The World of Infinite Possibilities…

I live in a world of infinite possibilities and you do too.

You may not think you do, but I assure you for everything you want to create, be, have, or do, there are an infinite number of ways to get there.  The only thing holding you back from the many paths is you.

Now, this isn’t a blame game where I tell you it’s all your fault, because honestly it’s not.  We have been taught a lot of things that aren’t true and the idea that there are only a handful of ways to get from point A to point B is but one.

It’s time to learn something new.

It’s time to see the bigger picture and all the amazing ways your dreams can come true and to allow the forces of the Universe to work for you, not against you.

It’s time to break free from your monkey brain that is running 100 miles a minute in order to make things happen for you.

It’s time to accept the truth that there are an infinite number of ways your dreams can come true.

I’ll use myself as an example.

When I set out on this path to becoming a life coach, I did what any responsible and logical person would do.  I googled how.

I found a ton of information on various programs, certificates, coaches, professionals, organizations, books, etc. that were sure to help me get from where I was (in a job I hated) to where I wanted to be (and incidentally where I am now).  I decided that the fastest way from point A to point B would be to find a program, get certified, and start my practice.

It seemed simple enough, but I quickly learned it wasn’t.

I had some road blocks that were popping up all over the place.  For 2 years I was struggling to find the right program at the right price, with the right focus and I was desperate to get on with my plan.

No matter how hard I tried to make this one way work, it didn’t.  The programs were too expensive, not close enough, too long, or just plain off.  And while I was given every indication that this was not the way to do it, I kept pushing.  I kept trying.  I kept forcing it to be that way because it had to be, right?  I mean let’s be honest, google is rarely wrong.

It was the thought that there was only one way to get there that was holding me back.  That’s it.

I couldn’t see another way.  All I could think about was how to get the money, find the program, and get certified already.

What I ignored was my innate talent, knowledge, and expertise that I used every single day.  I was using it with co-workers, friends, and family members.  In fact, I even had my Masters in Psychology and still didn’t believe it was enough.

Once I was willing to see another way and entertain the idea that I hadn’t exhausted all possibilities, my eyes were open and I was ready to leap.  I started my coaching practice within just a few months of this realization and have been working at it ever since.

The same goes for you.

In fact, when you take your hands off the wheel and let go of the one track mind of ‘how’ your dreams will come true, you allow the Universe to work its magic to bring you amazing opportunities you never thought possible.

And by simply brainstorming other ways you can reach your dream, you put energy out into the world that opens the door to some truly magical experiences.  The things that happen as a result will blow your mind.  They will seem too good to be true, but I promise they aren’t.  They will be the result of you opening your mind and your heart to the infinite possibilities that lie before you.

We are only human and as such, we can only imagine a few ways our dreams can become reality and if you are like most, you are likely looking at the logical or realistic paths to what you desire.

Action Step:  Today I want you to do something a little different.  I want you to grab your journal or a notebook and write your big dream at the top.  Below that I want you to get creative and think of all the amazing ways your dreams can come true.  Try to quiet the logical mind that is sure to try to get in the way.  Write them all down and then lean back a bit and watch the magic occur in your life.  I promise you will be amazed. 

P.S. Are you having a little trouble getting outside of your logical brain?  I know it’s not always that easy for us to do, but lucky for you I am really good at brainstorming and helping clients break free from reality and dive head first into the magical ways you can create the life of your dreams.  In fact, I’ve created a community on Facebook to keep you motivated and inspired so you can Love Your Life.  Join us!  And if you are interested in working with me one-on-one, but aren’t exactly sure what you need, feel free to schedule your 30-Minute Consultation here.  I have a few spots open this week so let’s chat!

Let’s Talk Money…

October 8, 2013 by Lamisha

So it seems that money is the topic of discussion these days not only in the news with all this talk of the U.S. budget etc., but also with potential clients.  When asked why they haven’t moved toward the life of their dreams, the limiting factor is often times, you guessed it, money.

Whether they are wanting to start their own business, move to another part of the country, or travel the world, many of the roadblocks are the same.  They haven’t yet amassed enough money to do so.  In their minds (and mine at one time), they had the straight and narrow view of how they could (or couldn’t) accomplish their goal.

Let’s say you want to travel the world for a year.  You might think the most realistic way of doing that would be to have to save enough money to pay all of your expenses while you are away.  In order to do that you calculate what you make now, a realistic amount of money you can save, and how much you will need for your year-long expedition.  Understandably so, that calculation could not only be depressing, but it could also take the wind right out of your sails.  You might feel like it will never happen and you simply let it fall by the wayside.

But, what if instead of providing a straight and narrow view of how it is most likely going to come to fruition, you made a list of all the awesome ways it could happen.  Use the what if game I talk about here and allow your imagination to run wild.

For the example above you might come up with a list that looks like this:

  • I could win the lottery and have all the money I need
  • Someone could gift me the money
  • I could win a trip around the world
  • I could get a new job that pays more and travel sooner
  • I could find a midnight hustle to make the extra money
  • I could find a job that would pay me to travel
  • I could sell all my crap and do it
  • I could work with a life coach and she can help me reach my goal

You get the idea.  This exercise is meant to open your eyes to all of the wonderful ways you could get to your dream without following the most logical and realistic idea.  In fact, if I were working with you on this specific example I would show you how you can get clear about your dream, follow your inspiration to take a tiny step forward, and watch as some amazing things fall into place that will lead you to the next inspirational nugget on your journey.  Doesn’t that sound much better than trying to do it the way that feels so hard and so impossible?

When you limit yourself to accomplishing your dream via this one specific channel, you cut yourself off from all other possibilities.  This wonderful world of ours is full of situations, opportunities, contacts, networks, jobs, etc. that can help you get to where you want to be.  You just have to open your mind to the possibilities that are out there and the best way to do that is to tap into your inspiration.  Don’t allow your current job, income, bills, situations etc. limit you in living the life of your dreams.  Open your mind and see what happens.

Is money the thing you are lacking to make your dream come true?
