10: Expand Your Territory! How to Think Big in Life

In this episode of the Soul Shift Sessions podcast, hosts Coach Sapphire Star and Coach Kyle McLoud discuss what it means to "think big" in life.They begin by defining "thinking big" as having no limits and thinking beyond current perceptions. Coach Kyle shares a personal anecdote about how his idea of "big" evolved from his college choices to working in Bermuda, where he saw how students there had the whole world as their option for university. This illustrates that "thinking big" can simply mean expanding your territory beyond your current circumstances or pursuing what sets you on fire, even if it's settling down and enjoying family. They challenge the societal notion, especially perpetuated by social media, that a family-focused life is meaningless.The discussion then shifts to the importance of action and learning from setbacks. Coach Kyle shares his experience from a challenging bike ride, highlighting how his mindset influenced the outcome and the importance of hydration. Coach Sapphire adds that she approaches experiences with a "learn attitude," turning perceived losses into wins because she gains knowledge.They emphasize that "thinking big" is a cultivated process, like planting a seed that needs nurturing and weeding out negative thoughts. A key question to ask is, "What do you want?" They urge listeners to focus on this desire without judgment, imagining how it will feel and consistently moving towards it.The hosts also discuss the influence of adversity in fueling bigger picture thinking and the danger of living in scarcity by constantly focusing on external factors rather than personal beliefs and goals. They reiterate the importance of continually asking "What do I want?" as individuals are always evolving, and how sometimes societal influences can cloud one's true desires.Finally, they highlight that playing big is bigger than oneself, influencing lineage, community, and even the world. Coach Sapphire shares how her desire for freedom of time and finances has created a legacy for her daughter and grandchild, showing them they are not bound by their surroundings and can pursue their dreams.
