“Now is the time for guts and guile.” – Elizabeth Taylor

With everything going on in the world today, it certainly is.

You must learn how to be courageous in the face of a world that may discriminate against you based on things you can’t change, and fight for the opportunity to be recognized for the content of your character.

Still. In 2016.

I’m not one to spend too much time complaining about a problem once it’s been identified. I’m solution oriented, so I quickly move into “trying to figure out what can be done” mode – and if nothing can be done, I start thinking about how I can remove myself from the situation.

I’d like to propose that you take on a similar orientation today, especially when it comes to creating the life that you deserve….

Don’t spend too much time lamenting. Channel your frustration into something useful like building courage.

There’r always going to be challenges, and some of them will be very scary. They will require all of the courage that you can muster to overcome, but you can overcome them, especially when your courage is strong.

This month’s Motivating Mindset is all about Courage and how you can invite more of it into your world while creating the life that you deserve.

We’ll explore the 6 Primary Types of Courage and how you can get stronger in each area in a way that’s simple, easy, enlightening, and uplifting.

You can start building the courage to create the life that you deserve by clicking on the image below to watch this month’s video…

When you’re done, download the Courageous Heart Training and work through the exercises at your own pace. They’re designed to help you build courage in any area of your life and you can use them anytime you need to boost your bravery. (You’ll have to enter in your email address which will sign you up for the monthly Stay Inspired newsletter, but don’t worry, I won’t share your info or spam you — and you can always un-subscribe if you don’t love it.)

I’ve used this technique to overcome fears in all areas of my life and to gain the confidence to put myself into situations that could be seen as intimidating for a smaller brown human female….

And you know that if I can muster up the courage to go for it, you can too!

Above all, remember: This is your life. Use the tools and resources that I’m sharing with you this month to go out and get the Courageous one that you Deserve!

Enjoy,
