Shedding some light!

Nov 092011

Sometimes it takes just one more time hearing it. And then, the light shines bright!

I had the privilege of traveling to LA with my husband and two coworkers to check out Anthony Robbins live. That is one special Man. He has the heart of lion. He stops at nothing! He gives only 110% + when he hits the stage. Not to mention the man loves to dance, and in that dance is the celebration(the first thing we have in common,dancing and celebrating)! BOOM!

The man has created the life that he leads and loves! I am full on board with that mentality and choice for my life! He is a very sexual man, which brings a whole other energy to the table! IF you have read Think and Grow Rich, there is an entire chapter dedicated to the driving power of sex. Sex desire is the most powerful of human desires. With this comes imagination, courage, will power, persistence, and creativity. Lets just say, spending 24 hrs in a room with that man was an amazing experience.

I walked on fire, more like coals, but the temp was burning at 1200 – 2200 degrees, and I chose the next phase of my life. Sometimes we come to a fork, and it is a difficult point in the road that you have to make a choice. Do you continue down the path that the many travel or do you take the path less traveled? There is comfort in the path that you know, you are good at the path that you are familiar with, your friends are traveling that road, you know you will shine on this path. But, I am not looking for good, I am not looking for comfort, I am not interested in what everyone else is doing, for I know that time has asked me to move in a different direction.

I choose the road less traveled.

Life stops for nothing.

Nov 022011

I think we all know this but when you actually want it to stop and you realize it doesn’t is when it really hits home.

How many things are you juggling?

How many things have to go right in a day to make it to the end and say, “good job, you took two steps forward today.”

But what happens when shit hits the fan and you do not want to show up for the next appointment because maybe you need a moment to cry! What do you do, cancel? NO! You put your shit behind you, put yourself together and JUST DO IT!

How long can a person last with that choice? A little bit!

Balance is one of the most critical actions to take in life. Some people call it living in the zone. Everything is working, everything is powerful, and when the bump happens you are so on point that you make choices that seem to flow. How do you create life so that you have that moment to cry, make a choice, and move on and become better from it.

Support system. You need a mentor. You need an accountability partner. You need people in your life that believe in what you are doing!

Know what you want, put the people on the bus that need to be there, put high octane fuel in the tank and GO!

I am a big beliver in having it all. And I am a firm believer that you can. Bumps, what bumps?

Futuristic

Oct 272011

I had this guy tell me that he could not help himself, he’s futuristic.

You are ready today to see what will be there for you tomorrow.

Not only that, you are actually creating what you want the future to look like. The likely hood of you receiving your possibility is great! Not just good, but great!

To Jess Estrada and Randal Stetzler for stepping up this week. Two excellent coaches at CrossFit Central.

And, a shout out to Conner Moore. He has taken on the challenge of becoming a CrossFit Central Coach and is the futuristic guy at the beginning that I was talking about.

Signature Series Success

Oct 172011

“It’s not me, It’s you.” Carey Kepler

What am I talking about? This semester in the Carey Kepler Signature Series we have 13 amazing women who committed themselves to redefining their lives over the course of three months.

What takes place when you open up a space for someone to create opportunity for their life? Limitless possibility.

How simple you say. If it is so simple, why aren’t more people doing it?

Creating space with the intention that something good will be created.

I am glad to be able to provide a space for 13 women to create the life of their dreams. Watch out world – we have some difference makers making moves like never before, you are receiving the ripple and may not even be realizing it.

Ladies – keep up the work – - your payment is occurring today!

Opportunity

Feb 032011

We all live such rushed around, busy lives that we often overlook opportunities. We think we should do them but we are too busy. We really must do it to get what we really want or what we think we want but we are too busy. Because we do not know what the outcome or the impact would be by choosing to slow down and take the time, yet, another opportunity passes by.

This happens all the time in many situations. For example we had Chad Vaughn at CrossFit Central for a full day of Olympic weight lifting training. Those that know about my snatch know that I should have been at the training. Well, I waited and did not go. I put it off till the end and when it came time to commit it was easier just not to go and pay the money to get trained up by an Olympic Coach on Olympic movements that I am not great at. Does not really make sense does it? These opportunities do not come very often and they don’t come at all if you are not looking for them, or even creating them in you mind so that you will recognize how and when they (opportunities) present themselves.

For those of you that have taken the time to reflect and meditate on what you want your year to look like, good job. If you have taken then time to actually write out your goals and visions, even better. Then if you actually started to break down your goals in to 3,6,9, month goals you have taken further steps to make sure that you get what you want. And if you are actively participating in your goals daily no doubt you will achieve what you are aiming for. But perhaps you are one that started to think about your vision, thought about writing out your goals and haven’t gotten around to it, you are going off of your memory, and you think about what you want to do but because you have nothing written out, you float around aimlessly hopeful that you will have the life of your dreams. (note: not going to happen, and if it does it will take quadruple as long)

There is an opportunity for you to take action on your life. form3 is this Saturday. It is a women’s only event creating space for you to write down your vision, write out a purpose statement for yourself, and write out specific goals for your life, that you want to achieve, that you want to make a true possibility for you.

At the best price ever, $100, you can spend a day with dynamic women creating the life YOU want. Sounds pretty great! Do not miss this opportunity to take Action Now. Saturday from 9 – 5.

Personal Power

Jan 222011

Do you know your own power?

What does it take to understand that you have power?

Does someone need to tell you your power?

Do you train your self to understand and know this power?

“I have come to the frightening conclusion that I am the decisive element. It is my personal approach that creates the climate. It is my daily mood that makes the weather. I possess tremendous power to make life miserable or joyous. I can be a tool of torture or an instrument of inspiration, I can humiliate or humor, hurt or heal. In all situations, it is my response that decides whether a crisis is escalated or de-escalated, and a person is humanized or de-humanized. If we treat people as they are, we make them worse. If we treat people as they ought to be, we help them become what they are capable of becoming.”
— Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

We poses the power.

How are you treating people and elevating them?

I ask myself on occasion; “Can I do it? Do I have what it takes?”

My answer: ” YES, YES you can do it!” But when someone else believes in me, it re enforces my personal power. When someone else treats me as I want to become, I am empowered by external encouragement. A choice to elevate those around you will elevate you and them.

Empower someone today!

Future of Possibility

Jan 092011

I am CrossFit Challenge kicked off Friday night at CrossFit Central. An amazing evening as Jeremy Thiel opened up by congratulating everyone for choosing. Choosing to create something for themselves. I took it a step further by inviting each athlete to create goals for themselves for 2011, not just the 8 week challenge. We looked at 5 areas of our lives: Career, Personal, Financial, Spiritual, and of course Health/Fitness. Taking the time to write out your goals will have an impact on you forever. That is why form3 is your next action step!

On February 5th, 2011, myself, along with Crystal Nelson and Jessica Sharrett, will create a space for women to build their life.

I will be assisting each one of you in setting powerful, positive, present goals for your life, for 2011! The form3 Event is the first of its kind coming to the CrossFit Community. Empowerment, Vision, and Strength, who couldn’t use a little more of that in their lives?
This event is for you to take one full day for yourself. Take a day to dream, to create a powerful life you love, to design the life that you live, and to learn what drives you while you stay strong and healthy for you and for those in your life!

Are you a 2%er?
