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.

When you cannot decide!

swirl blue purple orange croppedOne of the best times to use your intuition is when you cannot decide, the answers you are looking for are not obvious or your find yourself successfully defending both sides of your own argument!  You have been thinking, discussing it with others and still you cannot tell the right way to go or which decision to make.  This is the time to stop thinking!  Sometimes logic cannot provide our answers either because we are not neutral to the issue, our own thoughts and emotions cloud our thinking.  Sometimes we cannot decide because of the pressures from other people or competing interests.

I was on the way back from a salon at the home of a Silicon Valley executive and his wife.  My friend had run into one of her clients at the salon last month and again this day.  She was very confused how she should interact with this very high profile client in this informal and somewhat personal event.  I listened as she explained all the options she could think of.  It was clearly a professional challenge that could have huge financial impact.  She was confused, conflicted and worried.  What if she approaches him the wrong way?  What if she reads his communication incorrectly?  What if….  She was wearing herself out.

A client of mine was in a similar state of confusion.  She is transitioning in her career, sees a number of choices, can argue each of them convincingly only to confuse herself more.  She thought, argued, discussed all to no avail.  She could not decide and could not find a logical solution.  This was creating great stress.

These scenarios are very common.  The specifics may be different but each of us has been in a situation where all the logic in the world was not going to give us the answer.  For me, as a business intuitive, answers to these situations are easily found by opening to our intuition.   Using intuition is a way of gaining perspective and finding enough separation to see more clearly.

Here is a simple intuitive exercise you can use when you are confused or cannot decide.

  • Find a time and place to sit and quiet yourself.
  • Close your eyes, breathe deeply and begin to release all the effort you are experiencing.  Relax and release.
  • Bring your attention and your awareness inward, behind your eyes.  Breathe deeply and release.
  • Begin to clear your mind.  Try to stop thinking so that you can open to your intuition.
  • Simply open your awareness.  Begin to notice, see, listen and know intuitively.
  • Once you are quiet, imagine seeing a symbol out in front of you.  See it or imagine it with your minds eye .  I suggest a rose but any symbol will work.
  • Now imagine placing your question in that symbol.  This keeps your from thinking.
  • Without thinking open to what you see, hear and know.

If you are able to follow these steps you will get your answer and you will know.

Why is this happening to me?

B0319623Do you find your time taken with responding to one thing after another?  Do you feel that stuff keeps happening to you and you wonder what is next? Who is creating all of this?  Successful business owners and professionals know this well.

As a business intuitive I offer an intuitive perspective.  We each create our own reality and can create whatever we want.   When we don’t create then things will keep happening.  It is our choice to create our reality or just experience what’s out there.

I know this is hard to wrap your head around because our whole lives we have been taught to see life from an atheist perspective.  From this perspective everything that exists is, for the most part, beyond our control.  To be successful a change in thinking and perspective is required.  Success happens when we embrace being the creator of our reality.

When we turn our heads around and change our thinking we can change everything.  You can begin by imaging how you would create your life if you understood yourself to be the creator.  A creator, what did you have in mind?   I don’t mean the fantasies we all have.  The real question is what would you like to be, do and have.

Try the following intuitive exercise to experience yourself as a creator.  If this works for you then use it for other aspects of your life.

Intuitive Exercise: Find a quiet place and take the time to go within.  Meditation is a great way to do this. A quiet space of contemplation will do.

Close your eyes and be aware of gathering your attention and your awareness onto yourself. Breathe and relax.

Now be aware of one issue in your life that is not working for you.  Stop thinking about it and instead imagine your preferred solution or vision of this issue.  Imagine it in your minds-eye.  Imagine seeing the outcome in a new way?

Do not think of solutions.  Just imagine a different scenario.  See it intuitively.   Keep imagining until you can clearly see your preferred vision of the situation.

In this process you will notice thoughts, concepts and emotions you have and can let go of in order for your preferred vision to take hold.  Breathe and release.

Keep looking, breathing and imaging until you see it clearly.  When you can see the situation in the way you would like it play out then your meditation is done!  Your problem has been solved.  Watch for the evidence of this with great enthusiasm.

If you were unable to see or imagine you preferred outcome there is energy in you about the issue.  Let me know if you would like further insight into this.

