High5 to a New You Year 2018

new you 2018

‘Without leaps of imagination or dreaming, we lose the excitement of possibilities’  Gloria Steinem

High5 to a NEW YOU 2018

I love the New Year or new beginnings. I get all excited to about the possibilities in life. A time for renewed hope and dreams. It is time for celebrations. Can you feel the excitement? Exhilaration? I am absolutely invigorated. I love the lightness that invoke a sense of brightness. We into the 3rd week of January 2018 already.

I am sure you have received tons of email about New Year 2018: change your life, transform your life, make it the best year ever, 5 steps to maintain New Year resolutions, 3 steps to create a new life in 2018 and many more telling you how to awesome 2018 can be. They all mean well and it’s great to have coaches, bloggers, and mentors to guide and encourage you. These emails can excite or sometimes it can create a feeling of overwhelming proportion when the mountain ahead of us appears too large to summit.

Let’s take a step back. Clear our minds of:

1) What should be and how it should.
2) All the stories you have been telling yourself since it’s the New Year.
3) Are you feeling the pressure when people ask what are the plans for 2018

Step 1 – Set your intention

Reflect on 2017. What lessons have you learnt? Are there some things that will continue in the New Year? Do you still want the same things? What do you want in life? It all starts with what you want in life. Then you have the choice in creating what you want in life. What is your deepest desires? What does your heart yearn for? It starts from the heart. Think about what it is you want. Think & Feel your intensions. Set your intention. It’s a great starting point.

Step 2 – List your dreams

Be bold and big. Write down every dream you can think of. From a dream date with your favourite movie star to owning a Ferrari. Submitting Mount Everest or going to Cordon Blue School in Paris. Travelling to Amazon jungle to volunteering for WHO. Stop analysing just write it all down. There is no wrong or right dream. If you have thoughts this is not me or this is not for me. Just ignore them for now. Select one to three dreams from the list. The ones where the music is clear and booming.

Step 3 – The BIG WHY

Now read the dreams aloud. Sensing and feeling when you read each dream out loud. Write how this dream would transform your life. For example, owning your own business can give you financial security or financial freedom. It can empower you buy your dream home. It can make you feel independent, talented, successful, have your own personal identity. Think if your dream came true, how you would feel. What would change in your life as a result of your aspirations coming alive? This is Your BIG WHY! Why do you want this dream to come alive? The BIG WHY is the key ingredient to keep you motivated and committed to the dream when you feel like giving up.

Step 4 – See Your New Life

Sit quietly and reflect as if the dream has already come alive. Live in the happiness, the success and whatever feeling the dream invokes. Picture where your friends, where you are, how does the environment and atmosphere feel. Imagine having the correct people and things to make your wish to come true. How does it look, feel, taste, and smell? Sense the dream as if it’s already part of your life. Feel the BIG Why. Listen to your body for messages for how to achieve the dream. Hear the music inside you. Release struggle and resistance. Let there be happiness, ease and flow in your visualisation.

Step 5 – Take the first step

All things are achieved one action at a time. BE BIG & BOLD take the first step.

Each day each step adds up, and just like putting one foot, one step ahead of the other on your path, soon you will be on the top of the mountain, looking down at your accomplishment with self-satisfaction and self-respect.

I’m here today to help you plant the flag in the top of your mountain, by encouraging you to take the first step. Why not you!? You were born for greatness. You were born to impact this world. Dare to leave your mark. Your Legacy! Dare to Dream. You have a dream inside of you that only you can achieve.

So, what will your first step be today?

NEW YOU 2018

15 Qualities of AUDACIOUS SUCCESSFUL Women

Posted by Anjana Lala on

AUDACIOUS SUCCESSFUL Women

Audacious women are successful. I have witnessed so many women online, professional women, celebrities, women in my life, I have read about them, watched them on TV. Audacious women who inspire me are Ellen DeGeneres, Oprah, Jane Goodman, Amelia Earhart, Junko Tabei, Zinc heroes – Sister Sudha Varghese, Coco Chanel, unlikely heroes, dreamers, and doers. These are ordinary women with extraordinary qualities.

Here are their extraordinary qualities that I think are common to these powerful ordinary women:

  1. They have big dreams
  2. They are confident and highly curious
  3. They believe in themselves
  4. They live by their own rules
  5. They are alive and full of vitality
  6. They are highly motivated
  7. They don’t sweat the small stuff
  8. They just do it – Keeping it simple and organised
  9. They understand the duality of failure and success
  10. They take themselves seriously – consistent and persistent
  11. They are continually learning and flexible
  12. They understand connection is currency
  13. They know where and how to direct their energies in life.
  14. They play on their strengths and talents
  15. They continually challenge themselves to new success stories

 

These audacious women are seemingly tireless, relentlessly dedicated and endlessly curious. There’s always more, always better, always further to go further to reach further to climb…

The amazing part of this whole story is that these ladies are just like you and me (ordinary). Their extraordinary lives were not handed to them on a silver platter. They struggled, strained & stressed on their journey to success. They are ordinary people living extraordinary lives. They’re highly intelligent and sharply focused. From a distance, it may seem they have magical powers or come across as superwoman. But they ordinary women with extraordinary character and mind.

