Tweaks & Hacks For Success

How many times have you set a goal or planned to get a task done, only to have something relatively trivial get in the way of accomplishing it as you intended?  Maybe the situation only caused a delay or maybe it caused you to completely lose sight of the goal forever!

Whatever the case, you can set yourself up for success with these tweaks and hacks for what I call your “Environments”…

Physical Body:  

Your health, wellness, fitness and habits that affect your body.  If you aren’t in good health or simply don’t have much energy, it can hinder your success.  What changes can you make in this area to support your success?  Exercise daily?  Eat more veggies?  Drink more water?

Physical Environment:

Your physical space, including your geographic location.  A cluttered physical space or living someplace you don’t like can get in your way.  What can you do to change your physical space so you’ll be more successful?  Organize and/or throw out stuff?  Paint a fun color on the wall?  Add flowers or beautiful artwork?

Social Environment:

The people you surround yourself with.  Spending time with people who are negative can bring you down too.  On the other hand, positive people will lift you up.  What can you do in this area to bring more success to your life?  Who can you invite into your life?  Who will you spend less time with?

Mental Environment:

Knowledge and Thoughts.  If you’re missing crucial knowledge to be successful, you’ll struggle.  What can you do in this area to be successful more easily?  Learn a skill?  Find someone to delegate to?

Emotional Environment:

Attitude and Feelings.  Your mindset is key to your success.  If you have confidence, passion and a positive attitude, success will come more easily to you.  What can you do to tweak this area?  Meditate? Listen to happy music?  Do an activity you enjoy immensely?  Positive affirmations?

Spiritual Environments:

Connecting with your soul, the universe, whatever spiritual entities you believe in.  When you connect with your spiritual side, you’re also connecting with your purpose.  Feeling purposeful can pull success to you more easily.  What changes can you make to enhance your spiritual environment?

Discovery Environments:

Creating or putting yourself into situations that allow you to learn and grow. Getting out of your comfort zone on a consistent basis allows you to grow.  What changes will you make to this area?  Bucket List?  Do something new each month, week, day?

There are a plethora of changes you can make to your environments.  It may seem overwhelming!  You can make it manageable.  Choose a few items to focus on first, then chunk them down into pieces and tackle one thing at a time.  Design a rapid implementation plan to schedule each action you need to take to make each change.

Before you know it you will transform your world so it is pulling you toward success at light speed.

Raise Your Money Vibration

Today’s post is a follow up to my last post, “It Might Sound Woo-Wooey… But… It Frickin’ Works!!!” In that article, I explained why your energetic vibration is important and how it affects your reality.

If you haven’t read it and don’t buy into the energetic vibration idea because it’s too woo-wooey, go there first to get the full scoop from my very down to earth perspective.

Today I’m going to give you some very practical, tangible techniques you can use to raise your energetic vibration around money, so it becomes easier to get more of it.

Tip #1 – Awareness

Pay attention to your thoughts. Yes, your words are important. However, your thoughts are most important. If you find yourself saying, “I have more than enough money,” which is positive and supportive, yet you’re still thinking, “I’m so broke,” the thought will override the words you said and bring your energy down.

Focus on the thoughts you’re having. Don’t worry about changing anything just yet. Just notice what the thoughts are when you’re dealing with money.

Tip #2 – Stop and Shift in The Moment

Once you become aware of the thoughts you have around money and in what situations you have unsupportive thoughts, you can stop yourself and shift in the moment.

You might notice that every time you pay for something, you have thoughts of scarcity and maybe even resentment. Now, every time you are about to pay for something, STOP and notice your thoughts. Consciously shift your thought to something more supportive, which reflects what you really want.

Tip #3 – Come from Gratitude, Love, Trust & Joy

It probably sounds easier said than done to Stop and Shift in The Moment. To make it easier to shift your thought, focus first on your feelings. Find a way to feel gratitude. “I’m grateful that I have the money to pay for this now.” Feel a feeling of love in your heart and let that feeling of love expand. Feel total trust that more money will come to you and there is plenty. Finally, feel joyful as you pay the money and do it with the intention that it will come back to you 10 times, 100 times, 1000 times.

Emotions are the fastest way to shift your energetic vibration. Focus on these feelings when money comes to you also so you attract even more.

As you use these tips, you will feel the difference in your energy.

I’d love to hear from you too. Share your results in the comments section below. Let us know how you use these tips to shift your own energy and tell us how that changes your actual money situation.

It Might Be Woo-Wooey... But... It Frickin' Works!!!

Mindset is the most critical key to success, no matter how you slice it.

If you go around saying,

“I’m broke.”   “I don’t have the money.” “I can’t afford it.”

You’re going to keep being broke. You’re going to keep not having the money. You’re going to keep not being able to afford it.

If you go around saying,

“I don’t have any clients.”   “No one wants to pay.”   “I’m just not good at getting clients.”

You’ll keep attracting the same thing. You’ll keep not having any clients. You’ll keep attracting people who don’t want to pay. You’ll keep not being good at getting clients.

However, if you shift your own vibration, then you can change what actually happens in your life… You can change your reality.

It might sound woo-wooey… but… it frickin’ works!!!

Beautiful Authors Speak ~ How To Write A Book

Ever thought about writing a book?  It's a big goal and I'm blessed to know many people who have actually done it.  I found myself intrigued by their experiences and thought other people would be too.  Whenever I found out someone was a published author of a real live book (well, not live)... I would ask them tons of questions and most of the time they were happy to share with me.  I guess I'm like Barbara Walters that way.  (For you kids out there, she's known for getting her interviewees to open up.)

Anyway, I thought if I'm already asking these questions and their willing to spill the beans to me, why not share this with the world?  So I created a virtual event where I'm interviewing authors about what it took for them to get their book written and published.

This is amazing!  If you want to hear from 13 authors (this group is exclusively from Las Vegas) on how they became published authors, what they went through during the process, what they overcame, how they grew and more...  join us Dec 9-11, 2013... it's free to listen live...  or get the recordings...  http://bit.ly/IG6Arr

It will be awesome!  Hope to see you there.

How to Make Weight Loss a Priority when You're Busy!

When you have a busy business or even just a busy life, it's challenging to make weight loss a priority.  Whatever you have going on in life though, it's important to take care of your body.  It's the vessel that lets you do all you do.  If it's not in the best condition, it will be harder for you to live fully and be productive.  I know how challenging it can be.  I used to be in great shape and it used to be so easy.  Then it wasn't anymore and I didn't know why.  I knew it had to do with subconscious and emotional triggers.  I just wasn't sure how to switch it.  Then I found the answer and it got me on the path to transformation.  It has nothing to do with diet and exercise.  It has everything to do with what's going on inside! http://bit.ly/1iEXu8N

Weight Loss - Emotional & Subconscious Triggers

Most people tackle a weight loss challenge by focusing on the food they eat and exercising more.  What if that's not the answer?

What if the real root of weight gain and the roller coaster ride of lose-gain-lose-gain is really about emotional and subconscious triggers you're not even aware of?  (uh-um...  if you're saying "nope, that's not it...  note that I mentioned "subconscious"...  in other words, you would not be aware of it).

So, how do you know if that's it?  Well, if you keep going on a diet or changing your eating habits or going on some program...  then you keep either going off the program right away or gaining weight back after having success, you can almost bet there's an emotional or subconscious trigger behind it.

So, what do you do about it?  That answer is simple and it's not.  The simple answer is you get support to get to the bottom of it... find the triggers and transform them.  Here's a resource with more details AND 5 specific stages to create that transformation http://bit.ly/1iEXu8N