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.

Shooting yourself in the foot!

Are you ready to make that phone call?
Are you ready to make that call?

Are you ready to make that phone call? Are you ready to make that call? As a business intuitive, I learn a great deal from my clients and sometimes I sigh when I see the mistakes business owners make. It is not because they don’t know better. These mistakes happen when they are not aware of what is going on within them at the time. All of us, business owners or not, become the effect of the energy of our life experiences. This then affects our work. We all have thoughts or mental image pictures that are re-stimulated and cause us to react in automatic and unconscious ways that may not serve us well. These are the times when we shoot ourselves in the foot.

Yesterday I was sitting in the office of one of my clients as he was making an important phone call to a potential client. My role was to be intuitive and observe this communication. My client, Fred (not his real name), was talking to a potential client by phone, discussing the scope of work, his fees, the needs of the project, etc. His client was a production company new at producing a web-based video and working with minors as talent. I saw intuitively that my client was not in the space to have this conversation. He had energy in this space that set the tone before he even made a phone call. His energy was set to educate. This was an entirely different space from developing a contract to provide talent for a production, which was the goal of a phone call.

I watched as Fred, clearly frustrated with this new producer, slowly but surely created an energy divide between himself and his potential client. This was not what he intended to do. The conversation ended with my client thinking, and conveying unconsciously that the production company did not know what they were doing. In this space, Fred did not convey how he could help them complete their project. He did not hear the producer’s concerns about the cost of his services, etc. The communication between the two was not accomplishing the goals for either side. In the end, the production company promised to get back to Fred at the end the day and they never did.

As an intuitive, I see this happen all the time. Quite simply Fred responded through his thoughts and feelings and not being focused on the goal for this conversation. This is more common than you would think. I know all of you are thinking that you would never do that or let that happen when, in fact, it happens all the time simply because we are not aware.

In working with business owners and professionals, I recommend a simple, intuitive exercise that raises your awareness. This exercise is designed for you to clear your thinking and the energy in your space before you make a call. I suggest this so that you don’t automatically and unconsciously talk through pictures, thoughts or energy in your space. We have all done this then thought, “I didn’t mean to say that.”

The second part of this intuitive exercise is taking the time to focus on your plan for the call. In this way, you create a clear mental image picture that guides your conversation to the outcome you are looking for.

Intuitive Exercise Before making that phone call close your door. Sit down. Take a deep breath. Close your eyes. Bring all your attention and awareness onto yourself. Notice how you are doing. Let go of whatever is on your mind. Decide how you want to be in the meeting. How do you want your potential client to experience you? What do you want to happen in this call? Begin to imagine the conversation in your mind’s eye. See it intuitively out in front of you. Don’t think! See it! Imagine it! When you can see or imagine this conversation exactly as you would like then you are ready. This could take five minutes, or an hour depending on how much energy you have about the call. How clear you are about the purpose of the call, how much energy you have in your space to clear and what other things are on your mind?

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.

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.

The trinity and business ownership

dreamstimefree_2565706 It may seem like a strange concept but trust me it works.   Successful business owners have a balance between their body, mind and spirit.  It works something like this.   One aspect of a business owner is as a visionary with a creative idea and the undeniable urge to see this vision manifested.   This brings out the the organizer side of the business owner.  The organizer side takes this vision, adds color, texture, and  has a passion to make it a reality.  The organizer grounds our business in a physical reality.  The organizer, or our analytical side, creates the structure for our vision.  Finally, there is the do-er side of us.  This is the side of the business owner that knows how to provide the product or service of our business.

These three aspects of a business owner are familiar to each of us.  When we are able to move easily between these three aspects of ourselves then our business has the chance to thrive.   When we are stuck in one or the other aspects then we are out of balance and, not surprising, so is our business.  From an intuitive perspective our business is a physical manifestation of who we are.  The more we know about ourselves the more we know about our business.  Notice for yourself.  Can you move easily between each of these three parts?  Are you more comfortable as the visionary and neglect the doer side?  Perhaps you are comfortable but have lost the passion of the visionary.  Try the intuitive exercise below to get your business back in balance and moving toward greater success.

