I heard a great quote the other day, "Don't wait for your light blub moment. Turn the light on yourself".
In this particular case, the words came from a guest on the Today Show, that had lost over 100 pounds. In this weekly segment, each of the featured guests have had great success losing weight and keeping it off naturally. Each week the same question is posed, "What was your turning point,(the light blub moment, the Ah-ha) that prompted your decision to lose the weight?"
I just loved this woman's viewpoint! We can all learn from it. It doesn't matter what challenges you may have in your life or what goals you are hoping to accomplish. If you are waiting for someone, or something to light that spark for you, you could be hoping for a long time.
What are your dreams? Goals? Desires? How long are you willing to wait for that spark, that inspiration, the right people to come along, the right time? Why can't the right time be now?
Change can sometimes be frightening and uncomfortable. It's easy to stay in your comfort zone because it is familiar and it's what you know. Is that really where you want to be?
Is there something that you've been putting off? You just might amaze yourself at how easy it really is, how quickly your confidence can grow, and how your fears will begin to fade away as you start taking steps towards that light switch. ;)
