Don’t go into a meeting blind – See clearly!

See clearly in your mind's eye

Someone sets the tone of every meeting.  When you are meeting with a client that person should be you.  This takes time and preparation.

We have all had experiences in meetings in which it unexpectedly starts off on a bad foot or shortly into the meeting things seem to go in a different direction than we had planned.  We find ourselves experiencing a lot of effort and our potential client is not responding in a way we expected.

Set the tone

As an intuitive business consultant I would like to offer an intuitive technique that helps set the energy or tone of a meeting.  This applies to a meeting in person, by phone or online.  It begins with meditation and depending on the importance of the meeting you will want to do this several times before the actual appointment

Going to a meeting blind

I would never recommend walking into a meeting blind meaning without a clear vision.   This is different from having an idea or plan.  Try the following exercise and see if it changes your experience in meetings.

Intuitive Exercise

Take the time to meditate.  This means to quiet the body, clear the mind, to stop thinking and open to your intuition.   Sitting in a quiet place with your eyes closed helps with meditation.

Your Vision

When you feel relaxed and have cleared your thinking then begin to imagine the upcoming meeting.  See it in your mind’s eye.

  • Be aware of your goal for the meeting
    • Release any thoughts you have that may get in the way of this
  • Be aware of the person or persons you are meeting with
    • Read them intuitively
    • What do you see or imagine is on their mind?
    • What are their expectations, concerns or needs?
  • Imagine how you would like to set the tone or energy of your conversation with them.
  • See the meeting going precisely as you would like.
    • Clear your thinking that may argue against your vision.
    • Release any doubts, fears or other emotions that are in the way of your certainty.

You may find that you have to do this exercise several times to clear your thinking and have a clear vision.  That is up to you.  When your vision is clear then you are ready.

Best wishes on your success.

Don’t Give Up Your Goals!

You have your vision for the year.  You are enthusiastic about your goals.  Your plans are in place.   It is just about now when the energy hits! You begin to wonder about your goals.  The energy level has dropped or things are not moving as expected.   This is normal so don’t give up your goals.

Each January my gym, and probably yours, experience a sudden increase in membership and participation.  We all complain about equipment not being available but also know that in one month those folks will be gone so we wait it out.  It is worth making this observation.  This happens not only to those who commit to working out  it happens to anyone setting goals.

Change Is Uncomfortable

When we create a goal and have a strong vision of it manifesting our energy changes and our entire universe starts to change so that this new goal can happen.   These changes are most often uncomfortable because change means getting out of our routine and our comfort zone.  When we get out of our comfort zone everything seems unfamiliar and uncertainty sets in.  It is at this point in our confusion that we consider giving up our goals.  Don’t give up your goals.

Old Thinking

A goal  is something that we don’t currently have but we want.  Our energy, thoughts and pictures create our current routine, to manifest our lives and our work as it is now.  To achieve our goals something, and maybe everything, has to change.  Our energy begins to change.  Everything feels awkward and perhaps uncomfortable.  We  also have to change our thinking, which challenges what we know or believe.  During this time we may doubt ourselves.   Finally we have to see our lives, our work and ourselves in a new way, a way that supports our vision.

Not for the Faint of Heart

Change can be unnerving when we aren’t aware of what is going on.  We tend to question our goals and our ability to achieve them when all we really need to do is focus even more on our vision, to observe the changes this vision is creating, be certain, be enthused and ride the storm of change.

As an intuitive business consultant I know that is the time when business owners and professionals decide to commit to their vision or give up.   In all the years I have consulted the reason most do not achieve their vision is because they decide it won’t happen.  It is my perspective that it takes great courage and determination to achieve goals.   Achieving our vision of  success is not for the faint of heart but achieving a vision has a profound impact on our sense of self and our ability to create.  Giving up our goals  creates a different impact.

Intuitive Tips

We call these periods of uncertainty growth periods or periods of growth.   They happen periodically and usually signal that you are taking a big step towards your goals.   When you hit the wall it is important to get energy moving.  This can happen in several ways.

  • Raise your energy level to enthusiasm!  For each of us that means different things.  Take the time to have fun!  Do something you enjoy.
  • Get the energy moving by taking a new step towards achieving your goals so that you don’t back away.  Do something you enjoy and that inspires you.
  • Get communication.  Talk to one or more people who you trust about your goals, the steps you are taking and get their best counsel.

Most importantly  focus on your vision of success, be in enthusiasm and create ways to keep the energy moving know that this period of change is part of the process.

Don’t give up your goals. When you are traveling on the road of  success and a bolder falls along the way, don’t stop.  Climb over it.  Walk around it.   Be certain that you will find a way.

Best wishes on your success.

A New Cycle – Your Vision for 2010!

New Year
A New Year!

It is a new year, a new cycle and a new decade but it is not a time for making resolutions.  More importantly it is time to decide how you want to be.   A new year is an opportunity to create change, set your energy in a new way, create a new perspective, and set your sights high!

Get Out of Your Comfort Zone and Routine!

