Finding the balance between gratitude and ambition is a challenge that many of my clients, myself included, struggle with. I remember how I used to tell myself, "When I make X amount of money, then I'll finally be happy and enjoy my life." Yeah, sure!
As soon as you reach the amount of money in your bank account, the number of clients in your business, or the number of people signing up for your freebie, you'll move on to chasing an even bigger goal. Eventually, you'll reach a point where you feel like you're doing something wrong because no matter what goal you achieve, it never feels enough. It becomes this constant loop of never feeling satisfied and always wanting more.
That's why in today's podcast episode, I want to help you to find the balance between gratitude and ambition! Instead of being impatient and focusing on "where you are not," I want you to look at "everything you have achieved" over the last couple of months. Join me as I talk about why gratitude is so important in your life, a gratitude exercise that will help you appreciate the present moment, how to release the pressure of "shoulds," and more!
