#1 MANIFESTATION Mistake you’re *definitely* Making

“Ok so… I’m doing ALL the things, right? My visualizations are basically a Pinterest board, my mirror is covered in goals written on sticky notes, I listen to at least 3 podcasts a week… but I’m still NOT seeing results in my life/biz?!

WHAT THE F AM I DOING WRONG D + N?!

HALP!!!!

The REALITY Behind Why You’re Barely Getting Any Results
Girl… you can be pouring EVERYTHING into shiny future goals of bff coaching clients, consistent 10K months, snagging that fancy promotion/raise (*INSERT DREAM HERE*) but we’re about to drop a truth bomb that you mightttt be tempted to ignore… (PSA - don’t).

GET READY: If you can’t fully be thankful for the good that’s going on in your life NOW (small scale) - how do you think you’ll be able to HANDLE appreciating the greatness that comes with big goals in the FUTURE (large scale)?!

Now, this next sentence...

So, it’s Friday morning, you plop that toosh down at your at-home desk, couch, counter or wherever else you’ll be house-hustling until that precious 5 PM hits (or 4:30… or 4:13 pm, depending on your mood)… you’ve got a longggg list of to-do’s to wrap up before the weekend and you’re rearin’ to go…

…next thing ya know - you check your I-Phone, it’s 3:48 pm + you’ve BARELY gotten anything crossed off your list… ruh roh.

…sure, it *feels* like you’ve been busy ALL DAY but haven’t actually gotten anything…DONE (?)

Gal. Been there. Done (or not done) that.

Scheduling INTENTIONAL / FOCUSED time helps you be A LOT more productive without burning out!

Plan it all: work time, Netflix-binging time, cleaning the house...

Who is the person you break the most promises to?

That’s right - yourself.

We’re try our hardest to keep our promises to other people (and literally can drive ourselves CRAZY in the process) -

but when it comes to the promises we make to ourselves…. we break it.

+ I’m going to get up and workout in the morning.

+ I will drink 100oz of water today

+ I will send in my application to grad school this month

….. the list goes on and on.

Why do we do it? Well, we don’t value our own time. And we think we will always have more of it.

But if we are learning anything right now - it is that the future is unpredictable. In order to value your time and keep promises to yourself, you have to start with your DAILY HABITS.

One of our best tips? Schedule out your day and stick to it!! You can do this on your phone in your calendar app, or if you love pen and paper like we do, write it down!! There is power in putting your intentions in writing. It makes it harder...

We heard this tip a few years ago + it's been an absolute GAME CHANGER for us in terms of: work-flow, the ability to focus on important tasks + get more done in way less time (at both our full-time n' side hustle jobs).

+ here's the kicker...

IT'S SO FRICKIN'. SIMPLE.
As in, it'll literally take you TWO seconds to do S-I-M-P-L-E.
All you gotta do is set up intentional 'focus' time (ideally in the beginning of your day, before the e-mails/work flow gets too crazy) + while you're hustling on - 𝐏𝐔𝐓 𝐘𝐎𝐔𝐑 𝐏𝐇𝐎𝐍𝐄 𝐎𝐍 𝐀𝐈𝐑𝐏𝐋𝐀𝐍𝐄 𝐌𝐎𝐃𝐄.

Sis, are you a newbie to working from home? (Welcome to Zoom life!)

Procrastinating wayyy more than usual? #NoShameInTheLionKingGame

Feeling like you just can’t focus no matter how hard you do try? *YUP…*

Creating a workspace that’s DIVIDED from the rest of your house is KEY to actually getting sh*t done at home…

Why’s that?

…because in order to successfully FOCUSING on the professional work you’ve got to do for your job/biz, you’ve gotta SEPARATE it from the personal (+ inevitable) distractions that are buzzing all around ya… #laundry.

CHOOSING Thoughts that SERVE + EMPOWER You...

PSA: You are WIRED to think negative thoughts. All. Day. Long.

Literally, your brain’s own limbic system (think: the oldest/strongest/most cave-man part of your noggin’) is literally DESIGNED to hit the panic button at the slightest sign of danger.

Now, back in the day of loin cloths and sabertooth tigers (Joe Exotic would be thrilled…) - this wiring was superrrr useful in keeping us, well… ALIVE.

BUT, lucky for a lot of us - that daily need for survival isn’t the same anymore…

Our beautiful BRAIN however, IS.

Now, fast-forward to a world-wide pandemic, economic recession + a world where Charmin Ultra has basically replaced the dollar… + that brain of yours is having a fieldddd day!

All of those negative thoughts you’ve been having?

All of the worst-case-scenarios that keep running in the background?

The insane amounts of...

Imagine this: 'future you' came to visit from the year 2023 (*cue Jonas Brothers 'Year 3000' song...*) + she's wearing the cutest black booties EVER...

She assures you that all things COVID-19 are old news.

We're ALL healthy or healing - and you and your business are absolutely T-H-R-I-V-I-N-G (instead of just surviving, like so many others...) - DAMN.

It's a pretty mind-blowing thought, isn't it?

The truth is this: a LOT of what's happening in the world right now feels super out of our control, yeah?

So, HOW can you take the POWER back in your life/business?

Ask yourself this question:

If THIS obstacle what the BEST thing to ever happen to you or your business - HOW would the next 2, 6, 12 months look???
PROFESSIONALLY:
How could you prioritize the activities that actually help make more sales (think: new discounts, connecting in the DM's etc.)?...

REAL TALK: who else has spent an *embarrassing* amount of time stalking their ex’s new girl on Facebook?

Yeah SAMEEEE ‍

…stalking old frenemies/hookup’s on Snapchat…
…eye-rolling your aunt’s racist FB posts…
…scrolling through insta-influencers photo-shopped bikini pics…
…following the most cringe-worthy celeb rants on Twitter...

...most of us have accidentally curated our feeds to make us FEEL totally MISERABLE a LOT of the time! (#OhSh*t...)

So, gal - we want to ask you this: what’s the ‘PRICE OF ENTRY’ that you’re charging to get access to yo' PRECIOUS feed/mind?

Why’s it important to curate?

WHAT. A. SH*T. STORM. #AmIRight?!

This week has honestly felt like a scene straight out of 'Contagion' or 'I Am Legend'... + there's nothing like a nation-wide plea for toilet paper to remind us of the importance of the BASICS (literally).

However, as crazy/uncertain as these times may be... it almost feels like the fear and overwhelm that we're all dealing with is just as infectious as COVID-19 itself... + our addiction to the feed isn't helping anyone feel ANY better.

We WANT to stay informed. As humans, we CRAVE being in the know and we have a VERY hard time dealing with the unknown. We're wired for answers - and when it seems as though we're not getting any, our natural instinct is to... F*CKING. PANIC.
