Are You A Diamond, Or A Diamond Hunter?
“Your journey, the process that it takes to get you to be the diamond that you really want… does not have your time agenda attached to it. It’s all going to depend on your ability to take strategic and continual action, and be okay doing things that may not work.”
- Shelagh Cummins
Do you follow dozens of superstar CEOs and influencer-entrepreneurs on Instagram or LinkedIn? Do you sign up for their programs, tune into their Lives, and join their mailing lists, hungry for the information that they share?
A diamond hunter is forever seeking that optimal, beautiful end product — the result that leaves them shining like all of the diamonds that they follow.
I want you to give up on diamond hunting… and instead give yourself the opportunity to really become the diamond you want to be!
Diamond hunters are all about information-seeking — gathering new techniques and strategies as if simply having access to that information will help them scale and optimize.
But simply spending hundreds or thousands of dollars to access information isn’t enough.
In order to truly benefit from all of those tips and tricks, you must go through the diamond formation process… known in coaching circles as the “messy middle.” This is the period during which many entrepreneurs get frustrated and just give up — but diamonds can’t form without time and energy!
In this episode of the Road to Seven podcast, you’ll discover:
The messy-middle leap of faith you MUST undertake in order to bring your shiniest, most ambitious diamond goals to reality
How to check in and ensure that you’re still working in alignment with your values and purpose — and figure out what you need to do differently
