Echo Moments: Forging a New Normal
Many of us are seeing who we are without the noise.
We have shifted. We have etched new paths for our success through creating space for grace, mindset shifts, and allowing our reckoning moments to lead our transformation to a new normal. We have embraced the process of what we are going through. My hope is our old mindsets have changed so much that we realize our lives are worth much more than our previous state. But are we slowing down enough to see the shifts we have made to recognize and celebrate the leaps we have taken?
Maybe today you are in a place of stagnancy. Please hear me that you are valuable. Things will settle and it might look different, but I encourage you to be patient and give yourself grace.
From my point of injury to the point of winning the Paralympic silver medal was 7 years. We must embrace the new normal process and the process that we are moving forward. There is light at the end of the tunnel. This is the hope we have.
I just returned from the National Speakers Association 2022 Influence Conference hosted by the Gaylord Opryland Resort & Convention Center in Nashville, TN, and I was flooded with the synergy of how powerful our echo moments can be that return to us during, within, and after we make major shifts to the new normal.
Echo Moments
If my life story can help another individual overcome what they are going through in life I would call them ripples. But much more now I measure the echoes that come back. Echo moments. These moments we have in our lives we might not pay attention to. We send something out and it continues to spread, and it will come back if we are listening, and we are then able to gauge if we are on the right path or need to course correct. As we see the shifts, we can also see the echo moments.
Forge a new normal. Stay the course. Make the jump yours!
