Turns Out I’ve Been Following Inspiration All Along!

March 2, 2012 By Debbie Leave a Comment

Highway to Heaven

I had an epiphany when I was journaling this morning.

I have been following inspiration all along!

Not just this past year, or since 2008 when I began listening more closely to my heart.

No. I have actually been following inspiration for my entire life.

I realized that following inspiration doesn’t mean you’re always on cloud nine, or that everything is going the way you want. Life has its ups and downs, even when you’re following your heart. That’s what makes things interesting. As they say, without the bad we wouldn’t appreciate the good. It’s ALL part of our journey.

I’m clear now that I was measuring by the outcomes and experiences in my life, and my judgment of them.

If things turned out well, or I felt at peace, then I must have been following inspiration.

Conversely, when things turned out badly (or at least looked or felt that way to me in the moment) my judgment was that I had gotten caught up—that I was not following my heart but instead was allowing myself to be influenced by others, or even my own head.

As I share in my book, Breaking the Spell: The Truth about Money, Success, and the Pursuit of Happiness, I spent seven years and over $200,000 chasing success. I had labeled this a mistake, a misstep, actions driven by my head and influences around me, and not my heart.

This morning I discovered an entirely new vantage point.

I was indeed following inspiration through it all. EVERY SINGLE STEP.

I had to go down that path… I had to lose that money… I had to lose myself (or at least feel as though I had)…

I had to experience it all in order to fulfill my purpose.

It was training, if you will.

Preparation for the mission I’m on now. My book, my publishing company, the new direction of my business, my message, my platform, my LIFE!

Every person I’ve met, every experience I’ve had was a necessary part of bringing me to where I am today and the message I know I’m here to share. My heart and soul knew that all along.

Without the pain and loss and frustration and anger, there would be no message… no book. And I know in my heart my book is a big part of what I’m here to share. There are people around the world who need to hear its message. Who will be awakened by it. Who will be consoled by it. Who will grow because of it. Of that I have no doubt!

All along I have been judging by the outcomes and this morning I realized all of it really is perfect.

This is not just acceptance. It truly is an epiphany. I have grasped a new level of understanding of the concept that everything that happens is perfect. I think before I wanted to believe that, and on some level I did, but now I get it in the core of my being… in my soul!

I am even clear that this epiphany couldn’t be revealed to me until after I finished writing my book. Timing is everything!

Wow, what a way to start the day… and the rest of my life.

I look forward with great anticipation to where the journey is taking me, and the people I will be meeting and touching along the way.

Relaxing into Life

January 18, 2012 By Debbie 1 Comment

Person on beach

I was on the phone with three former mastermind buddies yesterday and as we were sharing updates about our lives and businesses, I wrote down the following phrase:

“Relaxing into Life”

It seemed that’s what we are all currently doing.

We met in 2009 and were all focused on building our businesses, getting clients, creating products and services, and making money. We met biweekly for two years by phone to help each other stay on track and share ideas toward those goals.

All three of us built our businesses and we also built lasting friendships with each other.

By 2011 my focus was shifting more toward following inspiration and the business masterminding no longer felt like a good fit. We agreed to go our separate ways but to reconnect every few months for a “reunion.”

Yesterday’s call was one such reunion.

I was intrigued by how we’ve all individually stepped into a place of more balance and allowing.

We still run our businesses but we are also focusing more on fun and other things. It’s a healthier balance. And we all seemed quite happy with where we are in our lives and businesses as a result.

I encourage you to relax into life.

Be open to what it brings and the pace at which it brings it. I have found magic in that path, in both my personal life and my business. It led to me writing my book, Breaking the Spell which I hope will touch many, many lives.

It also led to some changes in my business that I will be revealing very soon. Changes that have been totally inspired (vs. planned) and that I feel very good about. And I know the path will continue to unfold as I allow it to, and that’s exciting.

P.S. This will likely be my last Following Inspiration blog post.

I may post occasionally in the future, but I am creating a new blog home where I will be consolidating my business and personal blogging. I will be announcing details shortly so stay tuned if you’d like to continue following the conversation and where it’s headed!

Should New Year’s be just another day?

January 2, 2012 By Debbie 12 Comments

Happy New Year
2011 was a year of transition for me.

