Hi, it's Mary Schiller, author and coach of MarySchiller.com, and I want to thank you for clicking the link to watch this video with a big secret to getting paid to be you. Uh, before I reveal that, I wanted to just give a quick shout out to this application that I'm using to make these videos, which is called Loom. It's at useloom.com. And since I let my current clients know about this option to do video coaching instead of the Zoom calls, A few of them have hopped on over and we've been having a blast exchanging videos via Loom. It's been really, really fun. So if you're considering an option, you really might want to try it because it's a fun way to engage in this coaching process and you get your, your questions answered really quickly. So are you ready for a big secret to getting paid to be you? Now, this is something that I did not see at all until actually fairly recently after I had already started my own business a couple of years ago. And it really became crystal clear literally just like last week. Okay, so this is a very new insight that I really feel could be helpful to you. I used to feel like I couldn't do what I wanted to do until certain things were lined up, you know, until I had paid off all my credit card debt, until I had, you know, straightened out certain relationships, until this, until that, you know, until I could see a way clear to making a certain amount of money before quitting my job or whatever it was. There were a million things that looked like ducks I had to line up in a row before I could actually start doing what I wanted to do. And what I realized was so different this time around was that I actually didn't do that. I didn't wait until anything looked the way I thought it was supposed to look before I just dove in and started living the life I wanted to live. You don't have to wait. You don't have to wait to start living the life you want to live. And if part of that is working for yourself, you can dive in and start doing that right now. Nothing needs to happen for you to start doing what you want and start living the life that you want to live. That may seem really obvious to you, but it definitely wasn't obvious to me. And it really wasn't until I started looking back at these last couple of years and realizing that was the big difference. I didn't wait. I went for it. Even though on paper it looked like the worst time ever to make that kind of decision, I went for it anyway. I was tired of doing things I didn't want to do. I wanted to fill my life with beauty and enjoyment and wonderful people. And that's exactly what's happened over the last couple of years. I now live in a gorgeous place that I enjoy exploring every day. I don't work, quote unquote, anymore. It all feels like fun. I don't even put in that much time on my business anymore, and yet I'm impacting more people, helping more people, reaching more people. And it's all because I stopped waiting and I went for it. So, uh, I would love to hear what you think. If you want to click reply to this email and let me know, that'd be great, and I'll respond with a personal video. So I hope to see you too soon. Bye for now.
