I love THE WAR OF ART. Such a great recommendation. It's been a joy following your journey, Sarra. Keep doing what you're doing. You're just lovely. (Also, if I could recommend a book to you, I think you'd like THE HIDDEN MESSAGES IN WATER. I won't explain it. It's a little gift of a book and it'll forever change your self-talk. 💞

Wow! This is the perfect sum of everything I’ve learned the last 2 years about self-love and improvement, identity shifting, following your calling, the power of will and magic, manifestation, alignment… building the life of your dreams step by step and day by day. I really struggled with depression since the pandemic and have appreciated your wisdom and support as a new author. Thank you as always. I’m in the indie author course and definitely recommend it! -Schuyler Windham

I think you are amazing Sarra! You really inspire me. ✨️

I needed this. I am definitely struggling with the Quantum Leap part. I was raised to be a perfectionist and "just do it". That's so not sustainable. Learning to take baby steps is hard, but worth it. Thank you for being a huge inspiration, Sarra 💜

Oh resistance in all its forms! I resist what I know works for me. Why?! I think it comes down to the self care/self love aspect. Thankfully my husband is great at reminding me what proven methods work to break me out of a negative spiral ( get outside, play a fun video game, etc) Being my own cheerleader is my biggest battle right now. And feeling worthy of that love and support. I have gotten better at creating a fulfilling morning routine to set my day up for success and it’s so interesting about you removing the treadmill from your routine to help you get out of bed!

You are perfect as you are. You do not have to explain anything to anyone about your life. You bring us advice and you share your life with us practically every day on KZread and an Instagram. You allow us to share your experiences your thoughts your expertise and we get to grow from it. We are thankful to you for sharing your insights as well as your expertise and your life with those of us who truly appreciate you. Don’t listen to negativity from others know that you are making a difference for the rest of us. Thank you so much and many blessings continued for you and your family.❤️❤️❤️

I'm still working on the negative self talk too. Those phrases are my go-to when I mess up or don't get as much done as I feel like I should.

Dear Sarra, I just love you. That is all ♥

This made me tear up for some reason! Thank you both!

Wow! This really hit home. Sometimes I get so lost in the criticism, failures, and resistance that I forget others struggle with the same issues. I never thought of exploring my resistance instead of being ashamed about it. Thank you for sharing this.

I always keep in mind that 10% of people are going to be unhappy no matter what. No matter what. So I expect some negativity and just ignore it. Maybe also ask whether the treadmill is what is right for you at this time. What body movement would feel good and safe? Gentle stretching? Dancing to music? Maybe find something more fun or rewarding. It may even be different every morning. Such a wonderful video. Thank you.

All of it! So much of what you share resonates! Be Your Own Cheerleader is something I'm learning to do...cheering my WOP and allowing grace for taking longer to reach my writing goals. Like you shared, no one knows what I've gone through to get here. While raising a family and overcoming a traumatic event, I can still confidentiality state, --Look how far I've come. I continue to believe in myself and the journey to moving from an aspiring author to a published one. Sarra, YOU are my Brené Brown of the Author World! Your vulnerability and truth connects, awakens, inspires and delivers... immensely. My whole life and approach around my series has shifted 100%. As a creative that loves writing, I can now have my cake and eat it! Thank you for all the amazing videos you put out there for us and the invaluable and insatiable content. Love you to pieces.❤️

I have had to learn that sometimes resistance to do things is a sign of how tired I am and I have learned to do the "important" things while I'm energetic as my craft/writing/down time isn't "necessary" yet and I'm always willing and excited to do them as they are me time. I also tell myself that in a few years when the kids are older I'll have all the time in the world, but right now they are my priority

I always say "She just gets it" and this video proves it. Thank you for this.

You are a beautiful woman. Please do not let people that do not have a life, to interrupt yours. I know that being on this platform people feel that they have the right to make comments, don't listen. You are blessed. You have helped and will continue to help, many people. I love and respect you. You are the first person that I started watching. I love to read and feel that I have a few books in me. (smile). Anyway, never put yourself down. If you get negative comments, delete them. Do not even respond it is their problem not yours. I will stop now, but keep being who you are. Have a blessed day!