I spent six months researching and writing my book, BreakingThe Spell, and going through some serious reflection and personal growth. While it was challenging at times, it was also extremely transformative. I enjoyed the process and learned a valuable lesson: how to accept what is and be happy in the moment instead of always striving for more.

Yet at the same time I found myself looking toward 2012 as a “fresh start.”

I heard myself saying “2012 is going to be a great year especially after all I’ve been through this year.” I looked toward January 1, 2012 with great anticipation. The start of a new journey. The start of the second half of my life. Talk about a build up!

Well, New Year’s Day came and instead of it being an amazing, wonderful, joy-filled day, it was a day like any other.

In fact, it was more of a roller-coaster day than most. As much as I had been looking forward to the end of 2011 and the start of 2012, the end of the year and start of the New Year turned out to be full of not-so-great surprises. Nothing terribly horrible, but certainly not the rosy new start I was anticipating.

In fact, my daughter came home after her New Year’s Eve celebration and some unfortunate occurrences, bemoaning the start of her New Year and feeling as though the entire year was going to “suck” as a result. I found myself telling her, “It’s just one night, it doesn’t have to set the tone for an entire year.”

Still I understood where she was coming from and I found myself on New Year’s night, in a funk and trying to make sense of it all.

I even found myself considering postponing the start of my New Year… I have a trip planned later this week, to move my daughter back to Ohio for grad school, and I found myself thinking, “I’ll just start my New Year when I get back from Ohio.”  How crazy is that?  Life is not about waiting to start anything, it’s about living each day to the fullest.

As I sat there reflecting on the day, I began to question the way we view New Year’s.

Why do we need a fresh start every year? If we’re happy and moving in the direction we want to be moving (and I most certainly was) why do we feel the need to start over on January 1st? Why not just keep doing what we’re doing and moving in the direction we’re moving?

By building up the day so much in our heads, it’s almost sure to disappoint.

In my experience, perfect days are always the ones we don’t plan—they’re the days that just unfold as we’re following inspiration.

If we’re not happy with our lives or the direction we’re moving, we can make a change at any time. We don’t need to wait for a new year to do it. I didn’t wait for a new year to change my life direction in 2011. If I had, I would have spent 6 months being miserable and frustrated.

I think from now on I’m going to choose to look at New Year’s as just another day.

I will make changes and begin fresh starts whenever I feel inspired to, but no longer will I build up ONE day in my mind so much, or expect a magical change to occur just because I’ve turned over the calendar.

I do think it’s good to step back and reflect on our lives every so often, and maybe that is the role New Year’s should play. But then again, we can do that at any time, can’t we?

I have a friend who doesn’t really celebrate New Year’s.

Instead she celebrates her New Year in the Spring, when nature is blossoming. I like that idea.

For now, I’m going keep living each day to the fullest. I’m going to get up and do what I am inspired to do. And, I’m not going to put off until tomorrow what I can do today.

How about you?

The Spell is Broken

December 13, 2011 By Debbie 12 Comments

Breaking The Spell

I struggled with whether or not to write this post.

In my heart, I knew I should. I have an important message to share. In my head, I had concerns. What would people think, particularly my clients or prospective clients?

In the end, my heart won. I’m in a place in my life where I’m experiencing great change, change I know will make my next 50 years much more peaceful and fulfilling than the last 50. Not that I regret a day of the last 50 years, but I’ve grown so much this year that I can’t imagine living another day in my old mindset. I feel compelled to share what I’ve learned with others so they too can benefit (that’s the main reason I’m writing my book, too).

So here goes…

As you may know, for the past six months I’ve been researching and writing my latest book, Breaking The Spell. What you may not know is that I’ve basically been on sabbatical from my business during that time. I made a choice to stop marketing my services and pursuing clients so I could focus on my book. It felt right, albeit a little bit scary. I’ve always made a good living. In fact, for as long as I can remember I’ve earned more than my husband. And, as I’ve learned in the process of writing my book, my self-worth has been tightly connected to my level of success and the amount of money I make (money for me has been a form of measurement).

I’m guessing you can imagine what happens when you stop marketing, and more importantly, when you make a decision you don’t want any new clients. Not surprisingly, you stop getting clients and the money flow stops.

As a result, my business income has all but dried up.

One of my biggest fears has manifested. And you know what? It’s okay. The world didn’t end. I’m not homeless, and am not anywhere near becoming homeless. I don’t feel like a fraud. I don’t feel unworthy. All of the fears that I had previously connected with not making a six-figure income did NOT materialize.

