As I write to you today, I am coming off of a week of major momentum. I am in the middle of several major projects and I am so excited to see everything coming together. This is shaping up to be an incredible fourth quarter and I am looking forward to accomplishing even more over the next several months. Last week I talked about the winds of change and how we are stepping into a time unlike any other in history. I continued that theme on my empowerment call last week. We had a powerful time and major shifts occurred as I spoke at length about how to break into more in every area of your life. The choice is really yours whether you fail or succeed. Too often we are looking at the circumstances around us. However, what I have learned over the years is that your choices are creating the victories or defeats of your life. New possibilities are beckoning you but you must have the ability to perceive them.
Have you ever thought about what life would be like beyond your comfort zone? Will you dare to leave the place of familiarity? When will you venture into the unknown? I believe with all my heart that the winds of change are blowing and we are stepping into an unprecedented moment. This is a time where it is imperative that you break out of cycles of comfort, convenience and familiarity. You are being beckoned to a higher place in your life. However, if you want what you have never had you must be willing to do what you have never done. This journey has taught me that you cannot continue to do the same and expect to shift your life. How many times are you going to repeat what is not producing results? When will you stop complaining about what you have settled for? The reality is that you will never see anything different in your life until you start moving in another direction. This can be the greatest time in your life but it will require you to venture out into the unknown. According to the Oxford Dictionary unknown means not known or familiar. Some synonyms for unknown include obscure, undisclosed, unidentified and unexplored. The word that grabbed my attention was unexplored. The emptiness of your life is the product of what you lack the courage to explore. You cannot embrace new frontiers until you are willing to explore. I am in a time of major transition in my life. God is opening new doors and creating new avenues to bring this message of empowerment to the world. While I am excited about all the new opportunities that are coming my way it has forced me out of my comfort zone. Familiarity is the enemy of new frontiers. Many of you feel the pull and divine nudge to tread new places but your fear of the unknown is holding you back. Sometimes the only way you can step into another dimension of life is to dive. Stop playing it safe and dive into the unknown. The unknown does not have to be a scary place for you. The unknown is a place of significance in your life that is waiting to be explored. You are distanced from the uncommon life when you refuse to dive into the unknown.
In closing, it is time for you to stop living your life in cycles of familiarity. You know that there is more for you and you will never discover that more living in mediocrity. It is time to follow the beckoning and dare to explore the great unknown. I guarantee that what you are leaving behind cannot compare to what you are getting ready to step into. You have been in this place long enough. Your days of constriction and confinement have come to an end! This is the moment to move out of the place of convenience and move into the change that you have been longing for. You need to stop being so cautious about the unknown. Caution will not break the barrier of containment in your life. Courage is the only force that will break through the barrier of containment. Caution will not bring you into new possibilities. You must be audacious enough to dive into the unknown!
