But beneath this concern from the cost of living abroad, could there be a more precise question: Can I afford the lifestyle I want while living overseas? Is it truly that you 'can't afford it'? Or maybe it requires some adjustments, stepping outside your comfort zone, preparations etc.

Sound familiar? But actually, like in many other things in life, it's never the right time. Never the right time to quit a job, never the right time to have kids, never the right time to start investing, never the right time for a life change... Maybe later, when the kids are older, summer ends, and the birds will be singing.

The important part is - Timing is a choice. Your choice. Only you can decide when is the right time to do something.

And may we ask you (we love this saying)... When will now be a good time?​

Some of our beliefs have deeper roots than others, but once you start, you'll see - you can challenge all of your beliefs! And decide which one actually helps you live the life you want for yourself, and which is holding you back.

So what can we do when we realize we have a limiting belief?

We've got a little challenge for you. Let's call it the "Belief Flip Challenge."

Alright, it's time to roll up your sleeves and turn things around, for your own benefit. Here's how to make those flips:

1. Question the Belief: 
​Ask yourself, "Is this belief true?"
We often think our beliefs are facts, but they're usually from experience or fears.

2. Gather Evidence:
​Ask yourself, "What proof do I have to validate this belief?"
Sometimes, we come to realize that we have built our old beliefs on shaky ground. We always find proof for the limiting beliefs, and the empowering ones. It's up to us to decide which direction we focus our attention.

3. Craft Empowering Beliefs:
Now comes the fun part – crafting new beliefs that serve you. Instead of saying "I can't afford it", consider, "I am resourceful and capable of creating the lifestyle I desire".
And don't forget to gather evidence for that too! Based on previous experience, your surroundings, strengths, role models. It's out there (in you in some cases!), be sure of that!

So, what's the result of this belief-flipping magic? Instead of stumbling over invisible barriers, you're now stepping on stones that lead to your dreams.

Those whispers of doubt? The negative self-talk? The echoes of your own empowering declarations have already replaced them.

Speaking of empowerment, let's discuss tools that help you stay on the path of belief-busting success.

As you take each step forward, remember that your own set of beliefs is your companion on this journey.

Your beliefs are not roadblocks, but rather signs that point you toward achieving your goals, expansion, and transformation.

So, as you stand on the cusp of a new adventure, let your dreams roar louder than those doubts. Your potential is limitless, your journey is extraordinary, and your beliefs are yours to shape. It's time to rewrite the story – one belief flip at a time.

Cheers to you, your dreams, and the boundless possibilities that await! And remember, we're always here for you, so you'll never have to do this all alone.
