"Iceberg, Right Ahead!"

Undoubtedly the most riveting line from the Titanic trailer back in 1997 - I vividly remember being excited about that preview! =)  And it's a good post title since I'm thinking a lot lately about the iceberg illustration... I even printed several blank ones and used this in a counseling session and it was really helpful, so thanks again, Mel Robbins!

What other people see on the outside is ALWAYS a reflection of tons of things happening beneath the surface: our core beliefs and the stories we quietly tell ourselves... that generate the systems and support we put in place... and influence the habits and patterns we live by.  This iceberg model really helps me to visualize that... and if you're struggling in some area, mapping out a negative and positive "iceberg" might be a really awesome tool to help you see things more clearly!  (Name the problem, then start at the bottom and work up).

Here's mine:

For now, to quote my new friend, Mel, in her daily emails throughout this six-month course:  "Lindsey [insert your name here], in case no one else tells you today, let me be the one to tell you that I love you and I believe in you, and I believe in your ability to create a better life!"

Let's freaking do this.
