Hello and welcome back to The unleashed Podcast. I'm your host, Kristina Sjolund. If you are a first time listener, I welcome you, if you are a returning listener, I appreciate you so much for coming back, and I hope you keep on coming back. So today, I was with my group of peeps, they are amazing, amazing business crushers. We meet every week. It's a mastermind group. And this was said, 'Just because you outperform everyone else in your circle doesn't mean that there isn't more that you can do'. I want you to think about that. There's always more that you can do now. There are people who are in my circle, I have actually had to change my circle a few times in my journey. Now I don't get rid of my friends, I just step into different circles. Because I want to be around people who are pushing me. I want to be around people who are driving me to do more. Join me tn today's episode as we explore how there are ways that you can always do more.

SHOW NOTES:
• I am incredibly blessed to be in the position that I'm in in my life. I am financially stable, I am financially secure, I don't worry too much. Even now, I feel like I need to hold back because I don't want somebody to feel bad. I don't want somebody to be offended by me saying that I'm in a great financial position. Am I proud of that? Hell yes, I am. And I should be. (5:33)
• I'm constantly in a working and growth mode in order to move forward with my life. And every once in a while, something comes and gets me, so I'm not perfect in all of this, but I know that I have to have these conversations with myself on a regular basis to put myself in check. I know I've talked before about doing a self-audit... I do that. I do that sometimes. I'm like, 'Okay, well, what are you doing? Are you holding yourself back because of what other people are thinking? Or what other people are maybe doing, or not doing? Don't do that. Don't allow them to get in your way, because it really comes down to you. Especially if you are building a business of your own. (9:23)
• I want my own freedom, but again, I don't fault someone else who does do that. But those people are going to say, 'Well, it's Friday night. Yeah, it's Friday night and I'm working, I'm working. There's people who go camping over the weekend, I'm working over the weekend. And I'm good with that. I'll take phone calls at 7 o'clock in the morning or 9 o'clock at night, whatever it is. And they're like, 'Oh, you're always working... Yeah, I am. Because I'm building an empire. My empire. My building hours are not eight to five. But I've got a lot of free time in between where I can fill that, I can do things. If I don't feel like taking a call at a particular time, then I don't take a call at a particular time, I'm open. I'm free.(11:54)
• Oh, I've got a friend. I've got a friend who says she builds full-time families. How would that be? That's what I want. I want a full-time family, I don't want to be putting in the commute time. I'm not going to let somebody else's words hold me back. And, If I outperform people in my circle, I'm going to step into another circle where there's people who are out performing me, that are going to make me kick it up a notch so that I can perform better. (14:17)
• When I started making my list, I'm like, Damn. Okay, okay, I killed it, I killed it. But you know what, I can do more. I've got to step it up. So I want you to keep that in mind because I know that if it comes up, especially if it comes up more than once in a week, there's a reason for that. If it comes up more than a week, you're going to hear me talking about it with you, because if it's that often out there, somebody else is feeling that as well... It's very common. (15:07)