For this to happen we have to get out of old patterns, routines and our comfort zone.  All of these keep things, as they have been whether we like them or not.

To create something new for 2010 change your energy.  Goals are met, changes made, experiences enjoyed from the vibration of enthusiasm!  It is nearly impossible to create from boredom, apathy, discouragement, etc.  These energy levels are too low for energy to move or change.

Intuitive Exercise (Meditation)

Take the time to imagine, see in your mind’s eye your vision for 2010.  Don’t think.  Quiet the mind.  Just imagine.   If you can see it intuitively then it IS manifesting.   If you cannot see or imagine what you want for 2010 then keep clearing your mind.  Stop thinking!  Quiet your space and go within.  Open to your own voice, listen then see, visualize or imagine what you wish to create.

Awareness

Notice your thoughts, emotions, concepts that get in the way of your vision.  Notice anything that gives you a reason not to have your vision.  Imagine clearing or letting these go. They are ideas and energies that you can release.

Repeat this meditation often, daily, weekly and watch your vision of 2010 manifest.

Help!

Best wishes for the New Year,

Multi-Tasking or Being Successful!

multitaskingAs an intuitive I pay attention to how we use our energy and if we are achieving our goals.  Those who are most successful are those who have the greatest ability to focus.

For many being BUSY and multi-tasking gives a great sense of satisfaction.  This does not, however, translate into success.  A study just came out of Stanford University on multi-taskers. “When they’re in situations where there are multiple sources of information coming from the external world or emerging out of memory, they’re not able to filter out what’s not relevant to their current goal,” said Wagner, an associate professor of psychology. “That failure to filter means they’re slowed down by that irrelevant information.”

To be successful our energy must be focused and directed to the specific actions designed to achieve our goals.  Knowing are vision of success and creating a plan to get there are the first two steps.  Now we have to ground our energy so that we can focus on our plan and not be distracted.

Sometimes we are just distracted by whatever grabs our attention or is on our mind.  Others may grab our attention to become involved in something of their choosing.  In any case, we are quickly off focus or multi-tasking.

When you focus 100% of your energy and attention on the vision of your success it will manifest.  On the other hand if you have a vision of success then you focus your energy not only on your vision but many other things then your vision has less energy to manifest.  Multi-tasking disperses your energy such that your efforts are scattered.   You may experience your successes being scattered.

Try this intuitive exercise to ground your energy and focus before you find yourself involved in multi-tasking or doing tasks that are not essential to achieving your goals.

At the beginning of each day take the time to meditate.

Close your eyes.  Take a deep breath and ground yourself.  Bring your attention into the center of your head.

See in your mind’s eye.  Don’t think.  See your vision of success.   See the steps you can take today to manifest this vision.

Stay in meditation until you have a clear vision for the day and you feel grounded in this plan.

Notice when you start to multi-task and refocus on steps to achieve your goals.

Hey! Where Am I?

0032PhotonicaFor the most part we have our attention in the future, our plans for today, this week, this year, our vision of success and more.   Having a clear vision is a very important aspect of creating.  We cannot manifest without this.

Be in the Moment

The other aspect of creating is the ability to be in the moment.  When we have a vision we tend to put our attention and awareness in the future.   This tendency to be IN the future actually keeps our goals beyond our reach because we imagine them there and have our energy there.   In this way a goal will be forever in the future.

Achieve Goals Now!

To achieve our goals means to have a clear vision then be sure that our attention, awareness and energy are completely in the moment.  Our attention and energy in the future whether that means in the next moment or the next year makes us feel scattered or out of it!  This is a clear sign that we are not in the moment.

Intuitive Consult

As a business intuitive this is one of the most common areas of focus.  Intuitively I can see the effect being in the future has on my clients’ business success.  When they are not in the moment then their success is always in the future.  Jeff was a new client.  He was doing all the right things.  He had a great business plan, a sound product and good business sense yet his company was not taking off like he had imagined.  When I looked at Jeff’s energy intuitively I saw that 80% of his energy was in the future, in his vision and out of present time.

Using meditation I taught Jeff to be in present time.  This was quite difficult for him at first because he was so used to being out in front of himself.  He said it even felt uncomfortable to bring his attention into the center of his head.  After about a week of practicing being in present time his business started to take off exactly how he imagined it would.  Is this a coincidence?

Intuitive Exercise

I recommend taking time throughout the day to simply stop.  Take a deep breath.  Close your eyes.  Imagine bringing all your attention and your awareness into the center of your head.  In this way you become centered in present time.

Notice how this feels.  Notice how far out of it you are, meaning out of the center of your head and out of the moment.  Spend the time it takes to be centered completely in present time.  Use your intuition to become aware of where you are.   Repeat this exercise several times a day until you know that you are in the moment.

Best wishes on your success!

Multi-tasking is in your way!

multitaskingResearchers at Stanford University published a study showing that the most persistent multi-taskers perform badly in a variety of tasks.  As an intuitive I agree with the results of this study and see this from a different perspective.  I have observed the importance of focus in achieving success and multitasking gets in the way of that because it scatters our energy and attention.