Ha! Last week I started to get up a half hour earlier to begin my day on a positive note so this vlog is ironic timing. I've put on several pounds since going back to work after taking off the weight and being healthy for a while. I knew I was putting on the weight eating the wrong things and amounts and kept doing it while wondering what my problem was. It was almost like I was ruining my good habits on purpose which made no sense. I saw another video of your's where you mentioned self sabotage and it was the name I needed to label my behavior. Having the name made it click for me and I have thought about why ever sense. Why would someone do that to themselves? Last week, I decided to work on emotional me and see how it goes. I get up a half hour before I need to get ready for the day and I listen to positive affirmations while I stretch. Then I journal positive affirmations about how I want my day to go. I thought I would have to make myself get up. But I found I looked forward to this time almost immediately. Things that used to bother me aren't that big of a deal. I have more patience. (I work with teens and younger kids all day so this is a big deal. LOL) I go home feeling more energetic and I'm still in a good mood. Crappy things still slow me down, but I deal with them better and move on. I'm so with you on all of what you're saying.

The resistance is real! I just keep saying, "why am I like this?" I'm so frustrated. I like the "Think Big. Plan Small." idea. I think I can implement that. Love you Sarra!💜💜💜

Excited for you to experience the class and go on this journey! Good things ahead for you!

I can totally relate to resistance. Thank you for sharing and giving me idea of just acknowledging resistance and talking to it lol I think is going to help me see it differently and overcoming it

When you spoke about criticism I had to go find this quote it reminded me of. “Theodore Roosevelt’s powerful quote from his 1910 ‘Man in the Arena” speech: It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly;…who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly.’” Brené Brown, Rising Strong: The Reckoning. The Rumble. The Revolution.

That was really touching. I had those slow tears of strong, beautiful feelings. I have spent more than 20 years getting into my body to exercise and not be frightened to be a healthy attractive weight. I have had that resistance. I have had success but also had barriers that I could not cross. I want to be able to do certain things like do a pull-up or some ballet leaps but the by-product of those skills would push my body into being 'not just healthy' but 'sexually attractive' in a way that has a lot of resistance.

Be Your Own Cheerleader - it is so easy for me to help others and yet I struggle on being a cheerleader to myself. Also, the questioning resistance? That's life changing too and I think it'll be most helpful when I'm trying to write but keep on coming up to a block.

Love the tip about listening to your resistance. I never thought of it like this, only as something that needed to be controlled or managed. I think this will be super helpful. But the tip that resonated the most is the last one about being your own cheerleader. I’ve made so much more progress since I started to think like this and learn to listen to the voice that says “good job!” before the one that says “it could/should be better”.

For me, the one that resonated was about finding a middle way between a single atomic habit and the full, perfect routine. I definitely need something big enough to give me some impetus, otherwise it doesn't feel like I'm making a change at all and it's too easy to slide back into bad habits.

Being your own cheerleader! Yep need to get healthy! Thank you!

The best thing I learned in therapy was to treat my brain like a little toddler. The world is scary and hard! I need to be kind to myself.

Resistance. I’m always fighting with myself, maybe it’s time to listen.

All of this basically resonated with me! I know that I have something bigger that I'm supposed to be doing but that resistance is everywhere! I want to lose weight...resistance. I want to finally finish this book...resistance. I think the thing that I need to work on most, is the negative self-talk. Instead of being my loudest cheerleader, I've become my biggest critic! Without going into a ton of detail, I have lived in a broken, loveless, and sometime abusive marriage that has changed how I see myself. Even though logically I KNOW that I am capable and enough, there's a disconnect between my head and my heart. I know I need to be cheering myself on, but it is not easy my friend!

I absolutely love this I work so hard with my writing, several hours a day, and expect that quantum leap. At the same time I’m loving the journey. It’s a weird combination. Celebrating every success will help with this!

Yes to the Resistence point! Learned this a lot in CBT and had to train myself to listen to it instead of trying to fit my square peg into a round hole

I did not know how much I needed this video today! This was amazing. Everything you said spoke to my very heart and soul. This could have been me reflecting on my life in so many ways. The wow for me was Pay Attention to Resistance. I am aware of the things I resist but I tend to ignore it. This is something I am going to start implementing in my life now. Thank you again Sarra. 💖💖

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you, Sarra! I really needed these reminders. I've taken HB90 (fantastic) and I'm currently in P&T (fabulous), but sometimes I get so caught up in moving forward that I forget these basics. Being my own biggest cheerleader resonated with me the most because my internal critic is huge. I have many cheerleaders in my life and sometimes I want them to be quiet because I fear I won't live up to what they think I can do - that's my inner critic talking. I'll work on being my own cheerleader. Thank you again!