In fact, something else amazing has happened instead.

I feel FREE! I feel HAPPY. Happier than I’ve been in a long time. Not because I’m not making money. In fact, it has absolutely nothing to do with money. I feel happier because I’m doing work I feel inspired to do and I’m not so focused on the money side of the equation. I’m just doing the work, and thoroughly enjoying it. And, from the feedback I’m receiving, I’m making an impact on others, which is something that’s very important to me.

It’s not that I’m not working.

I’m working every day, doing research and writing. And, it’s very challenging work. The difference between now, and how I’ve worked in the past, is my motivation is coming from a different place.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m not ready to quit my business or give up trying to make money or be successful.

But at the same time, I’m no longer driven by the pursuit of money and success. Instead, I’m driven by my purpose and what makes me happy. It’s a very different place for me. I admit, there have been plenty of times over the last six months that I’ve found myself worrying about the future and I’ve had to stop myself from going back into “create a business and make money mode.” It was tempting as I saw the income start disappearing. And, I know how to do that. It’s been my “go to” mentality for years.

However, I can honestly say that’s just not my priority right now. And I feel totally at peace when I say that, and do it. That is a big switch for me!

For the first time in probably close to 30 years, I feel like I have truly broken the spell that money and success had cast on me.

I knew when I set out to write my book, Breaking The Spell, I would likely have to fully experience the process in order to finish writing the book. I can now say that I have fully experienced it. I have broken free. And, not surprisingly, just in time to finish writing the book. All the more reason to trust the Universe. The timing is always perfect!

In the last few months, plenty of ideas for where to take my business in the future have surfaced. I am just beginning to plan for, and implement some of those ideas now.

I’m also very grateful for the clients that did choose to work with me this year and for the big chunk of last year’s income that I put into my savings account. Both enabled me to continue supporting my family while taking this sabbatical. I’m also very grateful for my supportive husband who has encouraged me to “do what I need to do” and not worry about the money. He’s kept me going when I’ve felt like it might just be easier to go back to business. Of course, he knew better!

This experience has also caused me to consider more carefully what I’m spending money on. I’ve re-evaluated our family’s spending and have cut unnecessary expenses that quite frankly, I probably would have continued to mindlessly incur had I not gone through this experience. And we’re not even noticing the difference! I know going forward I will be much more mindful of my spending, regardless of how much money I’m making.

I have a very strong sense that next year is going to be amazing.

I know I’ll start earning money again, perhaps even a lot of it. But it’s no longer how I plan to keep score. I have changed and I know I will never run my business, or my life, the same way again.

For that transformation I will be eternally grateful. Making the decision to begin following inspiration a year ago is the best decision I could have made. In many ways it saved me. It’s been scary and challenging. But I have grown as a person. And I don’t plan to ever go back to my old way of being.

It’s far too peaceful and exciting here. Now my mission is to invite others to join me!

If you’d like to learn more about my book, Breaking The Spell, and read the first two chapters along with sneak peek snippets of every chapter I’ve completed, please consider joining my BTS Tribe. It’s free and you’ll get an insider’s peek at the book, plus you’ll be among the first to know when it becomes available in 2012. You can learn more and join at www.BreakingTheSpellBook.com

The Illusion of Time

November 15, 2011 By Debbie Leave a Comment

Sedona Arizona

I just returned from a weekend trip to Sedona, Arizona.

I went to celebrate my 50th birthday. It was a trip that was prompted by an inspired idea over a year ago. In the fall of 2010 my husband and I were on our way to Arizona for a conference when I realized my 50th birthday would fall on 11-11-11. Immediately I got the sense that I was supposed to spend that birthday in Sedona. I didn’t know why. We’d been there once before, 20 years ago, and it was a magical trip. It’s a very spiritual place and I certainly felt the spiritual significance of 11-11-11. Whatever the reasons, I just knew if I chose to honor the inspired idea, we would be spending my 50th birthday in Sedona.

Fast forward one year. So much has changed in my life.

I’m on a bit of a personal vision quest. I’m midway through writing a book that has caused me to explore myself, my life, and our world deeply. It is changing me inside. I have a very clear sense the second half of my life will be lived from a very different place than the first half.

