And it's an experiment. I don't know. You may find me in a year being like, that experiment failed. Everyone just met me with more hate. But again, I'm going to keep repeating, I want to reach my goal. And so every time I'm just willing to try different strategies, I'm willing to try different techniques in order to get there.
So in a year, if I realize why that didn't do anything, I may try a different technique with the haters. And that will be my next step. But I won't give up because I'm so dedicated to the goal.

Yeah, exactly. And the thing that used to hold me back from reaching my confidence is my emotions. So there's no surprise there. One of the big things that is important is making sure that I'm so aligned with my mission and that I'm always reminded me of what my mission is, that I never allow my emotions to take lead.

Because often we may do things that make us feel good in the moment, but end up derailing us from our actual mission and goal. So instead of saying, my mission is to help people, that's so non-tangible. What does that actually mean? How do you show up every day knowing if you're working towards your mission or not? So I have these two parts of me.

So I have these two parts of me.
I have the emotional side of my brain and I have the very mathematical science side. So every time I try to get out the emotion, I need to put a mathematical equation in to know that I'm working towards it. Now, what do I mean by that? A mission to me becomes a mathematical somewhat of a sentence, a framework. It needs to have the what, the why, and the who.

A mission to me becomes a mathematical somewhat of a sentence, a framework. It needs to have the what, the why, and the who.
This allows me to know exactly where my North Star is. Because sometimes you can get derailed. So know your North Star. Write a mission statement, again, that creates the who, the what, and then the why. So my mission statement is to create content that impacts women, to help them with their mindsets. They never have to rebuild or unwire the negative mindset I've had to. Who? Women.

So if you were to ask me at any point, Lisa, will you come and speak in front of a thousand men? I go, does that fit my mission statement? No, because there isn't a woman in the audience. So while I really want to help men, and I think it's super freaking important, my specific mission of why I show up every day is to help the woman. Okay. The what? Create content. Why?

So while I really want to help men, and I think it's super freaking important, my specific mission of why I show up every day is to help the woman. Okay. The what? Create content. Why?
Because I went to film school. I love creating content. So if you want to know how I'm going to be able to show up every day and fight for my mission, it's doing the thing that I love. Now you can imagine, Lisa, can you come on a fishing trip with me and talk to my daughter, my daughter's cousin or my daughter's friend's cousin?

Now you can imagine, Lisa, can you come on a fishing trip with me and talk to my daughter, my daughter's cousin or my daughter's friend's cousin?
And I'll be like, all right, well, let me go back to my mission statement. Creating content, this isn't content creation. And I would just break down, okay, it's a woman, but it's not content creation. So actually that isn't where my energy should go. And so I'm able to say no with respect and politeness, but I know that's not my North Star. And then why?

To help women unwire the negative mindset that I've had to do. So now when you ask, when Leap Academy reaches out and says, Lisa, will you come on? Of course, I'm going to say yes, because I look at my mission statement and it fits perfectly. But if you were to ask me to create content that helps women paint their nails...

Again, it fits two, but it doesn't fit that third one, which is actually to help women unwire the negative mindset. So you can see where there's all these different opportunities potentially that could derail me because I love nails. Oh my God, yes, I want to teach women nails. It would derail me from my mission. Oh my God, yes, I really want to help men. It would derail me from my mission.
