What has distracted you from your dream and your calling?

There is always something RIGHT THERE, right before we actually step into that special zone of genius and joy that seems SO RIGHT but it inevitably throws us ten steps backwards because it’s not right for us. It’s a tricky little bugger too, it usually comes laced with what seems like an accelerated timeline and often what appears to be a lot of money or prestige.

If it’s so dang tricky… how in the heck are you going to know it’s happening?

NOTHING is something that cannot wait a moment for you to assess the opportunity. Now I know for people who are the type that struggle with taking action and dwell in procrastination, this seems very counterproductive but this is not aimless pausing you are going to have a process in place to make sure this is a productive pause.

  1. Define how long you get to ponder this, typically a day is sufficient enough if you take immediate action on steps 2 & 3.
  2. Write down all of the facts of the opportunity and separate anyone else’s opinion that may be entangled in the facts. Someone else wanting you to do this is not a good enough reason to take the leap.
  3. Revisit your goals and purpose, does this line up with them? It may not exactly, but it may offer you a new goal you didn’t know you wanted and THAT’s OK as long as it does not pull you away from your values and purpose.
  4. Define what success in this new opportunity looks like. Journal out what your dream life might include when you…
  5. TAKE THE LEAP. You can ALWAYS pivot if it proves not to be the right choice, more often than not, taking the leap into a new unexpected opportunity is the key that unlocks your next level you didn’t even know was available!

3 Books That Can Help You Build Your Dream NOW

written by Chelsea Swain

The Big Leap

My first session with a coach ever… I was teetering on the edge of SEVERE burnout. But I was also in the process of launching some of the most amazing client projects and products of my own career. I was crossing a threshold I had never and I was SABOTAGING hard. Before the end of our call she said this book was to be required reading for me. Not only did it change my life by showing me how to move past the upper limits I was facing but it also opened the door for me because the zone of genius of the man who wrote it shares the same zone of genius as me. Wondering what all of this talk about upper limits and zone of genius even means? READ THIS BOOK. Change your life. We are doing a deep study on this book in the Burn Bright Society in July 2021!

Atomic Habits

If you have been following my journey of developing the Brimworthy brand for long you know that I have been wading in the waters of learning about quantum physics, time, God, and what exactly is the nature and purpose this reality we (or dimension ha!) we occupy and how to experience and share the beauty of it. I didn’t want to read this book. It felt too… what’s the word… limiting. Turns out, I WAS WRONG. Also, make a habit of being cool with being wrong and expanding your opinions with new info, life will get better. This book is a very clear way to understand what I even mean by choosing to live a Brimworthy life. It is a guidebook to understand what your vessel is meant to be and what input you need to put in to overflow the things that fulfill that purpose! We are currently studying this book as a group in the Burn Bright Society right now and I can’t wait to help everyone implement these things!

A Wrinkle In Time

I’m not kidding. I think this should be required reading for every person. It both nurtures the “inner child” and breaks the time space barrier in a way that has nothing to do with “magic” but everything to do with potential and faith. This book changed my life when I read it in the 4th grade and I’ve been reading it ever sense. Now I do up my game with books like Quantum Christianity by Aaron Davis now but please do yourself a favor and allow your brain to explore the reaches it wants to in a fun a way with the original A Wrinkle in Time! Watching the movie does not count, it is not the same, love you enough to be blunt and tell you to site down with this hard copy in hand!

And yes, you have time to read. Trade 10 minutes of IG scrolling for 10 minutes of reading. Xoxo.

How to Take Back Your Time

by Chelsea Swain
written by Chelsea Swain

As parents, it’s so easy to feel overwhelmed and like there is never enough time. We’re being pulled in a thousand different directions and barely have a moment to ourselves. 

Wanna take back your time with me? The answer is going to sound too easy, but I promise it’ll work. 

Stop. Breathe. Observe what’s going on around you right now. And feel not only the emotions of the present but the tangible truths. What does it smell like? What colors do you see around you and what is the lighting like, warm or cool? What sounds do you hear? Describe the scene you are currently living.

Being present and mindful is the key to a joyful life. Turn off the part of your brain that is planning the next hour, day, week, or month. Don’t let yourself dwell on the past. 

You can choose to experience what is going on right now – instead of thinking backwards or forwards (aka rumination & worry). 

The key to taking control of your time (and making MORE time) is to be exactly where you are without worrying about the next thing. 

A tangible way to do this is to take a picture, both a mental and a physical one. All of these moments we’re capturing, really be present in them as you take the picture. I will never forget this day on the Oregon coast with my kids whether I see this photo or not because I chose to experience it and to document it.

Wanna learn more? I’d LOVE to have you join the conversation in Burn Bright Society – you can join right here!

You are a disco ball.

by Chelsea Swain
written by Chelsea Swain

BREAKING NEWS: you can be more than one thing. Life is BOTH/AND and not the EITHER/OR we have been taught to believe. All of you visionary multi-passionate people, this is your cue to take a sigh of relief!

Picture the many little mirrors on a disco ball. Each one catching a tiny reflection of its surroundings and holding its reflective properties.

Now imagine 6 people looking at the disco ball from different sides, they are all looking at a completely different view of THE SAME disco ball.

You are the disco ball. You have a gift and purpose tied inextricably to your soul by God and limitless potential of how you realize them in the form of your dreams and passions! The best part is that as you step into them and start to spin, you reflect all of that goodness and light onto everyone around you and the dream becomes part of other’s both/and experience.

The biggest lie you’ll ever hear (besides that time flies when you’re having fun but let’s save that for another day) is that you HAVE to pick just ONE thing to do and that one thing defines you.  

My purpose is to inspire and connect people to something bigger than themselves. I literally can’t help it and I hope you’re inspired to join me.

Peace, love, & Brimworthy Magic,

Chelsea

Brimworthy, Defined.

by Chelsea Swain
written by Chelsea Swain

To build a Brimworthy life & business means to fill up your life with the unique to you meaningful things that expand your capacity for joy and abundance, so instead of pouring out your goodness all day, you can overflow it into the world!

What’s amazing is you don’t have to flounder trying to figure this out. 

We believe as parents and believers that we have a special role in the building of God’s kingdom here and being burnt out does not share the light of God like we were intended to do.

The simple truth is that when you align with God and your purpose and surrender the fears your ego puts in place (we hear at Brimworthy believe this is the enemy’s favorite tool) to align your head, heart, and gut instead you break the illusion of the limited experience of the world. 

There are many many ways to do this, one tool we use at Brimworthy HQ is the Enneagram but we literally have a toolkit of 100’s of things and are constantly learning and bringing in more experts to help you find the right tool for you.

Have you ever seen those families who have sold all of their things, quit their day jobs, and started travelling the world full-time with their kids? That is one version of living Brimworthy! But that is THEIR version of it, the key to actually living fully alive is finding what things make YOU light up and willing to selling everything you own to do. What things make you feel like you could burst with joy whether you are being paid to do them are not?

You can choose these things and even use them to make less than exciting things more enjoyable. It will not happen all at once but overtime as you figure out what things are Brimworthy (worthy of filling up your life with) to you, it will get easier to choose them and you will notice that choosing them not only feels good but literally expands your capacity to choose more of them!

You break the illusion of time and begin living the width of your life when you stop trying to simply survive the length.

Helping people find and choose what’s Brimworthy to them is our mission and we love hearing everyones unique take findings on their own Brimworthy journey.

So, what’s Brimworthy to you?
