#6  questions to get aware of your non supportive habits

Our attitude is built up by a multitude of habits. Most of the time we live on autopilot and do our daily stuff automatically. Often we’re not aware of our bahaviour and habtis and they can keep us away from the results we really want out of life. We all have 24 hours each day and why is that some get successful and others get lost?

When I think of my own behaviour there are also a few who can be improved. For example my internet use. When I open FB, email in the morning or any other time of the day, I can lose time reading, clicking posts and answering messages. After some time I realize that I had to accomplish other, more important tasks, first. And at least 45 minutes more are gone.

Ask yourself these 6 questions:

1.    Are you aware of your behaviour and your habits?

2.    Which of them aren’t supportive?

3.    Through which of them you won’t get the results you really want?

4.    In what way do these behaviours and habits create distraction in your life?

5.    How do you lose time?

6.    Do you have an action list?

Take 2 pieces of paper, one for the NON SUPPORTIVE ones and one for the SUPPORTIVE ones. Again close your eyes for 4 or 5 minutes, breath in through your nose and longer out through your mouth. Be in silence for this time and be honest to yourself.

Write all these non supportive ones on a piece of paper and write down the way you like to see them changed in supportive ones, on the other paper.

Burn or tear the paper with not supportive ones apart, it is symbolic. Stick the supportive ones on a wall of your office, somewhere you can read them often. It helps you to remind of your new intentions.

It takes 21 till 30 days to change a habit, so start with one or two first. Every time you fail, start over again. Discipline, dedication and perceverance are required to fulfill your goal. And when you feel stuck….read your vision, look at your moodboard, listen to your recording or what ever you made and you will feel more motivated and inspired.

Know that you are born perfect, with a great reservoir of infinite potential. Believe in yourself and your future goal

 #10 ways to maintain your purpose in life.

When you discovered your goal, uncovered were you are good at, opened up your unique talents, the reason why you are here and the realisation of your uniqueness, how will you maintain your Lifepurpose?

The answer is:” By ‘feeding’ it every day!”

Some examples of how to do this are:

1.  Make a mood board by cutting and glueing pitcures expressing your Lifepurpose. Put it on the wall or ceiling, a place where you can see the pictures often. One picture is worth a 1000 words!
2.  Write down your goal in detail in the present tense. Where do you want to be in 3 years from now? What do you like to have, do, see, create, live, how do you want to serve humanity and how does it feel?
3.  Make a goal card from this detailed goal with your concisely shown worthy ideal. Put it in your pocket or bag and every time you touch it you will be reminded of you Life Purpose.
4.  Make a recording of your goal in detail and play it as much as you can.
5. Create a MindMovie (http://www.MindMovies.com) a wonderful way to see your purpose while working at your computer.
6.  Put your worthy Ideal at the the screen of your computer so you can read it every day.
7. Before you go to bed, read your detailed Life Purpose. Your subconscious will work on it at night and install it in your system.
8. Do this again immediately after you wake up so you will feel energized in accomplishing your goal.
9. Write down your worthy Ideal 25 times each morning before you get out of bed and 25 times each evening before you go to sleep. It will inspire your ambition which is the fuel to move forward to your dream.
10. See that your goal is a reality already and feel it. Most of us think that it is the Law of attraction and it really is the Law of vibration. Our emotions, feelings create our world. So be careful with your thoughts, feelings and actions, you are the one who is listening and acting.

And above all: “YOU HAVE TO HUNGRY”  as my mentor Les Brown always tells us. “LOVE YOURSELF, YOU HAVE GREATNESS WITHIN! “

How many LIMITING BELIEFS do you have?

We all recognize this: ‘the voice inside our head’ This voice produces stories we start to believe in, we make it our truth. And the question is:” Is it really the truth, can we think for someone else and are our emotions maybe playing tricks on us? What is this voice telling us about ourselves, the situations we get in, how do we perceive the world? 

Some examples are:

•   I’m not good enough or beautiful enough.

•   I’m to young or to old.

•   There is not enough time to do this.

•   I don’t have the energy.

•   Just act normal it’s already crazy enough.

According to Bruce Lipton, the writer of the book: ”The biology of belief”, these beliefs are the programming of our educators, the people who raised us during the first 6 years of our life: our parents, grandparents, teachers, etc. These are beliefs of someone else, stored in our subconscious and we took them as the truth and live from it every day over and over again. Ninety five percent of the time we live from our subconscious and even the organs in our body get directed by this layer. Great isn’t it! Due to every experience we perceive, we react from our programming created by the beliefs of others.

When we are dissatisfied with our results, it is good to take a look at our unsupportive beliefs which are holding us back from the one we really want to be. It’s important to stop the voice in our head telling us why we can’t do the things we need or want to do in order to live our dream, our goal in life. Change the not supportive beliefs in supportive, healthy and stimulating ones.

Take 2 pieces of paper and close your eyes for 5 min. Take 3 deep breaths in through your nose and longer out through your mouth. Be in silence, get in touch with yourself and ask yourself:

•   How do I really see myself, what am I telling about myself?

•   How do I feel about my work, relationships?

•   How do I perceive the world?    

•   Do I really speak for myself or am I trying to fit in?

Open your eyes and write out all of these unhealthy, unsupportive and limiting beliefs. Burn them, this gives a feeling of inner cleaning. Take the other paper and write down new supportive, healthy and stimulating beliefs. Beliefs which will inspire you to live your vision. Put them on the wall, mirror or whatever is good for you, a place where you are able to read them frequently. It helps you to feel good about yourself and implement the action steps.

Go for it, you are worth it!
