Today, I was enjoying sitting in my backyard, watching the farmer plant seeds in the field behind our house.⁣
⁣
It reminded me of something that my mentor shared with me when I was first starting my business and eager to create something amazing. ⁣
⁣
She said to me, “It’s ok to have goals and take your time to get there. Flowers don’t grow faster if you pull on them… they break and you have to start all over again.” ⁣
⁣
If you too have big dreams and aspirations, just know that it takes time. If you keep pulling out your crop to see how it’s growing, it’s going to take way longer than if you have patience and trust the process.⁣
⁣
Ask yourself, where are you trying to force your ‘flowers’ (goals) to grow?⁣

One question I often ask myself when I am working

One question I often ask myself when I am working towards achieving a certain outcome is… ⁣
⁣
How would a fulfilled person who already has ( insert desire) show up in this situation? How would they communicate, feel, carry themselves, etc. ?⁣
⁣
For instance, let’s say I wanted to double my finances. I would ask myself, how would someone who is fulfilled and has this level of financial abundance act in this situation. ⁣
⁣
What this does is helps me be able to feel and embody what I desire from a place of inspiration and abundance as opposed to reacting from desperation or lack.⁣
⁣
You can also do this for something that you feel like you are trying to force or push. It helps you be able to approach it from a more fulfilled perspective.⁣

The key to more joy and ease is to be ok not needi

The key to more joy and ease is to be ok not needing to perform all the time.⁣ ⁣⁣
⁣
The more you ‘need’ to perform, the more frustrated you are going to feel when you aren’t achieving. This is also when things can feel like they are harder than they need to be.⁣ ⁣⁣
⁣
Remember, your worth isn’t tied to what you do. ⁣ ⁣⁣
⁣
You are already worthy.⁣ ⁣⁣
⁣
What is one thing that you would love to have more ease and flow in right now?⁣

If you want to increase your abundance, increase h

If you want to increase your abundance, increase how many people you are helping. ⁣ ⁣
When you are focused on service, abundance naturally follows.⁣

One sure way to feel unhappy is to compare yoursel

One sure way to feel unhappy is to compare yourself to others.⁣
⁣
Not only do you become unhappy, but you also feel ungrateful which decreases your energy, inspiration, self-worth, confidence, etc. ⁣
⁣
When you find you are comparing yourself to someone else, ask yourself what it is about this person that I admire? ⁣
⁣
Perhaps it’s their lifestyle, confidence, fitness level, or wealth. ⁣
⁣
Whatever it is, ask yourself where in your life do you possess the same type of trait? ⁣
⁣
As Dr. John Demartini says, ‘if you’ve spot it, you’ve got it!’ ⁣
⁣
The truth is, you too have that same quality. It just manifests in different ways. ⁣
⁣
By owning your worth and appreciating who you are, it will automatically increase your sense of worth, which will increase your inspiration, and lead to you feeling happier.⁣
⁣
Be grateful for yourself. Your happiness depends on it :)
