Your Body Never Lies

It's kind of scary knowing that almost everyone I talked to is either sick, or knows someone who has this dreaded cold.  Are we all connected? I've had the fever, exhaustion, low energy that turned into sleepless nights due to a hacking cough for the past 12 days.  My body is telling me something.

Well, what is it?

It's time for a clean slate, a new start.  What I was doing, wasn't working.  It wasn't creating the level of success that is meant for me.  I was starting to live old habits again - old thought patterns.  Ones that kept me playing small, putting labels on things/relationships, trying to control, force, or down right be a person on her pedestal.   So getting sick, put me in bed, wondering why am I sick, what is my body telling me. 

Now I know.

There is a life for everyone one of us - to claim, to live, to embrace, to love.  I love my life, I really do. But it's coming at a cost of playing it small, and I'm done with that.  There are many people that are feeling what I am, and it's my drive to share with them that there is a better way.  Yes, we are all connected.

Our bodies never lie.  If you don't trust your mind, your ego, or yourself because our mind can create and manipulate to keep itself safe, at least you can trust your body.  It doesn't lie.

When You Give Back

I remember listening to Tony Robbins and he was talking about hitting a (financial) plateau at different points in his career.  Do you what changed it for him?  When he didn't make it about him.  His goals were about helping others.  First, it was with the birth of his son.  Another time it was about feeding kids...and then feeding 1 million kids.  Each time, his salary increased.

In the last interview I heard him say that he fed 42 million kids in his lifetime.  That's really impressive, and it is certainly is giving back. Guess what?  Now, his goal is to feed 42 million kids in one year!!  What do you think will happen to his income?!

Imagine that feeling -- from the financial wealth but more importantly from his spirit, how fulfilling.  

I have certain financial goals, and they are started conservative - $100K/year, then to $250K/year.  Which was a process.  And then I thought about things that are important to me - environment, right to know what is in our food such as GMO's, having the choice if we want our kids vaccinated, our rain forests.... my goal grew to $100K/month.  

After hearing Tony, I think I need to even stretch my goals even bigger.  It's not about me.  It's about what I can do for this planet and for others.
