That’s the attitude, Confidence When It Counts, I want to help you achieve.

What Can Bring Back Confidence When You’ve Taken a Hit?

I’ve been asked a number of times to create a class to help people with their confidence levels, especially for those who have to call or meet with people.

Whether you’ve suffered a recent Confidence setback, need more confidence under pressure, or simply want to increase your confidence level, I’ve designed a class with a simple exercise I’d like to share with you, live.

If you’ve ever felt Confidence, you have a powerful tool you may not be using, that you can use to increase or reclaim your confidence level now.

And if you need confidence in a new area of your life, I’ve got a way for you to use what you’ve experienced in the past to prepave your desired result for the future, today.

Join me for an introductory 1 Hour – Confidence When It Counts Teleclass

This is an actual working class. Come prepared to roll up your sleeves, put your thinking cap on, listen to your heart, and look at your situation with fresh eyes. In this call we will explore:

  • What nurtures Confidence and what starves Confidence
  • An exercise that virtually guarantees Confidence anytime, anywhere.

You will take away:

  • Your own “In Case of Confidence Emergency” confidence resource

This is a live class. I’ll be opening the line for those who want to work with me to increase their confidence (or you can quietly work the process on your own, your choice). Come prepared to experience new insight, and a new, powerful way of working with your past to improve your future.

Can’t make the call? Sign up anyway and you’ll receive a special bonus.

Rich Vision Rich Pocket MasterMind Moments

argentFirst the Vision

Last week I began a new Mastermind group and after hearing from everyone about what they wanted to accomplish in the next 90 days with the support of the group, I led them on a brief visioning with the help of some vivid inner senses.

The rational brain can sometimes get in the way, by teaming up with it’s ally, the ego, and make a mockery out of our visualizations. That leaves them falling flat and ineffective.

Have Fun With It

To have some fun and get around that rational brain thinking too small, I called upon some senses that can be overlooked in “visualizations”; sound, touch, taste and even smell.

When was the last time you thought about what your vision of the future smelled like, tasted like, or felt like beneath your touch?

Needless to say, the whole group lit up with excitement over pink, yellow and even gold visions that smelled like fresh rain on steamy asphalt or vanilla waffle cones but downy or silky to the touch.

Get to The Glory

When the inner vision evokes that much passion, you know, energetically, that your “order to the Universe” is going to be received clearly.

Have some fun with it yourself. Or better yet, come join me and get the kind of support that supports you and your business.

I lead small, highly personalized, targeted and results-oriented groups each week for entrepreneurs, serious about creating dynamic changes in their businesses and personal lives. We have a great time and we get more done together than any of us could alone!

Not like any mastermind you’ve ever experienced; call me if you’d like to discuss whether this format might work for you and your business. 541-488-1678

Be A New You In the New Year!

sparkler in handYou’ve heard it before, be the change you want to see in the world. Just another way of saying if you want different results than last year, you must change.

You Can Teach a Dog of Any Age New Tricks!

So when did change become synonymous with hard, uncomfortable, and unpleasant? Is it no wonder we resist change?

Try this, take a moment and remember a particularly happy event, and I’m guessing if you backtrack in your memory a bit, you’ll also see that something in you changed before you experienced that blessed result.

Perhaps you prepared for a new baby, or planned to join your life as husband and wife with another? Maybe you took a course, changed jobs or moved.

Those were the actions that set you on a new course and brought new events to you. But before that, you changed who you were being.

New Year, New Patterns of Behavior, New Results

This year, I’m going to be exploring ways to bring about positive change that are not hard, uncomfortable, or unpleasant, but are in fact fun, easy, expanding, and life affirming. As you change yourself in all the ways you most want, your life experiences change in all the ways you want.

New Year Resolutions For Being

This year, join me in starting a list, not of what you’ll do, but of who you will become. Add to that behaviors you will endeavor to repattern and you’ll have an award winning recipe for change in the most enjoyable, effective and speedy way.

I’d love to hear your recipe for your new BEING this year.
Comment below or on Facebook. Would love to connect!

My sincere wishes for you all to enjoy a very
Happy, Healthy, and Prosperous New Year!

Shake It Up Baby, Twist and Shout!

October 30, 2011 by

cartwheels in the sandLast month I talked about River Rafting and what it has to teach us about moving faster than the stream to navigate the water, and that the way to get moving faster is with support.

This month I want to talk about how to change patterns and to get us started I’m going to share a rather startling experience I had this last weekend.

Shake It Up Baby!

Patterns are what control most of actions. We’re fairly well conditioned by age 11 and for most of us, we aren’t acting out of choice, but out of habit, patterns or conditioning.

Ever have that feeling you’re headed for a fall or crash but can’t seem to avoid it? That’s the work of patterning.

So how do you get out of patterning? Well you have to shake things up a bit. You have to give that conditioning some new options. And I’m going to talk about that some more later this week.

A Shake Up is what happened to me this last weekend as I was executing a simple Fall task, placing leaf netting beneath my Japanese Maple, atop my pond. But fortunately for me, despite the shake up, some patterning that I had intentionally put in place, came in handy.

Twist…

On moment I was bending down to straighten the net over the dark water and the next I was falling, face first towards the surface of the pond.

Time slowed as I felt my hand hit and dunk beneath the top of the dark water, as if I expected it to brace my fall.

Then muscle memory kicked in. I’ve practiced falling into moving water, river rafting so that I would flip and ride the rapids down on my back. All it took was for my hand to hit the cold, wet of the pond and I began to twist so when I came to rest, it was my tail end that was on the bottom of the pond and my face was above the surface.

…and Shout!

And good thing too. Because I was so surprised, I had begun to shout out and if my body hadn’t reacted, I would have been swallowing a big mouthful of dark green water!

For several moments I just sat and floated in the pond. My son kept asking me, “are you OK”, “are you OK”? and finally I burst out laughing; the whole thing was just so silly.

Isaac gave me a hand out across the slippery rocks at the pond’s edge.

As I stood dripping: cold, wet and laughing I was so thankful for my body’s patterned response. After a hot shower, I began to think about something a client said to me recently. He had called me for some couple’s coaching after a particularly nice date with his wife.

He said that both he and his wife wanted to work on skills, just as I had with my river rafting, so those skills were patterned into place if they came upon a more stressful time.

When I find myself experiencing something I don’t like, I try to remember that this is the perfect time to become aware, make a new choice or intention, and experiment with new actions: shake it up a bit, create room for a new pattern.

Easier, however, is to practice new patterns I want in place should I find need for them during a shake up I didn’t consciously plan.

You might be interested in no-charge teleclass this week, What’s Holding You Back? Bring a willingness for a new awareness around an issue you’d like to overcome and we’ll get busy changing any pattern that is keeping that issue stuck in place.

Please share your own stories of patterns you’ve overcome and how you overcame them below.
