Have you ever told yourself, 'I'll start tomorrow,' only to find that tomorrow turns into next week, next month, or even next year? What if the perfect time to start is hiding in plain sight?"
In today's fast-paced world, we all have goals and dreams we're chasing, whether it's improving our health, seeking personal development, or finding our purpose.

0:00:29 - (Kevin Lowe): Any of these different activities, these personal development activities, do you a, start today, b say, I'll start tomorrow, or C, say, you know what? I'm just going to wait till January 1. Sounds like a great New Year's resolution for me, even though that's seven months away. Depending upon how you answer that question, depends on how much you need to hear today's episode, because today we are talking about that opportunity to do what you want to do right now.

0:01:55 - (Kevin Lowe): And here on this podcast, I want to share those insights with you. Because, friend, if you are still searching for your purpose, still trying to understand why, or still left searching for that next right path to take, we'll consider this to be your stepping stone to get you from where you are to where you want to be. Do you know what makes today's topic even easier? This idea of embarking on our own personal and development journey. With the introduction of spring.

::
0:04:21 - (Kevin Lowe): That's what we're talking about today. We're using this metaphor of spring as it relates to your life. So, my friend, I want you to remember this. The most important thing that you can get out of today's episode, I'm already saying it, is that every morning when the sun rises, you have the opportunity at a whole new beginning, a whole new day. Whether it's spring or fall, winter, summer, it honestly really doesn't matter.
::
0:05:24 - (Kevin Lowe): But this is a season representing change. And so if you're ready to embrace it, then that's what you got to do. Because spring, it teaches us that change, it's a catalyst for growth. If you're willing to embark upon it, if you're willing to put in the hard work, if you're willing to do the things to get you to where you want to go, this is the perfect opportunity to start doing it. You could basically say, I want you to try your best of switching up your mindset to no longer fear the idea of change, but welcome it with excitement.
::
0:06:45 - (Kevin Lowe): So the question becomes, how can we truly harness the power that spring brings to give us this growth that you're talking about? Well, as usual, I have a couple of ideas for you to think about. As with most things in the realm of us moving forward, I believe that we have to take the opportunity to reflect on not even the past, but on right now. So many times we're so focused on just the normal, everyday monotony of life that in this season, maybe it's time for you to slow down and for you to really take a good look at life right now.
::
0:08:12 - (Kevin Lowe): And then, well, then we can know what to do. Once you identify your areas of growth that you want to change, well, it's now the opportunity to sit down and map it out, to figure out what you need to start doing today to make that happen tomorrow. Everything. The biggest goals that any of us have in our lives, even those far off dreams that we probably think will never happen. Well, what's life without chasing our dreams?
::
0:09:22 - (Kevin Lowe): And my last little tip for helping you to understand how this can work, for getting this to work for you in this season is I want you to understand that it's a journey we're all on a journey in life. And depending on what it is that you're wanting to make a change in, in your life, what new growth you're wanting to let grow and develop, well, it's probably going to take a while. And so I want you to realize that going into it, it is a journey and you're probably going to go through seasons of the ups and downs.
::
0:10:30 - (Kevin Lowe): So then let's map out how do we change them, what do we want on the other side of that change? And then, of course, we start to take action because this is the season of spring, of rebirth, of you moving forward. So my hope is that you take these little tips that I've given you and you actually start to implement them. The other symbolism of spring that I want to be sure that I mentioned today is the idea that it's a cycle that the world that we live in, the seasons that we go through, it's a continual cycle.
::
0:11:38 - (Kevin Lowe): Only you know that. But I want you to remember that change. It's something you have to do if you ever want to grow, if you want to love this life and to make the most out of it, you have to be willing to make a change every once in a while. It's just part of life. And of course, my friend, as always, I want this podcast to not only just inspire you, not just empower you, but to hopefully just have you maybe looking at life a little bit differently.
::
0:12:44 - (Kevin Lowe): You do too. Remember, my friend, no matter how long the winter, the season of spring, it's sure to follow. So get out there and blossom to thrive in life, and to never, ever give up on your hopes and your dreams for the future. This is Kevin Lowe. This is grit, grace and inspiration, the podcast that I hope just made a little impact in your day. If nothing else, I hope I brought a smile to your face, made you start to think about things in a little bit more positive light.
