Inspired Action in an hour or less

It’s Saturday!

Most people look at the weekend as a time to escape from their lives (something I’ll address at a different time)…

I want you to look at it as a time to take Inspired Action and step into the life you desire and want to create!

I’ve said it 8 million times and I’ll say it again…

If you want the Law of Attraction to work for you instead of against you, you MUST take Inspired Action!

Now here’s the deal, most people look at the things they are dissatisfied with and they do one of 2 things:

1. Ignore it (Bad Idea)

2. Try to FORCE it to change by taking action (EVEN WORSE Idea)

I know I said for the Law of Attraction to work for you Inspired Action must be taken…just make sure it is Inspired Action and not just ANY action.

If you are trying to force something to change or ‘think’ your way out of something you can chalk that up to ‘Just any action’.

When you feel an instinct to do something THAT is Inspired Action.

Here are the tricky things about Inspired Action…

• Inspired Action doesn’t always seem completely practical
• Inspired Action will often make you push your comfort zone

I want to give you a trick…

A way for you to take Inspired Action EVERY DAY…

Yes, I said it, I want you to take Inspired Action every day, EVEN ON THE WEEKEND!

If you are serious about designing your life instead of living it by default, then the weekend can be a time for fun and doing the things on your purpose list (check out the posts from earlier this week if you haven’t written your purpose list yet).  The weekend can be a time for increased attention to creating the life you desire.

I want you to imagine taking 1 step (just 1) of Inspired Action every single day…

How different will your life be a year from now?

What about a month from now?

Or even by the end of the day?

Are you getting excited yet?

The best part is that you can do this 1 step of Inspired Action at a time!

Here’s the trick to help you…

Every day (even on the weekends) I want you to look at your current primary goal (target) and ask yourself this one question:

‘What 1 step can I take today, that even if it pushes my comfort zone, I KNOW will take me 1 step closer to ————– (fill in your goal here)?’

Now here’s the key to this trick…

1. It has to be 1 step and 1 step ONLY of Inspired Action

(Call Jimmy to talk about our Joint Venture is 1 step, Get new website up is multiple steps.)

2. You HAVE TO TAKE THE INSPIRED ACTION!

The cool part is that most of the time the step of Inspired Action will take less than an hour and will move you forward more than 10 hours of JUST ANY ACTION.

Seriously, 1 inspired action phone call will normally change your life faster than 10 hours of organizing your office.

If you can actually change your life in 1 step of Inspired Action a day and in 1 hour or less a day, when is the best time to take the first step?

Now or NOW?

Now what? How to find your purpose – The Key to a fulfilling life – The Next Step

Did you answer the questions I gave you on how to find your purpose and the key to a fulfilling life, yesterday?

If you didn’t, GO DO IT NOW!

I am excited to work with you on how to find your purpose which is the key to a fulfilling life, but for me to help you, you have to DO MORE THAN READ THIS, and you must take INSPIRED ACTION!

Let’s jump in…

Yesterday you answered a bunch of questions I gave you and from that you should have come up with a few answers that seemed to keep showing up.

Those are the key you are looking for!

Grab your pen and paper again and write those elements down, we’ll call this your ‘Purpose List’…

If you are like most people you probably have 1-5 things written down…

I want you to rate those from most exciting to least exciting…

Let’s look at the woman I told you about yesterday who went through my ‘Find Your Purpose’ coaching…

When she answered all the questions I gave her, she discovered 3 things that kept reoccurring as times when she felt her best and in the zone. The 3 things were:

1. Animals

2. Being Outside

3. People

I had her to rate them from most exciting, (meaning when she felt most fulfilled) to least exciting.

The list then looked like this:

1. Animals
2. People
3. Being Outside

Okay, go rate your purpose list now…

Did you do it?

Great!

Now, quickly write down the times in your current life when you are participating or experiencing any of the items on your purpose list.

On a scale of 1-10 (10 being most or all of your time) how much of your time is spent on your purpose list?

Chances are good you answered between 1-5, right?

That’s what we need to focus on now…

In order to find your purpose and live a fulfilling life, you must be spending the majority of your time on the things that bring you the most fulfillment! That’s the key to a fulfilling life, that’s living your purpose!

‘But how do I do it Kristen? Are you saying I should quit my job and move?’

NO…

It is too soon to make any rash decisions, let me show you how to find your purpose while you are living your current life…

Let me help you step into your purpose and fulfilling life one step at a time, one day at a time…sound fair?

Good…

Here’s the question for today that will help you take steps toward finding and living your purpose…

Ready for it?

Here you go…

Ask yourself this question every single day…

“What 1 thing can I do today so that I spend at least 10 minutes on one of the things on my purpose list?”

AND THEN DO IT!

I promise you, once you start taking steps to spend more time doing the things that bring you joy EVEN without changing anything else in your life, you will start to align with your purpose and the law of attraction will start to draw more opportunities that align with your purpose to you.

I’m here to help you take this from this first step ALL THE WAY THROUGH to completely finding your purpose and living a fulfilling life…we’ll get there but you have to take the first step! Take it now!

