“My visualizations around money aren’t working…”

September 19, 2011

One of the questions I get asked -actually possibly the most often- is along the lines of “I always visualize a lot of money to create a more abundant life, but nothing is happening yet! Where do I go wrong?” If you have this feeling too, rest assured that you are not alone. Your visualizations may not always work out like that straight away for various reasons, but the good news is that you can work on getting more and more successful in your visualizations by following a few guidelines.

>p>If you feel you are not getting (enough) results from your visualizations, there can be a number of things blocking the attraction of your goals and visions. The most important thing is to visualize abundance from a feeling of abundance and “feeling as if”, so you really need to FEEL as if you already have the financial abundance you are after in order to attract the same vibrations. You see, many people visualize and try to attract money from a feeling of lack, desperation, frustration etc. “I need my finances to get better as I am broke, I need a new car, etc”. The problem however, is that this only attract more situations that generate these kind of “needy” feelings ….!

So the key is to focus on” feeling good and positive”. That is very important; make a real effort to feel happy and prosperous. An excellent and easy to use tool is gratitude to generate those feelings. You see, you will always have something to be grateful for. Gratitude is one of the most powerful feeling states and will put you in a very positive, powerful vibrational state. In addition, you may also need to work on your belief system. Use affirmations to strenghten your belief in the attraction of your vision. If you visualize something but you don’t really believe you will get it or that you deserve to have this in your life, you will also block the flow. So you could state an affirmation like “I deserve to be prosperous and I am now attracting abundance to my life” often.The more you read it and internalize it, the stronger your belief and the stronger your attraction. By making adjustments like these to your visualization regime, your abundance may have just gotten a bit closer!!

Have a GREAT week!

Imagine the fulfilment you’ll feel when completing this goal or task…

August 23, 2011

The beginning of yet another new week full of possibility to get closer to your vision… What will you be working on today? Do you have a specific goal or task in mind that you want to achieve this week? I invite you to have a quick think about the following:

“the achievement of which specific goal or task this week will make me feel truly fulfilled and satisfied, even if that would the only thing I’d realize?”

How about a goal in the area of…

your health?

your career?

your family?

your hobbies?

your business?

I encourage you to give some thought to this RIGHT NOW. Don’t skip over this….. I know your email box might be full, your diary overloaded and your blood pressure might be rising already …. But just take 5 minutes to set yourself up powerfully for the week right now.

Try and clear your mind and think about the following:

Select one goal for the week: which one is it?

Why is this important to you?

What will it look like when you have achieved your goal? (Visualize this)

How will you feel when you have achieved this? Generate this feeling right now.

What will it take to make this goal happen, which action steps will you need to take?

WHEN will you take these actions?

Make sure to actually DO it. Make a note in your diary to take action or – better still- start right now. It will give you a feeling of accomplishment straight away, that may inspire you to take even more action in the week to come. Step by step, this will help you get closer to your vision. Imagine completing at least one important task a week, what impact will this have on your life a year from now?

Have a GREAT week!

“I believe in me”

August 16, 2011

A while back, I came across a magnificent affirmation by Melissa Bult (Life Coach, Spiritual Teacher and Naturopathic Consultant in Auckland, New Zealand) which I adjusted slightly (I changed the word “you” in “me” in it, so it became an affirmation to empower yourselves). While tidying up my computer I read it again and it inspired me so much that I thought I’d share it with you here.

I hope it empowers you to create the most amazing, blissful, successful and fun week ever:), enjoy!!

I Believe In Me.

I believe I am a Great and Wise Soul with a special purpose. A purpose that will greatly contribute to the world. Everything I need to know is already there for me.

I believe I am Beautiful in all ways. Beautiful – both inside and out. I have the ability to see beauty in all things for I am beautiful myself.

I believe I am the Truth. Truth is my true nature. I know the truth of all things and I am able to walk and talk my truth easily.

I believe I am courageous. For I have always been able to cope with each situation that has presented itself to me. This is as true of my future as it is of my past.

I believe I am Grateful. For all my experiences and all that I have everyday, in every way.

I believe that I am Joyful. Because I know that Joy is what I deserve in all areas of my life.

I believe I have Compassion. I am compassionate to all living things and to myself.

I believe I am Powerful. I use my power wisely and from a place of love in everything I do. I have the power to create my world any way I wish.

I believe that I am Peace. I am here to bring peace to this planet in my own way by recognizing the peace that resides in my own heart.

I believe I am already Perfect exactly as I am. As how can a Divine creation be anything but perfect.

I believe I am The Light. I am a guiding light for others in all ways. I have been given talents to shine my light in many ways for the benefit of all and I shine brilliantly.

I believe I am LOVE. My Soul knows nothing but love. I am a loving being who can give and receive love easily, knowing that there is an endless supply of love and that love is the most powerful thing that exists.

