I do a little mind reading on the side, so I know what you are thinking right now.

"This dude does not know how to spell thrones."
It's ok, thromes is a new word to me too. I learned about it at the TEDx Huntsville event I attended with my friend and fitness pro Katie Burrus. If you've never gone to a TED or TEDx event, you need to go some time. Very inspirational.

 

One of the speakers was Dan Meyer. Dan has done many extraordinary things, but he is best known for being a sword swallower.

 

He shared the concept of using thromes to drive how you live. Thromes are a combination of dreams and goals, kind of like a bucket list. His friend explained thromes this way:

 

"If you could go anywhere, do anything, be anyone you wanted to be, where would you go, what would you do, who would you be?"  

 

Have you ever asked yourself? I have to be honest, this hit me kind of hard. It made me realize that I have been dreaming too small and not setting my goals high enough. And I've got some lofty goals!

 

But you know what? My goals don't make me sweat when I think about them. Have you ever set a goal that makes you sick to your stomach when you think about it? One that makes you shift uncomfortable in your seat when you think about what you will have to do to accomplish it?

 

I have in the past, but haven't lately. No more. I want to share 3 of my thromes with you. This way there is no turning back for me.

 

1. Coach 1000 women over the next 2 years through my fitness products and services.

 

2. Have an adult playground built in the Huntsville area.

 

3. Speak at TEDx Huntsville

 

Palms are a little sweaty thinking about all that goes into making those happen, but it will happen. Side note, I am willing to accept any assistance you have to offer me along the way 🙂

 

How about you? Do you have a list of thromes? Put them out there! Don't be afraid to put yourself on the spot.
