Jalal al-Din Muhammad Rumi was a poet who lived in the 13th Century. In my opinion, one of the more insightful things he said was “what you seek is seeking you” suggesting that the thing you are looking for is actively looking for you as well. Another well-known quote from Rumi is “The wound is the place where light enters you” and he is speaking to the transformative power of pain and vulnerability.
My personal favorite quote from Rumi is “Yesterday I was clever and I wanted to change the world… Today I am wise and I want to change myself.” We only have a finite level of control on any other person including our children. We teach them the lessons and they apply them in their own way. Even Warren Buffett tells us to take very little credit for the success of our children and to take very little blame. I agree.
Real change starts from within. It’s not always about big leaps, it’s about staying disciplined to the promises you made to yourself and others. Doing what you said you’d do, even when it’s uncomfortable.
That’s how we build self-confidence. That confidence shines and becomes light others can follow. That’s when the ripple effect starts. That’s how we actually start to change the world. Keep showing up for YOU. That’s where the power is.
I’m privileged to help high-achievers turn their momentum into massive results. My clients are already in motion—they’re taking action and getting wins, but they’re hungry for more. They know that to make a greater impact, they need a clear plan and aren’t afraid to ask for help to get it. When you have a solid strategy and you play full out, the word “yes” becomes your new normal. You’re not just taking action, you’re dominating. Your results speak for themselves, and you’re tired of anything less than what you know you’re capable of. If you’re ready to create a winning plan and consistently hear “yes,” let’s talk.
