Have you ever caught yourself uttering the phrase, "I could do it if I wanted!"? Maybe you glossed right over it without much thought. Or maybe it began to haunt you, wondering if you really could do that thing?
In this episode, I want to challenge you to stop saying "I could do it if I wanted" and start taking action instead. Dare I say, “Put your money where your mouth is!” (At least, that’s what I’ve told myself on occasion.)
Specifically, I’m sharing my personal journey from casual runner to training for a 5K for the Julie Valentine Center.
Why? Because it perfectly highlights the importance of confronting your fears and truly committing to your goals. Plus, it demonstrates the power of dedication and perseverance, which is needed for any dream to take root.
Key Takeaways
- Challenge Your Vocabulary: Replace "I could do it if I wanted" with either commitment to action or genuine disinterest. Learn how to tell which is the true for you.
- Confront Your Fears: By understanding that this phrase often masks a fear of failure or societal pressure, you can overcome obstacles and face your challenges head on. Ultimately, bringing you closer to living your unique purpose.
- Take Actionable Steps Forward: Identify and list the things you've been saying you could do and decide if they truly matter to you. Then, commit to taking action on one of them.
By the end of the episode, you’ll have a clear process for identifying how this phrase has been holding you back and what you need to do to reclaim control of your thoughts and actions.
