It’s really healing to see how it all comes together [Dream Status Report]

I am siting down to do my Dream Status Report for this week to check in with myself and my dreams and what I need and what my dreams need, for the coming week.

Doing this, consistently over time, IS MAGIC.... this is where your dream becomes REALITY. This is where you stop and notice: How am I showing up? Is this working for me? What else might be needed? This is where we figure things out!! There is so much we can learn by witnessing our own process.

AND... Consistency is hard for most of us these days! So - I try to do this on Sundays, and write about it here, to remind you to also take a few minutes to check in with yourself and your dreams.

One thing I do a LOT of on our calls is try to help people TAKE MORE CREDIT for their successes.

We have so many different kinds of successes on the way to a dream. The healings, and shifts and brave steps taken.

And sometimes we don't fully TAKE CREDIT for these wins. We can be grateful for them and happy about them without fully acknowledging how much WE DID THAT.

I am always looking for that and pointing it out because building that sense of pride in how we are building the path to our dreams can help us be more confident with our next steps. It can help us ride out the rough parts more smoothly to remember and take credit for the incredible things you have made happen in your life.

And one thing about dreamers is that we do tend to look ahead to what's next and we can be so deeply aware of that gap between where we are and where we want to be that we stop noticing how far we have already come.

So when someone is sharing that a thing went really well I often ask them to stop and notice how it didn't just "go well" - they were brave and committed and they MADE THAT HAPPEN and are they giving themselves enough credit for that? And every time people say something like "Oh. WOW." as it lands for them.

It is so healing to give yourself the credit you deserve.

So I am doing that with myself this week in my Dream Status Report.

Looking back over the last few months it's amazing to see it all came together.

This last week was AMAZING in terms of outer progress and feeling like everything is coming together, but to look back over the last several months and remember all the steps I took so that a week like this was possible - that's really.... healing.

It's HEALING to acknowledge ourselves and our courage and commitment to our dreams and the good work we do in service to them.

Last week I was noticing where I needed to step it up and this week I STEPPED IT UP.

At the same time - I wasn't wrong for "not being stepped up" before, that's just where I was in my process.

This is the magic of consistent a reflection practice - it's easier to notice when something needs to shift.

There is never ONE RIGHT WAY to be, we are always showing up in different ways... sometimes there is more inner work to do, sometimes we need to rest, sometimes we need to re-think things, sometimes we need to take quantum leaps and sometimes we just need to get to work.

But we never need to do all of these things, all the time.

Finding the RIGHT thing for you to focus on is easier to do when you reflect more often, which is why I want everyone to do these Dream Status Reports with me.