To those of us who have always been proud multi-taskers this a big blow!

Effect of Multi-Tasking

When we focus on our goals and the essential steps to get there we find success.  When our attention is divided, as in the case of multitasking, two things happen:

* Our energy is divided so no one goal has enough energy to manifest fully

* The vision of our success is diminished because we have other things in our mind’s eye as well

Importance of Focus

As a business intuitive I have also observed the effect of multitasking on the ability to create success. When we focus on our goals, our business plan, are not distracted and our attention is on this vision then our life force energy is not divided in multiple directions.  With focus we create success.

In the end we want to see our vision of success clearly, know the steps to get there then focus on our vision and take these steps.  The more focused we are the more successful we become.

Being grounded and centered in ourselves helps us to limit the urge to multi-task.  Try this intuitive exercise every time you feel the need or find yourself multitasking rather than focusing on your goals.

Intuitive Exercise

Find a place to sit.  Close your eyes. Take a deep breath and release.  Repeat the breathing until you feel yourself begin to relax.  Bring your attention and awareness onto yourself.  Begin to imagine the most important goal you are trying to achieve right now.  See it or imagine it.

Imagine bringing your energy and awareness off anything and everything that is grabbing your attention.   Focus on your goal.

See the steps to achieve this goal.  Take a deep breath and release.  Decide the step you want to focus on right now.  Open your eyes.  Take a deep breath.  Now focus that step.

Best,

Kay

The courage to succeed!

dreamstime_leapYesterday I was mentoring the owner of an interior design firm.  She was ready to take her business to the next level.  Issues she wanted to address were the addition of new staff, new office space, implementing a new marketing plan,  etc.  I saw intuitively that she was smart, had clear goals and understood the importance of having a clear vision.  I also saw that her business plan was ready to move forward.

What is Courage?

This is the same point where many with a strong vision get stuck.  To manifest a vision takes great courage.  From an intuitive perspective having courage means bringing the information in the first chakra (fear and survival instincts) into communication with the sixth and seventh chakras (clear vision and certainty).

Finding Your Courage

Engaging the first chakra means a willingness to allow change but also the willingness to take risk but not at all cost.  When you have a strong and clear vision and you are focused on this vision then the risk is worth taking.  Nonetheless it can be scary.

When we avoid engaging our courage then the goals that challenge us the most don’t move forward.  Try the exercise below to engage your courage.

Intuitive Exercise

Create a space of quiet.  Close your eyes and go within.  Take a deep breath and release.  Now imagine one of your goals in your minds eye.  See it clearly.  Don’t think.  See.

Now decide to have your goal.  See yourself having it and what it would take to have it.  Notice your competing thoughts or pictures.  Acknowledge any discomfort, fear or resistance to manifesting this goal.  Now take deep breath and release the fear knowing it is a natural reaction to change and does not mean you can’t. Notice the fear in the first chakra and decide to engage the fear to find your courage.   Continue until you find the resolve and experience the courage to manifest your goal.

Best wishes on achieving your goals,

Kay

Stay the Course!

dreamstimefree_roadI just have to tell you Susan’s story because it is so familiar and I see it so often.  Susan is an amazingly capable professional working for a large national organization.  In recent years she began to feel dissatisfied with her work not because there was anything wrong with it but more that she was ready for new challenges and to move closer to her next dream job.

No Idea!

With that in mind Susan contacted me to assist her with this transition.  She had no idea where or what that dream job was.   I guided through intuitive meditation to begin to imagine this dream job.  All the thinking and logic in the world was not working for her so an intuitive approach seemed right to her.

Her Vision

Susan did not know the exact job that she wanted but she was very clear about components of the job, the talents she wanted to use and new areas of growth and challenge.  With that awareness I guided her in meditation regularly as a way of manifesting this vision.

Creating A Plan

A week or so after she created her vision she decided a move to Denver was part of her vision.  She reached out to some contacts in that area telling them of her interested in finding a new job in the Denver area and could they help.  In a very short time, maybe a week or two, she received a call for an interview for a position that far exceeded her expectations.  Suddenly she was very uncertain.  Was this too big a step?  Was it the right step?

Don’t Question

This next part is important and a critical intuitive principle.  Don’t answer these questions!  Susan would just make herself crazy logically arguing one side or another.  I advised Susan to go back into meditation and focus on her original vision.  Seeing this vision in her minds eye is calming and brings her goals into perspective.  In this way the answers are obvious.  There are no competing options.

Manifesting

Susan is in Denver interviewing as one step has led to another without any effort on her part.  Susan described this morning, “It is as if my vision is simply unfolding in front of my very eyes.  It is scary and wonderful at the same time.”

Intuitive Exercise

The intuitive technique I worked with Susan is simple.  Go into meditation so that you can become quiet, stop thinking and open to your inner voice and intuition.  Visualize a goal you would like to manifest.  Don’t think.  See the goal in your minds eye.   Take a deep breath.  Now let that goal manifest.  Clear seeing is the key.

