Welcome back to Day 9 of 31 Days to a LifeĀ of Purpose!
When you are intentionally pursuing a purposeful life, it helps tremendously to surround yourself with people who will support you in this. I am very blessed that my husband is such a great cheerleader for me. He is open to any new idea and encourages me to pursue my dreams. I am currently visiting my parents several hours from our home. When I spoke with my husband on the phone last night, he asked me if I was making time to write. He knows this is the dream I am currently pursuing and has been so supportive in encouraging me to find time for writing.
Having supportive people requires that you share your goals with the people you trust. This can be a very difficult step, especially when sharing goals that you have struggled with in the past or that require great change. Fear of failure can also prevent you from sharing your goals because you don’t want others to know if you don’t achieve them. I want to encourage you to be brave and to share anyways. Allow the people who care about you to support you and encourage you in reaching your goals.
Cheerleaders are meant to support the team by creating energy that motivates players. Gather your cheerleaders so that they can do the same for you. Let those who care about you motivate you and celebrate your success!
