Unlock Your Success: The Power of Commitment and the first 30 Days✨

I say random , crazy shit , which is why I called this podcast the way that I did , and I really hate long drawn out intros , so let's fucking go . Well , it's February the 3rd and I want to know if you are listening and you took on a challenge beginning January , like did you make a new year's resolution ? I always do .

There was a period of time where I would instead I'd convinced myself right Allowed the fucking internet to convince me that New Year's resolutions were terrible , that no one kept those resolutions , and so we should have a word of the year . Guess what ? I never fucking remember what my word of the year is . It's too intangible for me to actually achieve anything .

I need a New Year's resolution . I always have . I probably always will . I don't think you can convince me otherwise , and there has been years and times in the past where I definitely made the New Year's resolution and then shit the bed on it within the first month .

Absolutely Usually those were the times where I chose a big goal or an intangible goal like a goal way too ambitious for me to continue , and then other times it was just too intangible so that it didn't drive me to achieve it , and sometimes I didn't know why in the fuck I was going to do it .

So if you don't have a why for it , there's no drive to actually complete it . But the years when I actually didn't give up , I achieved so much more than just the goal that I had set for myself . It was life-changing in so many more ways .

And this is the thing is , when we commit to ourselves , we commit to our goal , we commit to the path we commit to ourselves . It's like we go first and the universe just starts to provide us with a whole bunch of magic . I was having a conversation with my podcast co-host , lee Cuban .

So she and I have a podcast called the happy half hour and you can find us on Spotify or Apple podcasts and I always search the happy half hour with Lee and Sandra Then you'll get to us . But I was talking to her the other day and she was mentioning about how there's like something magical happens at day 30 .

The day at day 30 , when you've really committed to this goal and you've shown up every single day for 30 days , really focused on that for the month of January , because of course , it was the first 30 days of this 90 day challenge that I've created called the Work .

On day 14 , I'm not even kidding On day 14 , my life turned into a fucking dumpster fire , like that's how it felt in my brain , like just everything went to shit all in the same day . And I really , truly believe that if you're meant for greatness , you're going to have to be able to handle the flip side .

So when you're meant for greatness , you're going to have to be able to handle the flip side . So when you're meant for amazing things , pretty shitty stuff is going to happen .

And so when this day 14 showed up and everything just started to fall apart a little bit , I just recognized that it was something that I was meant to grow through on the way to success and I just kept my eye on the fact that day 30 was coming .

When I look back over the last month , when I look back over the month of January of this challenge , it is literally shocking to me how much has shifted , how much . I have shifted In so many ways . My life has up-leveled like tenfold and in ways that I didn't anticipate . The other women in the group are doing the same thing . I even consider this podcast .

To be honest with you , if I look back , just as I'm speaking here , I'm thinking about this . I was watching Taylor Quinn , or I was listening to Taylor Quinn , who had announced that she was doing 365 days of daily podcast episodes , and I was so inspired by that and I thought you know , I'm really struggling with consistently releasing weekly podcasts .

I didn't like the editing of them and I just I felt like I wasn't sure what to say . I was struggling with coming up with content and she was doing 365 days . So I mean , surely I can do 30 . So I committed to 30 days .

At the end of the 30 days , I started realizing I had more to say and I started realizing that the conversations that I have with my clients and with my friends and in like , just in general , they mean something to people and I could help people . And so after the 30 days , I realized , um , hey , I have a lot more to say .

The more I speak , the more podcast episodes I released , the more shit I have to say , the more podcast episodes I release , the more shit I have to say , and after 30 days I thought this is pretty fucking easy , it's pretty fucking fun and I have tons of people that are following me and that are listening to me . Now let's keep going .

I have done a few years of weekly podcast episodes and I'd fallen off to the point where there was months where I didn't release anything . And , by the way , this is what Taylor was doing as well . She was showing up weekly , I believe , and then she stopped releasing podcasts completely .

And then she just popped up out of nowhere announcing 365 days of podcasting . But I announced I didn't think that I could do 365 . So I committed to 30 and I publicly announced that I was going to do 30 days . And here we fucking are . It has been 130 episodes , daily released episodes , and I haven't missed a day . I released one on Christmas day .

I released one on the day that I didn't feel good . I released one on January 1st . I released one on my birthday . I released one on days that I'm traveling . I release them on days when I have company . Here I'm able to do so much more than I ever ever believed that I could because of two things . I set a goal .

It was obtainable and I committed to myself . Obtainable and I committed to myself . There was no way that I was going to not release a podcast episode for those 30 days . And it is now 130 days and I still am not going to miss an episode releasing . I'm not going to miss a day . I don't know how long I'm going to continue for , but maybe 365 days .

Action just breeds more action and it's like when you go first , the universe follows . It is co-creating with the universe . I can't fucking wait to see what happens at the end of the 90 days of the work challenge . But I mean I'm just going to keep continuing , and some of the women already are saying that they are too , which is super cool .

But I mean , what kind of magic happens when we just take action towards our goal ? Like what kind of magic happens when we commit to ourselves ? It's next level magic because the universe favors people who take action .

So if you have a goal and you haven't yet achieved it , or you want to shift your life in any way , choose a goal , commit to yourself , join the challenge . If you want accountability , groups fucking work , but so do partners . Set your goal , make a plan and commit to yourself every day . Hold on for 30 fucking days .

Show up every single day for 30 days and then come back and tell me how much your life has changed . Days and then come back and tell me how much your life has changed . Thank you so much for listening . I hope you've had some laughs , maybe some ideas , and that you've been inspired to take some type of action toward the life you've always dreamed of .

If you feel so called , I would love it if you would share with your besties and leave a review down below . I look forward to bringing you along on this journey and I will see you in the next episode .
