EP 255: The Illusions Keeping You from Your Dreams

The Bridge to Fulfillment

Do you wake up most mornings feeling like you’re just going through the motions, as though you don’t have control over the life you’re living?

You need to make money to have security, so you spend a huge chunk of your life at a job you don’t enjoy.

You fear what might happen to your bank account or lifestyle if you take a step back to learn what truly makes you happy.

You feel like life presents you with more obstacles than opportunities.

But what if those obstacles were the opportunities, and you’ve just been viewing them through the wrong lens?

Today on The Bridge to FulfillmentⓇ, Blake shares how the fears we hold onto reveal the true nature of our beliefs. When you dare to seek out the reality that hides behind your beliefs, the possibilities for joy and happiness are all around you.

You’ll learn how to take back control of your circumstances and see clearly that life isn’t something that’s happening to you, it’s happening for you.

Favorite Quotes:

1. “If you believe that you are unworthy, you will create outcomes that make you feel that way. If you believe that life is unfair or that it has to be hard or painful. If you believe that you have to work a lot of hours in order to make money, if you believe that you have no power to change the things that you want to change in your life, you will create those outcomes.”

2. “I was so stuck in not understanding how to protect money as a resource and therefore that security is a resource, that I couldn't see anything else. I couldn't see that there was abundant opportunity for me, I couldn't see that. I had tremendous skills that could be used in different ways. I could only see the obstacles.”

3. “Life is always teaching us lessons. The question is, are we listening and are we learning them.”

4. “Life really is a beautiful, endearing adventure, and the places in your life that don't feel like what you want, those aren't the obstacles. They're not the things happening to you. They are the possibilities and the opportunities. They're the place to grow.”