Intuitive Exercise:  Find a quiet place to sit, close your eyes and quiet your body.  Take a deep breath.  Bring your attention and awareness within you.  Imagine (or see in your minds eye) three roses about 6 inches in front of you.  Each rose represents one of the three aspects described above.  Look intuitively at each rose.  What do you notice about these three roses?  Is one bigger than the others?  Is the vibration of each rose the same or different?  Don’t think or analyze.  This is an intuitive exercise. Notice more.  Now imagine each rose as vibrant and energized.  When you can see this balance your meditation is complete.

What is wrong with rose colored glasses?

dreamstimefree_36802811 The recent Monday Meditation was very enlightening.   We focused on enjoying our business and enjoying our life.  What is not to like about this?  Everyone was excited by the possibilities.  In reality meditating with this in mind was not as easy as everyone imagined.

We are not an island meaning that whatever is going on around us affects us.   Actually it affects us until we decide NOT to become or match the energy.  The US is at war in Iraq and Afghanistan.  It seems far away.  Intuitively it does affect us.  We have thoughts and feeling about these wars and others including Gaza.  We have reactions to the world situation as a whole.  The media is constantly pushing us to react one way or another.  This affects us.  We become more serious and are aware of the problem.  This bleeds over to other aspect of our lives including our business.  Suddenly our business is serious and we have problems to solve.

Meditation is a way to stop matching or being the effect of one event or another.  Meditation is a way to find the quiet space within and become aware of what is affecting us.  We gain perspective. Not only do we  become aware we can change our energy, our perspective and ultimately our lives and our business.  A simple change in our energy can change everything.

In this Monday Meditation everyone changed their perspective, their vision and ultimately their energy to enjoying their business and their life.   The result of this may be a period of discomfort.  If we are routinely serious or sensitive to  solving a problem then simply deciding to enjoy has ramifications.  Ramifications that are well worth having.

Try this intuitive meditation:  Take 3o minutes to one hour to sit quietly, close your eyes, focus your attention and awareness on yourself.  Breathe often.  Become aware of what is on your mind.  Clear your thinking.  Clear your mind. Finally begin to imagine enjoying your business and your life.  Keep imagining until you can see this in your minds eye.  It is something we all want but seeing it  and imagining it happening requires using your intuition.  Keep imagining until you can see it clearly.  When you can see joy in your minds eye then you will experience in your life.

Enjoy!  Kay

Firewalking, success and focus!

Recently several of my clients attended a workshop on fire walking.  FIREWALKING!   They were amazed at what they were able to do.   It was beyond belief and beyond what they ever imagined was possible.  Several said they used the intuitive tools to achieve their goal to fire walk including being centered, focused and having a clear vision of their goal.

As the story goes they went to try fire walking.  Why would they do this?  All of them were at a point in their professional career where they wanted to take a big step forward.   They were ready for anything that would inspire the power and strength within to take that step.

They decided go to the workshop.  Check it out.  Promising themselves that they may or may not fire walk.  They wanted to make sure they gave themselves a way out.

In the end they not only walked on hot coals, they also broke arrows pointed in their throat and even bent rebar in the same way.   To accomplish these feats they were reminded to focus on the goal (break the arrow, bend the rebar and get to the other side of the coals).  When they faltered the instructor reminded them not to focus on their fears but on their goals.

I could not have said it better.  Nothing is impossible.  Whatever can be imagined can be created.

So don’t try this at home but if you would like to try fire walking my clients recommend Sundoor.com.

Running a business is scary!

