dear dope chick,
welcome + welcome back!
thank you for being here today, thank you for showing up!
i really appreciate it!
are you ready to take action today? are you up for the challenge?
what you’ll need:
for those who are new here or haven’t been here in quite a while —
dear dope chick™ is an action based podcast so that means that every episode you are challenged, encouraged, + inspired to take one step that aligns with living life on your own terms.
that means you are taking one step today — big, small, doesn’t matter as long as it’s a step — that aligns with the lifestyle that you most desire.
what if i don’t wanna take action?
choosing to not take action is still taking action. you’re still choosing to do nothing.
the beauty of living life on your own terms is that you get to decide. you don’t have to do anything you don’t want to do today.
however, i’m gonna encourage you to do something today that gets you going, that gets you moving in the forward direction, that puts you in the position of being the person you say you are or wanna be!
be ’bout it.
when you’re ready to change your life for yourself, to take charge of your life + live it to the fullest; to experience the richness, + to see your perceived failures become successes, go ‘head + take that step today!
you owe it to yourself to steer your life in the direction that you’ve always wanted to go + you can do that today.
let’s get to work!
so, grab a notebook or journal that is dedicated to this podcast so that you can participate in the activities and exercises discussed; to see how much you have grown over the course of your life.
have you heard our previous episodes?
not yet ready do the activities presented in this episode?
we have others that may interest you so if you aren’t familiar or haven’t heard our previous episodes, take a listen so that you can make an informed choice today.
you can listen to them here.
been thinkin’ ’bout it…
I don’t know why the phrase “seek + you will find” has been stuck in my head for these past few days, but I’m being obedient + speaking on it today.
what are you currently looking for?
all I ask is that you’re honest about what is it that your heart most desires?
take some time right now to think about it + write it down in your journal.
have you ever notice when you want something — a new car, some home improvements, a hairstyle, etc. — it seems like everyone + their mama has it?
you start to see it everywhere you go!
this has been true to me on so many occasions — searching for home improvements, driving a certain car, + even starting my loc journey.
take care of your mental
it’s truly incredible how the mind works; how it creates our realities for us.
this is why is it’s important for us to really watch what occupies our thoughts.
we have to protect + take care of our mental so that we are creating realities in which we want to actively participate + not one that we despise + hate.
just as you would set a security for your home to protect it, set a security system for your mind.
protect it at all costs.
though thoughts will come + thoughts will go, they didn’t originate with you + you don’t have to entertain them.
as freely as they found you, let them go + entertain only what makes sense for what you want to experience in your life.
wherever we place our focus is what we see, so whatever it is that you are looking for, you are going to find it.
you looking for an excuse today? you’re gonna find one.
you looking for a solution today? you’re gonna find one.
you looking for help? you’re gonna find it.
you may not know where it will be found, but it’s out there + because you’re looking for it, it is also looking for you.
to do this week:
could it be? idk, let’s see!
today’s action is to get curious + find what you’re looking for.
this may require you to shift your focus if you’re focusing on bullshit right now.
no one says they are looking for drama, but when you’re constantly watching the news, reading the latest gossip pages, ingesting media in the form of books + shows that promote chaos + drama, you’re going to find it not only in those avenues, but in your life as well.
cut the shit.
seek out what matters most in your life.
what matters to you right now?
you’ll say peace, but what is peaceful about your state of being today?
you’ll say joy + that’s cool, but you wanna look beyond this moment to find it when the joy you’re seeking is in the right now. it’s already here!
you’ll say you’re looking for freedom, yet you already have have it. you are free to decide how you want to live your life right now. don’t rob yourself of your freedom of choice.
Over the course of the week, search within.
over the course of the week, search within.
everything you’re currently on the hunt for can be found within you +/or in close proximity to you.
the solutions you are seeking are here.
maybe you don’t personally have the solution, but the person in close proximity to you does.
keep an open mind.
we have to realize that possibilities + opportunities come in so many different forms + fashions.
so it may not be exactly what we think we should see, but maybe it’s what we’re witnessing right now that will help us in the long run.
additionally, keep reciting those affirmations!
for 21 days straight we are reciting previously written affirmations.
continue reciting your affirmations this week.
check out the previous episode if you have not to get a jumpstart on this action step.
affirmation cards are here!
dear dope chick™ has affirmation + encouragement cards readily available on deardopechick.com. head on over + purchase a deck to have those cards on deck while you journey!
cop a deck of encouragement + affirmation cards
these pocket sized affirmation cards are perfect for every day + on-the-go encouragement! shop our decks here.
my final thoughts:
the answers you are seeking are here, right now.
help is here.
peace is here.
joy is here.
happiness is here.
likewise, drama is here.
excuses are here.
if you’re looking for solutions? you’re gonna find ’em!
i shared with the dope chick community this week on instagram “you always find a way, so what makes this time any different?“
whatever it is that you’re looking for, you are going to find it + you know that.
so the key is focusing only on what matters to you.
no one can make you care about a thing — I can tell you all about what’s going on in my life + you have a choice whether or not to be interested in entertaining it.
believe that what you’re seeking is seeking you. you will find it + it will find you. you have to believe wholeheartedly that it’s what you want + allow it to manifest itself as being.
that situation is already worked out for you.
walk, talk, + act as if a way has already made for you.
everything you’ve ever wanted + needed have been created for you to use at your disposal.
there’s nothing in this world that has not already been created for you to use, solutions included.
if in the beginning God created everything in this world, that means there is nothing left to be created.
you don’t have to create anything for yourself, you may have to reconfigure + put some things together that were never pieced together to get what you need out of them, but you don’t have to do the supernatural + create it.
it’s already there.
to find it, you must concrete your efforts + move as if it’s already yours… because it is.
