I have been writing and re-writing this log for weeks. Every time I try to write, I have nothing to say...

I think that I am still in a process of finding clarity. Am I making the right decisions? Am I moving in the right directions?

The uncertainty has left me slightly lacking in the creativity department.

But as I've been asking and listening, I do feel certain that something is coming. (It could be the barrage of 11:11s and 35 combos though.)

So, what's on the lab bench this week? Things are heating up...

I was thinking about all the usual marketing plans and, I'll be honest, they were not enticing me.

I may be a chiropractor, but coming up with heath-related content does not excite me.

In fact, it's a huge snooze-fest for me. (That's super weird, right?!)

So, what does get my juices flowing and my heart palpatating? 

Freedom...

It's been the concept of freedom for at least 5 years. Financial freedom. Time freedom. Freedom to do whatever the hell I want!

It consumes me. And the idea of helping someone else find their freedom from the shit job that makes them want to flip tables and throw punches...

Yeah... that's what gets my voice all loud and passionate.

So, I had this thought, "Why am I over here talking about health when it's just not what I really want to be talking about?"

(I kinda already knew the answer to this but I'm a stubborn human and I wanted to see my options.)

Do you ever put off the real thing you're supposed to be doing because procrastination but also you're just hyper-focused on the idea and you have to dive into it because nothing else matters until you do?

(That happens to me a lot.)

I decided to feed my curiosity and just see what it would look like to just switch up my current path.

I put a whole plan together. Brainstormed some lead magnets. Did the things.

And then I took a step back and looked at all of it. It just doesn't feel like the right time. In the back of my brain I just kept hearing, "Not yet, Crystal."

Thank God for intuition, right!

But there was one piece that I was like, "That's a good idea. Maybe I just start there."

And that turned into, "Well, why don't I just do that but with my current trajectory?"

Uh duh!

But here's the thing. I don't think I would have come to this conclusion without a whole different piece to the this story.

Since I'm still on my whole hiatus from social media (except to post), sometimes I end up on YouTube learning stuff. (I know. That's kind of just replacing the doom scroll on Instagram, but I stop if I feel like that's why I'm there.)

Sometimes you are led to what you need to see.

I was watching a video on female marketing or something. She was talking about how you have to BE the person who DOES the activities in order to HAVE what you want.

That got me thinking... that's true. Am I really doing the things that I need to do to get where I want to be?

Hell no. I'm playing it safe. I'm hiding.

So, I walked myself through who I have BE to have the business I want. And if I was that person, what would I be DOING?

(Let's just say it would be a little more.)

Listen to the nudges. I truly believe just charging forward with my emotions is why it's taken me so long to get anywhere.

Listen to the quiet pulls. Take the step back. Ask questions.

There's always a reason for everything and, if you listen and pause for a second, you will probably get less lessons and more forward motion.

(Don't get me wrong... you need to move. I just now think it's a good idea to check with God first.)
