Hello Everyone on the 29th of March 2010.
I wanted to have a chat with you today around women, self-esteem and career. The reason I am bringing this up that 3 women in my connection have been faced with one of these 3 issues today:
• Had gone from a corporate position to Solo-Business Entrepreneur
• Was going from working at home as a Mum to paid employment outside the home after a number if years out of the work-force.
• Was going from the 5 figure income in an already established Solo-Business to a 6 figure income.
Now all these women were faced in this with feeling ‘stuck’ and not able to move forward. They felt demoralised and petrified despite how ‘right’ the decision to move forward is for them. Why did they feel this way? Because the next step they had taken or were attempting to take felt so confronting. In short they were all ‘cowering’ away in fear because they felt so overwhelmed with the prospect of the next step, what it meant, what they might have to do to get it all going and how to do it.
What I noticed was a common thread of thought as I worked with each woman. That thought was ‘Can I do this?’ I questioned why they thought this. The answer was ‘I don’t believe in myself’. I then asked ‘Where does this belief come from?’ The answer came ‘because I’m not good enough’!!! I went ‘Aha that’s it’!!!!
What I see happen for so many women is they get a glimpse of what their next step in life is. Then they set about actioning it. But their lack of belief in themselves steps in and paralyses them from taking further action.
Has this ever happened to you? You are faced with the next phase of your life, you know you need to take action but the ‘fear monster’ arrives and causes you to feel paralysed and you can’t see the way forward?
When you think thoughts that scare yourself like ‘I can’t do this. I don’t have what it takes. I’m not good enough’ it switches your mind off from receiving the guidance from ‘The Light’. This core belief of ‘Not Good Enough’ steps in out of your control and all of a sudden what seemed so ‘right’ seems so difficult and overwhelming. How many women do you know that spends nearly all their time proving how ‘Not Good Enough’ they are? Sabotaging career change, limiting income received, limiting how much income is their due and stalling employment opportunities to name but a few.
When you made your original decision to take this next step it felt ‘right’ for you, so trust this. But what it does is bring to the surface of your mind the very energy block that is stopping you from living your next bout of magnificence on earth. So you are pinched off from the very source or plan that can guide you perfectly to materalise this next phase perfectly.
For example in the first case this client had recriminated about her decision to change direction because she felt so overwhelmed with the core issues this step had brought up in her that she had thrown herself into the pit of despair which only caused her to feel more and more stuck and ‘out of The Light’. Being out of ‘The Light’ caused her to feel like her life wasn’t thriving. Which it wasn’t because she wasn’t in ‘The Light’.
In the second example this Mum knew she needed to get paid employment. She really wanted to take this step. But the low self-esteem issues it was bringing up for her was stopping her from making one simple phone call to the employment agency to get her process begun. This lack of momentum and emotional paralysis was causing her to feel even worse about herself and causing her to stall even more.
In the third example this client was scared to take the leap in case she failed. So her fear of not making the leap successfully (in case it proved she wasn’t good enough) was preventing her from taking the leap and finding ‘the way’ forward to make this leap successfully.
Each women was paralysed because of her mindset and mindset only. That is all. Therefore she has total power to change her reality and get ahead.
So what did I recommend for each woman? Well this is it:
• Firstly ‘get’ that it is self-talk and what you choose to think and feel about yourself that is stopping you from getting ahead in life with simple ease and grace.
• Secondly change that self-talk to something that allows ‘The Light’ to shine. So statements like ‘I am The Best’, ‘I am All Good’, ‘I am Perfect’ or ‘Life delivers me on The Best’ or ‘I choose All Good’ or ‘I live in Perfect’ are much better thoughts to think for they allow you to stop scaring yourself and ‘see’ the way ahead to success.
• Thirdly, persist. Be diligent with the new thinking for it will turn your experience around.
The real benefit to thinking and feeling different is that it opens up a whole new path and plan that you can ACTION AND FOLLOW. So this isn’t about thinking and feeling in a new way and nothing changes in behaviour. No. It is about allowing ‘The Light’ to come through and work it’s magic through you to shift you and your life in a new direction.
So your mind is open to a new way that then opens up new opportunities in your life.
It stops you scaring yourself into inaction. Simple at that. The action plan is all there for you. For it is all programmed into your Spirit. You just need to ‘let go’ and get out of your own way in your mind. It is as simple at that!!!!
Why does this new way work so miraculously? Because you are actually using your mind as an instrument to align your thinking with the sheer magnificence of your Spirit. Your Spirit is the foundation of who you are. It is your authentic self. So thinking as your Spirit rather than thinking any old human way opens up your life to your authentic Spirit-path. So you have magic here for you.
So be willing to surrender to ‘The Light’ of your, which is your Spirit and your Spirit will take perfect care of you.
Now what I have noticed with my clients is that they have become so caught in thinking in a way that pinches you off from ‘The Light’ that it feels impossible to change the thinking to get any results. So we work diligently with our clients to unlock the doors in your mind as quickly as possible so that ‘The Light’ can shine to bring your miraculously improved business performance, more clients, more money to you, better opportunities appearing, new contacts materialising all leading to greater abundance, happiness and success.
