Let Go Of All Hope……

I was introduced to the Law of Attraction about 10 years ago when I started studying NLP. One of the ‘mantras’ of NLP is that your Perception is your Projection. In other words whatever you put out there with your thoughts is what you will make into your reality, or to put it another way, whatever life you have is exactly what you have created for yourself. Now this is a fairly hard thing to get your head around and believe me I’ve seen people have huge arguments against it when they refuse to believe that they can’t blame some or all of the bad stuff that has happened to them on someone other than themselves, but I like it, I really like the fact that my life is what I have created in my mind because when it goes bad its no one elses fault but my own, and if thats the case then I don’t have to rely on anyone else to make it go really well, its all down to me and I like being that much in control of my own life.

So how an the law of attraction how or hinder you in business? When I was counselling I also used to hear people say that they couldn’t be happy until X….. , until they found the right partner, until they had children, until they lost 10 pounds etc, there was always an excuse and I still hear similar things now that I’m coaching. People tell me that their business will be successful when they have the right office, when they are able to afford a new PC, when they have a new studio, when they have made their first £10k etc etc, but the truth is there is absolutely NOTHING and I mean NOTHING stopping you from being successful right now.

One thing I always ask new clients is where do you want to be? Want do you want your business to look like in 5 years time? Invariably people answer me by saying “Well I HOPE that I will have …….” HOPE! Is that the best you can do with your dreams? HOPE for them????   Lets think about the word hope for  a minute, think about something that you HOPE will happen and conjure up an image of it in your mind, really associate with this thing that you HOPE will happen – got it?  Ok now think of that same dream and EXPECT it to happen, conjure up all the feelings and emotions associated with and and see what is there, hear the sounds and really FEEL this dream that you EXPECT to happen? Which felt better? Which felt more achievable?

The law of attraction EXPECTS your dreams to happen, it listens to all your dreams and hears that you are expecting them to happen that it gets to work asap. Some people use dream boards to keep their goals in the forefront of their mind, other manifest every day,other use journals, whatever works for you but the most important thing is do it consistently, abandon all hope and start EXPECTING!!

Are You Sabotaging Your Own Success?

Years ago when I had one of my first businesses I realised I was always doing ok but never really great, it seemed that I would get a breakthrough and then something would happen to scupper it and this cycle continued for years. It wasn’t until I started studying NLP and become a Master Practitioner in it that I learnt to do some real soul searching about the pattern of my success…..

At the time I was in a ‘challenging’ relationship to say the least and the person I was with earnt a LOT of money and was very controlling, he helped me with training courses but when my business started doing well he resented it and it caused problems in our relationship that led to terrible arguments. I eventually realised that because of this I actually started sabotaging my OWN success! The relationship was important to me and so was my success but the two just weren’t compatible and sub-consciously I chose the relationship. It wasn’t until I really looked within myself and decided that actually my relationship was NOT how I wanted it, I wanted someone that WOULD support me and be happy for me when I succeeded and so I decided that I would really put everything into my business (by this time it was Wedding Planning) and that if my relationship was a casualty of my success then so be it…… it was!  My long term relationship (16 years!) collapsed and I ended up with a thriving business and a single life, which has turned out just perfect for me now because I am now in the fabulous position of having the man and relationship of my dreams and a successful business to boot!

The point of my long, rambling story is that sometimes you have to really look within yourself and be uncomfortably honest with yourself. Is the business empire you dream about REALLY compatible with the life and relationships you currently have? Does it mean you will have to spend less time with family and friends etc? I’ve coached people in the past that have been brought up to believe that money IS the root of all evil, how can you develop a successful business with THAT belief firmly planted in your subconscious? The truth is you can’t, you will always keep sabotaging your own success until you recognise the belief and clean it up!

So…. today, have a self assessment day! What will it take for you to achieve all your dreams and what do you see standing in the way of it? Of course you CAN have it all, its just a matter of recognising your limiting beliefs and finding the right path for you!

Where Will You Soon Be?

Today I came across these lovely words and thought them so appropriate for January 1st that I just had to publish them on the blog – Happy New Year Everyone – I hope 2011 brings you everything you want x


A small effort now can make a big difference later. You can dramatically increase the effectiveness of your actions simply by taking them sooner.

As you go through the moments of this day, you are creating many of the circumstances in which you will live tomorrow. A few small, positive actions right now can bring great value as you move forward.

You cannot change where you already are. Yet you can have a significant and dramatic effect on where you will soon be.

Live this moment with joy, with purpose and with passion. And use this moment to inject into your life and your world the kind of substance and value that can last a lifetime.

You cannot instantly change your circumstances. You can, however, instantly change the direction in which you’re headed.

Point yourself firmly and resolutely in the direction of your dreams. For where you choose right now to go, is where you will soon be.

– Ralph Marston

Confidence or Arrogance?

Did anyone else watch X-Factor this weekend? Of course you did – millions and millions of us watch it every weekend to see peoples dreams raised and dashed. Well this weekend was slightly different because one of the original front runners, Danyl, was having a complete confidence crisis after apparently being bashed all week in the papers. He was originally bashed for being over confident and has taken a real knock and this week came out like a frightened mouse so people felt sorry for him and voted for him -how mixed up is that?
X-Factor is not a talent contest,it a likeability contest and all that matters is how the contestants connect with the audience that are voting – and thats life unfortunately – people like or dislike us according to how we connect with them.
At Bombshell Academy workshops we cover body language and the unconscious signals you give are incredibly important if you want to build rapport with someone. If you avoid eye contact then people don’t trust you, even if you avoid eye contact because you may be shy, make a real effort, but having said that don’t over do it. Try not to fidget too much when talking to someone, again people think you are are not being open and honest.

Confidence is not about being right all the time or knowing everything or being the best at everything. Confidence is about discovering who the real you is and really liking what you find – its about having courage to stick to your beliefs and values and the knowledge to know what they are in the first place and it’s NOT about thinking or believing that you are better than other people. True confidence is that air of certainty you have that the person that loves you most is yourself.

The most important thing about likeability and confidence is being your true authentic self,no pretense or falseness – just the real you – it’s the most attractive thing in the world to people.
