Checking In(side)
Wednesday is Business Series
Post 4
What we are going to talk about today will involve all that we had ever talked about – in order to keep it real, relevant to you, in the moment, and to move on to another level. There is no skipping, slacking, or picking just one or two things to change. If you are committed to honouring your inner being’s calling in tirelessly giving it your all – so that you can realise your fullest potential and have a chance of being the best version of you possible (only presuming that you will not give up) – then, we have the work cut out in front of us, my dear friend.
In recording and documenting my journey through these tiny (and not so tiny, but constant) daily victories, I am inviting you to start thinking about the impact and the message of your own journey. If you are someone who has taken the leap of faith, someone who believes in themselves, someone who has disconnected from anything soul crushing – even if you have nothing but your belief – welcome, as you are already on the road called success.
You will need to keep in check with all the aspects of looking after your mind, body and soul, without dropping or stopping anything that is important, or essential to you. The true measures you will know, and only you can define for yourself – but remember above everything that you have to be honest with yourself (and others – I really think this goes without saying).
No. 1 – Get Rid of the Safety Net
Whatever that is for you, and you know you have it – that very thing is not doing you any favours in really going deeper into your soul for guidance, wisdom, creativity when it comes to resourcefulness, embracing risk and being in natural flow with your own daily pace of growing and expanding. Your safety net is keeping you where you are and you are going to stay there for a very long time. Two steps forward, one step backwards and one sideways – is no progress. That’s not what your unlimited potential is – that’s just an excuse for not being brave enough when it really matters – not when your own life’s happiness depends on you. That’s almost the definition of comfort zone, so pay attention and listen to your heart. Your heart is always brave – it is your mind that is scared. There is nothing to fear in life, my friend. You can set off on an adventure of the lifetime simply by listening to what your heart is calling you to do. It will never ever lead you astray. True love can only lead you to yourself, never in the direction of unwanted.
No. 2 – Stop Overriding Your Inner Voice
Your intuition is always going to guide you to the best possible outcome for you. It’s time to really start trusting yourself. While it is fine to selectively look for teachers who resonate with your inner voice, it is never going to be of benefit to you to indulge in listening and relying on other people’s opinions of: where you are going, what you are doing, how you should be feeling, how you are doing. Good or bad – this is irrelevant to you, as it is only your own opinion of you that ever matters in your own life. Please read that again. Do not distract yourself with someone/anyone else. Yes, having support is nice (although not crucial to your own success), but when it comes to making choices for you – there is only one voice you have to be tuned in to hear – and that is your own inner being’s voice. Your soul knows everything you desire, knows who you are and it will always guide you to the best version of you that you can be in that particular moment. It’s safe to trust your inner being. In fact, nothing else is as safe and sure as that. Just work on quieting your mind, so that you can hear your soul.
No. 3 – Constantly Reach For More Inside You
The answer to your every question will be available and waiting for you just under your nose. Remember that quotation that the only Zen you find on top of the mountain is the Zen you bring with you? Exactly right, my friend. Other people and their own personal wisdom are pointers, signs, lights – but the power of always going forward, and endlessly being better today than yesterday – is all in your own hands. Inside yourself – you are not alone. The soul of the universe is part of your being, waiting for you to let it in. Dance with life just once – you will never again contemplate settling down for mediocrity. It will make your stomach turn inside out to realise what you had been choosing and calling it your life….
No. 4 – Nothing Short of Outstanding
Is it ridiculous for you to want to create a successful business that delivers your excellence as standard? Well, that path you’re not going to stumble upon on the beaten track, by following the herd. You will have to be the scout. You have to hear, talk, know, be in the game – but play your own game by your own rules. If your standard is up there, then don’t consider anything that’s somewhere here, sort of mid/high/has the potential. Don’t kid yourself! Outstanding is unlike anything else you have ever seen out there. Outstanding is the standard written only on your own heart! Start applying it and living it, breathing, dreaming and creating everything by that same standard. That is what you are meant to do. Not comply, conform and follow without even checking whether that herd is travelling in your direction.
No. 5 - Relax About Knowing it All
It’s OK to face a new day with a healthy dose of curiosity, excitement, eagerness to explore and to create magic. It’s OK to go with the flow – because that flow, the flow your inner being is part of, although breathtakingly fast moving – will be thrilling to navigate. And no two days in your life will ever be the same. Ever!
Now tell me, which side of the fence are you sitting on? Inside the walls you confined yourself to – or, if you still remember when you dreamed adventures – are you against joining me for a day of pure joy in my world? Just beware: hanging out with me will make you a believer, a lover of life, and a performer of all sorts of magic…. If you dare, then….
Remember – You Are Safe Here
