What if you got COVID?

Think back to the last time you felt so OVERWHELMED!  How did you react?  Did you feel hopeless and that you had no control over the situation?  Or did you have a different response?  Well, I want to talk about one of my mastermind students…  Who recently dealt with one of the most overwhelming situations of her life.  But despite the overwhelm...she was able to turn it around into an OPPORTUNITY TO LEVEL UP!  For the sake of privacy, let's just call her Claire.  For starters, the COVID situation was not kind to her at all.  Her boyfriend recently got COVID.  And the entire situation drove her into a state of overwhelm.  The whole family had to isolate themselves after she herself got tested for COVID as well.  They weren't allowed to go outside and get groceries.  Which meant, Claire had to rely on others to get the groceries for her.  And being the kind of person who struggled to ask for help…  She absolutely hated the feeling of having to rely on others.  And to make matters worse...  Her ex boyfriend was tasked to pick up her children from school…  But he refused to pick them up.  Then, seeing how she didn’t fell like she had power over her situation…  She started to feel sorry for herself.  And she felt sorry for her kids because they wouldn't be receiving their Christmas gifts this year.  They didn't even have a Christmas tree put up.  Aside from that are the problems that seemed to stack on themselves.  They had no dishwasher or energy for cooking or cleaning.  The children had to miss out on their last week of school.  Their dog needed to go out even though they were quarantined.  And the whole family were all locked inside a two room apartment.  Naturally, anyone in this situation would feel like the world was just crumbling all around them.  And it was no surprise that Claire got so pissed off at the COVID situation...  That she projected all her frustrations onto her loving boyfriend.  But right after that, she knew that projecting onto him was not only unfair to him…  But she knew that she needed to make the decision to CHANGE how she REACTED to the situation.  So instead of seeing this as a hopeless situation…  She decided to turn it into an OPPORTUNITY TO LEVEL UP!  How did she do this?  First, she took action to heal her negative thoughts…  By using the "healing frameworks" that we teach inside the Addicted2Success Mastermind.  And once she had healed these negative thoughts…  She apologized to her current boyfriend for projecting her frustrations onto him…  And opened herself up about her reactions to the whole COVID situation.  She forgave and healed herself for losing control of the situation.  She asked her good friend to help her get the groceries…  Which for Claire, was not an easy thing to do.  Long story short, because she had done all of this…  When most people would've lived in fear and allow their emotions to take control of their actions…  Claire was able to take advantage of the overwhelming situation…  To HEAL and GROW as a person.  And because she had taken her power back over her overwhelming situation...  She is now able to put her focus back onto her visions…  Instead of allowing the COVID situation to push her off her purpose.  And words can't express just how proud I am of her for being able to do that.  Because every successful person, no matter what industry they're in, understands this one simple fact.  "It's not what happens to you, but how you react to it that matters" ~ Epictetus  And Claire understood this when it mattered the most.  Because the worst thing you can ever do in an overwhelming situation like this...  Is to allow your negative emotions to control you.  And it's amazing stories like Claire's that push me to keep mentoring and guiding entrepreneurs all over the world…  So that they can build a satisfying business/career and a life of fulfillment...  No matter what setbacks they face.  So just like Claire…  If you're ready to join me and all my students who are able to turn their overwhelming situations into OPPORTUNITIES TO LEVEL UP on the daily…  [Then hit this link and join us inside one of the most loving and supportive networks that we’ve created inside the Addicted2Success Mastermind.Â](  So with that being said…  I want to end this email with this IG story that I shared recently:   No matter what struggles you're going through right now…  In the end, the only thing we get to focus on is levelling up everyday.  Because that is how we truly take back control over our lives.  I'll chat with you tomorrow :) . . .
