    “You vote with your time” is one of Kristen’s favorite sayings.

    And she’s right.

    The fastest way to learn about someone is to understand what they DO, not what they SAY…

    Which is a bizarre paradox… given so much of our life is what we speak about.

    When we speak about what we don’t want, we tend to get it (have you noticed?)

    When we speak about what we do want, we tend to get that instead.

    So, what’s the connection?

    Simple. What you say, and what you do create your day, your week, your month and your year.

    Most people speak one way and act another.

    And they wonder why they are stuck.

    Today, I want you to think about where you are saying one thing, and acting another.

    Are you saying you want to increase your health, and eating sugary, fatty foods?

    Are you saying for more love in your life, and treating others with disrespect or a lack of kindness?

    Are you saying you want to make more money, but spending the money you have irresponsibility?

    It’s time to start voting with our time AND our words.

    It’s time to get both our speaking and our actions synced up.

    Do that, and everything gets easier.

    In the end, it’s YOUR LIFE. You get to create it however you want.

    (You are 100% in charge, remember?)

    I’ve discovered that when I focus on getting my words and my actions lined up, everything seems to work better.

    And the same is true for you.

    Shoot me an email and let me know what you are going to start voting for with your time, and voting for with your words.