Best wishes on your success.

Its Not A Miracle!

kay

When I was growing up, I loved the idea of a miracle. My favorite saying was, “It’s a miracle!” I sought out opportunities to find a miracle big or small. Now I don’t subscribe to the idea very much. So what happened between then and now? I learned that those so-called miracles were actually created by us. A miracle used to be a magical idea because I believed that something outside of all of us created it – something God like. Well, I have no argument with God but I am fully aware that we have the free will to create or not create at our choosing.

When we have a strong vision, a sense of determination and the belief that it can happen it does. We call something a miracle when we don’t recognize our part in creating it. How can we become more capable creators when we don’t recognize our creations?

It is easy to take credit for creations that take sweat and tears, effort and exhaustion. We are less willing to recognize our creative role when we something manifests out of sheer vision and will without all the physical effort. That is a very limited perspective on our ability to create and our awareness of ourselves.

One of my clients called this morning to tell me how incredibly overjoyed she was at her success in creating exactly what she wanted professionally. She was fully aware that she was the creator of the miracle. It was a miracle to her because a few short months ago she could not imagine creating a career step from a well-paying high level corporate job that she hated to being a professor at the university of her choosing and in demand as a speaker that included her passion for travel. A few months ago she had more reasons for why it could not happen.

This woman decided to try the techniques I teach in this blog all the time. She created a vision of her success; decided it was happening now (not in the future) and took one step at a time toward her vision. It’s a miracle! Not that it happened but that she changed her thinking to realize she was the creator of her reality. When she decided that she changed her reality from creating out of fear to creating the reality, she truly wanted.

Here is the Intuitive Exercise she used: Find quiet time each day. Write your vision of your success. Notice your limits and fears but disregard them. Pay attention and focus on your vision every day. Every day let go of whatever competing concepts that you have. Be determined. Take steps.

Meditation is a good technique for visualizing your success. I invite you to join an online meditation each Monday.

Intuition + focus + energy = success

dv1990098

We have all heard about the power of visualization. This is not a new concept and can be a speedy way to achieve the goals you have for yourself and your company. As a business intuitive, I am aware that my most successful clients are those who have a strong vision of what they want to create. They are clear and certain. I have other clients that have an equally clear vision though they are not as successful. There are many factors I see intuitively that contribute to this, but there is one that is true of all of them.

My most successful clients have a clear vision. They also have a strong focus and determination to have their vision manifest. The second group has an equally strong vision though are not as focused, certain or determined. When I look at this from an intuitive perspective, I see men and women who have the ability to create a mental image picture ( vision) that is exactly what they want to create. It is similar to a drawing, photo or video that you hold in your mind’s eye.

The next step is harnessing and gathering your attention; focus and energy to bring to this vision into reality. Therein lies the difference between these two groups of professionals and business owners. One group brings their energy, focus to activate their vision. This changes it from a mental image picture to a physical reality. The picture is energized.

Sometimes it is easy to energize a vision and sometimes it takes great force. Have you ever heard the term “force of will” or “through force of will”? Both of these terms refer to a person’s ability to focus their life force energy on a vision to transform it into something physical. If I were a physicist, I might explain the effects of energy on a vision in terms one might use to describe quantum physics.

My best counsel on this would be to have a clear vision. This is not always as simple as it may sound. Meditation would help in this regard. Next bring your focus and attention directly on this vision. Do not be distracted. Take steps directed toward your vision. Finally, push yourself through any limits real or imagined. Repeat any of these steps as needed. Most importantly, don’t give up your goals!

Don’t shoot yourself in the foot. It is worth the time to set the energy and your focus before you make that sales call.

Note: Regular meditation makes this easier helping you get into a routine of clearing your space and setting your goals. Online Meditation each Monday www.insightintuitiveconsulting.com For more information.

 

A decision that does not matter!

B0319623Success comes from knowing our vision (goal) and keeping that vision in our minds eye.  As a business intuitive, my clients often ask about one decision or another I refer them back to their vision (goal) and whether this decision will help achieve those goals.  Often we think one decision or the other is critically important loosing site of our vision.

We focus on the next decision when our vision makes us feel as if the changes to get there are too great.  We feel overwhelmed by our vision. It is the magnitude of change it represents that causes us to be distracted.  This is the point where we have to decide whether to stay committed to our vision or create a new one.  Once we decide to commit to our vision then determination and focus are needed to push through the energy to get there.

Achieving goals is not for the faint of heart.  If you have a vision, see it clearly in your mind’s eye.  Don’t think about it.  See it intuitively then focus your time, attention and commitment to achieving that vision. Breathe deeply.  Allow fear.  Allow change.  Achieve your vision.

Spirit, Mind and Screaming Body

j0149029You know the feeling.  You decide to take a big step or take a risk in order to move forward.  You have a clear vision. Intuitively you know it is the best step.  You make the decision.   All of a sudden you break into a cold sweat and a world of doubt washes over you.   Were you wrong?  Was your decision too impulsive? Why do you feel like you just made a big mistake?

