Is there really a way to live in flow, even for me?
Lori – with all the stress I’m feeling, being on the go all the time, surrounded by negative news everywhere I turn – how in the word do I live in flow?
Life is simple – You make it hard
I talk with people every day who are so stuck in their beliefs and convinced that “nothing is going to change,” or “it hasn’t ever happened before,” or they are stuck in their circumstances, there is a conspiracy and the world and everyone in it is out to get them…there is no way out. I’m serious!
It starts with You
When you decide that it’s time to shift your perspective in life – you can do it.
When you decide that being stressed out all the time, or 75% of the time is no way to live – you’ll change it.
When you realize that you are not limited by the inner critic that holds you back from things you want – you’ll change the channel.
When you realize you have a choice to think different thoughts, shift your energy and have more fun, prosperity and success – you’ll do it.
Albert Einstein said, “You cannot solve a problem with the same mind that created it.”
That means that as long as you focus on what’s wrong, what’s missing, what “they” did, why you “can’t,” you’ll continue to experience more things that don’t work. You’ll always be struggling with not enough money or friends or time (if that’s your issue) and you won’t see a way that you can do something. Is your focus is on the Problem or Solution?
It Takes Practice
Did your parents tell you that when you were a baby, one day you just stood up and walked and that was it? I seriously doubt it!
Shifting your mindset, learning a new way to think, creating new patterns, it’s not a one and done thing. It takes practice, just like learning a musical instrument, lifting weights, learning new software, or picking up a new hobby. It takes a minute – often mixed with a bit of trial and error.
Quitters Never Win
Winners Never Quit
That’s what it takes, some perseverance, mixed with a strong desire to shift things in your life and a sense of humor to laugh at yourself. Humor gives you perspective when you get wound up and your inner six year old shows up to pout, cry or have a “quit fit.” Get it out of your system and move on!
I’m consistently baffled by the number of people who tell me, “He said he would do “X” and he never did.”
“Did you follow up with him?” I ask.
“No.”
News flash! If you want something, you’ve got to go after it. Ask again, ask in a different way, find another path, another person, another resource.
Think about it, when you really want something to happen, you’re persistent and resourceful, aren’t you?
Don’t give up, look for the open door, wait for the impulse or spark of inspiration and follow it.
The easiest way to share with you how to begin to live in flow:
1 – DECIDE what you want (how you want your day to go, meeting or conversation to go, family time, etc.)
2 – BELIEVE that it is possible (this is the big one for many people)
3 – SHIFT your expectations to see what you want happening
4 – ALIGN your focus (perspective) to be consistently on what you want (not what’s wrong, or didn’t work, ignore that shit)
5 – FOLLOW the impulses you get, take Inspired Action when an idea hits vs. constantly pushing and attempting to control everything
6 – CELEBRATE your results, big or small…
The more you do this, the more you expect good things to happen – the more things you’ll have to celebrate.
More synchronicity will appear in your life, seemingly out of nowhere.
It will deliver so much fun, things that make you smile and an amazing perspective in life.
You’ll likely decide this is a better way to live!
STOP Arguing for Your Limitations!
You can DO anything you want to do.
You can BE anything you want to be.
You can HAVE anything you want to have.
Stop complaining, making excuses and blaming other people for what’s happening in your life.
You contribute to everything that happens, you get what you’re looking for and what you focus on whether you want it or not. Like attracts like.
Are you ready?
Shift your perspective.
Let go of the old movies in your head, the old beliefs that you know are no longer true, and all the limiting messages you’ve heard throughout your life.
It’s time to move on…drop the oars of fear, anxiety and control and let the current of life carry you.
You’ll be blown away by the rewards of letting go and living in FLOW.
