My over-thinker and hyper-achiever have been going mad recently, so much so that I cried about the bus not coming in time.
Why?
Because of a fear! One that has been getting bigger and bigger as I spend more time thinking about the future of my Lil Brand!…
“I won’t generate the success I feel I have potential for.”
“I won’t live up to my dreams.”
And how do I know that?
I have been listening to all the podcasts, brainstorming with chatGPT for hours and desperately searching for how I can grow and develop. It has been messy, panicky and all over the place - in my head and so in my actions.
The tears and nervous energy I have been feeling - these are what flagged that I needed to slow down and untangle my mind a bit, cause clearly something wasn’t working for me.
So having spent time with my journal and taking a Lil moment to reflect, I noticed…..
I have lost my confidence because I have lost my why.
Ok, so what to do about it?
What I need, to get back into ‘flow’ is to build up my self-belief.
For goodness sake it’s ironic, cause that’s what I always talk about!
And that comes from empowering myself to truly believe in my real goals and desires- and that takes connecting to those wants and dreams!
Getting real here…
The truth is, the mess and the noise was because, working on monetisation and focusing on the algorithms of videos - are actions which align with the goal of success - by making money, and if that is what I am truly wanting then my Lil Philosophy is diluted.
What I really want is to feel success from connecting to over-thinkers and hyper-achievers.
My goals right now are to spread the Lil Message!
(The why, the reason, the want, is what drives you truly, and when you find it and believe in it, that’s when things start to work. It is the ‘flow theory’ again and my goodness it is sounds woo woo but it’s so real. )
My why, is to communicate with like-minded deep-thinking change-makers and build a community where we feel understood and supported.
That doesn’t come from a shit load of emails, it doesn’t come from me making an extra bit of money from a paywall. Sure, I can’t live off sharing my Lil Tips and Tricks for free forever, but at this stage of my life, I have the time and support to be able focus on what I truly want.
That is how I will grow confidently, how things will get less messy, how my mind will feel less tangled.
So, with that all in mind, here is a video of my next Lil Leaps - my next steps for building the Lil Brand that I feel truly proud and excited about.
Here is what is changing:
I am Making newsletter monthly rather than weekly and making it more about my Lil News - less email pile up for you, more concise - because….
I am Launching a Lil Blog - the Lil Leaps Helps/Tips/Tricks/Stories and content will be more accessible, more personal and more me! And that will be on….
My Lil Hub - a Lil Website, where I bring it all together! Where you will find Lil Chef, Lil Yogi and Lil Leaps all in one place. There will be my recipes, My events, my Lil Tips, Lil Tricks and soon, the ‘Lil Community channel’
I am developing a Lil Community Channel - a chat that actually makes the Lil community real and the Lil Help tangible. It will be the ultimate way for us to connect and grow together.
So for now, things might seem a Lil quieter, but don’t worry, I am not going anywhere. I am just making space for the new exciting stuff that feels more true to my why. And really I am proving to you my Lil Philosophy!
Please reach out via email or dm, I love to hear from you and am always here for a Lil Listen.
Love from Lil xx
