Welcome back to. Every Day A New Thought. I'm your host, thor Chalgren, and each weekday I share new thought perspectives. Several days ago, in episode number 132, I started a four-part series to celebrate back to school. I'm calling this series Put Yourself First. In that first show, I shared my own perspective as an empty nest or parent and how, after we dropped off our daughter to college, I made a decision that it was okay for me to do something greater in life. I decided for me. Then, in yesterday's show, we talked about celebrating everything that you accomplished in whatever season of life. You're just completing Today for this third part of the series, I want to talk about giving yourself permission to shine.

If you've been in a support role for a long time, you're probably used to being the one who makes others look good. That's what we do as parents. We support them. Well, now it's your turn, but you have to start by giving yourself permission that it's okay for you to shine. If you haven't done this in a while, that might not be so easy. Because here's the thing whatever you do next, you want to be great at it. Let me ask you a question Is it okay for you to be even greater at this new thing than you were as a parent. Do you give yourself permission for that to be the case? You need to.

I talk about this idea of giving yourself permission more in the video training series I created called Put Yourself First. It's free. It's four videos, one every day followed by a short exercise. I think it's a great way to pause, reflect and then be able to move forward with confidence in the next chapter in your life. In one of those videos, I talk a lot more about this idea of permission and why it's so vital that we address it head-on, because if you don't, you may have this subconscious belief that you don't address and it may sabotage you from having success moving forward. Go check out the series. Like I said, it's free. It's in the show notes below and you can also find it on my website at thorchallgrencom.

I'll close today with this one idea about giving yourself permission. If I asked you, would it be okay if the next thing you do in life is greater than anything you've done before? And yes, I mean something doing something greater than being a parent? Can you truly say that? If it feels uncomfortable, definitely check out my video series. I'll say that for me. I'm in a place now where I can truly say, yes, I'm okay if I do something greater than being what I think was a pretty good dad. I give myself permission to be great. What about you?