A time to go within
A time to go within

OK so you own a business. Have you noticed that this is a journey in self-awareness? As a business intuitive one of my main roles is to work with business owners when they hit the wall! Every successful business owner experiences this periodically. From my intuitive perspective this is one of the best times for a business to take a step towards more success if the owner is willing to realize that their own personal limits are affecting their business. This may not always be logical but it is very spiritual and intuitive. From my experience in working with business owners I can tell those who will be successful. Half the clients I work with as a business intuitive call me when they are scared about their business succeeding or frustrated that it is not growing. I look at intuitively are the concepts they have about themselves and their business. I also look at the emotional charge on these concepts. If we acknowledge that our business is a physical manifestation of who we are then it is an easy transition from “My business is stuck” to “I am stuck”. What is not always apparent is what we are stuck on. Often the concepts and energies that are affecting us are very old or are buried deep in our space. To get the energy moving in our business often means getting the energy moving in our personal space. The owner of hedge fund found his fear of loosing his business related to his fear of being alone. Real estate investor hit the wall when she realized she could not let people be on her side and related this to hiding others from an alcoholic parent. A business consultant hit the wall when the grief of a 10-year-old divorce was re-stimulated. A high fashion model hit the wall because her parents feared loosing her. The list goes on. It is surprising how easy it is to recognize and move out of these fears but it does take the courage of self-awareness, determination and amusement. Yes, amusement. That is the top of another blog. Businesses that succeed include those where we are willing to have a personal journey to discover what limits our success. We may be aware of some of these concepts and some are unconscious and have an emotional charge. Taking the time to realize these concepts and clear the energy charge on these pictures will result in the energy moving in our business. When you hit the wall try this exercise. If all else fails don’t be afraid to get an intuitive consultation to see what’s within you that is affecting your success. Intuitive Exercise (meditation) Find a time when you can sit quietly for a while. Close our eyes. Breathe deeply and often. Let go of tension when you exhale. Imagine bringing all your attention and awareness in around you. Bring your attention off of your business, your family, and your life and focus your attention within. Breathe! Continue until you feel like you are centered in present time. Most importantly do not think! In this exercise you are going to open to your intuition so relax and image in your minds eye, visualize a symbol for your business. See it out in front of you. We do this so that you don’t think and open to your intuition. If you cannot see a symbol for your business pretend to. The next step is important. You will want to pay attention to the very first thing that comes to mind. Do not require or expect that it is logical. Logic will alter the response. Your intuition is the first response. The next immediate thought is analytical and not true. Relax. Focus within. See the symbol of your business or goal in front of you. Now ask silently the question you have. Notice your first fleeting impression. There is your answer. Enjoy your personal journey and your business success.

Meditate for Success!

dv1990098
Have a clear vision!

Blog – Focus and Clarity of Vision

There is a direct correlation between the clarity of vision and the success of a business.  What more can I say?   How can I convince you?  As a Business Intuitive I can tell within one minute of talking to a business owner how successful they are and will be.  Successful business owners and professionals have a VERY clear vision without doubt or uncertainty.  They hold that vision in their minds eye.

I can see that vision intuitively.  Others also see it perhaps unconsciously and react to what they perceive exactly as the owner sees it.  If the business vision is unclear or uncertain then others sense that and react accordingly.  When a business has a strong and clear vision that is also sensed and we react to their product or service with great expectation.

It begins with you, the professional or business owner.  As a business intuitive in practice for over 28 years I have one simple though not easy recommendation.  Meditate!  Meditate to find that clear vision and focus.   I know the technique below is simple.  I also know it is not easy because most business owners don’t do it which explains the success rate of businesses.

People most often say, “I am too busy to meditate.”  My response is, “If you take the time to meditate on your vision you won’t have to work so hard.”   You can create in two ways.  You can work really really hard and you may or may not be successful or you can take the time to have a clear vision (and work hard if you enjoy this) to create your success.

Try this Intuitive Exercise and Meditation and see what happens.

The clearer your vision the more successful you become.   Meditate first thing before you begin your day.  Take the time that you need for each these steps.  It will make all the difference.
•    Have a comfortable quiet place to sit down
•    Close your eyes.  Take a deep breath and release.
•    Bring your attention and awareness into present time by focusing on yourself,
•    Take a deep breath and release and let go of the thoughts and energy you are holding from yesterday or the day before.
•    Bring into focus a clear vision of your day, your week, etc.  Use your imagination not your logic.
•    Let go of the demand energy or to do list.
•    Set your energy and your space to the vibration you want to be for the day.

This takes 10 minutes to an hour.  It varies on how clear your space is and how focused you are.  Let me know your questions or comments about this modified meditation.

This is not only good for your body and soul it is good for your business and professional success.

Are you sabotaging your sales?

Be mindful in sales!

Just the other day I had an interesting experience with someone selling me advertising time. I want to begin by saying that I WANTED to buy what he was selling but he wouldn’t let me.  Let me tell you this very common story.