Tell me what you plan on doing by leaving it here in a comment, accountability is huge and if you write it here you are 90% more likely to do it!

How to find your purpose – The Key to a fulfilling Life

Let me ask you some important questions…

• Are you struggling though life?
• Have you heard the saying, “Do what you love and the money will follow” but for the life of you, you can’t figure out what ‘what you love’ is?
• Do you feel that the key to a fulfilling life is to find your purpose, but you don’t even know where to start?
• Do you feel that until you find your purpose you will be stuck in this pattern of struggle?
• Do you wonder if you really have a purpose or if you are destined to a mediocre, purpose free life?

Did you answer YES to any of these questions?

If you did answer Yes to even one of these questions, you are in the right place…

Listen to me here…

It’s time for you…

It’s time for you to find your purpose and to have a fulfilling life…

I can hear you now, “But HOW Kristen, how do I find my purpose?”

Let’s start with a few simple steps…but first I have to ask you to allow yourself to answer whatever comes to mind and not judge what you come up with as possible or not possible.

No judgment; we are just digging in for discovery purposes…

Are you in?

Great, let’s go…

Grab a pen and paper (or you can go to your computer, but pen and paper tends to bring out more honest, instinctual responses) and answer these 10 questions…

Remember, don’t think, just write…

1. Write down your top 3 favorite things to do when you were a kid.
2. Write down your top 3 LEAST favorite things to do when you were a kid.
3. Write down your top 3 favorite things to do now.
4. Write down your top 3 LEAST favorite things to do now.
5. When you feel ‘In the zone’ at work, home or anywhere, what are you doing?
6. How do you make your money? What is your job?
7. How many hours a week do you spend at your job?
8. Is there anything about your job that you like and feel you are really good at?
9. What are the things about your job that you hate?
10. When do you feel most comfortable in your own skin? What are you doing?

You need to know 2 things when it comes to how to find your purpose as the key to a fulfilling life.

1. Your purpose CANNOT be something you don’t feel ‘Right’ doing?

AND

2. You can have MORE THAN 1 purpose!

First we need to discover the common bonds between all of your answers.

In your answers to the questions above, there are most likely a few things that keep popping up in your answers…

What are they?

Write them down…

One of my clients was struggling to find her purpose so we went through this exercise and found that dealing with animals and being outside kept popping up in her answers. When we talked about animals and being outside, she got animated and excited and emotional…that’s the KEY…she was emotional, she felt something…you have to be emotional about your purpose!

Here’s the funny part about this client of mine, she didn’t have any pets AND she worked in an office on a computer without any windows, very little interaction and certainly NO exposure to animals.

No wonder she felt like she was off purpose…she was!

She and I went through a whole process to find her purpose and I am happy to say she has found her purpose and is living a fulfilling life. It took time, time that you and I will take too…

The first step to how to find your purpose is to discover the answers to the questions I have put in this post…

Leave me a comment with any common things that keep popping out at you…that way I can help…it is important to see what you do love AND what you absolutely don’t love…write it all down, share it with me here and I’ll make sure I reply to your comments.

Once you do this exercise, we can move on to the next step of discovery for what you can do with that purpose.

Remember, to find your purpose is the key to a fulfilling life, take these steps now, answer the questions, let me know what you find by leaving it here in a comment and we will take this journey together!

Attract money fast by doing this 1 simple thing

Here we are at the last section of this Attract Money Fast series…

(If you haven’t read the whole ‘Attract Money Fast’ series of posts up until now, I would suggest that you read them quickly before you read this.)

We’ve talked about the 3 C’s to avoid if you want to attract money fast (Complain, Cut Off, Constrict and Conserve).

We’ve talked about Gratitude, we’ve talked about Giving and last but certainly not least, it’s time to talk about Generate.

To attract money fast you absolutely MUST commit to generating a positive vibration of abundance. Your energy vibration and level attracts the same energy vibration and level so you can see why you have to do everything you can to ‘feel good’ in every possible moment.

You’re probably saying, ‘Yeah right Kristen, when I feel like I need to attract money fast, I feel desperate and panicked so how am I supposed to generate a positive vibration when that isn’t how I feel?’

Good question!

If you find yourself in a negative place, I want you to stop and say to yourself, ‘I’m feeling negative right now, what is something I can think about that I feel great about?’

My mentor Dr. Robert Anthony always says it this way…

“Reach for the thought that feels best.”

Honestly, all that matters is getting yourself to generate a positive vibration, it doesn’t matter what you are positive about. Most people try to change what they are feeling negatively about…if they are stressing about money, they recognize that they are feeling negative and so they try to convince themselves to feel better about money…

This is a long journey down a path filled with more negative thoughts, because as you try to convince yourself not to feel negative about whatever it is you are feeling negative about, your feelings of negativity increase.

Here’s the deal…

The universe recognizes your vibration pattern…what that means is the most important thing in any moment is that you are in a positive place. If you can’t seem to change your negative feelings about something specific, think about something you DO feel good about. In Dr. Anthony’s program ‘The Secret of Deliberate Creation’ he calls this the flipswitch, and I’ll tell you it is extremely powerful.

