Goal Setting Made Easy!

Whether you are a CEO in training, an aspiring dancer, or an up and coming artist; you want to work at a steady progressively inclined pace towards your bigger picture. By now, we all should know that "Progress is indeed a Process" and "Patience is a Virtue". I'm sure have no desire to  rush to get nowhere fast - So fast that you miss the substantial work that's required behind this "busyness" everyone wants to somehow portray.  And I am also pretty sure we all know at least one person who is always so busy - busy - busy doing this, busy doing that but lacks productivity. 

When we think about setting goals we tend to have these huge, lavish, extraordinary goals in mind. Indeed, we should definitely "think big" but it's going to be those smaller goal-oriented accomplishments that will foster us into that bigger extraordinary thought! It's a very simple technique to set goals and it works - so here it goes:

• Write down your major long-term goal(the extraordinary one)
• Under your long-term goal, write down what it will take to fully accomplish this goal.(These are your secondary long-term goals) Ask yourself questions such as: "Do I need some type of skill, trade, certification, or degree for this goal?
• Directly following under your secondary goal, write out what it will take to get that goal accomplished. For example, if your secondary goal is to invest in a vehicle to open your own Mobile Pet Grooming Service (the extraordinary goal) then, you would write out what it will take to purchase a car or van. (down payment, co-signer, credit check, etc) You can't be mobile without some sort of vehicle right?

Do you see the pattern?

Once you have identified your goal, all you are then doing is breaking down what it will take to fulfill that goal. By the time you are done, you will have a ladder full of goals (short-term & long-term) 

• Create a feasible timeline and organize your goals by dates. 
• Hang your timeline somewhere visible where you are engaging daily. (office, closet door, back of bathroom door, mirror, etc)  

Is it becoming clearer to you? The key is to (mentally) START at the top and visualize that it's already done. The only thing you are doing is navigating your way through the physical work.  

Now it's time to manifest! ;)   

Working your way up to larger sized goals is an important process. It is also a process that is over-looked often because this is where the true grind lies - in the work. 

As always, i encourage and implement these teachings to my clients and with much practice, they not only become goal setters but more importantly they become goal accomplishers!

Be Connected!

During my adolescent years, I cherished a short cartoon film by the name of Red Shoes. I have found very few people who remember this cartoon. It was such a warm heart felt story and i watched it almost everyday for years. It was narrated by Ossie Davis and at the beginning he started off by saying: "We humans have to feel connected - connected in such a way or else we might as well be dead". 

Little did I know that this phrase would stay with me for many years to come only to begin to come full circle as I reach pre-adulthood.

We are creations of light sent here to shine. Are you realizing this yet?

Being "connected" for your soul's purpose. 

When you are connected to the right beings, it brings out more of you; that in which the Creator gifted you with. 

Check out Native Sun's latest music video: Lightness of Happiness It has been giving me life since it was premiered. Believe me, it is doing exactly what it is suppose to be doing and that's elevating minds, touching souls and lifted spirits. 

On the flip side (which we know there is a dualistic nature with EVERYTHING) we don't want to become energy sucking vampires now do we? Absolutely not! I have seen people who will force themselves and their friendships onto others. We want to connect with that in which feels nature to both parties. Connect with that in which you seek. 

Connections are great if they are the right connections. Be wise and not foolish to who you seek a connection with. Sometimes we can be so desperately searching that we blindly walk into a situation that could have been avoided. If this should happen to you - learn the lesson and move on.

I would like to end in gratitude. I am always divinely guided when making connections and I have been gifted with strong instinctive senses to know who to keep and who to let go. And as YOU work more and more on yourSELF, you too will increase your "spider senses" and will be able to make wise decisions based off your intuition that we were blessed with. 

GoodBye for now,
