87. Connect To Your Success

Big dreams can feel amazing and terrifying at the same time. You're excited, then frozen, waiting for someone to give you permission to start. But you don't need anyone's permission. Giving it to yourself is the practical first step that breaks the cycle of waiting.

Try imagining your dream has already happened. Journal about it in past tense. Feel the relief. When you mentally complete it first, your nervous system starts to believe it's possible. What felt overwhelming becomes just the next thing to do.

But go deeper than the surface goal. "Write a book" is just an outcome. What really matters is why. Why you? Why this message? When you find that thread- your real purpose - you tap into energy that lasts way longer than applause.

Fear will show up. It always does when something matters. The answer isn't to be fearless - it's to build capacity. Ground yourself. Take one tiny action. Each time you do, you prove the discomfort won't kill you.

Quick practice: close your eyes, feel your feet on the ground, and let an image of your realised dream appear. What's one small next step? That step -whether it's outlining a chapter or sending one email - is your way forward.

The gate was never locked. Permission was always yours to give.

But actually, why is that piece important? Why do you want to do that? What's the thread within you that makes you go, I've got to do it? Not only have I got to do it, or I am doing it, or it's here. What's that? And it's that piece that allows you to connect to your success. Welcome again to another episode of the energy of success. And today I'm going to dive into connecting to your success. Because I see so many people and witness it in lots of areas of life where people have these really big dreams, really big aspirations, things that they would love to do, that they get really excited about, they would really love to do, but there's a block, or there's a piece, or there's a permission that actually stops them starting that success journey that stops them really connecting to it. And I really do understand that because I've been on that level for many times. It's been a lesson that I've had to learn many, many times, this deep connection piece. And there's an element about when you have really big dreams, they can feel so big, overwhelming, they can feel like incredibly powerful. And that part of it can feel so big that you don't know where to start. So the first part for this is permission to be powerful. Allow yourself to be in that space of, do you know what, this is my big dream, and do you know what? This is my life. And do you know what? I'm gonna go for it. And do you know what? I'm gonna know that there's gonna be certain fears, and you know what, there's gonna be certain people that won't get it, but also this is me backing myself. So that's the first piece. If you've got a massive dream that you're just like, oh my god, this just feels massive. Where do I even go from here? I it's like a hot potato, I can't even touch it. Then, first up, permission to be powerful, permission to go there, permission to explore it, permission to take one step closer, permission to allow yourself to already have completed it in your mind, permission to journal around like it's already done. I'm hoping that you get the piece around permission. The next area around connection really is around allowing yourself to connect to the desires around the success. So say the success is I want to stand on stages or I want to write books or something like that. Say that's what the success is, that's what you would love to do. Now, when you know that, you can connect to the desires of why really, why do you want to do that? What is the other desire? Yeah, it will be a fulfillment for you. Tick, yep, it will be a status and an elevation of your brand or your personality or your way of being. Tick, yes, it will allow you to get all the things out of your head and into the hands of masses. Tick, yes, it will be um available to educate people that you might not ever meet. All of those things, but actually, why is that piece important? Why do you want to do that? What's the thread within you that that makes you go, I've got to do it. Not only have I got to do it, or I am doing it, or it's here. What's that? And it's that piece that allows you to connect to your success. Now, for a lot of people that I've worked with, a lot of people that are in my space, that is like a higher power. That is something external to them, whatever thread you believe, there's something external to them that's like, I can't not do it. It's part of my service, it's part of my soul's contract, it's part of my purpose. And I can't explain it, and I don't have to, because it's something that I just know I've got to do. So, for those of you that are in that space and then you're not connecting, let's really open up the expansion and the capacity to receive exactly the next steps. So, allowing yourself to really go, okay, I want to write this book. Okay, I know it's going to create this massive impact. I know I really want to do it because of something external to me saying you've got to get this out. What's next? Okay, it's because I want to share the body of my work, or I want to share my thoughts on things, or I want to share this crucial information that has changed my life, or I want to share these real tools and techniques that have been phenomenal in the work that I've done all the way that I've lived my life, or I want to share, or I want to share, or I want to share, and understand what it is that you are here to share and see the golden threads throughout your whole life that you will put into your book. For example, or stand on stage, and there are elements with this connection piece that feel so deep for people, so deeply inside, and fear is also felt so deeply, and for some, fear just overruns. Some people, fear takes over, and some people will leave this lifetime not doing half the things that they wanted to do, and leave with an element of their life unfulfilled. Now, my mission and my purpose and my passion and the company called I Dare to Leap is for to help support people leap into whatever it is that they want to do, leap into their success, leap into their passions, their purpose, leap into the possibilities of what's next, leap into different layers of their consciousness, whatever it is for them. But I'm a real catalyst for helping people leap in. So let's tune in. If you're out walking, just slow your pace. If you are in the kitchen making food, just tune in a little. If you've got the time and space, just close your eyes. Not if you're driving, and just focus on your feet for a moment. Feel the earth beneath your feet and really feel grounded and supported in the vessel that is your body. And know that you can keep taking the steps and you can feel the earth beneath your feet, and you can keep moving, and life can keep moving, and things will happen. But you can intentionally change the direction, you can intentionally change the speed, you can intentionally change the focus. See your success, see what's come to mind as you listen to the podcast, see what's come in. What would you really love to do and why? What comes in as an image, just allow it to drop in, drop it into your body, maybe you'll feel it in your heart, maybe you'll feel it in your sacral, maybe you won't feel it anywhere, and that's okay. Just allow any sensations to move through you and notice what comes in. There may be elements that come in in your mind, there may be sensations that you feel in your body. You may have all goosebumps bumps or goose pimps when you feel into all of it. And just allow, allow, allow, allow like never before. Allow yourself to go there, to just see, to just feel, to just experience, to just embody. Oh my goodness, if I connect to this piece, I really want to do this element, this purpose, this way of being, this aspect of my life. If I just share more of that, or if I just do more of that, or I just connect to it in a very different way, life would be very, very different. Tune into what comes up around the permission to be powerful. Allow yourself to see it. Does it look like it's a million miles away? Does it look like it's really close? Does it look like you can't see it? Allow yourself to feel it. Can you feel it anywhere? Can you feel it viscerally everywhere? Can you feel it like it's external to you or internal to you, or can you not feel it at all? And know that it's all okay. Does it feel like you can touch it, you can taste it, you can smell it? Does it feel that close? You can smell it.

And as you bring yourself back, check in with what's come up, what have you allowed, why where have you given yourself permission? What does the success even look like? Can you see it, feel it, taste it, smell it, touch it? Can you have any sensey feelings around it? And just allow and come back and listen to this episode. You'll get more from it. It's more of a transmission and activation for you to connect to your deepest desires, your truest success, and your authentic energy. And that's what this is all about. Let me know what comes up. As always, Instagram, I am Charlotte Carter. I love to share what people say about the podcast. Huge love to you all.
