Hey there!Thank you so much for wanting to take your Everything is Figureoutable

journey even deeper. Grab your nearest and dearest, meet up in person or

virtually, and welcome to the #EIFBookClub!

Important Note:

These questions are designed to help you move powerfully ahead no matter

how much you’ve read of the book (you don’t even have to wait until you’ve

finished it!). And they’re NOT a replacement for the action challenges in the

book. They actually build upon that work and accelerate your experience.

Remember, the world needs that special gift that only you have. We’re waiting

for you!

Let’s do this,

Your Beliefs1. Have you ever heard a voice that said, “This ain’t it. You’re meant for

something more”? What was it trying to tell you? What did you do

when you heard that voice?

2. What’s a belief you have that’s bolstered you and kept you going when

nothing seemed to work out the way you’d hoped?

3. What’s a belief you have that’s harmed you? Where did that belief

come from and how can you either dismiss that harmful belief or

reframe that story in your mind?

Challenges, Excuses & Fear 4. What’s the biggest challenge in your life right now where the

everything is figureoutable philosophy would help? How can you start

applying the everything is figureoutable attitude to this challenge

today? Write it down and commit to change.

“You wouldn’t have the dream if you didn’t already have what it takes to make it happen.”

5. Out of the 3 excuses—“I don’t have time,” “I don’t have money,” and

“I don’t know where to start”—which one do you find yourself using

most often? Are those excuses really true when you dig deep or is

there fear holding you back? What can you do to work past those

excuses starting now?

6. What’s something you’re afraid to do (or create or become) that’s not

an actual life or death fear? How can you reframe those feelings of

fear and interpret them in a way that helps you?

Going For Your Dreams7. Whose opinion do you value that you shouldn’t? Are you willing to

ignore the voice that keeps you feeling small so your dreams have

space to flourish? What can you do today to set healthy boundaries?

Write it down and commit to having those tough conversations.

8. What do you want more of in your life—love, acceptance, appreciation,

recognition, etc.? What can you do right now to give to others that

which you want to receive? Think big or small. Every action matters.

9. Marie talks about the importance of connecting your dreams to

something larger than yourself. What’s your greater why? What do

you want to change in the world and how does that cause/person/

community fuel and inspire you?

It’s About Progress, Not Perfection10. On the days when you feel like you suck and you’re not the real deal,

what triggers that feeling? Who can you call and what can you do to

quiet that negative inner voice? Make a list and keep it close—tough

days will always happen, but they don’t have to stop you.

11. What’s an area of your life where you could cut down on distractions

so you have more time and space to go for your dreams? Smart

phones, social media, email, and meal planning are just a few of the

examples Marie gives. What will you do with the free time you have

when you cut those things out or limit your time on them?

12. Do you have a fixed mindset (the belief that born talent is all

that matters) or a growth mindset (the belief that hard work and

perseverance is how you get ahead)? For the areas in your life where

you have a fixed mindset, what can you do to transform that into a

growth mindset? What will you commit to shifting in your thinking and

in your actions?

Your EIF Moment13. Marie ends the book with stories from everyday people who have used

the everything is figureoutable philosophy to transform their lives.

Have you had an everything is figureoutable moment in your life? How

did you feel during that process? (Want to share your EIF moment

with Marie? Write [email protected], we’d be honored!)