I find it so interesting that a year prior on some level I knew (or perhaps it was simply that my higher power knew) where I needed to be on my 50th birthday. It was a truly transformational weekend. So many profound realizations. Validation of where I’m heading. Confirmation that I’m on the only path I can be on, even if it’s a bit scary not knowing exactly where it’s heading.

So often in life we are “on the clock.”

Things have to happen in certain timing or we get impatient. We’re always in a hurry to move along and make things fit our timetable.

This past weekend illustrated how irrelevant time can be. A year before I went to Sedona I got the inspiration to go. A full year went by. I wasn’t worrying about it. I wasn’t concerned that I needed to get certain things done in order to go. The time just passed. And, as it turned out, the exact amount of time passed and events occurred to deliver me to the mental, spiritual, emotional, and physical place I needed to be in to fully appreciate the trip.

There’s only one word I can use to describe how this feels: magical.

The next time you’re holding on too tightly to time, or feeling like things aren’t happening fast enough, I encourage you to let that go.

Trust that everything is unfolding in perfect timing. And know it’s just your distrust that is causing you to try to outsmart a force much greater than you.

Validation

November 8, 2011 By Debbie Leave a Comment

Yes Post It Note

I’ve come to realize that sometimes the inspired ideas we follow are there to show us what we don’t want.

I used to believe that every inspired idea was a step in the right direction. Turns out some steps on the inspired path are steps we take to confirm that’s a path we don’t want to follow.

I’ve had several instances of this in my life but just recently had this epiphany.

Years ago after I left my full-time job to start my own business, I was wooed back into a salaried position with the firm. Up until that point I had been doing contract work for the firm and getting my own business up and running on the side. Both were going relatively well, but the offer to resume a salaried position seemed too good to pass up. The work was inviting, the pay was good, and it was a 30 hour a week “full-time” position. I thought it was the perfect solution to my work-life balance situation.

Almost immediately after beginning the new job I became ill.

What was never diagnosed as anything more than a virus lasted for more than three months. I spent several weeks home in bed and then proceeded to go to work feeling quite crummy for months. While I was grateful for the paid sick leave, the employed stint did not last long.

Very soon I realized I did not want to work full-time for someone else, even if it meant only 30 hours a week and paid sick time. That, combined with several other personnel issues at the firm at the time led to me quit and go back to my own business.

In some ways I think my body knew immediately it was not the right choice—it got sick and tried to tell me!

Taking that position was an inspired action, not something I was looking for. It just showed up and appeared to satisfy all of my desires. It ended up validating what I already knew: I didn’t want to work for someone else. I wanted to do my own thing.

A few years later, it happened again.

Once again, after repeatedly being asked to join a firm full-time, that I was contracting with. Once again an offer of flex time and 30-hour work-weeks. I loved the people and the work. Once again it seemed like a great opportunity. I jumped in. Yet, almost immediately I knew it was a mistake. I lasted six months but only because I really tried to make it work. After all, the opportunity had showed up. It had all the markers of the perfect fit. Wasn’t I following the inspired path?

Once I again I had validated that employment was not for me.

I believe this situation arose to finally validate my decision to work for myself. Being in business on your own is not always easy. Often we look back with rose-colored glassed on the jobs we’ve held. The steady paychecks. The bonuses. The annual raises. The camaraderie of fellow employees. The annual holiday party. Just being able to do the work, instead of having to drum it up, administrate it, and the whole ball of wax!

This step on my inspired path was another action to validate my choice to be an entrepreneur.

Recently I have been making some changes in my business and shifting direction a bit. All as a result of following inspiration. In the midst of all this, several opportunities have arisen that are more in line with where I have been instead of where I am going. The most recent one was inspired for sure. I met someone. It seemed like a cosmic connection. An opportunity arose. It felt right. I jumped.

And once again, after all was said and done, I realized the purpose of this latest opportunity, which was not in line with where I am headed, was just another validation of this new path I am on. While following through on the opportunity had several bright moments, in the end it felt like I was taking two steps backwards. It threw me off my path—the one that feels so right, right now. My body responded by giving me a giant headache that lasted several days.

It validated what I am moving away from, and what I am moving toward.

I know that I can’t go back to where I’ve been—it just doesn’t feel right anymore. I need to move forward on my new path, as scary and uncertain as it may be. I believe I needed this latest experience to confirm that for myself.

