Hey guys, Vicky Murgatroyd here from Life Empowerment Project…I really want to just kick off today with 5 Things Conscious and Successful Business Women Are Doing That You Aren’t Yet.
The promise is, that when you start to implement these steps – these 5 things that conscious and successful business women do already – you are going to double your success.
And more importantly that doubling your success, you are going to double your opinion of yourself; as I’m sure you’ve heard me mention before, you being number one is absolutely essential.
So the 5 things:
#1. Conscious and successful business women congratulate themselves. Seems really really simple, and I’m sure you’re thinking aah well I sometimes do that…but I bet you don’t!
I bet you never slow down to consider how much you’re achieving! And that is absolutely key. When you recognise and focus on what it is that you’ve achieved, that’s what starts to come into your life more and more. It’s the whole ‘what you’re emitting is what you’re attracting’ – so when you’re focusing on what you’ve done well and how you can congratulate yourself and really taking the time to stop and recognise those things, more and more will flow to you – more of the good stuff!
So, super simple: congratulate yourself is number 1 of today’s 5.
Number 2: Another one along the same lines is to own your talents. How often are you told when we’re kids…be modest, don’t shout from the rooftops, don’t blow your own trumpet? However, blow your own trumpet! You are absolutely astounding. The fact that you’ve achieved so much is extraordinary, and the fact you continue to push yourself despite any setbacks or any roadblocks is just incredible. So own your talents! I really encourage you guys to write a list of all the things that you bring to the table. I do this with all my clients: write a list of 30 things – 30! – and don’t stop until you’ve got all 30 things that you bring to the table. Any skills, attributes, whatever you bring to the table. Now that is really important, because until you recognise what you bring to the table, the Universe will not recognise what you bring to the table. It’s all about your self worth and lining that up, because your self worth directly affects everything in your life. And you are extraordinary!
So go ahead, number 2 is to list 30 things that you bring to the table! This is really massively beneficial.
And the third of the 5 Things Conscious and Successful Business Women Are Doing, is setting their intention. This is something I learned, very randomly, from a yoga class. Going in there and setting your intention. And let me tell you, the difference between when I’d go into that class and I’d set my intention, and the difference between when I’d rush in and just chuck my map down and get t going is incredible. The mindset shifts, the physical shifts, everything. Set your intention! You should have daily intentions, weekly intentions, monthly intentions. But be flexible with this. Sometimes we write our selves a list and we’re really rigid with it. And this really inhibits our creativity. So set your intention as you go and make sure you know what you want to achieve throughout the week and you’re always aware of what your intention is. Your intention might not be, for instance I just mentioned, the list writing thing – it might not be specifically what you are going to do, but it might be that ‘I’ll push myself beyond any perceived limitations’. It might be to push myself; and as a result what I might to is commit to a speaking opportunity, or make those extra few phone calls to big companies that I really want to connect my business with. So whatever it is for you, set your intention, because it’s going to make a world of difference in your results.
Number 4, let’s get straight on into it. Write your goals down.
Now I just said about not writing lists necessarily, but writing your goals down is essential. I’ve got a whole blog on this so I’llj ust touch on it briefly, but you’re 97% more likely to achieve your goals if you write them down. It gets you more clear, it allows you to define them in the future and it keeps you focused and you’re committing to it when you write it down. So write your goals down, it makes a huge difference. And also, keep refining those goals – nothing should be fixed or set in stone because that’s not how it works in the real world! Keep refining your goals, allow them to evolve and change as you do!
Finally; last but certainly not least, is to know why. What’s your driving force, what is your absolute reason for doing what you’re doing? For me personally, my reason is all about sharing freedom. Because true freedom is nothing that you can conjure up outside of yourself, it is completely and utterly internal. I know that through personal experience – of having this work ‘done on me’ and getting to share this work with others. But you have to know why. That why is bigger than any how you will ever come across. When the ‘why’ is big enough, the ‘hows’ and ‘whats’ take care of themselves – I’m sure you’ve heard that saying before. Be really clear on why you’re doing what you’re doing. Think about big company’s mission statements – they are declaring why they are doing what they do. Your why will overpower any days where you’re feeling a lack of motivation or lack of inspiration, because you know your big future targets, and it just sets your sights there and gets you moving toward that continually.
So, I hope this has been helpful for you today! Before we finish up with today’s blog I want to just recap on the 5 Things Conscious Business Women Are Doing, and successful business women are doing, that you aren’t yet.
These are things that you can employ for massive massive success, and a boat load of happiness to go along side it.
Number 1: Congratulate yourself. Even on the little things – congratulate yourself. Make sure you’re recognising all the amazing steps you’re taking. What we tend to do is life the ‘mirage lifestyle’, which a few of you, if you’re signed up and on board with us, you’ll have heard me talk about in the exclusive content I’ve sent to you. We live that mirage lifestyle where we’re constantly looking ahead at the horizon and seeing what’s next, but we never actually recognise the massive steps that we’ve already taken. Until you get really grateful and aware of what you’re achieving, it’s going to be a struggle to get any further. So congratulate yourself, because you’re doing amazing things!
Number 2: Own your talents. As I said, write your list of 30 things you bring to the table. Skills, attributes, innate talents. Some of your talents will be things that you completely overlook because they come so naturally and easily to you, but from the outside looking in, they are a spectacular gift! So make a list of your skills, talents, attributes, everything – that’s number 2.
Number 3: Set your intention. Daily, weekly, monthly, yearly, five yearly…decade-ly! Set your intention. Always go into everything you do with a clear intention, otherwise you’re just flapping around without clear direction. So set your intention.
Number 4: Write your goals down. Very simple. It sounds way too simple, but so often the things that really make the difference are simple! Very simple little things you can implement that will immediately boost your productivity and success and return on your investments. So make sure you’re writing those goals down!
Number 5: Fifth and final of today’s 5 Things Conscious and Successful Business Women Are Doing That You Aren’t Yet: Number 5 is to know why. Be completely utterly and deeply passionately connected to your big why. Why are you doing what you’re doing? Know why you’re doing what you’re doing, otherwise the ‘hows’ and ‘whats’ get too big, too complex, too scary and basically all these things raise up in the way of your success. When you know why, it shrinks those things, it shrinks your fears, shrinks the insecurities, shrinks the doubt, because you know WHY you’re doing what you’re doing and that is such a powerful driving force.
I hope this has been massively helpful for you to know five things that you can implement now, that conscious and successful business women are already doing for huge results for themselves.
Thanks for tuning in guys and I can’t wait to see you in the next video. Take care!
