Things Got Better After Saying Goodbye!
By this, I mean the analytics on my Youtube channel. They got BETTER!
What?!
It's so surprising and at the same time, just the answer I needed to keep going with the process of starting over!
Learning to let go can be one of the best lessons we can learn in life.
Whether it's a person, a relationship, or even a business. Understanding that something is no longer worth your time investment is one of the keys to designing the life you truly want.
Although it can be tough at the start to cut bait, sometimes it's the exact thing you needed to find clarity for yourself, your direction and so much more.
I'm finding this out with the tough decision to let the Youtube channel go. Watching the metrics on the last few videos has been exciting and validating in more ways than one! Although it is something I've been attached to, for the last few years, letting it go felt like part of my routine was just *poof* gone.
I've watched many of my clients and subscribers make similar decisions, closing businesses that no longer aligned with who they had become, major life changes (children leaving for college, divorces), and simple things like delegating work related to our business babies!
Unfortunately, leaving us with a feeling of uneasiness and forcing us to find new footing.
All of these things are real attachments, parts of our lives that are hard to give up.
Here's the thing that gives me solace. When you are clear on the direction you are going and YOUR why, looking back at these changes no longer give you anxiety, but provide you with a sense of peace.
That doesn't mean the change will be without struggle or doubt. It means that you are sure of your decision and ready to move forward.
In my book, that's a major win!
Over the next few weeks, I'll be adding about 5 old videos to my new channel at one time to give it a jumpstart and I'll be back in the groove of creating more content for you!
Please let me know if there's anything in particular you'd like to see.
Can you think of a time that you made the tough decision to let something go, but every time you started to doubt yourself, you were reaffirmed in that decision?
Now, let's GET S.O.C.I.A.L.,