Funny thing, during my coaching session with Terry from the better faster academy I had a epiphany why I had so much resistance for my writing. Conscious I wanna finish a novel, publish it and become a bestselling author but unconscious my brain has been trained by all the negative comments I had growing up. You never finish anything, you don’t know what you want in live, I heard it on a daily level. So in the back of my mind there is no value for me to finish a novel, thus I never do. I need to start saying to myself ‘how can we make a great and compelling story from the beginning to the end’ instead of ‘I need to finish this.’ Resistance is a real and deep feeling for me

Resonate 100%! Learnt these things myself through a hard journey too. It’s all so true n so important ❤️❤️❤️

You are a strong, powerful woman; thank you for sharing your wisdom with us.

Thank you for making this video. I too am a survivor of a violent attack in my twenties. When you talked about resistance and meditating "I am safe" that really hit me. I put off things that I really want to do and have planned for and I always chalk it up to procrastinating, but maybe it's more. Maybe I feel unsafe for reasons I've yet to understand. I'm going to take your lead and start my own meditation on feeling safe. Thank you!!

I never thought to analyze why I resist some of my planning decisions. I always branded myself as lazy and let things go. Your insights into the importance of discovering the root of my resistance really got me thinking. Thank you for this and all your videos, particularly in relation to the struggles of being a writer.

I think the way you handled the resistance of the treadmill was what resonated with me the most. I am a huge procrastinator even though I know what I have to do to change, I still resist those changes.

Reading the comments, I’d say resistance is the source of all the other obstacles. For example, expecting to quantum leap is a subtle form of resistance. Excellent video and insights, thank you.

I agree, they are coming to you from their own lives, their own struggles and journey's and THAT is neither right nor wrong, but it is WRONG for someone to criticize you (or anyone) when they DON'T know the other person's story, their struggle. Because if the roles were reversed, THEY'D want compassion, not criticism. I've recently found out this year I began menopause and - joy of joys - in the midst of a midlife crisis, as well. Yep, women have them, too. I'm getting a double whammy. So, this video came at a perfect time. I've been feeling the clock bearing down on me, to begin with, but now it's out of realistic proportions and I'm having to do a lot of self-therapy and self-discovery.

Oh wow. Huge breakthrough with getting in the treadmill and realizing there needed to be a mindshift prior to getting on. I think I need to do this before exercising as well as I used to exercise to escape and numb myself and it’s like I’m avoiding exercising because I don’t want to slip back into that habit. Thanks for sharing. This has helped a lot.

Thank you, Sarra... 💜 So many amazing (and timely) takeaways... "Meet yourself right where you are and start making small changes to become the person that you want to be, but to understand that you are great as you are..." ~ Sarra Cannon (approx. 03:49)

Focusing on my resistance was the biggest tip that resonated with me. I have so much trauma to work through along with severe depression for over 2 years now and I think this one alone once I start working on it, will move mountains for me. And I hear you with the negative self talk. I'm working on doing that less.

Thanks for this. I resonated most with number 4. There are areas in my life that just stop me cold, no amount of planning gets me through them, I just can't get past the resistance. And maybe I just need to cut myself some slack and lean into the why, listen to what the resistance is trying to tell me and be kind to myself (number 5). I really do think understanding is the first step toward real movement.

Part of my writing routine is to journal about what I really want, what resistance am I feeling, and what I can do TODAY. It has been such a wonderful practice to notice these things and think through them before I work on my novel.

We need to set attainable goals that allow us to still enjoy life and keep our passion while we’re working towards our goals and you did a wonderful job of explaining that ❤️

What a great video! And something I needed to watch today. Several things resonated with me. Paying attention to your resistance. I don't ever do this. I just assume there's something wrong with me or I'm not good enough or worthy. From now on I'm going to pay more attention and explore why I'm resistant. The other thing that resonated was being your own cheerleader. I hate to admit it, and as much as I tell myself I don't care, what other people think of me (and their criticism) has influenced a lot of life choices for me. Believing in myself and my ability to achieve my dreams is something I will be actively working on. Thanks again for your great advice and words of wisdom, Sarra!

Love this!!! You are beautiful, and the message of this video is perfect! Thank you!