From an intuitive perspective everything is happening exactly as you might expect.  When we have a goal, it is by definition something you don’t currently have.  You know that to move from where you are to where you want to be requires getting out of your comfort zone, taking a deep breath and making that decision.  This is how a successful business and successful people operate.  They know what it will take then they just do it.  They don’t let anything talk them out of their vision.

When we decide to get out of our routine, our comfort zone and all that is familiar we are ready to get our goals. This takes vision.  Your intuition holds this vision.  You can imagine and see intuitively exactly what you want.  You create a mental image picture of this in your minds eye then think through all the logical steps to get there.   These are the first two steps and they involve the spirit (the vision) and mind (the plan).

What happens next determines your success. The body and your emotions react to this great idea.  The body does not like change or to be uncomfortable so it starts screaming.  YOU DECIDED WHAT!   SCREAMING…. the cold sweat.  In the end many business and professional decisions are made not intuitively or with any logic but rather how loudly your body screams and resists change or being uncomfortable.  Your emotional reactions to good sound decisions can completely talk you out of taking the steps you really want to take.

Your success depends on your commitment to your vision and focusing on making it happen.  If the discomfort or fear is too great then you will back away from your goals until you feel comfortable again.  Our success is always this choice.

Learning meditation is one way to get through this fight between your vision and the discomfort change creates.  In meditation you learn to quiet the body and release the energy that is in your way.  After meditation you are re-energized and feel more certain.

Finally, take steps to make yourself comfortable physically and emotionally when you are ready to push forward to achieve your success.  It will help you through what can be a challenging time of change.

Best wishes.  Kay

Nothing is impossible!

j0182882
Be determined!

A client called to tell me the miracle she had created.  She was sure I wanted to hear her story as it all began at one of my retreats.  Sarah (not her name) attended an intuitive goals retreat with me two years ago.  One of the concepts I teach in these retreats is an intuitive technique for visualizing what you want then the importance of getting into the energy of what this goal.  For example, if you want to add photography to your graphics arts business then you have to not only visualize how this would look you also have to get back into the energy of photography.  Go to places where those who do photography are, brush up your photographer skills with a class, go to photographer galleries, spend time with photographers, etc.  Start to match the energy of photography.

In this case Sarah wanted to be named a Fellow by her professional organization.  It was a stretch at that point so it was hard for her to imagine it.  She clearly wanted it but was having trouble seeing or visualizing it.  With the support of the retreat curriculum, the attendees and her determination she left with a clear vision and a plan to “get into the energy” of being a Fellow, an elite group of professionals recognized as being at the top of  their field.

Well, two short years later Sarah has been named a Fellow.  She was so thrilled when she called and raved on about the techniques she had learned and used.  I too was thrilled and asked what she did to get into the energy of being a Fellow.  For the past two years she has called and met with as many of the living Fellows as she could find.  She explained that she spent time with each of them getting “to know the energy of being a Fellow”.  What energy level were they?  What was the vibration of someone who is a Fellow?  Sarah began to match the energy she observed and began acting like a Fellow as she saw it to be.

Surprise!  It worked. Sarah will be named a Fellow in April at a ceremony in Texas.   I plan to be there and applaud loudly for her success!

Nothing is impossible.  Whatever can be imagined can be created.

Thoughts manifest – literally

Waiting AloneI just wanted to remind you that what you imagine for yourself manifests exactly as you image it.

One of my clients told me that he wanted two projects before he went on vacation but could not imagine that happening. He had called the morning before he was to leave on vacation complaining that his goal had not manifested, and he was leaving on vacation the next day (Saturday). He seemed to be blaming me.

As it turned out, later that day he got two calls for new projects that would probably start when he returned. His intention was to get two jobs done before his vacation, but that is not what he declared. He had declared two jobs before he went on vacation. That is exactly what he got.

Notice what you imagine. Your universe is manifesting exactly as you imagine it. Literally. If you do not like what you are experiencing then change your thoughts about your business, your goals or what you want. We do not get our goals if we are not clear about what they are.

Best wishes on your success,

Be careful what you pray for….

kay00340kYou will get what you pray for. This may happen gracefully or not so gracefully. I see this happen all the time. It has happened to me. Years ago I was the Director of Services for the largest non-profit. I wanted out. The political energy of my job was so intense I could not relax. The needs of our clients far surpassed our ability to serve them and that was hard, but I could not quit. I was a single mom at that time, and my sense of responsibility kept me in a good paying job. I found myself writing in my journal. I wanted to change jobs. I wanted to start my business. I wrote this every day but I could not take the steps to make it happen. I felt that I needed the regular paycheck. I had a child to take care of. Then I was laid off! How could that happen? I was the best at my job! How could this happen? Then I realized I had prayed and imaged leaving this job. The universe was manifesting around my dream, my desire. I could not or wouldn’t quit so what another option was there? The only way my dream could manifest was not very graceful. I am grateful that I was laid off! I could finally create the business that I wanted.

