Mahatma Gandhi is quoted as saying that we should “Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever.”  Too often we heart of people being told to live each day as if it were their last day on earth. Personally, I’ve never liked that suggestion, to live as if the end is waiting just beyond the horizon, waiting to trip me up just as I’m hitting my stride. During all of the manic living, are we really taking time to surround ourselves with the joy felt or the pleasure of livin

Being comfortable in our Status Quo is a myth.  We may feel that we are just fine because the status quo remains the status quo. We can just stay in this place, in this way and nothing will ever change.  But change comes, even touching the walls of our comfort zones and try as we might to keep it out, it will prevail.    As human beings, we were made for more. We were not meant to remain the same. We were made to be more, do more, move, live, thrive, grow. It's time to disrupt your Status Quo!

Self-care is not selfish even though at times it might seem that way. When your calendar is full, when your life is going in a dozen directions, you might find yourself sliding self-care further down on your own to-do list. It’s been said that you cannot pour from an empty cup. We overdo, we overbook and we run out of steam until all we are left with is an empty vessel, our cup has become empty. It's time to disrupt the Status Quo!

Fire Starters from This Episode

"Critics are not your audience. They are your background noise."

"Criticism is literally cosmic confirmation that you've already crossed a line worth noticing."

"Their criticism is their autobiography, not your biography. They're telling you their story, not writing yours."

"The watchers think they're writing your story. In truth, they're only adding soundtrack to your success."

Action Steps

  1. Recognize the Static: Identify criticism as interference, not important messaging
  2. Decode the Translation: Understand what critics are really revealing about themselves.
  3. Control the Volume: Decide how much attention to give to background noise
  4. Use It as Fuel: Transform criticism into confirmation that you're moving forward
  5. Focus on Your True Audience: Remember who actually matters in your journey

  • What does the criticism you receive reveal about the critics themselves?
  • How can you reframe negative feedback as evidence of your growth?
  • What would change if you viewed criticism as confirmation rather than condemnation?