I believe in me. I believe in me!

Let’s create a world where we all believe in each other. For whatever we believe about ourselves we believe for another, for there is only one of us here.I am loved and supported beyond all measure of my imagination, I am the miracle.

(Thanks again Melissa! For those interested: Melissa’s website is www.angelguidance.net)

Have a GREAT week!

Are you attracting the wealth you visualize?

August 9, 2011

Financial wealth is one of the most popular topics of visualization and yet, it seems to be one of the hardest thing to bring into reality. One of the key reasons for this may be, that your blockages prevent you from creating an abundant flow of money into your life.

You see, an important point to realize, is that if you don’t have the wealth right now that you wish for, it means you are blocking the flow of money into your life, with your thoughts and feelings.

Your wallet speaks very clearly about the vibrations you have been sending out into the universe about money up until now.

So it is important to have a really good look at your beliefs about money. Money seems to be a topic that brings with it a complex set of beliefs, opinions and programming. When you look at TV programs, books and in general people talking around you, there are a lot of opinions about wealthy people out there. These have a certain influence on your beliefs. So I suggest to take some time and find for yourself the main beliefs you have about money. Just get started then put your list somewhere you can grab it quickly to add to it.

Once you have written down your list, start converting these beliefs into positive, empowering affirmations. For example: if your belief is “Money doesn’t grow on trees, it is hard to make money” you could create an affirmation stating:

“There is an infinite supply in wealth and abundance, money constantly flows to me easily and effortlessly, I love it!”

As soon as you notice a belief coming up in your mind, write it down and start counteracting it with an empowering, abundance focused affirmation. If you diligently follow these suggestions and keep affirming the abundance that is your birthright is coming to you from all directions, you will start noticing that your attitude around money changes completely, your inspired actions will therefore change, and you will start seeing more and more abundance flowing into your life.

Remember: YOU deserve to be wealthy, healthy and happy!

Have a GREAT week!

Find your “Inner Conflicts”

August 2, 2011

What goal haven’t you achieved as yet, despite a lot of action and energy put into it? What do you think may be the reason for this? One thing stopping you from actually achieving your goal may be your beliefs about this goal or the achievement of it.

Let’s take an easy example and let’s say your goal is to become a millionaire. On the surface you are really excited about this goal and you may even visualize yourself as a millionaire, doing the things you would do should you have a million dollars on your account. However, deep inside you, you may harbour the belief that all millionaires are evil or that having a lot of money will mean loosing your friends. So subconsciously you actually don’t really support your goal of becoming a millionaire. This problem is that this will hold you back from achieving this goal. You may be offered a fantastic business opportunity, however instead of accepting it, you may turn it down as your subconscious is secretly signalling “no, better not do that or you may become really rich and loose your friends”.The reasons you come up with for declining may be totally different of nature “he timing isn’t right, I don’ t have the money or skills to invest in this, etc.” however the deeper reason is your subconscious sabotaging your success out of a certain fear.

Anthony Robbins talks in this respect about an interesting concept called “Inner Conflicts”. Your desire conflicts with a certain belief you have about this desire or yourself.

The key here is to distinguish the beliefs that are holding you back from achieving your goals. This is an ongoing process of discovery; I would like to encourage you to get started today. have a think about a goal you have and try to distinguish any beliefs you have that may sabotage the achievement of this goal. Examples of beliefs are:

I can’t do it

I don’t have time

Others will judge me for it

It’s just not “me”

To counteract these beliefs, it is crucial to create affirmations that state the opposite and repeat them often to yourself to reprogram your subconscious. This could be an affirmation such as “I have all the time in the world to work on my business plan” or “I am a very competent person and have enough skills to succeed in this job”. I know this short description doesn’t do justice to the more complex process of attraction, creating affirmations etc., however it would go too far to explain all of that in this short Splash. So make sure to check out my other Splashes or the articles on this site to learn more about how to create effective affirmations and counteract negative, limiting beliefs. Also remember that our complete Vision Board Studio package comes with a comprehensive “Vision Juicing” handbook and “Six Week Challenge” work book to support you in this process as well, so make sure to read and act upon these valuable resources that are part of your package!

Get your sporting goals under way today!

Have a GREAT week!

How often do you focus on your vision?

July 18, 2011

Let me get right back to the basics this week: how often do you look at your Vision Board? Whether you have a paper based one, or a Vision Board created with our Vision Board Studio Software, it is crucial to create maximum exposure to your Vision. So often people start all excited and put together a beautiful Vision Board, only to let it collect dust on a cupboard. The initial enthusiasm goes away and the vision is ever achieved as it didn’t get the attention it requires

Make sure you have your Vision Board all around you so you can focus on it often!

