Thoughts, feelings and success!

“Oh God! What will I do if Philip drops dead on me?”

This was my first thought the other morning on wakening. Not a great start to the day! Previously, I’d heard about a colleague who had suddenly died, this had reminded me of someone who had also died suddenly last year, and before I knew it I was worrying about what I’d do if my partner died.

Didn’t expect it to have such an impact at the beginning of my day though!

Anyway, I lay there worrying for a while (5 minutes probably) then got out of bed with the intention of going for a walk to ‘clear my head’.

Have you ever noticed that when you’re trying to [read more]

What if…

Usually we talk about what if… and then what follows is something depressing.

This is a phrase associated with a worry thought, normally, ie what if…I lose my house; what if… I get made redundant; what if…I can’t find a job; what if…no clients come to me; what if…I can’t find consulting rooms.

But what if… this phrase was associated with things that are wonderful?

I’ve discovered an amazing website that suggests this and much more. It’s called the What If Up club. Instead of thinking ‘what if DOWN thoughts, you think what if UP thoughts instead! Talk about Rich Thinking!

Very inspiring!

Business growth through singing?

‘Going singing instead of to a marketing meeting?’

‘Are you crazy? ’ A little voice in my head said. From the outside, attending a live singing event last night instead of driving to Inverness to a marketing network meeting definitely did NOT seem the right thing to do in terms of growing my business.

But as soon as I’d been singing for ten minutes, I knew I’d made the right decision. My heart soared, I felt immensely grateful I’d chosen to sing, and I knew all over again why I’m alive and what is my purpose on this earth. Wow! How’s that for the result of a decision!

Anyway — the reasoning behind this is applicable in any situation. I’d [read more]

Thinking yourself rich and slim!

I was walking back home through the trees and across the park, my mind meandering as it does sometimes.

Suddenly I realised I was thinking about losing a bit of weight, and remembered that in the hypnotherapy CD I’d been listening to, I’d been imagining myself in a particular pair of trousers I can fit into when I’ve lost a few pounds. I brought to mind that image, and realised I needed to get used to it in my mind’s eye first before it could happen in physical reality.

Ding! Yes — even though I’ve known this kind of thing intellectually for ages, it was one of those moments when you reach a different level of understanding.

Then I thought [read more]

Rich Thoughts about trying!

posted on 7 September 2008

Sitting at the breakfast table this morning, I realised I was ‘trying to get on top of everything’ that has to be done business-wise.

Then I thought

‘What about if there is no everything to get on top of?’

And of course there isn’t. It’s just my perception. Immediately, by changing this thought I am freed from the pressure that comes with the first sentence. Aaaah! Lovely!

Of course, it doesn’t mean I just sit back and take it easy. (Although I could, and then there would be consequences of that). No, it means that I get to revisit what I want to achieve, prioritise it, and then commit to taking action on the priorities.

So I wonder — do [read more]