So be careful what you pray for. I have a client who knows she has to leave her corporate job. No, she wants to leave her corporate job. She is paid well so she cannot just quit. She has not decided exactly what she wants to do next. She feels strongly about leaving and so her whole universe is manifesting around that vision. Good new. Bad news. The bad news is she feels like she is being pushed out of her job. Didn’t she pray for this? She does not have a plan for where she is going next. The universe manifests what we want, but we have to know what that is.

So the message is, notice what you are “praying for” or imaging because it is manifesting.

Best wishes on your success, Kay

Wall Street – Don’t jump on this bandwagon!

https://i0.wp.com/www.huffingtonpost.com/huff-wires/20081007/wall-street/images/74a7c681-8ffd-4e34-b5e0-b090c0a43139.jpg As an intuitive, I am completely amazed by how many add their energy and agreement to something they absolutely DON’T want to happen!

Consider this. Whatever you put your attention on you are helping to create. I’ve told my clients not to add their agreement to the “sky is falling” (the financial sky) because whatever we believe manifests. So why are you helping to manifest financial ruin? The media is grabbing your attention and telling you what to believe.

This is one of the most basic energy, spiritual and intuitive concepts on the planet. Whatever you believe WILL manifest. So you can believe what you are told by the media, your industry, your family or anyone else who wants to scream doom and gloom. The alternative is not to add your energy to this picture. In fact pull your energy out of this agreement. Be like Warren Buffett, think opportunity.

Intuitive Exercise: Take a moment to stop. Sit down. Close your eyes. Quiet your space. Go within. Notice how much you have your attention on the financial problems. Pull your attention and awareness off this picture.

Now start to image what you want for your business. How do you imagine or see your next step? Keeping seeing this in your mind’s eye. Release the energy you feel until you can see your vision of success.

Keep your attention on your business and its success. Take your attention off anyone who is promoting a concept that you do not want to see manifest in your business.

Remember whatever can be imagined is being created.

Best wishes on your success,

Kay

Take A Chance! ! Do something out of the ordinary

RoutineWe are set in our ways. We have our routines. We know what we want and how to get there or so we think. If you are doing the same things each time to create your business, it may be fine, but nothing will change. What you are doing now is creating the business you have now. If you want to take a step up, make a change, increase your revenue, have more fun then business as usual won’t work.

On an intuitive level, we set the energy of our business consciously or unconsciously. The way in which we set the energy determines our success, how much we have to work and whether we enjoy it. So if you want the energy of your business to change or to get the energy going then get out of your routine! Do something out of the ordinary! Change the energy.

The energy of routine, keeping everything the same creates a hold on your business and its ability to grow. Doing something out of the ordinary means getting out of your comfort zone, taking some risks and changing the routines. Try it today, and you will notice the difference. What are you bored with? What are you so used to that you do not even notice any more or even notice if it is working? What are your routines? Change them. What do you know about creating your business? Now change that thinking!

This is not rocket science, but it is so easy to lose ourselves in what is familiar. The bigger the change, the more of an impact it will have on the energy of your business. Be intuitive. Notice where the energy of routine or familiarity has stopped or affected your success. You will see intuitively how unconscious and unaware you have become. Look in one or more aspects of your company, staff, ideas, decor, contacts, etc. Give it a try and let me know what happens.

Best wishes on your success, Kay

Success is 100% Attitude!

angels-baseballThe title of this blog is more than a catchy title. It is the secret to success. Remember the adage “Hold your head high.” As an intuitive, I read the energy of my clients. The most common characteristic of those who are successful is their attitude about success. I have worked with business owners and professionals for over 27 years so I have seen many grow from start-ups to success enterprises. I can tell by looking intuitively at someone whether they will be successful. They set the energy in their space at the vibration of success.

People who are successful don’t take no for an answer. They have certainty. If they are moving down their path and a boulder falls in their way, they do not stop. They climb over it and enjoy the climb. They walk around it and are amused at how simple the solution was.

When we are on the path to success things will happen to encourage us. Simple coincidences are inspiring. On the other hand, we may have experiences that seem to destroy the very thing we are creating. Whether this is, in fact, what is happening depends on our attitude about it. We can decide that our creation is being destroyed, and it will be. We can decide that our creation will not be destroyed, and it will not be. It all depends on how our perspective.

Let’s talk baseball! What does baseball have to do with business? That is another blog but let me tell you a story about attitude and a strong vision. It is a baseball story, but it applies to business.

Tim was playing with a senior men’s baseball league. His team came together during the season and made it to the last game of the playoffs. Everyone was thrilled by the challenge of playing another good team. Tim had a wedding to go to the very weekend of the last game. The team was disappointed because Tim was a good player and an important part of the team. I am a firm believer in the power of our personal vision but when it comes to weddings, there is no way around it. Tim wanted to play the game and he wanted to go to the wedding. The fact that they were scheduled for the same time and the same weekend did not deter him. He stayed focused on his goals. Much to everyone’s surprise the wedding was suddenly moved to another weekend. Tim got his vision. He got to play in the playoffs, and he will be able to attend the wedding.