I know it seems simple, but I want you to stop working so hard and just focus on feeling good in the moment…if you do that you will be amazed at the positive things you start to attract.

If you want to attract money fast, stop and ‘Reach for the thought that feels best.’ If you hold your attention on this positive thought for just 7 seconds you will be well on your way to attracting money fast.

Let me know your thoughts, leave me a comment, let me know how I can help you harness the law of attraction!

Go Big!

To Attract Money Fast you have to Give Money? Am I crazy?

Does the thought of giving when you feel like you have to attract money fast seem crazy?

If you answered ‘Yes’, you aren’t alone…

In fact I had a coaching client almost hang up on me earlier this year for this very reason.

Here’s what happened…I have been coaching this client for a long time, and like so many people right now, he’s hit a rough patch.

In our last session, I listened to him as he told me all about all of the things that were going wrong and how it was turning his world upside down since over the last 5 years he had really gotten his life on track and now it seemed like it was all going away.

Finally, he said, ‘Kristen, I need to attract money fast, what do I do?’

My answer was simple…

I said, ‘If you want to attract money fast, you need to give money.’

‘WHAT?’ The anger and fear that came through the phone at me was enormous.

‘Yup, I know it’s counter-intuitive, but when you feel like you NEED something, but the fastest way to bring it into your life is to give exactly what it is you feel you need.’ That was my reply, and that was when he told me in no uncertain terms that I must be crazy and that he was going to hang up.

Keep in mind, this man is not the combative type, he is unbelievably kind and sincere, but his comfort zone was shot and I sounded like a crazy person.

So I challenged him…

‘Okay, you need to attract money fast right?’

‘Yes!’ He was more than at the end of his rope now…

‘And you think I’m crazy for telling you that when you feel like you need to attract something fast you should give it, right?’

‘YES!’

‘Are you up for a challenge?’

He paused…and then, ‘Yes’ came over the phone…

‘Okay…here’s your challenge, for 1 week you accept that the way you are going to attract money fast is by giving money. You follow through on that with inspired action and at our session next week, if you don’t have more money than you do right now, you don’t pay for the session AND I will post a blog post saying that I made a mistake.’

‘You got a deal!’ He sounded like his old self, determined and excited…

Half way through the week he called me ecstatic because he just landed a new client that would bring him an extra $3,000 a month…

This is what happened…

According to him, he hung up the phone with me and went on a walk. He ended up on the main strip in his town that had a bunch of restaurants and watched a woman park her car and jump out to feed the meter. After searching though her pocket book for a minute she started asking people if they had change for a dollar. Every person she asked ignored her or shrugged and kept walking.

He said he was about to turn around and walk the other way so she wouldn’t ask him, and then he remembered the challenge I gave him. He dug into his pockets and found a bunch of change, walked up to her, tapped her on the shoulder and handed her the entire fist full of change he had pulled out of his pocket. She went to grab a dollar to pay him and he waved her off. She said, ‘This is more than a dollar, let me count out what I need and give you back the rest.’ And he said, ‘Keep it, that way you’ll have it the next time you need it.’ And then he turned and walked away.

He told me that he felt good and suddenly free and realized how much he had been clamping down on money.

‘It wasn’t a lot of money…but if she had asked me for it a day ago I would have felt like I couldn’t give it to her and would have avoided her at all costs. That’s not like me…’ He said. ‘I’m not like that and yet since I need money fast, I was clenching onto whatever I do have and it was constricting me in so many ways.’

I asked him how his new client came about and he said this guy had been calling him for 3 weeks, but his messages were always vague and my client was so concerned with how he was going to attract money fast that he kept putting off calling him since he was too busy focusing on his money problems.

The day after he gave the change to the woman, he was feeling much more focused and was actually getting work done as opposed to spinning his wheels all day in a panic about money…and he decided to the things that were unfinished, the phone call to what turned about to be his new client was one of those things.

I thought an actual story could illustrate this better than me trying to explain it…

I promise you, whatever it is you feel you need more of…go out and give it!

It doesn’t have to be a lot…it isn’t about the amount…it’s about letting go of the constriction you have. When you constrict, you block the flow, when you give you open yourself up to receive.

1 word of caution here…don’t make the mistake of going out and giving and then waiting to see how it will come back to you…the second you start looking for it as proof that this works, you are constricting and blocking the flow again. Just give and let go…it sounds crazy but it works.

• If you need to attract money fast, go give it!
• If you want to attract love, go give it!
• If you want to attract positivity, go give it!

And then let go and trust that you have removed the flow blocks and are now ready to receive.

Let me know how you feel about this post…it is a hot button topic, so I won’t be surprised if you have resistance to it.

I challenge you with the same exact challenge I gave to my client…let me know if you are up for the challenge…and let me know what happens!

The last step in the ’3 Steps to Attract Money Fast’ Series is Generate and we’ll talk about that next time, see you then!
