Episode 248: The Lesson in Less Doing and More Being

This episode was inspired by a recent coaching session and a conversation with one of my students who’s juggling two jobs and feeling like she can’t get ahead, and as a result, is not focused on the internal work that is the key to changing her situation.

Unfortunately, many of us fall into the DOING that keeps us on the hamster wheel of life which certainly will not bring us the life we desire. Because if it could, wouldn’t we have it by now?

So it’s time to try something new!!! And that is to start following the BE, DO, HAVE model that says you first must BE the future version of yourself that has the life you desire. When you step into that version of yourself, your actions are those that will attract the things you want so that you will HAVE them.

The mistake most people make is that they are behaving the way they’ve always behaved which is operating from an identity that has created their current reality. And they think that if they keep DOING the things they think need to be done, like work two jobs and run around frazzled and frustrated, they may eventually get what they want.

But operating with the same identity you’ve been operating with up until now, will not get you closer to your goals. You must change who you are BEING. 

Be the person who will attract the life you want. Get off the damn hamster wheel. And adopt the following behaviors that will attract what you want into your life:

• Write down what you want. Make it clear to the universe so it knows and can help you 
• Affirm what you want every day. State your desires as if they are already a part of your reality.
• Have a clear picture of the future reality you desire in your mind and visualize that picture regularly.
• Believe the universe has your back and wants to help you get what you want. You don’t have to do all of the heavy lifting. The more heavy lifting you do, the more likely you are to slack on the internal work that is necessary to create the reality you want.