Tim knew what he wanted. He was certain about his vision. He just didn’t know how to make it happen. That did not matter. He got what he wanted, and it was almost unbelievable except that I know the power of having a clear vision and not believing any thoughts that seem to deter you from your goals. This was not a coincidence.

Not all my clients are success stories. I have a client I like a great deal, but she is easily distracted from her goals. She can have a strong vision but when something comes along that gets in the way she loses her focus. Suddenly her attention is off her goals and on whatever distracted her. She never seems to move forward because of this.

Back to this baseball story. The ability to create the impossible exists in business. Those who are determined get their goals. Stay focused and don’t give up. Allow a miracle.

Allow Fear & Keep Moving Toward Success

????????????????????????????????????????This is a good time to talk about fear! As far as I can tell from experiences with my clients everyone is afraid at one time, or another. Fear of taking a big step, changing directions, moving forward, making a decision, not having control and fear of the unknown.

From an intuitive perspective fear often means you are faced with a great opportunity. Let me explain. When we get to the place of having a clear vision of success everything in our lives, and our business begins to evolve around that vision. If you pay attention, you will be aware of this happening. Suddenly there are a rash of coincidences that favor your vision.

When you have a clear vision (or intention) change begins. Where you are now maybe fine but if you have a goal something has to change for it to manifest. Those changes begin to show aspects of your business that are in the way of your vision and where change is needed. Those changes typically make you personally uncomfortable, or you would have made the changes already. As you change, your concepts about your business also change, and evolve more consistent with your vision. It is an uncomfortable time. It can be scary, and you may experience fear from all that is changing. You are out of your comfort zone, and that is good.

I watch my clients go through this period of business growth and the choices they make. Some become uncomfortable, start to be afraid and crumble. They stop moving forward and decide to stay right where they are. Others recognize the fear, know that it is the result of the steps they are taking, take a deep breath and take even more determined steps toward their vision.

When a business owner has a clear vision, everything starts to change and evolve around that vision. At first it may feel like everything falling apart! Aspects of your business that are not supporting your vision may fall apart because it needs to change as new aspects develop and evolve.

It is a scary and exciting time. Those who are successful don’t run from fear. They take a deep breath and move forward to create their vision. Fear Not!

Best wishes for your success,

Do What Is Important for Success. Avoid Distractions.

  Are you so busy working hard that you find yourself distracted from your goal? This may sound inconsistent, but it is not. If we are working hard doesn’t that mean we are getting our goal? Not necessarily. We work hard 80 hours a week and never achieve our goal when we are just working and don’t have our vision of where we are going.

Having a clear vision in our mind’s eye is the secret to success except that it is not a secret. We are taught to work hard even though it often does not achieve anything other than working hard. Being busy does not achieve goals. I watch people plan their day, have it full and not move one step closer toward to success.

When I began working with Tom he would get up each morning decide what he needed to do, create a plan to do those things and made sure he did them. When asked what his goal was for a particular day he showed me his list. Then I asked him what his goal was for his business, and he told me that. Comparing the two showed his to do list was not created in support of his vision for his company. His list included all the things that he felt had to get done. He was distracted from his vision.

We are not the only ones who create our distractions. Notice how many times in a day someone or something else grabs or demands your attention. Suddenly you are not creating the success of your business. Your attention is now redirected and focused on something else, someone else’s goal. What is the value of this distraction?

From an intuitive perspective, a clear vision of your successful business is vastly more important than any work you do on your business. Try this.

Intuitive exercise. Do this more than once. Do it daily.
Find a quiet place. Close your eyes. Take a deep breath and release whatever tension you are holding. Now imagine, in your mind’s eye, your business as a success. What would that be? How would it look? Do not think! See! Imagine! Use your mind’s eye. Imagine your success in detail. Keep imagining until you can see this clearly. Let go of any uncertainty or confusion.

Whatever you can imagine is exactly what will be created and is being created – unless you have a thought that it won’t. Clear your thinking so you can see your success, and all your thoughts believe what you see. When you are finished open your eyes, take a deep breath and stretch. Repeat this exercise often to keep your vision clear. When things get off track do this exercise again.

Now with a clear vision of your company and its success re-write your plan for the upcoming week. Do not put on your list things that you “should do” unless it helps you achieve your vision of your company. Put first those things that support and are directed at your success. Put last “other” things”. Notice if this makes a difference.

Best wishes on your success, Kay

Visualize Success!

 Your vision of success is more powerful than all the hard work that you do. When we take the time to stop, get out of the energy of working our business then we can see more clearly. We spend so much time on physically creating that we lose sight of our vision.

As an intuitive I am keenly aware of the power of vision, your vision. When we are doing all the right things and our business is moving slowly towards our goal we have to stop and ask. “Why all this effort?”

Effort is the alternative to a clear vision. Seeing, in our mind’s eye, exactly what we want to create, where we want our business to be is the fastest road to success. When we can not see our target clearly in our mind’s eye then, we are not ready. It may be something we want, but we “can’t imagine it”.