Fred called just when I was running out the door to an appointment.  He wanted my company to buy radio-advertising time.  It was an interesting campaign that married my company to one of my favorite charities.  I was sold!  The price was right.  The cause was right and my company could show support for something I value.  Win. Win. Win.  Only one problem –Fred.

Let me describe what I saw as a business intuitive when I interacted with Fred.  Everyone is intuitive including our potential customers so I am sure everyone he called that morning had the same experienced though they may not have been conscious of it.

When Fred called it was clear that I was the one hundredth person he had called in the last 10 minutes.  He spoke fast. He was not communicating with me. I was just there to listen to his pitch.  Because I wanted what he was selling I tried to engage him in a real communication.  He was in the energy of giving his pitch, waiting for a yes or no and moving on.  I felt that.  I saw that.  Most people would have been turned off by this and never really “heard” about his offer.

But let’s take it further because I did want to buy what he was selling. I was on the way out the door so I asked Fred to email me the information, contract, schedule for ads, etc.   His energy immediately changed to “She is not going to buy this ad time.”   He was done with me.  Politely he took my email address and hung up.  In the end he did not email me the information. He lost a sale and I lost a good advertising option.

In this situation, Fred was putting out the energy and the pictures of failure.  He was going through the motions but his thoughts (“pictures” in his aura) were like neon signs to anyone he called, “I don’t expect you to buy what I am selling.”  The potential client “sees” these pictures intuitively but maybe not consciously.  Fred’s energy and his pictures create an unconscious and automatic reaction in the space (aura) of the person he is talking to, “I’m not buying what you are selling.”  This happens all the time!  We sabotage our own sales!

Let me give you an intuitive exercise you can use so that you increase your sales rather than sabotage your sales.  After you do this exercise look intuitively at the people who do sales for you.  Notice the pictures they have in their aura that supports or interferes with their sales.

Intuitive Exercise:  To be done before you make a call, meet with a potential customer, etc.

Take the time to stop.  Sit down in a quiet place if possible.  Take a deep breath and relax.  Begin to quiet your space.   Imagine calling back all your energy, attention and awareness from everywhere – last week, this morning’s meeting, tomorrow’s trip, etc.   Bring your attention into present time, the present moment.

When you feel quiet and present bring your attention into the center of your head and behind your eyes.  Notice yourself.  How are you doing?  What will the person you talk to experience from you?  The rush of your day?  Your resistance to making this contact?  The disappointment of your last contact?   Begin to change your space.  Be conscious and aware of how you want your customer to experience you intuitively.  If you had a fight with someone, clear that and any other energy that is “hanging” in your space (aura). You know what you are going to say but what are they going to experience intuitively from you.

Begin to imagine and see in your minds eye  (your eyes closed) the sales call or meeting you are about to conduct.  Notice your thoughts about this.   Begin to release or let go of any competing thoughts, ideas, emotions, etc.  Let go of any past time experiences that interfere with you imagining or seeing successful contacts.

Do not make a call or meet with potential clients until YOU can see clearly the possibility of making the sale.  Your clients or customers are intuitive.  They will pick up on any doubt or thoughts that you have.  Make sure they are picking up on thoughts that support a sale versus thoughts that would sabotage your sale.

When you have set your space (aura) the way you want your customer to experience you and you can see a successful sale in your minds eye exactly as you would like it to happen then you are ready to meet with your potential customer.

There are more intuitive steps but this is a good start.  Have a great day and let me know how your sales go!

Few business owners are creating their success… are you one of them!

kay00340k

I am amazed at how many business owners and professionals give little regard to creating their success. Yes indeed. We think we are working to create our success but is that the case? When we get up and get busy we may get a lot done or not. Being busy, having a lot to do has little to do with the success. Being busy is simply being busy.

Our success is created each day by the vision we have of our success and having that clearly in our minds eye before we begin each day. In this way we can see how to spend our day and to move toward this vision. Doing this for each activity planned for the day moves us toward our goals. What is my vision of success and how can I set this meeting, phone call, project to accomplish my goals? This is a way of being conscious and aware of our ability to create our reality rather than just go through whatever reality we are in.

