How To Soar To New Heights

“How does it feel to be completely blocked from achieving your highest potential? You know you want to get there; you feel you can do it; you even imagine it in all its glory.  But nothing happens.  You can’t make the transition.”~ B. E. 

The above is a fairly typical example of  how my clients express themselves when they feel stuck.
Perhaps there are moments when you feel this way too?It is also fairly common to gain moments of clarity in the stuck process.  You start to get energized and take steps to get yourself out of the rut.  You feel like you are making progress and you feel excited.  Then “something” happens.  You are not sure exactly what that something is, but it stops you from moving forward.  You find yourself pulling back again, this time even further.  You’re not sure why you pull back but you do. Your primary instinct is to seek comfort.  Comfort from your internal tug of war.
So what is this all about – what’s really going on when a person feels this way? Although a person may feel stuck, it is important to understand what “stuck” represents.  Often you will hear the comparison of being stuck to being in the middle of something.  The middle of something that one may feel they can’t get out of or not sure which direction to go.This is a very accurate description.  The truth is, the person who is feeling this way is  indeed stuck in the middle of something!  And that something usually represents the past and the future. This is why feeling stuck can be very confusing and needless to say, emotional.
So how do you get unstuck? 
On Monday, August 31, 2015 from 7:30pm until 9:00pm ET, I will be presenting an on-line workshop that will help you sort it all out.  Following will be Q&A time.  Just imagine what it will feel like when you are no longer trapped in the middle of your past and future.  Take a moment and envision being unstuck.  Do you see yourself soaring above – perhaps soaring to your higher self?

Take a look at what my client has to say now (the one who wrote the quote above) about being unstuck…
“I feel like I’m soaring like a bird.  I smell the sweet, sweet air with the gentle wind against my face.  It’s delightful, it’s exhilarating, it’s freeing!” ~B.E.

Since I believe in providing value to my clients, I try throughout the course of the year to offer events that are affordable for all to participate – this is just my way of giving back.  This is why this event is only $69.99. ($1,000. value)The event however is only open to the first ten (10) people who register.  Then it is locked.  Since all of my workshops sell out, I encourage you to register now so you don’t miss this event.  This one is sure to be POWERFUL!
Note:  Please come prepared to learn and be open to a fresh perspective on how to get unstuck.  Remember, the more open you are to learning, the faster the understanding will come.  Once the understanding arrives, you are more apt to accelerate change.  Just a hint…xo

Simplicity Is A Sign Of Growth

“Going Back To A Simpler Life Is Not A Step Backward” – Yvon Chouinard said that and he was right.

Simplicity Is A Sign Of Growth
It’s important to understand that “letting go” is part of the process of going back to a simpler life.  It is not in any way a reflection of you failing to achieve or hold onto “something.”  That’s not what we are talking about here.

It takes courage to simplify one’s life.  Did you hear that?  It takes courage to simplify one’s life.  Real courage to “let go” and be free of the things you may have considered important or special at one time.

Recognizing that your “things” may no longer be serving you (and can actually be holding you back from living life to the fullest) is a true sign of personal growth.  There’s a lot to be said about a person who can relinquish the old and welcome the new; even if they aren’t sure what that may look like.

I see way too often people who struggle with the notion that “letting go” is somehow a sign of weakness or giving up.  This can be to their detriment as it propels them into a perpetual state of fear because they simply cannot bear the thought they may be “losing.”  But you see there is no loss with simplicity. Simplicity offers freedom of all that was but no longer is.  So how can one lose when one becomes free?  You simply cannot.

The process of purging one’s life is powerful.  A process fully embellished with tender moments of self-discovery.  An internal treasure hunt if you please.

Tell me, what’s more beautiful than that?

You Get To The Point Where…

“You get to the point where your demons, which are terrifying, get smaller and smaller and you get bigger and bigger.” – August Wilson

Do you ever get to the point where your clutter just seems so big?  Do you feel terrified, almost paralyzed when you think about “attacking” it?  The key to overcoming this fear of clutter is to take the first step, one at a time, with a laid out plan.  Once you begin to build up your resistance to the “powerless” feelings, you will see how the clutter begins to take on a new look.  It will get smaller and smaller and you will become bigger and bigger.