When we can’t imagine something happening then it won’t. We can want it to happen but until we can imagine it intuitively, we will be just “wanting” and working and wanting and working.

Intuitive exercise: Take the time to stop. Find a comfortable, quiet place where you can close your eyes and go within. Breathe deeply letting go as your exhale. Repeat until you find yourself letting go of all the energy you are holding in your space. Stop thinking. Thinking is not intuitive. It is logical. It has its place, but this exercise is about being intuitive.

When you feel relaxed and centered with your eyes closed, start to imagine your business as a success. What would that be? How would that look? Open your imagination until you can see the big picture, not the details and not what you have to do to get there. Just imagine and see the target. Where is your business going? What would it look like when it is successful?

Continue and repeat this exercise until you can see it clearly. If you feel like you are unable to see clearly then contact me for a neutral perspective on what is in your way.

Best wishes on your success,

Are your habits and routines killing your success?

Out of your comfort zone?
Out of your comfort zone?

When we decide we want something and set a goal we have decided to change! The only problem with that is we often don’t have the full extent of the change in our mind. Our lives are already filled with what we are experiencing right now. Deciding that we want something new (a goal) means that our life needs to change in some way to make room for this new goal. There is an intuitive way to say this. Your energy is set in a particular way (pattern) based on your life as it is now, your routine and your habits. To create something new means changing this pattern of energy. Sounds simple except that we are comfortable in our routines, and we don’t imagine changing these when we create a goal.

Goals will not manifest if we are “set in our ways” or our energy is set in a particular and inflexible way. That is why people who are willing to take risks are more successful. They are willing to go through a period of being uncomfortable. They are willing to get out of their comfort zone. They are willing to allow the energy change to an unknown or unexpected. When we are willing to allow change and a period of being uncomfortable with our energy changing then we are ready for greater success.

Try this intuitive exercise. Find a time and place to be quiet. Close your eyes and go within. Begin to imagine one of your goals. Allow yourself to be aware of how your life, routines and habits will need to change to make room for this goal. Don’t think! Imagine. Be intuitive. This is not logical. Allow your inner self to be heard. Notice what part of your goal makes you uncomfortable. Notice any our resistance to change.

Come out of this meditation and write your goal. Now write how things might change as you manifest this goal. Decide if you are ready for these changes and your goal to happen

Begin today. Your next step is to notice your habits, routines or patterns and change something. Get out of at least one routine. Notice how easy it is for you to allow change. This is a measure of your ability to succeed.

Best wishes on your success,

Tiger & Phelps used the same technique to succeed – Visualize

j01490291I love watching athletes and others who know the power of having a strong, clear vision of their “target.” They know how to create success. We think it is because of their hard work. I would say it is because they know how to visualize. This truly is “The Secret” except it has never been a secret. It is an intuitive ability to see clearly in your mind’s eye. How many times and how many ways can this truth be stated? The power of visualization has been known and stated since the writings of the ancient philosophers then restated by theologians, educators, intuitives, physicians, business experts and others. If you can see clearly strongly in your mind’s eye whatever it is that you want to experience it will manifest – unless you decide that it won’t.

I mentioned this strange truth in yesterday’s posting. Your thoughts are literally translated into your reality. Don’t think about this just take a moment to notice and you will see this in your own life.

After you read this post do the following exercise then notice the outcome. Take time today to stop everything that you are doing. Find a quiet comfortable place where you can close your eyes and go within. Closing the eyes helps you from engaging your analyzer. In this exercise you will try not to think. In this exercise you want to engage your imagination.

Take a deep breath. Relax. Start to put your attention on something you would like to have happen or experience this week OR bring to mind something you have going on this week and begin to imagine how you would like it to go and how you would like to experience it.

Continue to imagine. See it in your mind’s eye. Keep changing what you can imagine until you get to the vision of this experience that is exactly as you would like it to be. Sounds simple but it may not be depending on the thoughts, emotions and experiences you have about this experience.

For example, if you want to make a sale, but you called 50 companies last week and they all hung up on you it is hard to imagine a different outcome when you imagine making calls again tomorrow. This is where you learn about your ability to change energy. All the energy in your space says that this weeks calls will go no better than last weeks calls. Thinking about it will change nothing but if you can use this exercise to imagine in your mind’s eye a different outcome then it will. To imagine a different outcome you will have to let go of and release the energy generated by the last 50 calls. You have to bring your attention, awareness and your energy into present time. Right here. Right now. What do you want to experience now? Change it from what you experienced before. Change the energy and your perspective.

There are many intuitive techniques that help us clear our thoughts, emotions and ideas so that we are in a new place creating in present time rather than recreating on the energies of the past.

The extent to which we can imagine or see clearly in our mind’s eye determines our ability to create or not create this thought in reality.

Practice this. Notice. Be aware. It’s like having the magical answer! Now it is up to you. Have a great day!

Best wishes on your success, Kay
