The time is now! – If you are someone who wants to absolutely make a difference in the lives of others through speaking and/or wants to accelerate your career, NOW is the time to get out there and start speaking to groups. There is no time like the present.
When I first started my seminar and coaching business, my coach told me to set a date for my first speaking event. I was totally blocked. I couldn’t move forward. I couldn’t set a date on my own. I am so grateful to my coach for nudging me, very strongly, to set a date which moved me out of my comfort zone.
By setting the date of your first speaking event, even before all the details of your speech are determined, you are setting a clear intention that you are going to do it. That intention will give you the courage to move you beyond your comfort zones. While it’s relatively “safe” to stay in the “planning” stages, once you take “action” by setting a date, you set the reality of it in motion!
Focusing on your fears and using the “Someday” scenario, will only keep your fear in place, if not increase it. If you’re ready to go for it, start planning your first speaking event or your next BIG event. By setting the date, you will reap huge rewards.