I attended a Board Meeting last night. Fortunately I had time before the meeting to take the time to meditate on the meeting, what was my goal or vision for participating in this meeting, how can attending this meeting help me in my business and what was my goalas a Board Member supporting this business organization. I was ready. When I got to the meeting I noticed intuitively that a couple other board members had also taken the time to focus their energy and create their vision and goals for this meeting. They were ready. That felt good to me as a participant. Several others had not. They were distracted, unfocused and not on the same page. I noticed that the meeting went well for me because my goal did not depend on others. It was my vision and it manifested.

An Aboriginal tribe believes in song lines. They believe that the world does not exist and that we create it with our song. So before they get up each morning they sing their song to create their day. They believe that if you get up, do not sing your song and the world still exists then you are in someone else’s song.

The power of a clear vision is unmistakable. Clear vision is not thinking. It is seeing intuitively, in your minds eye in the same way you imagine something. Take the time today or right now to try the following exercise.

Intuitive Exercise: Take a few minutes to sit quietly. Perhaps close your eyes. Take a deep breath and relax. Collect up your attention and your awareness so that you are present. Bring into your awareness your vision of your company, your day, the next meeting or whatever you would like to visualize. Start to image or see in your minds eye the activity exactly as you would like to image it happening. See it out in front of you. Don’t think. See. Imagine. Keep seeing until you can imagine it happening exactly as you would like. You may have to let go of competing thoughts or energies. Deep breathe. Release. If you cannot see it then it can not manifest. Repeat this exercise as often as necessary until you have a clear vision.

Do this each day. Do this before an important meeting, phone call, etc.
Share your stories about the outcomes of visualizing.

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,

Limited Thinking Gets In Our Way

Can you imagine winning?
Can you imagine winning?

In my work with business owners and professionals I learned that the single most common reason for not getting a goal is not seeing it happening, or only see it happening one way. To be successful, we have to know what we want, see it clearly on our mind’s eye, create a plan to get there AND allow a miracle. A miracle is the unexpected and something that “comes out of the blue.”

One of my clients was a successful Creative Director for an innovative Silicon Valley company. He recently decided to move on and create his own company. As with any new company development takes a planning, courage and a strong vision. He has all of that, AND he is in his own way.

Phil has a clear vision of his company. He has a great plan on how to start his vision. His downfall is his thinking about what has to happen to get clients, working capital and good staff. When I gave him an intuitive consultation recently, I saw business coming to him from four different directions that he might consider unexpected and out of the blue, opportunities he could not imagine happening. He was convinced there was only one way. He was unmovable. He was stuck. In his mind, it is going to take a lot of time to get his business going. I could see clearly, intuitively that was not the case. Phil will create his business exactly as he can imagine, pushing away other possibilities that are literally standing at his door. He can’t see them. His thinking is making him not only blind but also turning away from opportunities. Ah, free will …..

Another client is a filmmaker. She is filming an exciting project. In the midst of filming she decided that the project was not working. Sue was going to abandon the film before it was completed. Sue called knowing that she was reacting to something that she could not put her finger on. She felt she had lost her vision and the reason she was making this film in the first place. Sounds profound but it is a simple matter from an intuitive perspective. I saw intuitively bringing together her passion for travel, speaking other languages and filmmaking. I saw a worldwide interest in her film from thousands of people involved in the subject of the film. I saw support from hundreds of organizations willing to give time and resources to the project. Ultimately it depends on what Sue can imagine as possible. It does not matter if there are thousands of people and hundreds of organizations willing to support her; if she can’t imagine it then she is not aware that they are there. She does not see them.

So often we are limited by what we can imagine for ourselves. We create our own limits when we “can’t imagine it”. What limits do you imagine? It is important to know because your thinking and what you imagine creates what you experience.

Intuitive exercise: Take time and find a quiet place. Relax. Close your eyes. Notice a project or goal you want to manifest. See it clearly in your mind’s eye. Do not think. Begin to see or imagine in your mind’s eye. Imagine how it will manifest, how it is possible. Now open your awareness to other possibilities. What is “beyond your imagination?” Open your intuition. Allow other possibilities.

Thinking brings us one set of possibilities. Seeing intuitively offers other possibilities that are not logical. To be successful allow both.

Best wishes on your success!

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,

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
