What to do when you are not getting the results that you are looking for
Posted by: | CommentsSomething interesting happened last week.
I noticed that I was I was trying too hard to “get it right” and I was feeling the pressure to “make something happen” in my business.
Do you ever feel that way?
I felt like part of this was the funky energy that has been swirling around in the Universe the past few weeks, but I also recognized that I was somehow out of alignment with what I wanted to create.
How did I know this?
Because shit kept showing up that was so not working for me and I was not getting the results that I was looking for.
Being the wise women that I am, I know that I somehow attracted these undesirable results, and it was my job to identify what was out of alignment and shift it.
And that is exactly what I did. In 3 days time I went from feeling pressured and having to make-something-happen, to feeling in the flow and kick-ass
Do you want to know how I did it?
I looked at what was showing up that did not work for me, identified how I was resonating with it, and I re-wrote my story to reflect what I wanted to be experiencing. Within three days everything had shifted and I was once again aligned with everything kick-ass in my life.
The magic of it all is that you can do this too when you feel like you are not getting the results that you are looking for.
Let me break it down for you.
First off, you need to take a step back and take a good look at what is going on.
Whatever you are experiencing is a direct manifestation of the energy that you are embodying. Do your best to get a clear perspective on what exactly is showing up that you are not wanting. This is valuable information and will give you insight into where you are not resonating with what you want and how you can shift it.
For example, one situation that kept showing up was that people said that they wanted to work with me, but they did not have any money.
I asked myself: “How am I resonating with this conversation?”
When I thought about it, I realized that I was holding onto a story that said money was tight and people did not have any to spend on creating their kick-ass dream life right now. I often talked about this “reality” with friends and colleges.
This story was totally out of alignment with what I wanted. Believing this story made me feel like I had to work harder and figure out a way to overcome this obstacle. It made me play a much smaller game than I wanted to play. It did not feel good to me and I felt like I had to DO something to make something happen.
In my kick-ass dream life, I help people who are already committed to going after their kick-ass dream, and they want some help navigating the obstacles. They are in-it-to-win-it and recognize the value of working with me and joyfully pay me for my services.
I needed to re-write my story and step back into the big game I wanted to play.
First , I consciously re-wrote my story to say: Everyday there are thousands of people who are investing money in their kick-ass dream life. Right now, there are hundreds of people who are on the path to living their kick-ass dream life who eagerly await the opportunity to work with me and will joyfully pay me my full fee.
Then I set out to collect evidence that people were spending money on personal growth and happiness. It went something like this:
I frequently spend money on my own personal growth and happiness.
I often meet other women who invest in themselves.
Right now there are thousands of people who invest in themselves every day.
Matter of fact, right now there are many people who would welcome the opportunity to invest their money in my services. There is a history of people doing just that.
(Now I am feeling better! )
I decide to spend some the day looking for evidence of people spending money on their happiness and living their kick-ass dream life.
I noticed the women who spend money on Zumba classes, a fancy car, shopping for new cloths, and whatever else that I can find that supports the idea that people are spending money on their kick-ass dream lives.
Soon I could feel my energy shifting and I was back in the flow.
You know what?
It worked, the next conversation I had with someone resulted in them hiring me! There was no talk about lack of money. This person is an ideal client and the whole conversation was effortless.

Your Story: Love It or Ditch It !
Posted by: | CommentsOne of my superstar clients came to me wanting support in building her business. She had reached a point where she felt bogged down and the joy was going out out of it for her. It was begining to feel a lot like WORK! Work she did not want to do. She found herself doing things she did not enjoy because she thought she “had to” do them.
Once we dug down into it, I uncovered a story that she was carrying that said in order to be successful in business, you had to be very serious and work hard. She had to MAKE everything happen and figure it all out. She was following a plan of action that did not feel very good to her.
Now, this superstar is a fun loving gal. Part of the reason she started her own business was so that she could enjoy herself and have the freedom to do what she wanted. As we explored the different stories she held about what success meant and looked like, and how you got there, it became apparent that her story was not in alignment with her desire.
She felt hemmed in and limited by what she thought she was supposed to do. This story took the joy out of everything.
It also took her out of alignment with her vision of how she wanted her business to be and she was not making the money that she desired.
Are you wondering what we did about it?
We ditched her old story about what she had to do in order to be successful and wrote a new one. In this superstar’s new story, her success easily grew out of her enjoyment of her work and it was fun and easy. We identified the different components of her business that felt good to her and were already working. I had her identify the things she really enjoyed doing and wanted to do more of. We focused on the fun and what was already bringing results.
We also identified the parts of her business that felt forced and were not working. If we could not find a way to make them fun we ditched them or found someone else to take care of it. When we were done she was already seeing things take off.
The biggest improvement was that she was enjoying it again! Things were opening up for her and she felt good! This new story was really working.
I am curious to know if any of you have places in your life or your business where you are feeling bogged down and are not getting the results that you want.
Do you know what your story is around it?
