Winter Goals

Well, the colder weather is here. I am one of those people who love the sun and the beach. I never used to look forward to winter.

Until I reframed winter in my mind.

Winter can be a powerful time to refuel and think about what you would like to be doing when summer rolls around again.

What could you put in action right now that could lead to a summer goal being achieved?
I tend to look at winter as sowing the seeds. So, in the winter I usually take the time to do some study.
What is it you could be doing during winter?  maybe you could be working towards something you have always wanted to achieve?

If you are setting up a new goal, think about exactly what it is you want to achieve.
Once you have figured that out, ask yourself what is the reality right now with that goal? Can it be achieved now? Is it part way achieved? 
Once you know where you are the going with this goal, do a brainstorm.  Try not to think or analyse your ideas too much. Just let the ideas roll and write them down.  Once you have completed your brainstorm, look at all your ideas and choose one option that will move you closer to achieving that goal.

With that one think now a priority, what will you need to make it happen?  Do you need to do some research?  What resources already in our community can you use? Who would your support group be?  Is there someone you know who has already achieved this goal?  If so, ask them for some tips.

And finally, put a time frame on it.  If you say I will do it this year before you know it this year has passed by.  If you say I will complete this by November 25th, 2017, your brain has something to work towards.  Figure out what your blocks might be, what might derail you with this goal?  How can you get around that? Give it a good go. You might need to rethink some things along the way, and that is OK too.

STOP for a moment ...





Often we get so busy, we don't notice the amazing things going on around us.

Like, while we are going about our day, the grass is growing, the wind is blowing, the clouds are moving, the earth is up to all sorts of activity.

STOP and look around.

What could you enjoy right now, that doesn't cost you a cent or more than a few moments?

What is mother nature showing you right now?

Take time out, slow down, stop, and have a look around.

Have a great day ...

Soul Searching

Sometimes we find ourselves at the road blocks, or cross roads of life.

At these times it is worth while getting off the roller coaster of life and stopping and having a look around.

What can you see around you?

How do you feel at the moment?

What do you feel intuitively that you need to do right now?

What ever that is,  how can you make it happen?

Who would your support team be?

Imagine you have already made a decision and look into the future on how that worked out for you?

If you do nothing, things remain the same.

If you want change, then stopping and taking stock of the situation can help.

Then make a clear decision on what to do next.

Whether it is the right decision or not, you will quickly learn from it.

What is it you need to do next?

Gratitude

In the last few months, I have seen an enormous amount of tragedy happen to those around me.

It really did stop me in my tracks.

When life-changing stuff happens, it does make us stop and think,

Stop and realise, what is important.

Life can throw many curveballs, some big and some small,

If we get too caught up in the small stuff, we don't always have the energy for the big stuff that might come our way.

Being grateful for what we have here and now, allows us to enjoy each day, when we stop wishing for more and more and stop to enjoy what we have, we begin living more in the moment.
                                                            

Rest in peace to all those who have lost their lives and strength to all those family members and friends that are left behind.

Have you ever dreamed of having your own business?




Have you ever dreamed of having your own business?

Do you think it might just be for "them" and not you?

Do you think you probably don't have what it takes to make it happen?

Do you fear failure?

Business plans are the foundation of any good business. 

A business plan will help you plan out and do lots of research and deep questioning before you even start.

You can download many business plans of the internet, most of them run along the same lines of questions.

When do you decide to take a hobby into a business?

Effective questioning of what your product/service is,  who your customers are going to be, realistically looking at expenses and set up costs, running costs, there are so many questions.

And then what is your belief system telling you, do you really believe you can succeed or do you have a self-limiting belief that might not support you?

Do lots of research, ask lots of questions, ask someone who is already doing what you want to do, they might let you know some tips and how to avoid some downfalls.

But most of all have the desired outcome that is clear and concise.

Ask a negative person to look over your business plan, negative people have a skill of pointing things out to you that they don't like or think are wrong.  Use those skills, as they might just tell you something you have overlooked.

Start a business plan before you start your business.

Dream Boards



Dream Boards

Have you ever thought about what you want in the future?

Have you ever let your mind just wander unfiltered?

Have you ever dared to just imagine you were capable of anything?

Dream Boards allow you to do that.

Grab yourself a piece of cardboard that you like the colour of.
Have a whole array of magazines, articles, flyers, holiday brochures, house brochures, in fact anything that you can google that would inspire you to the future.

Cut these items out.

Remember to make up and print, or cut out inspiring words.

Dream Boards are personal to you, they are your dreams, no one elses, so no one else has a say in what goes on your dream board.

Dream Boards are wonderful for kids to make, try not to guide a child to your desired outcome, instead let them dream their dream.

Nautre, the best stress release



It is lovely to have had some nice weather.

The weather sure can have an impact on how we are feeling.

The nice weather generally makes us feel like we want to get out and about and do things.
Whether it be around our home or out and about visiting people and places.

Nature can offer one of the best stress releases.  To be able to STOP and look around, smell the aromas where we are, hear those noises that nature gives us. The smell of flower, the beauty of the nature around us, the sounds that nature gives us, the buzzing bee, the crashing of the waves on the beach.

Another wonderful stress release is called grounding, that is taking off your shoes and walking barefoot on the earth. This can be a wonderful sensation and can provide stress release.  Grounding or earthling has been around for centuries. We tend to put shoes on if the ground is wet, but to walk barefoot on the morning dew, or the grass that has been rained on, can help connect us back to the earth.

Most of us tend to think things in our life are stressful, and there are many fly by night potions and pills that can be sold to us to help us feel at peace.  Getting back to nature, and enjoying nature, stopping and slowing down, to notice how wonderful the world is and how while we are so busy, the grass is still growing, the clouds are still moving, the tide is going in and out.  Nature does this all effortlessly while sometimes we just get too busy to notice.

Enjoy the rest of the warmer weather, take care
