‘Trust the Process’ Ep04
of Exploring the Edge with Sian Phipps🎙️
Have you ever been told that phrase…
I first heard it from a wonderful trainer and mentor (and now very good friend), when I was first producing a tricky young horse. At the time, it seemed like 2 steps forward, 10 steps back.
That same horse went onto 3 internationals, and helped me achieve goals I could have only dreamed of. Not only that he’s been my best friend for 13years… and still to this day is just as tricky at times 🤷♀️🤦♀️
But outside of sport, life often throws us curve balls and challenges that can make us feel like it’s 2 steps forward, and 10 steps back towards our goals.
Recently I found some paperwork from when I started my first business (which I still have), what I was earning a month, I now charge for a single clinic. A 1:1 session has x5 in the investment. A business I built from nothing, now allows me to have the time and the energy to pursue a second business in a field I’m so passionate about.
Did I trust the process - yes.
Did I have goals, and vision boards, and do visualisation, and self talk … also yes.
But did I also take massive action consistently for over 10years.
Yes.
Trusting the Process isn’t about downing tools, sitting back and hoping the universe does its thing.
It’s quite the opposite.
Trusting the process is creating confidence through consistency.
It’s taking action that aligns with your vision and your goals.
Did I have cornbury international on my vision board… and did I also fit in all the training, fitness work and prep alongside running a business (which at the time was 13hr days!) in order to get there… yes I did.
But the action, built the trust.
And having the trust, meant I kept doing the action.
If you have big goals, big dreams, and you are prepared to go all in- then you’re in the right place 🙌
