Is it time for change?

One of the most common questions I receive is from people who are in what seems to be a situation without a solution. It seems as if every direction they turn, they hit a brick wall, no way out, up or around the problem. I call this the illusion of resistance. It is resisting changing something that you dread parting with. Lalah’s business is declining. She feels she may need to close her business and find a job. Her classes are not full; and no one is visiting her Web site. Convinced that she has tried everything, she has turned to blaming the economy, her ex-husband and her divorce for the failure of her business. Lalah has been invited by a large women’s organization to be a presenter. The opportunity to speak at this conference would put her in the international spot light. Because of her fear of not being good enough, Lalah has avoided public speaking. However the success of her business depends on it. This situation may seem easy to resolve, but owning up to your fears and being willing to work past them can be challenging. Instead of overcoming her fear and accepting the offer to speak, she claims she doesn’t have time to take a class or invest in being a better speaker. As her business intutive, it is clear to me that in order for her business to thrive, Lalah will have to step past her fear and resistance to change. By the way, Lalah suggested I share her story with you.

What are you holding onto – beliefs, ideas, fears that are keeping you from reaching your dream? What change are you resisting? Is procrastination showing up?

Here is a three step formula that will allow you to see past your boundaries, step through your blocks and open the door to new opportunities! Remember, wherever there is a problem or a challenge, its solution is always present in the same moment.

Step 1 -

Identify the “real” problem. It is easy to blame other situations, the past or other people. Step back and sit in a quiet space. Remove the drama surrounding the problem and cut right to the core issue. It’s much easier to resolve the real problem than it is to try and solve dramatic issues surrounding the problem. In Lalah’s case she was afraid of public speaking and that was all that was blocking her business success.

Step 2 -

Ask Yourself: What would the situation be without the problem? What would it look like if the problem were gone? How would you feel without the problem? What is the complete opposite of the problem? If Lalah had no fear of public speaking her business would be much more successful.

Step 3 -

The Change. What do YOU have to change to make the new result you are seeking a reality? Once you identify what you must change, take action immediately to manifest your new result.

After one coaching session, Lalah decided to release her resistance to change and work on her fears! Using intuitive coaching, spiritual reading and the Emotional Freedom Technique in two sessions, Lalah was able to overcome her fear and she accepted the invitation to speak at the conference. In the first month following her presentation, Lalah earned three times her previous month and in 2011 she expects her final earnings to be well over $270,000. This will make her fourth year in business the most successful to date.

It is really that simple and can happen very quickly. It is always easier when you remove the drama first! Remember you must remove the drama, cut right to the problem and have the courage to change!

Believe in yourself….

You choose, on a moment-by moment basis, the setting, the characters, and the story line.  Your thoughts, emotions and feelings are like magnets, attracting to you the people, events and experiences that create your personal story. Your choices, beliefs and feelings determine the outcome of the story.  Since you are the author, you are responsible for whatever is happening in your life.  If you like the way your life is going, then you are making great choices and attracting the people and experiences that are making your life joyful.  If you are not completely satisfied with your life, now is the time to rewrite your story.

There is a common myth held by many that someone else or something is responsible for your success, joy, happiness or failure.  As children we are bombarded with images in fairytales, movies and storybooks that show us that a prince will come and rescue us from the evil stepmother or we will be rescued by seven dwarfs or a beast. It is no wonder that we grow up believing someone is going to rescue us and make us happy, or worse, that someone else is totally responsible for our misery.  You are 100% responsible for your life, your joy, your future, your failure, your achievements and the people you allow into your life.  This also includes responsibility for your health, physical fitness, career, success, your income, your debts and your feelings.

Stand in the background at any social event and you will probably hear someone say, “He or she made me angry.”  Or “If only my spouse would        (fill in the blank)                 I would be happy” Or “I hate to go to work because I don’t like my boss.”  Expecting someone to make you happy is a heavy burden to put on someone and it will usually lead to disappointment. You must own your life and take responsibility for doing what ever it will take to bring you joy.

