wheel (going through the motions obliviously), you’re in a cycle of there’s nothing I can do. When you wake up to your reality - when you step out of your body and see your life - that’s when you say Wow this is the life I created. Right? We have created our life through all of the choices we’ve made along the way. I chose to marry my ex-husband. I chose to move to New Jersey. I chose to commute four hours each day. I chose to have a son… I am choosing every single day. When we are aware of our choices, we gain back our power.”
Ginny concluded, “It’s when we finally connect with our passion, when we finally realize we have other options, that we take the reigns of our life.”
“Take the reigns of our life”. That’s a powerful statement. We can, at any time, steer our lives in any way we want. At the moment we decide to take the reigns we are no longer in a holding pattern and blissfully oblivious; we discover the options available for personal and professional transformation. “That’s your choice. It is you who decides. Not me. Not anybody in your life.” Ginny continues to explain, “Yes, our choices are constrained by guardrails that say how you can do certain things. What I suggest, given the guardrails we have, we can make them very narrow so we have a narrow path or we can make them wider. We are the only ones that can do that - make them narrow or wide. What can you create inside those guardrails that can empower you?”
Ginny developed her proprietary system - C.A.R.E.S. The five strategies are connect, align, rise, envision, seek.
