Thanks for tuning in to the Real Women Chronicles podcast. I am your international certified life coach, T. Audra Taylor. The sole purpose of this podcast is to get you from where you are now to where you want to be.
Yes, it's time to break chains and to get unstuck. Thanks again for joining in. Let's begin. Hello.
Thank you guys for joining me yet again another week. I am coach T your certified life and relationship coach. Listen, as I was going through the week, the long week that I've had, this three words kept coming to my spirit. And I knew that God wanted me to talk about this topic this week for this week's podcast.
And he kept whispering to my spirit, why not now? Why not now? So as I'm hearing this topic, I pick up my pencil and I say, God, lead me to the words that you want me to say to your people. I'm not sure who it is out here.
Well, out there that needs to hear this message, but it's somebody and God has really chosen you to listen to this podcast on this particular day because I feel the burning in my soul that it needs to be said. So I've entitled again this week's podcast, why not now? And I'm not going to hold you long. Listen, how many times have we put off our happiness and tell some prehistoric time?
What I mean by that is how many times have you, yes, you listening to this podcast right now, as I speak, how many times have you said I'll be happy when or I'll be happy if I'll be happy when I get that house or I'll be happy when I get this job or when my kids act right or when my man treats me right, I'll be happy if I become successful. How many times have you put off your happiness until some prehistoric time? How many times do you procrastinate on that goal because you don't have this or that? Here it is.
God is giving you a purpose. He's giving you a task to accomplish and you keep on procrastinating saying, I don't have this and I don't have that. So I can't do it right now. How many times?
How many times do you say I'll do this when this happens? Or when that happens or if I have this or that? How many times do you wait? Instead of really taking advantage of the here and the now.
I challenge each and every one of you guys that are listening to this podcast right now to challenge those excuses to delay. It's time to bring them to the forefront, bring them to fruition, challenge that excuse that you keep on giving yourself, that delays your happiness. That excuse that you continuously give yourself, that delays you from moving on that goal and that purpose that God has placed upon your life. Are you delaying because of fear?
Are you delaying because of your dependency on someone else to pull you through? Is the enemy really sitting here and scaring you and to staying stagnant while God is trying to pull you forward? These are the things that you want to challenge whenever you have these thoughts of procrastination whenever you have these thoughts of I'll be this when this happens, especially happiness, y'all. Happiness should not be something that's set aside for later date.
Happiness should not be a goal that you set for yourself only when you get another relationship or only when you make a certain amount of money. Whenever we look to things to make us happy and to situations we lose, we lose. Whenever we look to a mate to make us happy, I won't be happy until I get that husband. Some of you say that and it's reality and whenever we look towards a mate, we put too much weight on them because we say to ourselves that this person is going to come into my life and they're going to complete me and they're going to make me happy and then we depend so deeply on this person to do every single thing to make us happy and when they fall short, we're frustrated.
We give up. We get angry because we're leaning on the wrong source. And whenever we're leaning on the wrong source, we are going to be disappointed. And we're leaning so much weight on that person that a lot of times it's too much for them to bear.
Challenge those thoughts that tell you not to act on that goal and that purpose that God has set upon your life. Challenge them. Sometimes you think that you're planning and you're being careful and you're just trying to do things in a meticulous way and make sure that you cross all your teeth and dive all your eyes and sometimes you're listening to the enemy himself who is trying to snatch you out of your purpose. He's trying to snatch you out of that place that God is trying to take you to with the repetitive thoughts that come to mind, the thoughts that involve fear are not of God.
And these are the thoughts that need to be challenged because you know that's not God speaking. That's a devil trying to hold you back. Why not now? Why not take this opportunity which is the only opportunity you have to choose to be happy?
Take the opportunity which is the only opportunity that we are sure to have is this moment right now and start planning that goal. Start working towards that goal. Listen, slow motion is better than no motion. Take turtle steps but start moving.
A lot of our completeness we look for in other people instead of our purpose and our purpose is really where true joy is found and you be surprised how many people I've taught this to over the years and I take no credit. It's all glory to God because I taught this because I understood how fulfilling it is to know what it is that you're here to do and to actually operate it in. It's so fulfilling. It's more fulfilling than a mate or anybody and when you're operating in that space, the enemy knows you're forced to be reckoned with because whatever that space that is, it's always going to help someone else.
Listen, you are your biggest competition. You absolutely are. You are your biggest hurdle. The only person standing in the way of you doing what you need to do right now, right here, right now is you and self-defeating thoughts that come from the enemy.
Your thoughts will either keep you chained or they will set you free. The time is now. Listen, I want to thank you guys for listening to my nine minutes bill on this week's podcast. I pray that it has helped somebody out there.
I really do and I feel in my spirit that it has. Listen, as always, let's close out and pray your Father God. I just thank you for allowing us to come together. Thank you for giving me the word for this week and just filling my soul with the most motivations that give to your listeners, Father God.
I pray that all those out there that are struggling and they're stuck and they're being stagnant right now. I pray to God that you lose them in the name of Jesus, each and every one of us, including myself, we fight with the spirit of procrastination because we understand that there's a bigger, bigger purpose involved in and the goals that you have for us, Father God. I pray that you break those chains and those spirits of procrastination. Help us to be one right now within, with ourselves, with our goals, with our happiness, with our self-love.
Help us to be one with that, with this particular time that we are guaranteed, which is only right here and right now. In the name of Jesus Christ, I pray. Amen. Listen, if you guys are in need of coaching, you can always email me at TNTgroveProject at gmail.com.
