Have you lost hope?

The other night I sat around talking with 2 of my closest friends.

We were talking about losing people you love and the process you go through afterward to reclaim your life…

We all agreed that when you go through losing someone who is very important to you, there is a healthy amount of ‘The small stuff doesn’t matter’ that follows…

And that’s a good thing!

However, one of my friends made the very good point that there is a flip side to that when you are suddenly faced with the reality that we are all going to live and then we are going to die and that flip side is the natural impulse to wonder why any of it matters.

Then she said the most amazing thing…

She said, “I feel like I’ve lost the constant hope I used to have.  I’m still looking for it, but if I’m being honest, I’ve lost my hope.”

When she said this her eyes were so clear and honest and real…

I said, “Isn’t that just hope showing up differently?”

“What do you mean?” she asked…

“Well, you’ve lost your hope but you are still looking for it…so you have hope you’ll re-discover your hope…”

Her eyes lit up…

“Yeah, funny…you’re right.” She seemed relieved…

Here’s the deal…

When it seems like you’ve lost your hope, for whatever reason…

Ask yourself if you still truthfully feel that you are looking to have hope again…

Sometimes emotions show up in different ways than we are used to…

They have to re-design themselves so that we’ll notice them and feel them and not always recognize them…

Have you lost hope?

About anything…you can lose hope in one area and not another…

• You can lose the hope that you’ll ever be wealthy, but know that you have love
• You can lose the hope that you’ll live your dreams, but know you can make lots of money
• You can lose hope that you’ll ever feel excited about your life but know you can be healthy

So, have you lost hope?

Do you feel yourself looking for it…wondering if you’ll find it right where you left it?

Then let me give you the good news…

You still have it…

It is never too late for hope…

It is never too late to believe that things can change…

It is never too late to live an extraordinary life…

You can do it…one step at a time!

Don’t hesitate…

Leave me a comment and tell me where you have hope!

Go Big!

3 Steps to Attract Money Fast (Part 2)

I know you want to get to the 3 Steps to Attract Money Fast, so let’s dive right in…

Last post we talked about the 3 C’s and how they may be natural but they only make the situation worse. Today we’ll get into the 3 G’s. As I said last time, The 3 Steps to Attract Money Fast require you to step out of your comfort zone and go against survival instinct.

I told you these 3 Steps may sound ‘Woo Woo’ and even completely ridiculous, but if you are here reading this, I’m assuming you are ready to try them and give them an honest shot the next time you need to attract money or anything fast.

The 3 Steps to Attract Money Fast aka The 3 G’s:

1. Gratitude
2. Give
3. Generate

1. GRATITUDE:

Gratitude is the way to abundance. It’s as simple as that.

Do this right now…no matter how awful things may seem in your life right now…it’s time to get grateful.

I can hear you kicking and screaming, ‘Are you crazy Kristen? Nothing in my life is going right and you want me to be grateful?’

Yes…that’s exactly right…I want you to be grateful and I GUARANTEE you that you have at least 3 things you can be grateful for.

Time for some tough love…

Your life might be terrible right now, but when you sit in Complaining and Self Pity and any of the other awful emotions you may be feeling, you prolong the struggle.

So I ask you this…

What do you have to be grateful for right now?

Part of you is probably yelling at me, ‘NOTHING…I have NOTHING to be GRATEFUL FOR!’

Here, let me help…

• Are you breathing right now?
• Can you read?
• Can you walk and run and talk and laugh?
• Can you think and imagine?
• Can you hear and smell and eat?
• Do you have someone (anyone) somewhere that loves you?
• Do you have someone (anyone) somewhere that you love?

I promise you that if you are reading this right now you have something to be grateful for…in fact, I believe you have at least 3 things to be grateful for.

What are they? You can answer in your head, on paper or post them here.

Even if it doesn’t make sense to you…the FIRST STEP in the 3 Steps to Attract Money Fast is to get grateful.

What are 3 things you are grateful for? I don’t care how small they are…think of each of them…really focus on them individually…why are you grateful for these things?

Focus on them, feel them, breathe into them and then for each of them say, ‘THANK YOU’.

If you are thankful for being able to breathe say, ‘I am so grateful for my breath and for my body that breathes without me having to tell it to, THANK YOU.’

If you are thankful for your imagination say, ‘I am so grateful for that I can imagine what if feels like to have a full and abundant life, THANK YOU!’

You get the idea…

Do it now…

I don’t care if it seems silly…DO IT!

Just by doing it you will change your state…

You will literally shift from an awareness of lack to an awareness of abundance. Remember you attract what you focus on!

Now you are ready for the second step in the 3 Steps to Attract Money Fast…

We’ll talk about the 2^nd G next time…until then, place a comment and let me know what you are Grateful for…

I am grateful for you!

Go Big!
