Writer's picture: Nurturer #1Nurturer #1



Let's cut straight to the truth and be honest with ourselves: You're here because you are tired and fed up with the way your life is going and you know that something needs to change within you. That pivot you seek needs to happen not tomorrow. Not next week. Nor next month, or next year, but right now and you feel it with every fiber of your being it must happen to get that bubble out of your stomach, that agitation out of your mind, and that ache out of your heart.


The time for half-measures is over. You've spent years dancing with mediocrity, collecting excuses like if they were souvenirs from a luxurious vacation. Procrastinating as if you have all the time on earth and you just realized you don’t. Look around you, numerous lives are being lost every day and then they are forgotten. But something's different about you today. You can feel it in your bones you must change, you can’t go on another year like the past few or one. 2024 taught you what you're fed up with and capable of surviving. Now 2025, will show you what you're capable of achieving if you are up for the challenge.

Let's be crystal clear: Procrastination isn't about time management; it's about fear management. Every time you say "later," you're choosing comfort over growth, safety over success, mediocrity over excellence. But not anymore. Starting today, you're declaring war on living average.


No more:

·       "When I feel ready"

·       "After I learn more"

·       "Once everything's perfect"

·       "When I have more time"

· "When I am an empty nester"

 

Your life is happening now. Tomorrow, honey is not guaranteed to you nor anyone else for that matter. Your tomorrows have somehow turned into years of neglect and debilitating fear that has you wallowing in being stuck. While you wait for the perfect moment, opportunities are passing, age is creeping, dreams are fading, as is time in general; that precious currency you can never, ever earn back is slipping away every second you come up with an excuse and delay to not live or achieve what you desire in life. Here's your brutal truth: In five years, you'll either be sharing your stories of successes or explaining why you're still stuck in a rut that you have been saying you are going to get out of for years. You will be depressed and riddled with anxiety because there's no middle ground and no comfortable compromise.


The Blueprint for Unstoppable Action:

1.    Start before you're ready. Action beats perfection every single time.

2.    Embrace the discomfort. Your growth lives on the other side of fear.

3.    Rise before the sun and own your morning. Those quiet moments hold magic that can shape your entire day.

4.    Guard your energy fiercely. Your time and attention are precious currencies.

5.    Master your money mindset. Financial peace starts with small, intentional choices.

6.    Cultivate stillness. In our chaotic world, silence is a superpower. You are able to hear more clearly from God, the Universe, or whomever you believe in when you are calm and silent. Get alone in nature with no shoes if at all possible. (this is grounding)

7.    Track every win, no matter how small and celebrate. Progress compounds.

8.    Nurture your mind through daily learning. Feed your curiosity like a hungry flame.

9.    Move daily. Your body achieves what your mind believes. Oh, and watch your words. Don't want it, don't say it. You will notice pretty quickly how powerful you are with this one. Good or bad you get what you think and say.

10.  Chase sleep like its gold. Quality rest is the foundation of overall energy and excellence.

  1. Practice unparallel kindness to yourself first, then watch how it ripples outward.

 

The Simple Action Formula:

·       Less planning, more doing.

·       Less excuses, more execution.

· Less complaints, more compliments and positive self-talk.

·       Less procrastination, more being proactive, and purposeful.

·       Less fear, more faith.

·       Less I will wait until tomorrow, next month or year & more, I am going to do it right now.


Today’s Action Assignment:

1.    Grab a Journal or Notebook and Pencil or Pen. (No tech here) We are going old school.

2.    Choose your (1) non-negotiable goal for 2025 you are whole heartly seeking to achieve. (write it down using the SMART Method) {Specific. Measurable. Attainable. Relevant. & Time Bound.}

3.    Break your actionable tasks into monthly milestones that will help you reach the goal you seek to achieve.

4.    Set three actions you'll complete in the next 72 hours or less to get things rolling.

5.    Execute without excuse.

6.    Check-in with yourself as often as you like but at a minimum 1x a week.


Remember: The universe doesn't reward good intentions. It rewards bold action.


Today, you have a choice. You can decide to not acknowledge what you have read and return to comfortable mediocrity, or you can decide that 2025 is the year everything is going to change for the better for you; after all no day is promised to anyone.

The difference between where you are and where you want to be is one decision. Make it now.

Your future depends on it is and is watching. What will you show it?


Act Now: ⇒ Write your goals ⇒ Set your first three actions ⇒ Start within the next hour or two.

No more waiting. No more procrastination. No more excuses. Your time is now.


Conclusion:

In conclusion, 2024 is gone. Its lessons, failures, and victories have shaped you, and possibly helped you grow and made you stronger, but they don't define your future. You're standing at a crossroads, and for once, every excuse you've made, every "tomorrow" you've promised yourself, every dream you've pushed aside; they've led you to this moment. But here's the beautiful truth; you're still here. You're reading this because deep down inside, you know you're capable of so much more. You are feeling it with every ounce of your being.


This isn't about New Year's resolutions that fade by February; oh no it is not. This is about declaring war on mediocrity. It's about looking in the mirror and finally deciding that enough is enough. “It is time for me to make a change already. It is time for me to go in a new direction. It is time for me to work on my mind, my heart, words and faith. Ask yourself what life would look like for me if I don’t make a change in 5, 10, and even 20 years from now? Wow! Do I even have that much time to be contemplating stay the same another moment?”


The world won't wait for you to feel ready. Your dreams won't pause while you gather courage. Time, that precious, non-renewable resource will keep ticking whether you move forward or stand still. Who do you know that time paused for? This is not a movie, this is real life; your life we are talking about here. Today, is the day you shall choose excellence. The 2025 reality check you need is written here in these words. Stop playing small and start living bold. Are you ready?
