There’s No Scarcity of Opportunity to Make a Living at What You Love. . .

Here’s a quote by Dr. Wayne Dyer that I believe has the power to change lives if taken to heart:

“There is no scarcity of opportunity to make a living at what you love; there’s only scarcity of resolve to make it happen.”

Would you agree? And, would you take it to heart and resolve to go after whatever it is that you love and persevere until you are successful? And do you know how?

What I believe Dr. Dyer is saying here is that every one of us has plenty of opportunity presented to us if we resolve to go forward no matter what and if we are able to recognize opportunity when it presents itself.

Opportunities are presented to us to help us learn, grow, expand our thinking, and ultimately to achieve our goals, to fulfill our dreams, and to live out our passions.

But, many of us are simply not able to recognize opportunity when it presents itself because we just plain are not aware of how to recognize it or how it takes place to begin with.

What is it we are missing or not recognizing that causes us to not know opportunity when we see it or not have the personal power to pursue what we want?

We are not recognizing the power we hold within ourselves to rise up, have complete faith, persevere, and know that we are capable of creating anything our heart desires.

One of my main purposes in coaching people is to help them become aware of how they can empower themselves by shifting their thinking and changing their perspective—-to recognize their power within.

When we do this, we are empowered to recognize the opportunities that are presented to us, grasp those opportunities, and put them to work in creating extraordinary lives.

Part of what most of us need more than anything else to become empowered in this capacity is an understanding of our inner spirit, the strength provided by unwavering faith, and the inherent potential we hold to be, do, or have anything we choose to be, do, or have.

This is our power within!

But, it is up to us to rise above anything that we believe might stand in our way.

It is up to us to recognize that faith in ourselves and in our higher spirit or God or whatever you choose to call this higher spirit is at our disposal and will carry us through anything that might stand in our way.

“Faith is the belief that you have the power to do all things. It is a magnetic power that attracts the answer to your prayer.” From the book “God Works Through Faith” by Robert A. Russell

Here’s another quote from Dr. Dyer that may help put this into perspective for you:

“Everything in the Universe has a purpose. Indeed, the invisible intelligence that flows through everything in a purposeful fashion is also flowing through you.”

These are all powerful statements, but if you adopt this mentality, learn about your inner spirit, and become aware, you will soon be empowered and on your way to resolving that you can create anything—anything—you want. THIS is your power within!

It’s All About Choices

Do you take time to carefully consider the choices you make? Do you go inside and ask your intuition for guidance? There’s a choice in every situation and every choice brings a different outcome, so do take time to choose wisely. And remember to honor any “gut feeling” or “hunch” you get or have. This is your intuition at work. It will never lead you astray.

To your success, fulfillment, and happiness. . .

You May Eventually Get to Be Boss

“By working faithfully 8 hours a day you may eventually get to be boss and work 12 hours a day.” ~ Robert Frost

If you’re not familiar with the theory of trading hours for dollars, this quote represents a good example of it. Think about it. You may come to the conclusion that you’ve got more to offer and would rather earn your living doing something that’s purposeful and that you love. It sure sounds better than slaving your life away working for someone else doesn’t it? Food for thought.

To your success, fulfillment, and happiness. . .

Valuable Tools For Success

What’s the best way to get yourself feeling better if you’re down in the dumps? Have you tried stopping in your tracks and summoning images in your mind of all the things you want in life? It doesn’t matter what it is or what they are. It could be new friends, a new job, a bigger paycheck, your own business, a dream vacation–it just doesn’t matter; what matters is that you get yourself into the place of seeing, trusting in, and believing in your goals and dreams again. And, it doesn’t cost you a dime to summon those images and regain those feelings, but it’s surely one of the most valuable tools you have in getting what you want.

The Top 2 Ways to Know if You Are a Leader

Before getting to my topic for this post, I’d like to take a minute to make some important announcements! First, I’m very excited to let you know I have a new book coming out entitled “The Intuitive Guide to Extraordinary Success in Life and Business.” It will soon be available at Amazon, both in book form and also on Kindle, and will also be available on the Resources page at my website, http://www.LifeYourWayCoaching.com, so stay tuned for the upcoming release date.

Second, my website is presently in the process of being converted to a custom WordPress site and will have some great new features, one of which will be my “in-house” blog where all my posts will soon be located. Please watch for a post on this blog announcing dates for release of my new book and also the launch of the new website where you’ll find my latest posts and also an archive of recent posts as well as other great content and my services.

And now, let’s get to today’s topic: leadership.

Have you over the course of time questioned whether or not you are a leader? Perhaps you think you are but you haven’t claimed it or made it known?

Do you have something you bring to people that helps them grow and expand, improves their perception of themselves, and helps them stand out, shine, or move to the next level and take action that most would not take?

Do you teach them the key elements of being the best they can be, becoming who they are to become, and seeing their life and the world from a higher or perhaps more sophisticated perspective than they used to?

When I earned my first coaching credential and put myself out there for the whole world to see, I considered myself a professional life coach.

But as time progressed and I gave more consideration and hence more credence to my coaching qualities and life experience in addition to my professional training, I began to reassess what it is that I bring to my clients.

In other words, what was the one thing that was clearly notable about what I offer them? What I discovered is that in addition to professional coaching skills, I offer them leadership.

During that discovery process, I asked myself these two questions:

1) What experience and qualities do I bring to people that set me apart or raise the bar? and

2) What results do I see because of them?

And after giving it considerable thought, I came to these conclusions:

1) I am helping my clients succeed at making major life changes and shifts and have been a good leader as well as coach by helping them come to their own critical realizations and conclusions that allow them to take action and reach their highest potential; and

2) I see people own who they are and what they want, move forward, claim and create the life and lifestyle they want, and ultimately shift to a whole new level of thinking, action, achievement, and fulfillment.

Being a leader then doesn’t necessarily mean you have to be the CEO of a large company or perhaps the dean of a well-known university.

It can also mean that what you bring to people in any position, whether personal or professional, is provided not only through your professional training but also through your effective leadership qualities and your own life experience.

So, if you want to consider yourself a leader either personally or professionally but aren’t sure how to make the determination that you are one, ask yourself the two questions I mentioned above. It may just be that you, too, will discover the presence of your own significant leadership qualities and life experience that prove to you that you are in fact the leader you thought you were.

. . . And, of course, be sure then to let your leadership qualities be known and make your mark. This will in turn allow others to make theirs!

“Leadership is lifting a person’s vision to high sights, the raising of a person’s performance to a higher standard, the building of a personality beyond its normal limitations.” ~ Peter Drucker

Creative Questions for Creative Solutions

If something’s on your mind and you can’t seem to come up with a solution that seems to fit, ask yourself some “creative” questions about the problem. For example, “What’s the next best step I can take to get (state your problem) resolved?” Then be patient and listen for a creative response. It’s sure to come to you. Your intuition just awaits your questions.

The Gift of Life

If we’re given the gift of life, surely we must live it to the fullest, show sincere gratitude for it, and contribute to the greater good of all. But we’re also given this gift to understand, appreciate, and enjoy every aspect of life, including complete abundance in love and relationships, family and friends, success and contribution, and the sheer joy of living out our life’s purpose.
