There were so many times I took an L and bounced back. Story of my life...literally. My goal is to share my tea and triumphs (new challenge coming soon) in hopes of you understanding the quest. I have failed at many things. I’ve made many mistakes, I’ve shared some regrets. We all have. What matters most is the “last night took an L but tonight I bounce back” of it all. My dream life isn’t exempt from trials just as JESUS himself was never exempt from temptation. It is indeed the triumphs that I want to put on a pedestal. Bouncing back from failure prepares us to leap into destiny. The moment I decided to take huge leaps in my life, that very moment I felt the fear but did it anyway (as Kyshira would say), is the grandest moment of me bouncing back. I bounced back from the childhood I endured, I bounced back from the broken hearts I’ve shared, I bounced back from the dreams I didn’t pursue. Ultimately, I walked into my purpose, defined my future and let go of my failure. Failing is natural and it’ll occur time after time. When you set out to live the life of your dreams, you’ll still fail at something. I did. I failed my very first client by being inexperienced and not giving her exactly what she needed. I failed with one of my events and barely broke even (talk about being discouraged). I’ve failed numerous times with something as simple as follow up. I can look at these moments and think Wow, what a shame, but honestly I bounced back gracefully. My inner ballerina arabesques on my goals daily by helping me to never forget my WHY. Don’t forget that your dream life isn’t about what you attain or how successful you become. It’s truly reflective of the love and passion you share on a daily basis and the power that extends you. Fear and failure will always be there but your strength and grace is what makes you the real winner. Dreams Win. Always. Just know you’re not alone in this journey.
Until next time,
Peace & Sweet Dreaming,
Kiylise Crutchfield, Chief Dream Engineer
