YOU ARE A WINNER!  YOU CAN DO IT!!!

 Think of a time when you were really clear and focused on something you wanted to have in your life. It could have been a change you wanted to make or something new you wanted to take on.  You thought about it, planned how you were going to get it, worked hard to make it happen, imagined yourself accomplishing it, you may have even shared with others what you were going to do. Can you remember the details?


Do you remember the energy and excitement that fueled your desires, tenacity and commitment?  You have probably experienced this several times in your life. Maybe as  recent as this year. Great!!! The timing is perfect.  

What would be available to you if you were to get into a 2 month HOME STRETCH attitude on that or any other unfinished goal, dream, planning or project?  Can you see yourself crossing the finish line?

How exciting, two whole months to the end of the year. That's a lot of time to revisit your new year resolutions, goals, visioning and or planning for 2011. If you haven't done any of that this year, it's not too late. Each moment is a new moment!   

HOME STRETCH RECIPE FOR SUCCESS -  

Identify an event, outcome, result or experience that is important to you that you would like to begin to move forward on now.    

Write at least 3 reasons or benefits for taking on this venture. In other words, how will your life be different if you were to accomplish this task? (Begin with the end in mind as Stephen Covey would say).  

Take a deep breath and let whatever is running through your mind be there without judgement.  This is an opportunity to allow your beliefs, fears, concerns and judgements be there as information only!!!  You do not have to follow them.  

Make a few notes on what has worked when you have previously set goals or taken on projects. These are your strengths and success strategies. They can be transferred to this situation.


Make a few notes on what didn't work when you have previously set goals or taken on projects.  These are your obstacles or challenges. These can be challenged, explored and moved through. Not everything is as it seems.  Most of what you see here is your conditioning, programming, blueprints and filters of the situation. It might be time to let go of some of the excuses and justifications you give yourself that continue to sabotage your success.

Identify the people, tools, resources, partnerships, skills, qualities etc. that will support your process. DO NOT ATTEMPT THIS ALONE!!! 

Create a plan of action with dates of completion and schedule it out on the calendar.  

Get an accountability partner.

Acknowledge your process. Every aspect has valuable learning.   

Don't put a life you desire on hold any longer.  How would your life be different if you could finally break through any barriers, challenges or obstacles that are holding you back from living a life you love.  The time is now to step into your magnificence.

If not now, when?

Listen to Your Voice

10/3/2011

If you are unsure what I mean when I say, Listen To Your Voice, it refers to that deeper knowing inside that has all your answers. Call it instinct, call it gut, call it divine, call it wisdom. It matters little what you call it. The important piece is that you know or learn how to access it.

I am going to guess that among the many life experiences you have had up until now you may have an idea what I am talking about when I say, What is your heart yearning to say?  What makes your heart sing? You know that voice within you that speaks from the heart. Your heart-centered wisdom is your life force and vitality! The truth will set you free!! I invite you to listen intently.

The heart has more information to tell you than just that you are sad or lonely by a "heartache" or that you ate something that didn't agree with you when you experience a "heartburn" or that your heart is diseased or compromised when you have a "heart attack".

I am here to say it has messages and wisdom in the way of things that are good for you as well.  Your heart-centered wisdom or inner voice holds the key to your goals, dreams, desires and passions. It has the answers to all those questions we seek an answer to outside of ourselves.  You need not look any further, you have all you need to live a life you love. I can teach you to listen.

The question is, do you really want to hear? If you answered yes, then read on.  If you are not ready to hear or if you are afraid of what your heart is longing to say then I wish for you the courage and compassion to one day break free of your suffering, limiting beliefs and self-sabotaging actions. When the student is ready, the teacher will appear. I am not attached to it being me.

For those of you that are ready, read the instructions first then find a quiet place to practice. This exercise requires that you close your eyes so don't attempt this while driving or operating heavy machinery.  (You laugh but stranger things have happened).
  • Stop whatever you are doing and just sit still.
  • Sit relaxed with your shoulders back to allow for your chest to be fully exposed. (slumped shoulders block, prevent and shield a full experience) 
  • To remove any distractions in your surroundings, please close your eyes or bring them to a soft focus
  • Focus on your breathing and see if you can listen from your heart instead of your head.  
  • Get present to this moment.  
  • If the noise in your head is too loud, acknowledge that it is there yet choose not to follow it and return your focus to your breathing as many times as it takes.
  • When you experience a quiet, calm, openness, think of a situation that you would like an answer to in the form of what's next. Remember, you are asking for guidance, clarity & focus. 
  • You might want to start with "What is my heart wanting to say in this situation"?  
Trust whatever comes up even if it doesn't make sense at the time. Don't try to mold it or make it mean anything. That just takes you right back to the mindset that created the situation or suffering in the first place.  Listen to the purity and matter of fact simplicity of what is in your highest interest. Don't rationalize, analyze or compromise it with your stories, excuses or justifications. It is what it is. You internal wisdom is not attached to having you like it or agree with it. It will not be sugar coated or foreign. You will not be able to deny the truth it has for you.

If you want more information or would like help in creating a plan to move forward through the situation you worked on in this exercise, contact me at 985-860-8861 ordenise@empoweringpotential.com
 I am your partner in possibilities!
