In this episode of the Rachel Hollis Podcast, Rachel explores the importance of self-belief in achieving personal goals and realizing dreams. She emphasizes that seeking external validation for belief in oneself is less effective than fostering internal conviction. Rachel introduces her practice for staying focused and actualizing dreams, which involves gratitude, writing down goals daily, and planning the day ahead. She discusses the significance of knowing why change is necessary, differentiating between dreams and goals, and the process of turning dreams into actionable plans. Rachel encourages listeners to reflect on their resources, understand where they are starting from, and visualize their ideal future as part of the goal-setting process. This episode also includes a guided meditation aimed at helping listeners envision their best life. Rachel wraps up by urging the audience to identify their 'why' and outlining the next steps in the series for further exploring how to achieve one's ideal future self.
