Progress in Leaps & Bounds!
I am typing this blog post from my Hotel room, I’ve been up since 5 am mulling things over in my brain. Yoga didn’t calm me, but working did (strange how that is) and finally I just decided to get it all out in a blog post!
The reason I am in a hotel room? I’m on my first of two, Private Platinum VIP retreats with my business coach (I like to call her my best friend in biz) Gina Bell. We spend yesterday going over the next three months of my calendar and talking about things in the industry in general and specifically. It’s good to know that I’m on the right track, and I got a confidence boost. Gotta love a good coach!
So before I get ready for Day 2 and grab a much needed coffee, I wanted to share this quick video about the difference between wanting success and actually being successful! If you are interested in more info about coaching, go here (I’m especially joyful right now, you’ll see why in the post, and I’ve gone delusional with my coaching pricing).
Unhappiness is so uncomfortable! So why do so many choose it?
I confess. I am a spoiled, rotten brat!
Let me explain…
A couple of weeks ago I was irritated for no reason. In fact, I was sitting on the coach and I must have had a serious look on my face because my husband asked what was wrong.
And I couldn’t give him an answer. I just said, “I don’t know. Nothing…at all. Nothing happened to day to cause me to feel a bit down. Didn’t have any unpleasant experiences, no arguments with family, or friends. No catastrophe.”
And then it clicked (and I thought it out loud)
I’m so used to being really happy, that when I’m just so-so, I feel really depressed!
I’m spoiled rotten with happiness vibes!
Do you know what that feels like? Chock it up to being my own fault! A couple of years ago, I didn’t know what it felt like to feel good, or be happy. So minor depression and anxiety was part of life for me. In fact, I probably had the opposite problem, where I thought something must be wrong if I was happy!
Now, after practice and deliberate focus on feeling good, I’ve gone and spoiled myself with happiness ! Which means that when I step “outside the vortex” (have disconnected from my authentic self, or am feeling a bit blah) I REALLY feel it.
It really affects me, where as normal people probably wouldn’t notice!
Now I want you to know that I am NOT complaining. I think this is one of the best things that has ever happened to me! I have moved past the barrier of existing, and am actually conscious and aware and living my life. And it feels really good.
Even being “outside the vortex” isn’t that bad, once I reframed it to see how the contrast allows me to be happy. That is, without contrast, you can’t tell if you’re happy or not. Which is what I was feelings years ago. So if you don’t know what it feels like to be happy, there is a major problem!
It could have something to do with your life circumstances, your relationships, your job or just a flood of “bad thinking” the is holding you there. No more! It’s uncomfortable AND unnecessary! Why are you choosing this over happiness?
Think on that for a while. And if you discover the answer and need some support (or need clarity and an outside perspective possible factors), let me know! With the Life Cleanse over, my schedule has opened up space for individual happiness & harmony boosters (1 hour single sessions with me..at a really insane rate of only $127 (I normally charge $250 per hour, but I’m feeling generous and this isn’t about the money for me!)).