They have clarity of mind, strength of character and surety of passion & purpose.

Are you an Audacious Successful Woman?

15 Things Successful Women STOP DOING

15 things successful women stop doing

15 Things Successful Women STOP DOING

Stop doing what you doing if it’s not working!

“Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.” Albert Einstein

Learning from your experience is such a powerful skill. Many successful women acquire a “realisation” (over time) – they stop the old way of doing things. It’s a moment of splendour, insight and a huge AHA moment. It’s so great to be in this space. Can you imagine the possibilities and opportunities for new dreams and goals?

Here are the universal lessons that successful smart women learn and grasp. Its these insights that drive them to thrive in life. Propel them to flourish and prosper.

Successful women STOP …

  1. Doing things, the old way that did not work
  2. Relying on the outer world for validation and approval
  3. Being all things to all people
  4. Complaining , comparing and being a copycat
  5. Trying to be perfect
  6. Trusting anybody or anything that seems too perfect
  7. Focusing on short gratification and keep their sight on their long-term vision
  8. Being distracted by short term disruptions and instant results
  9. Trying to change other people
  10. Assuming and expecting. They act, measure, revolve, adjust & move forward.
  11. Doing everything themselves. They learn to delegate and ask for help.
  12. Letting circumstances define them.
  13. Blaming others and themselves for their mistakes. They acknowledge, accept learn and move on
  14. Carelessly and thoughtlessly trusting the venture. They gather relevant information that would impact them personally
  15. Pleasing others. They remain true to their own self, values and ethics

Smart successful women are not superwoman. They are human like you and me. They mess up like you and me. These women feel the pain of messing up like you and me. Smart women don’t want to experience pain again. They are willing to understand what caused it, change their game plan never to repeat it again……

What are you willing to stop doing to be successful?

Is Money Spiritual?

Posted by Anjana Lala on

MONEY IS SPIRITUAL

Is Money Spiritual?

A common belief held by many people (globally) is that money and spirituality cannot live together

Money is evil. If you’re spiritual, you shouldn’t want abundance. It’s being greedy. (I used to believe it myself in the past but with experience I have changed my mind)

I can just imagine you cringing with this topic. Making you anxious, feeling uneasy and awkward. You can feel being exposed or you could be losing something valuable something very dear to your heart. It’s a common conversation that we do not want to have with ourselves or with others. It can change things very quickly and can be extremely scary. I am taking a risk today and just writing about something that is very uncomfortable for me. I have had a doubtful relationship with money most of my life…

My role models in my growing years did not have a great relationship with money or wealth. It took a long time for me to figure out the value and meaning of money and owning wealth. To hear my own inner truth and voice to have a meaningful relationship with money.

My personal belief is that money is connected to my inner truth and voice (spiritual). In fact, I’ve found that when money is consciously created and used, it complements very well with spirituality. The reason this is a courageous conversation to have is because if we feel that money is bad (even slightly), we’ll have a hard time creating financial abundance.

We’ll secretly feel like we should keep money at a distance.

We’ll experience guilt when we do make money.

People close to us will not like or love us if we have lots of money

Having lots of money can turn us into a bad person

And we’ll never be able to be at peace on the subject of money.

This is no way to live or feel about yourself. And it’s definitely not spiritual.

In this blog, I’ll give you 3 examples of why wealth and spirituality are highly-compatible. By understanding that

money and spirituality compliment one another,

you’ll open the gates to attract more money & wealth into your life.

1) Your Being is Infinitely Abundant.

As a spiritual being, you are completely and infinitely abundant. You are abundantly gifted with Love, Peace, Power, Truth, Wisdom, Fulfilment, and Bliss. Do you think this part of us identify with being poor? No! It’s the ego that feels limited & small (financially, and otherwise).

When you feel spiritually abundant within yourself, you find richness in life. Creating prosperity in the form of money and wealth in the outside world.

2) Spirituality & Money is about expansion,

Your being wants to expand and grow; it does so by having many life experiences. In this lifetime, money is a tool that allows you to fulfil your dreams and desires.

Does this mean that money makes everything perfect?  Oh NO!

Does it mean that money is your main source of happiness? Absolutely not!

Money is simply a tool/resource that will help you have some of the life experiences (dreams, desires, goals, plans) you want to have.

Money is definitely not the answer to everything, but it’s not futile either. Financial resources give you the opportunity and possibility to have many life adventures. The growth and expansion that occurs as a result of these experiences is part of a spiritual life and attitude.

3) Money is energetically neutral

Money itself isn’t good or bad. It’s only paper – there is no consciousness. It’s neutral. It’s the value and meaning that we attach to money makes it good or bad. How we choose to use money that determines whether it feels “good” or “bad.”

How money is made or used can be positive or negative energetically – its either used in an ego-centric, selfish way or in a positive, loving way. It’s basically an extension of your energy, so the way you choose to use money is ultimately what determines the vibration it carries.

We need to remember that money itself is not good or bad; it’s merely a tool that we’re using in this lifetime. If you use money in a way that enhances your own life and lives of others, then a powerful, spiritual tool is exactly what money will be.

Over to You
