving is YOU... Here's what you must do. STOP trying to be everyone else's savior, or looking for everyone else to save you. AND... Stand Up. With yourself.  Otherwise you could be drowning in 2 feet of water.

Kim McMillen said, “When I loved myself enough I began buying a hostess fruit pie for the teenager in me who loves them so. Once in a while. Cherry.” What power did your inner teenager hold in her heart and hands? She held… 1. Imagination. 2. Innovation. 3. Rebellion. 4. Revelation.

The next time you hurt, ask yourself these 3 questions and unlock healing you never knew you needed. Kim McMillen said, “When I loved myself enough I let the part of me that missed Kent feel sad instead of trying to stop her from loving him.” In pain, ask yourself this... 1. Is this coming from love? Celebrate it. 2. Is this coming from fear? Fear of losing pleasure or experiencing discomfort? Commit to creating versus losing. 3. Is this BIG enough to me that I’m willing to do whatever it takes to turn it into the pleasure I seek? That’s the BIG question that matters most. Because you can feel the pain of lost love, fear of losing it, or you can make pain your gain by going ALL IN to what matters most to you. Pain isn’t your problem. Running from it is. Do not allow your pain to be in vain. Allow your pain to be your greatest gain. Please grab your SACRED S.O.L. D.A.T.E. JOURNAL (Daily Action To Engage yourself.) TODAY’S SACRED S.O.L. STEP:   What’s behind your pain could be your greatest pleasure. You’ll never know until you’re willing to release it by releasing yourself into it. Where in your life have you been running from pain? Feeling afraid? Ask yourself these 3 questions and see what comes up for you today.

You’re fighting the wrong battle. You’re trying to WIN, versus winning. You’re trying to fix, instead of find. It’s time to find out a few things about you and what you’re really fighting. It comes down to 2 things. Your attention and your action (or reaction.) 1. Your attention. Where is it? Not sure? Look at where you are. I mean, really look. Give yourself the time and attention necessary today to really see where you are, and what attention got you there. Where you are today is a result of the attention that you’ve put toward something (or not toward something) that got you to where you are today. You can continue to fight against the critical voices from your head, or from those around you, or you can simply recognize them and keep moving. Notice I said, recognize, I didn’t say PRIORITIZE. Simply give recognition and cognition to the voices, and views of what really matters to you. Kim McMillen reminds us, “When I loved myself enough I stopped trying to banish the critical voices from my head. Now I say ‘Thank you for your views’ and they feel heard. End of discussion.” 2. Your action. Wherever you put your attention, that’s where you go. If you put your attention on what doesn’t matter, you won’t matter either. Your actions become reactions. Instead of creations. If you love where you are, create. If you don’t love where you are, create. But stop reacting and creating more of what you don’t love. Stop fighting against what doesn’t matter. Start winning with what does. Our reasons will make us quit or keep going. They are either the cause or the effect. Choose your reasons consciously, and create what matters to you. Please grab your SACRED S.O.L. D.A.T.E. JOURNAL (Daily Action To Engage yourself.) TODAY’S SACRED S.O.L. STEP:   Where in your life are you still engaging with voices that don’t line up with your truth. Write a letter to them today, and release them to go on their merry way. Be done with it.

Kim McMillen said it so well, “When I loved myself enough I realized I am never alone.” First, you must realize it. Realizing it start with REAL for a reason. It’s time to get real about how you feel, then recognize the truth about those feelings. YES, get REAL about how you feel so you can heal. Then redefine them. This is how I’ve redefined ALONE. The next time you feel alone, remember that there’s another way to see it. There’s another way to be in it. There’s another way to be in it — whether you’re with someone or not. BE. WITH. YOU. So you can feel yourself. So you can get real with yourself. So you can heal yourself. And you know how you can do that? Redefine ALONE as… ALLONE. You’re not a bunch of broken pieces and you don’t need to be fixed. You are ALLONE. YOU GO ALL. ALL IN. ALL IN TO THE ONE THAT IS YOU. ALLONE. Connecting with ALL SIDES of you. Realizing and recognizing YOU. Then redefining the parts of you that need your attention, heart, and meaning. That’s that. That’s it. That’s the NEW ALONE...ALLONE... S.O.L. NOT SOLO.
