Closing the 18-Inch Gap Podcast-EP058: The 3 I's to Unlock Dreams NOW!

Today I want to bring you three phases, if you will, that you will go through to reach your dreams. But I need to warn you that not all three will get you there, only the last one will do that.

Quote of the week:

"When you reach an obstacle, turn it into an opportunity. You have the choice. You can overcome and be a winner, or you can allow it to overcome you and be a loser. The choice is yours and yours alone. Refuse to throw in the towel. Go that extra mile that failures refuse to travel. It is far better to be exhausted from success than to be rested from failure." — Mary Kay Ash.

Phase 1: Intrigued (Curiosity and Initial Awareness)

This phase begins with a spark—something inspires or excites you. You start daydreaming about what it would be like to pursue this dream. There is often a mix of excitement and hesitation. You begin gathering information casually. Fear and doubt often surface at this stage. More on this phase in the podcast.

Phase 2: Interested (Exploration and Small Actions)

At this stage, you move beyond curiosity and start actively researching and engaging. You begin setting small goals. Your dream starts to feel more attainable. You look for guidance—mentors, coaches, or courses that can help them gain clarity and direction. Investing time and energy into this dream feels exciting. More on this phase in the podcast.

Phase 3: Invested (Commitment and Action-Taking)

This is where you are all in. You make real commitents. Challenges are no longer deterrents. You start seeing tangible results. Your identity fully aligns with your dream. More on this phase in the podcast.
