A few of my favorite things

Hey everyone, welcome back to The Next Brave Step Podcast. I’m your host, Chelsy Weisz, and today we are diving deep into the fourth step of my signature coaching method, the Next Brave Step Blueprint. This is not just a collection of ideas or theories; it’s a proven system that has guided hundreds of individuals around the world through transformational journeys. Whether you’re feeling stuck in your job, struggling with finances, yearning for better health, or seeking a more fulfilling relationship, this blueprint is designed to help you take that next brave step toward a life you love.

What is the Next Brave Step Blueprint?

The Next Brave Step Blueprint is a comprehensive, actionable plan that helps you navigate significant changes in your life. It’s broken down into six key stages:

  1. The Reckoning: Recognizing the need for change and confronting the reality of your current situation.
  2. Evaluation: Assessing where you are, what’s working, and what’s not working.
  3. Strategy: Developing a clear and actionable plan to achieve your goals.
  4. Massive Action: Implementing your plan with bold, decisive actions.
  5. Course Correct: Adjusting your strategy as needed to stay on track.
  6. Receive and Repeat: Embracing your achievements and preparing for continued growth.

Today, we’re focusing on the fourth stage—taking massive action.

The Power of Massive Action

Massive action is where we turn our strategy into reality. It’s about consistent forward motion, bold decisions, and decisive steps that drive you toward your goals. This stage is critical for achieving meaningful progress and creating lasting change.

To support you through this stage, I’ve created a workbook called the Next Brave Step Blueprint, which you can download from the show notes below. It includes guidance, exercises, and tools to keep you motivated and on track.

Setting the Foundation: Small Steps for Big Change

Taking massive action involves both big, bold actions and small, deliberate steps that accumulate over time. Here are some small yet powerful steps to get you started:

  • Set Your Alarm for 4:30 AM: Start your day early to gain extra hours for productivity.
  • Lay Out Your Workout Clothes the Night Before: Make it easier to get to the gym by removing barriers.

The key is to make deliberate choices and follow through consistently. Motivation alone isn’t enough because it ebbs and flows. Instead, build habits that support your goals.

Building Sustainable Motivation

Motivation is like an emotion—it comes and goes. To foster a lasting sense of motivation, we need strategies that go beyond waiting for inspiration to strike.

Move Your Body

Physical activity triggers the release of endorphins, enhancing mood, reducing stress, and creating a natural boost of motivation. Regular exercise increases energy levels and mental clarity, making it easier to tackle tasks and stay motivated.

Ways to Incorporate Movement:

  • Hit the Gym: Engage in high-intensity workouts like running, cycling, or weight training.
  • Dance Sessions: Join a Zumba class or dance to your favorite music at home.
  • Yoga: Enhance flexibility, strength, and mental focus with yoga. Check out Yoga with Adriene on YouTube for great at-home practices.

The key is to find an activity you enjoy, making it easier to stick with it.

Lock in with Your Goals

Regularly reviewing your goals keeps them at the forefront of your mind, maintaining focus and drive. Use visual reminders, colorful pens, and sticky notes to make your goals visible and appealing.

Daily Goal Review:

  • Morning: Start your day by reviewing your goals to set a positive tone.
  • Evening: Reflect on your progress to stay accountable and motivated.

The 3-6-9 Method

The 3-6-9 method helps you clearly define your goals and focus your efforts, turning them into positive present-tense affirmations.

How to Do the 3-6-9 Method:

  • Morning: Write down your goals or affirmations three times.
  • Afternoon: Write them down six times.
  • Evening: Write them down nine times.

This repetition locks your goals into your subconscious, boosting motivation and manifestation.

Practice Gratitude

Gratitude shifts your focus from what’s lacking to what’s abundant, fostering a positive and motivated mindset. Writing down things you’re grateful for enhances mood and well-being, creating fertile ground for motivation.

Daily Gratitude Practice:

  • Morning: Write down ten things you’re grateful for and why. Feel the gratitude in your body.

I often encourage those around me to share their gratitude lists, fostering a positive environment. Gratitude can be for anything, big or small—fresh sheets, a favorite candy, family, or a new opportunity.

Three-Page Journaling

Set aside a specific time each day to write freely for three pages. This practice helps clear mental clutter, leading to breakthroughs and new ideas.

Journaling Tips:

  • Don’t Self-Edit: Write in a stream-of-consciousness style to let your thoughts flow.
  • Reflect on Your Day: Include to-do lists, feelings, hopes, and dreams.

Consistent journaling provides an opportunity to reflect on your progress and stay aligned with your goals, fostering ongoing motivation.

Creating a Vision Board

A vision board provides a tangible visual representation of your goals and dreams, making them feel more real and achievable. We’re halfway through 2024—it’s a great time to dust off your vision board and update it.

How to Create an Effective Vision Board:

  1. Gather Supplies: Find magazines, scissors, glue, and a poster board.
  2. Choose Images and Words: Select pictures and phrases that represent your goals and dreams.
  3. Arrange and Glue: Arrange them on the board in a way that inspires you and glue them down.
  4. Place It Somewhere Visible: Keep your vision board where you’ll see it daily.

Reviewing your vision board regularly keeps your goals top of mind and reinforces your commitment.

Accountability and Support

Accountability partners and support networks are crucial for maintaining momentum. Sharing your goals and progress with others creates a sense of responsibility and encouragement.

Finding Accountability Partners:

  • Join a Group: Find a community or group with similar goals.
  • Partner Up: Pair with a friend or colleague for mutual accountability.
  • Hire a Coach: Consider working with a coach for professional guidance and support.

Celebrating Small Wins

Acknowledging and celebrating small victories along the way boosts motivation and reinforces positive behavior. Each step forward, no matter how small, brings you closer to your ultimate goal.

Ways to Celebrate:

  • Treat Yourself: Reward yourself with something enjoyable.
  • Share Your Success: Tell a friend or post about your progress on social media.
  • Reflect and Appreciate: Take a moment to appreciate your efforts and achievements.

Embracing the Journey

Taking massive action is about more than just achieving goals—it’s about embracing the journey of growth and transformation. Each step, whether big or small, is part of your unique path.

Stay Flexible: Be willing to adjust your plan as needed. Life is dynamic, and your approach should be too.

Be Patient: Progress takes time. Celebrate the journey and the lessons learned along the way.

Stay Committed: Keep your goals in sight and stay committed, even when motivation wanes.

Conclusion

The Next Brave Step Blueprint is your guide to transformational change, and taking massive action is a crucial stage in this journey. By fostering sustainable motivation, incorporating movement, practicing gratitude, journaling, creating vision boards, and seeking accountability, you can turn your dreams into reality.

Remember, each brave step you take brings you closer to the life you’ve always dreamed of. Stay focused, stay committed, and embrace the journey. You have the power to create the change you desire.