Thanks for the tips, I really need this ☺️

This was just what I needed today! I've been struggling with my morning routine as well! I'm going to sit down & come up with my 'ideal' morning routine & see what I can start to try! Thanks for the inspo!

It's always the right time to hear a supportive, encouraging message like this. Thank you, Sarra. ❤❤I needed it!

This is truth for me today. Thank you. I will be watching and learning over and over.

So much deep and personal sharing, thankyou so much for sharing your journey and insights! As I watched I took the opportunity to reflect on my own times of change and growth, resistance and overcoming. One of the best ways I level-up is by documenting the process in order to help an imaginary 'someone else' who is facing the same challenge ... usually my idea reader if it's for a social media post or a non-fiction book. I've had a break from writing to focus on my art, and would really like to ease back into it so I can start finishing some of those books and get them into the hands & hearts they were created for.

Getting a routine as there's still that wanting to "Quantim Leap" it as all of sudden, it has happened. There is also needing to work on the small steps to get to the larger picture. Just watching/listening to this video has been good too.

Brilliant, Sarra. Thank you so much for this.

Thanks so much for these words of support. It’s come just at the right time for me! X I think resistance has been my biggest hurdle. I tend to experience a great deal of self doubt in my ability to finish my novel and then I give myself so many reasons to give it up. I’ve decided that no matter how low I may feel that the worst thing I can do is not give myself a chance.

Wonderful food for thought! The "Pay attention to your resistance" one grabbed me - I can definitely explore with that one. Thanks so much!

Thank you so much for sharing your experiences. I truly relate to it and it helped me a lot! I needed to listen to it because I've been struggling with depression and I'm in the middle of a healing process from childhood abuse. It is so difficult to give the next step in the morning.

Thinking of you Josephine. You're not alone!

Thank you so much for talking about this. Needed it so much right now

Thank you so much for this video Sarra! The concept that resonated very strongly with me was to take small steps towards big dreams. Sometimes, goals can seem so overwhelming and impossible even when it’s something you really want (for me, my “Big Dream” is to finally write a novel after years and probably decades of procrastination). So, the idea of taking small steps is really helpful for me. Also, stopping the negative self-talk!!

I feel honored to have heard this perspective. That you shared this carefully and clearly given advise to ... Me. I am filled with tiers of pain yet so much positivity and hope for dreaming. I haven't dared to dream big, because I'd knew I'd give up within the first few days. I want to make it a dream to watch this video every day so that I know in my heart this is possible. I dare not dream bigger as of now, for it is to scary............. Heartfelt appreciation, virtual hugs. ~*Shana... ***Stay beautiful.

You are such a gift to this community! I resonated with the part about being your biggest cheerleader. It all goes back to pouring into yourself so you can be the best version of yourself for you and those around you. Keep doing what you’re doing and thank you for this video! ❤️❤️

Thank you! I totally agree about the Quantum Leap part. I feel like I've accomplished a lot recently, but haven't had the energy to maintain that these past few weeks but I hadn't really looked back at how hard I've been working. And just to add to the resistance tip, I prefer to journal about what I've been avoiding doing because that's just the way I process things. I've really improved how much I write each week by just writing down how I feel about writing that day before I start. I usually write a few sentences after I write as well. It helps to see a track record so I know what's normal for me and when I should just take a break for the day. Sometimes I don't want to write because I just "don't feel like it" and sometimes I'm actually too tired or stuck and I need to reevaluate.

Thank you Sarra!!

Lately I feel like you have weird talent to cover just the right topics that are really reasonating with my life currently meaning that I feel like they are answers to my questions to universe. Keep up the good work and thanks Sarra 💜

The end of this video was very moving for me. I resonated with the resistance in the getting up early. I often struggle between spending free time writing or exercising. I know I need the second one to feel better, but I feel as though I value sharpening my writing more. This, I think, prevents me from committing to that new morning routine of working out first. Because it takes away time I could spend writing. Then because of that resistance I do neither lol but small steps. I am going to work on this. Thank you!

I'm terrible for expecting myself to quantum leap. I followed the HB90 system on my own this quarter, and while I've made a tonne of progress, I didn't make a single dent in my personal goal, which revolved around health and household stuff. The resistance is out of control. So, I'll be joining you for HB90 this round, and maybe try a quantum shuffle 😆
