ON Purpose

BEcoming Me

I learned the lessons of purpose as I was laid off three times after rising to the top of my career in social work.  I kept fighting the flow and became frustrated and agitated, feeling betrayed and depressed, until I realized that although I enjoy helping people it didn’t mean I could only help people as a Social Worker.  So I answered the call to redesign my life as an entrepreneur and learned about small business ownership. As a result, I have helped many women start their own businesses and I provide coaching and spiritual support to many female executives.  My income is much more than it would have been as a Social Worker and I don’t carry the stress that comes with that career. Best of all I don’t have to worry about being laid off or fired or starting all over again.  I love my life and everyday I am teaching others to do the same.

So tell me what did it take for you to find your purpose and be totally free with being on purpose?

Forgive to succeed

Today on my radio program I publicly asked for forgiveness of my mother of whom I have not spoken to for over three years. The why is not as important as the release that it had on my soul and hers.  For the past several weeks, I had guest such as Elon Bomani, Debrena Jackson Gandy and Stacy Banks-Houston as guest experts and they all said that forgiveness is the path we all must take in order to un-block our blessings and all that life has for us.  I asked my guest Sherry Fields what she thought about forgiveness and she said, “it is hard but it is necessary”! 

I want to know from you- what are your feelings about forgiveness and who have you forgiven lately?  Look forward to a talk show all about forgiveness coming soon.  Let’s get free so we can have the courage to be healthy, wealthy and satisfied!  If you did not listen to the July 31, 2008 posting of the show please do. 

Remember, forgiveness is an attitude, emotion and most of all it is ACTION!  Talk to me let’s be free to forgive so we can succeed in life and in business.

Three things forgiveness does:

1. Heals the mind, emotions and body.

2. Increases and enlarges your ability to give and receive.

3. Propels you toward greater destiny.

You can have a life that you love!

I have been hosting a radio show now for three-weeks and the topic is, “You can have a life that you love.”  I thought it was an important topic because the people I coach and provide support to have something in common, they don’t believe that they can have “their cake and eat it too!”  I guess it stems from so many notions that we are mentally programmed to believe.  For example, “when I take one step forward I fall three spaces backward”. “I better enjoy this because I know this won’t last forever.”  How about this one, “nothing like this ever happens to me.”  I think it is so amazing that we are willing to accept mediocre living and complacency vs dreaming big and excepting nothing but the big and the best.  Some would say, “you are setting yourself up for failure”, but I say, “you are setting yourself up for great success.”   You just have to mind what you are focusing on. After all, you can have a life that you love by believing in what’s possible and the power of you!”

Do I have anyone who wants to live a life that they can love with me?

Blissful Living

Until now, I NEVER understood what it meant to live blissfully.  However, due to a few strategic decisions I have made in the past six months, the result is- I have been ushered into the land of “Blissful Living.”  To me it means being carefree and filled with anticipation of nothing but good, wholeness, love and wealth .  It means keeping my arms wide open to receive as well as give all that I can possibly give knowing that what I give is coming back soon and very soon.  I have new feelings and a new way of living.  In fact, I wake up with joy and lay down with joy every single day.  My dreams are now my life.   I am glowing, I am laughing louder and deeper, I am not afraid to ask, make  bold request and verbally with love let others know that I care.  I am in a place where there is nothing missing or broken. I am bliss-full  and everything in my space must be and will be filled with bliss.  Have you or are you in the land of Blissful Living?  How do you know?  How will you pass it on?
