Get up and go

So to say that business has been slow, is a bit of an understatement. When I set out to start my business as a life coach, I knew that I would face challenges of starting a new business, but I never anticipated such a drastic down turn in the economy. In order to stay afloat, I am finding the need to be extremely resourceful in my marketing tactics, and slowly it’s paying off. 

What is helping me the most is asking for what I want, and focusing my energy and intention towards that goal of gaining new clients.  In coaching there is a model that we use in order to set the ball in motion of getting what we want, it’s called the I+A=M model or the Intention + Attention = Manifestation.

Right now my intention is to gain new clients so that I can promote my business and so that I can help people live fulfilled lives.  I stay positive, and continue to seek out new ways to introduce coaching to all who are willing to listen. I am also taking advantage of this down time to focus on my well-being.  I know that I am only able to give my best when I feel my best.  I have a choice every day when I wake up, I can sit around and wait for client’s to fall into my lap, which hasn’t really happened yet, or I can choose to be active in promoting myself and continue to model living a fulfilled life for myself and for my potential clients. When I am clear on my intention, and why it’s important to me, focusing my attention towards my goal becomes easy and gratifying.

So yeah, things are tough right now and they are tough for everyone.  I believe that what I have to offer the world is so valuable that I am motivated and encouraged to do all that I can to get business. I also believe that it is important to give a little to get a little.  

Here are a few things to think about:

Where in your life are you focusing your attention?

If you could ask for what you want, what would you ask for?

How do you support yourself when you feel down?

How do you find motivation to get up and go?

 

I hope you are all well, and enjoying life. It is finally summer here in Seattle, which is pretty nice if you ask me.

 

I invite you to share your thoughts on the blog, let’s get a conversation started.
