That thing you want…

Look at what you’ve done this week, how you’ve spent your time.

Was any of it focused on that thing you want? Not just thinking about it, or wanting it. But actual action, true movement toward it.

If yes, excellent. You must really want that thing.

If no, hmmm. You either don’t really want that thing. Or you don’t want to do what needs to be done to take steps toward that thing.

No judgement.

Often between where you are and what you want is courage, vulnerability, resilience, and grit. Those are difficult to say yes to. But if you say no or maybe to them, you go nowhere. Which, sorry not sorry, means you don't actually want that thing. Because to want it is to do what it takes. To want it without doing what it takes? That's just painful, hopeless longing.

You have choice.

Actively want it. Or release it.

Want to use your intuition more at work? Here's something to try.

With each task, before or after each meeting, with each potential project or idea, notice what your body is doing.

Does it feel tight, tense? Does it feel relaxed, calm? Does it feel excited, expansive?

Take the moment to notice.

Notice what your body is communicating to you. That's data, you are being informed.

Tight or tense? Ask yourself why. And why again. And what you can do for yourself.

Relaxed or calm? Take that moment to be so present.

Excited or expansive? Ask yourself what is lighting up for you and keep pointing yourself in that direction.

Your body is a receiver and communicator. It stores your emotions (it doesn't create them, your mind does). And you can use those emotions as information (not decision makers).

In a world that is so focused on external leadership, I hold focus on inner leadership. You're more equipped to guide your life than you realize.

Want to support your practical life with intuition for deeper fulfillment and greater success?

First thing to understand: while you will want to zoom out and tune in, it's not as complex as you might think.

Second thing to understand: it's not a practice that is separate from your day-to-day. In fact, it's given life through your day-to-day.

I will stand firmly and confidently on my soapbox when I say that intuition thrives on action. Your intuitive guidance is in a cyclical relationship with your real-life action.

Want something? Great, let's start there…

1️⃣ Set a goal for that something. Why? It focuses your energy rather than allowing it to scatter.

2️⃣ Do something. Take an action step toward that goal. It can be small. In fact, it's better if it's small. Importantly, you're going to take an actual action step. Not just think about something, organize your thoughts about it. But instead, a real action step.

3️⃣ As you take the step and after, notice. How did your external world react to it? What did your internal world notice about it? This will help you to determine your next step.

This is a process of focusing your energy, taking action, and noticing. Repeat.

It requires that you do something different - emphasis on do something.

Your intuition is your guide and gauge in this process. Your actions are what give it the data it needs to communicate your path to you.
