151: Why You're Still Afraid to Invest in Yourself | Lizzie Ens

But today, I really want to talk to you guys about what does it even look like to take action? What does it look like to trust a process? And I was at TJ Maxx the other day.

And if you notice this in my background, if you're watching on YouTube, I have this stack of books behind me.

And It's sort of created this little story for me because the minute I saw this stack of books, because I was looking for things that I want to have in my backdrop for the videos that I create and for podcast episodes on YouTube in video.

But I'm always very intentional with what that is and how does it speak to me, but also how is it going to help you guys? And so I saw this stack of books.

And one of the things that I have always been, since I wrote my first book, Amish Renegade, which is over here on the left side of me, I was actually reading through that book the other day because I'm writing my second book right now.

And I want you guys to pay attention to when this book gets published, because the second book that I'm writing is called The Gap Between.

And The Gap Between is about the in-between part that you may find yourself, that gap that you feel like you are in when you are Feel like you are outgrowing the community that you're in, outgrowing the friend group that you're in, outgrowing the business that you're in, outgrowing the relationship that you're in.

And you're in this gap of nuances and not sure what the next step is that you're going to take and what it's even going to look like.

And many people find themselves stuck in that gap in limbo.

We call it limbo.

for years and years and years because you're willing to settle you're willing to just stay there and settling it's this gap of confusion no direction and that's really what this book is about is how do you take that next step and how do you trust the process and how do you even know what that next step looks like that's what the gap between is about and so i found this stack of books over here on my right, and it says dream plan do.

And the minute that I saw it, I just got all emotional.

And it was tied up in a little twine, which like really spoke to my background from having twine on the farm.

I just felt something so strongly because one of the things that I have been teaching you guys is it's not enough to dream.

A dream is dead without action.

You can't have pie in the sky dreams and then not take action to work towards that.

And many people dream and they have dreams and they want to travel the world or they want to speak or they want to start their own business or they want to find the amazing relationship and partner that they so much desire to have.

But you're not willing to plan and take action on how you're actually going to get there.

So you find yourself 5, 6, 10, 20, 30 years down the road, and you're still doing the same thing that you were.

And that is limbo.
