Turn life lemons into lemonade

How to turn life lemons into lemonade

Turn life lemons into lemonade and you will forever design the life you love. Doing it takes patience, persistence and positivity to find new dreams, passion and purpose. In this blog, I share a personal story of my son Shae Howorko, who was destined to live his passion for professional hockey, but one freak accident shattered that dream forever. Shae did come out of his life changing personal crisis, and is now again pursuing a new dream by helping others.  The lesson to be learned is that if life gives you lemons, just make lemonade. Don’t give up on finding your purpose and what drives you. If one door shuts, just open another one. If you keep plugging forward and focus on becoming the best version of you, you will eventually turn those life lemons into lemonade. It’s that simple.

Your purpose in life is to find your purpose

Your purpose in life is to find your purpose

Your purpose in life is to find your purpose. The biggest barrier for people in finding their purpose, their best life, is that they are stuck on autopilot – spinning their wheels in a dead-end job, in a mundane life, and going nowhere fast. Spinning your wheels fast on one spot for too long will get you stuck in a rut you can’t get out of. You lose the ability to know what you want, and the confidence to act even if you did know. In essence, many people fall asleep at the wheel of their own life.

How to break through the B.S. holding you back

Learning how to break through the B.S. holding you back… will enable you to finally design the life and business you love.  If you are reading this week’s blog, it is likely you have “bull shit-belief systems” (B.S.) – fears and limiting beliefs holding you back from becoming the best version of you.

Although you may have a grasp on your life mission or purpose to take control of your life so you can enjoy more free time and financial abundance – you just can’t seem to make progress because the B.S has a stranglehold on you. But you are at your limits… you can’t take mediocrity anymore… you are ready to do what it takes (break through the B.S.) to create the income, lifestyle and freedom you want.

Congratulations!

Break the psychological chokeholds

Break the psychological chokeholds strangling your success

So how do you break the psychological chokeholds strangling your success – holding you back from becoming the best version of you… and design the life and business you love?

The first thing you need to do is understand what a psychological chokehold is!  A psychological chokehold is a mental limitation creating fear and limiting beliefs in self, that holds you back from busting into your best life. You have psychological chokeholds when you never take responsibility to change your life. You create excuses and blame others for your circumstances.  You get emotionally caught in the overwhelm of busy-ness and lackluster fulfillment. And as a result, you never move from desire – to become more or experience more in life.

The second thing you need to do is a “check up from the neck up” to see if you have any chokeholds that need to be obliterated. When I finally stopped to consider my own situation, I became aware of the chokeholds holding me back. I had strong fears and limiting beliefs holding me back from taking necessary actions to design the life and business I loved. I was zigging around in circles, going nowhere fast, like a rat on a caged wheel (aka, the “Rat Race”).