If you want to live your dream life, you have to take 100% responsibility for your life.  This means giving up excuses about why things aren’t working. Stop blaming others for your life-you are not a victim.  The more you remove yourself from this way of thinking the more you will begin to attract the life you want.  Feeling like a victim and believing you don’t have the power to change your situation blocks you from attracting the things, events, opportunities and people that you want. Happiness and success are a choice.  You have the power to choose!

Gratitude and love have the same high frequency.  Therefore the more appreciative you are the more will come to you.  What if you give someone a gift and they are unappreciative or don’t say thank you – is it likely that you would go out of your way to give them another gift?  The Law of Attraction works the same way.  In order to attract more of the blessings that life has to offer, you must truly appreciate what you already have!   Gratitude is the joy of being thankful for what you have and appreciating the joy of giving.  Giving to others allows you to experience an even deeper level of gratitude.  By giving to others you are saying, “I am grateful for what I have and I am willing to share.”  Sharing your resources and time with others is one of the greatest forms of gratitude.

What are you thankful for?  Take the next few days to list everything you are grateful for in every area of your life.  Include everything from the beautiful flowers you pass by on your way to work to the stranger that holds the door for you at a restaurant.

To begin your gratitude journey, list everything you are grateful for in every area of your life.

The one big question most of us ask ourselves is “What should I do with my life?” For most people, it is a very difficult question to answer.

What is the purpose of your life?   Don’t know?  Maybe you even feel like you don’t have one?  In her book, “Unstoppable,” Cynthia Kersey writes that a prominent psychologist asked 3000 people, “What have you to live for?”  An amazing 94% answered by saying they had no definite purpose for their lives.  With those results, it is clear why there are so many unhappy people in the world.  We are all born with a purpose for being here - a “calling.”  Your job is to discover your life purpose and get on with the work of living it.  Each soul born into this life experience, even if life is a few short hours or years, has a definite purpose.   For many, the purpose has always been clear, for others, there is very little clarity.  It is never too late to reconnect with your purpose.

In order to connect with your Soul’s purpose, you must be clear about the meaning of “life purpose.”    Many make the mistake of thinking life purpose means having the perfect career or job.  Your purpose isn’t your career.  Your career is one of the tools you can use to manifest your purpose.   You have a global and personal purpose.  Your personal purpose involves a particular characteristic that you are here to develop or enhance, such as patience, compassion or forgiveness.  Your global purpose involves discovering, developing and using your unique talents, gifts and interests to help others and the planet.  Some people have a purpose that affects a few and others have a spiritual contract to help thousands.  Both are important and have an impact on the world.

If you feel you are not walking your life path, your inner self will begin to nudge you.  I call this nudge the Urge of the Soul.  This nudging may take the form of anxiety, stress, and a sense of time urgency or conflict.  If you ignore the inner nudging, you may begin to feel empty, depressed and unfulfilled.   You may begin to blame others and become angry.  Ignoring the nudge can often lead to low self-esteem and unfulfilling life decisions.    The nudge is your soul’s way of saying, “I am urging you to move on, find a new direction and get on with the business of living your life purpose.

Ultimately, your purpose is to discover how to use your unique gifts and talents in the world to create, joy, peace, awareness and harmony.  However, if you are not clear about your life purpose, you will need to take some time to discover your unique gifts and talents before deciding how to use them to change the world.

There is a place within you that has a desire for something more.  A place that is courageous and free of doubt and limitations.  A place that knows peace without struggle.  A place that forgives and does not regret nor forget why you are here. This is the place where your soul, your spirit, your higher power lives.  This is the place you must find within.  This is a place that sends you intuitive message for success, joy and peace.  This is the urge and calling of your Soul.  You can only connect with this place when you are willing to quiet your mind, develop a spiritual practice and have unwavering faith.

Intuitive Readings are NOT psychic readings or predictions. You will not learn about any event that might take place in the future or any disaster that may or may not be happening.  Your Spirit Guides provide you with information to help you live your life’s purpose.  None of the information you receive will be negative, scary or will because you fear. Even if you ask, your guides will not give me the answer to communicate to you.  I will neither share information with you that will cause you fear or anxiety nor will I have this information.  Once again, this is not a prediction of your future. Intuitive Readings are NOT a substitute for professional advice from a medical professional or therapist.