Please bring up your Vision Board right now. Don’t read on…. Go and put it on your screen before you continue reading. Have a really good look at your vision, your goals, your dreams that are showing on your board. Are they worth a bit of time investment? Then please, make some time in your diary right now to create exposure to your vision. Print out your Vision Board, display it as your wall paper and add it to your phone. Watch it each and every day and notice your inspiration growing!!

Here’s my personal Vision Board! Feel free to let me know your experiences with this by posting a comment, I’d love to hear from you. Thanks!

Have a GREAT week!

“All is well”

July 12, 2011

You have another valuable week ahead of you, full of potential and special moments! I read an inspiring meditation from Louise Hay, in her wonderful book “Meditations to heal your life”. I thought I’d share it with you today as this weeks “Splash of Inspiration”:

“All is well. I have everything I need now”.

When I am impatient, I know it is because I do not want to take the time to learn the lesson at hand. I want it done now. Or as I once heard: “Instant gratification is not soon enough.” There is always something to learn, something to know. Patience is being at peace with the process of life, knowing that everything happens in the perfect time/space sequence. If I am not having completion now, then there is something more for me to know or do. Being impatient does not speed up the process; it only wastes time. So I breathe, go within, and ask, “What is it I need to know?” Then I patiently wait to receive the help that is all around me”

May this meditation empower you in this week to make it your most peaceful one ever! Feel free to let me know your experiences by posting a comment, I’d love to hear from you. Thanks!

Have a GREAT week!

What’s your “Happy place music”?

June 28, 2011

In the gym today, the instructor said to me “I love this song, it brings me right into my Happy Place”. I thought that was such a great way of looking at this piece of music, which was quite uplifting and had a nice message to it. I started thinking straight away about the music that get’s me into my own “Happy Place” and made a mental note to have a listen to it in the evening.

So what is YOUR “Happy Place music”? What song gets your vibes right up there again?

Music is one of the most powerful energy shifters I know of. It can get you into a different, better mood almost instantly. It is therefore an excellent “tool” to have in your tool box for those moments where you feel challenged, negative or frustrated. As you now, feeling negative will bring about negative vibrations, so the right kind of music can help you get back into a more positive feeling space. So make sure you take some time to select some “Happy Place music” for yourself.

Once you have selected your songs, make sure you also use this in your Vision Board Studio and add it to your Vision Board script. Each time your Vision Board is displayed you will hear a song that makes you feel happy and gets your vibes up!

Enjoy! Feel free to let me know your experiences with this by posting a comment, I’d love to hear from you. Thanks!

Have a GREAT week!

How to create an empowering environment

June 21, 2011

The more positive feelings you have, the higher your vibrations will be which in tun will attract positive things into your life. People around you however can make it quite a challenge sometimes to stay positive and uplifted, right? So how do you make sure you have positive people around you that empower and inspire you?

My suggestion may surprise you.. Here it is:

Create an inspiring environment around you by BEING inspiring yourself!

You see, when you are inspiring, you will ignite inspired actions in others in return. Who you are being will determine the vibrations you create around you. So if you are being friendly, most people will respond with friendliness. If you show your gratitude to others, at one point or another they will start expressing their gratitude back to you. It starts with something as simple as a smile: when you smile at someone, the change is very big that they smile back, right? It’s just a natural thing to do.

So I invite you to experiment with this a little and see what happens. Start complimenting the people around you in a genuine way, for their actions, how they make you feel or what they may have contributed in your life. Give people your undivided attention for a few minutes. Show people your gratitude, even just for doing a good job on packing your groceries. Or tell your kids or partner what you appreciate about them. You will be amazed by the wave of positive energy you create around you, as people will respond to you with gratitude, attention or a big smile too.

Enjoy! Feel free to let me know your experiences with this by posting a comment, I’d love to hear from you. Thanks!

Have a GREAT week!

You are a human BEING not a human DOING..

June 14, 2011

The beginning of a new week.. How about a little reflection?!

It is so easy to just keep going and going without stopping for a minute and reflecting on your life. We are acting like human DOINGS so much that we forget that we actually are human BEINGS….

Here’s something I invite you to do right now:

PRACTISE BEING GRATEFUL

GRATITUDE is a very powerful energy shifter. By focusing on what you have to be grateful for, you create positive vibrations that will attract more positive things to you life. It creates a wonderful upwards spiral of energy that makes you buzz and feel loving and excited. Even if you have some challenges (and who hasn’t..), there will still be good things happening in your life that you can acknowledge.

“Are you fortunate enough to have: a loving partner, a good home to live in, supportive family, happy children, good friends, nice colleagues, exciting holiday plans, a growing business and/or good health?”

Please close your eyes for a moment and think and feel about all the things, big and small, you can be grateful for in your life. See if you can make this a habit in your daily schedule, it will truly make a difference in your general feeling of well BEING and happiness.

Sunrise

Have a GREAT week!
