This week, my marketer/publisher asked me if I was all in and willing to step into my greatness. This got me to thinking. Before I can Soar into my Greatness, or ask you to soar into your greatness, we have to be willing to take one step into our greatness. And, what keeps us from taking that step is fear.

• Fear of the unknown
• Fear of success
• Fear of failing
• Fear of not knowing how
• Fear of high expectations
• Fear of low expectations
• Fear of anything.

How do we face that fear/step into our greatness? At the end of the day, we have to take action. However, at least for me, before I can get to that step, I have to make sure I’m in alignment with my Self/spirit and have an attitude of gratitude. If not, then I may need to go back and tweak one of these areas.

My best way of tweaking is journaling, praying, walking, exercising, and meditating. By indulging in daily Self-care practices, getting clear on who I am, and keeping focused on my dreams and goals—not the negativity or expectations of others—then I can do what is Mine to do with joy and ease.

What about you?
How are you stepping into your greatness?
Are you “all in” with your dreams?
If not, what’s stopping you from stepping into them?

Lynn Grabhorn in her book Excuse Me Your Life is Waiting says something to the effect that you have to “want your dream, feel your dream, and believe that your dream will come true,” and I always add you must live your dream.

To want your dream, you have to know what you don’t want.
To feel your dream, you have to be able to imagine it.
To believe your dream will come true, you have to have faith in something bigger in you.
And, to live your dream, you have to be willing to move, step, and take action.

Are you ready to step, soar, and take action?

I’m challenging you to let go of your fear. Bless it for being there, release it from your heart, and forgive yourself for judging you. Everything is as it should be. Everything is in divine order. This is just a gentle reminder that you were born for a purpose, a purpose full of light and promise. Use that twinge of fear as a message that this is what you’re supposed to do. Then, instead of fretting or analyzing, step up, step out, and step into your greatness. In this way, you will change the way you see, and change the way you live.
