Patricia – I understand your pain. If you are tired of dealing with money then do what you are most confident doing and the money will come along for the ride. That’s your responsibility. Be strong like only you can.

Katie – You are a gem. You really get it and I’m so gratefully pleased to have met you. You understand the impact of pure encouragement and I love you for it.

Sophia – Welcome. Keep following our intuition because it knows what’s good for you. You are your own wisest counsel.

Kingsley – Welcome. Indeed any action small, big or in between works well because it changes our perspective and kills resistance. I’m grateful for your visit and for your service to action.

You’re right. Hesitation is the big dream killer. I encourage my clients to break down the goal into itty-bitty chunks. The fact that they only have to take one little action at a time usually helps them move forward.

where will be if the next generation of leaders never steps up?
We are them and the time is now. Tom you are brilliant. I am SO sad to miss the big rally. I am camping on a mountain for New Years and yes, I live in Maine!!! But I am sending thoughts to you and will be there for the 2nd Big Rally with out a doubt.

Keep on rounding up the troops. It is our time to shine.

My inspiration to action plans seem to involve other people spending money….
still working on this and why I do not wish to make money….I am just so tired of dealing with money….

I am fasting right now….food and money….on a water diet – still have to pay the water bill…pouring rain outside.

Responsibility plays a role in here?

Stacey – That’s the best way to learn by our mistakes. Congrats. But you are spot on – we must follow our energy. If it’s not clicking it’s because it is a drag and holds no engagement for us. We must be fully engaged and enthused about what our work and about who benefits from it.

Sara – Your welcome. Yes combining intuition and action is so powerful and an absolute necessity. Too many think the idea itself ought to sweep them off their feet. Baloney! We need our gut knowing, our heart’s desire and our mind as Stacey suggests to get the best read and then of course we need to act. Success requires that we engage authentically.

Tom — I liked this post and your suggestions. I agree that intuition is a strong resource in finding your true calling or passion. However, as you said…it can point me in the right direction, but it’s up to me to pay attention and take action…that’s why I think this post is so good.

In my case, writing has always been a calling for me, but I hesitated or was afraid to really put my writing out there. Blogging opened a big door for me. For the first time, I’m willing to take a chance and have just posted the first part of a fiction story I’ve written. This is something totally new for me, but my “gut” says I need to do this.

Thank you very much for this post. It came at a good time:~)

I agree with Tom about procrastination…occurs because we are not enthused about our path. I’ve lived it.

“Doubting, over-analyzing and hesitating only add to your confusion.”

Yes. Tough lessons learned along the way. A data collector and analyzer by nature, this has hurt more than helped me. For me it comes down to integration of body/mind/soul.

Trust your gut. (Soul)
Collect enough data (mind)
Take some action (which in turn helps you collect even more data!) (body)

Andrew – You don’t need motivation that’s from the outside in. What you want is inspiration to create what would be best for you. Are you for sure working on what you want? Have you gone deep and committed to creating something that is aligned with who you are? In my experience procrastination occurs because we are not enthused enough about our path. Answer those questions and I’ll be happy to point you to some posts.