So the next time you take inspired action and it doesn’t turn out the way you had hoped, ask yourself if perhaps the purpose was to validate a different path. Perhaps it was just a way to confirm your decision to do something else, that you may have been wavering on, or may have been a bit uncomfortable or uncertain about.

Once again I am grateful for the clarity.

And I’m ready to move forward on my new path!

Book Subtitle Poll

October 27, 2011 By Debbie Leave a Comment

Which title represents the book you would be most likely to buy and read?

 

As I write my book I continue to feel a little unsure about the title, well mainly the subtitle. I want to be sure it conveys a strong, compelling reason to pick up the book, buy it and read it. I want to be certain people know what they will get… what the benefit is… what outcome they can expect when they read the book. I want to make sure it grabs the media’s attention so my marketing and publicity efforts are effective.

So, I’d love your help.

Which ONE of the following titles & subtitles below is most compelling to you? Which is the book YOU would be most likely to buy and read? (If you’re not familiar with my book concept, download and read my free manifesto, Spellbound, to find out)

If you have an alternate title suggestion you feel is better than any of these options, feel free to choose “Other” and share it. And, feel free to share any comments in the Comments/Speak Your Mind section.

Thanks!

Law of AttrACTION

October 25, 2011 By Debbie Leave a Comment

Act Now Button

For years people have been talking about the Law of Attraction. It’s was popularized by the movie, The Secret in 2006. It’s been adopted by everyone from life coaches to financial mentors as the way to get what you want.

It’s also been slammed by some who argue you can’t think your way to getting things.

Some say you have to fully feel the emotions of actually having the thing it is you want.

Others say it’s all about your mindset – you have to believe you already have it.

For many of us, this feels fake. It feels like we’re trying to pull one over on ourselves. Let’s face it, if I’m broke, it’s hard to feel rich.

Yes, there are some flaws in the Law of Attraction, or at least the way it’s been marketed.

Some say it’s not even a real law. Frankly, I don’t know if it is or not. Suffice it to say it’s a concept you can choose to put to work in your life or not.

But there is ONE adjustment you can make to the Law of Attraction to give yourself a better chance of receiving what it is you’re wishing for.

It’s just a slight adjustment of the word, “Attraction” and you may have noticed it in the title of this post.

Practice the Law of AttrACTION, instead.

The Law of AttrACTION is all about envisioning what you want and then taking ACTION to achieve it. Many a Law of Attraction guru has come out and clarified that you can’t just sit around and wait for things to happen. You have to take action. Well, this slight adjustment of the Law of Attraction puts the emphasis where it ought to be… on the ACTION part of the equation.

If you look at anyone who has accomplished anything or achieved great success, they have taken massive action.

Yes, it may be inspired. That action may have intersected with luck and opportunity. But the cornerstone of their success and achievement was they went after what they wanted. They did not sit around and wait for it to appear like a wish granted by a genie with a magic lamp.

How might your life change if you started taking action daily toward what you want most? Just something to think about!

Thank You Inner Voice and Starbucks

October 18, 2011 By Debbie Leave a Comment

Starbucks

I woke up in a funk today. I felt out of sorts, distracted, bothered. I think I know why.

I attended my first conference in over a year this past weekend. The last conference I attended I left a day early—couldn’t handle the selling and hard-sell promotion. It had been billed as a total content event; it was not. That was the first time in 7 years I had left a conference early. And, until this past weekend I had not attended another event.

I needed a break.

I needed to find myself, my voice and my path again, after allowing myself to get caught up in everyone else’s. When I got word of the conference I attended this past weekend, that little voice inside of me whispered, “Go, it’s time… you’re ready and there are things you can learn.”

I heeded that little voice of inspiration and went.

I was a little anxious going into it. How would I react if they started pitching and hard-sell promotions. God forbid it turn into a pitch fest, if so I knew I would have to walk out. Self preservation. I’m still healing from my past experiences with pitch fests. And my bank account and credit card balances have finally recovered. I absolutely don’t want to go down that path again.

Yet, I am not done learning.

And, I’m getting ready to publish and market my new book within the next few months and I’m smart enough to know there are things I don’t know and need to learn.

So I went to the conference… spent 2-1/2 days listening to speaker after speaker. Yes, I learned a few things. Mostly it sparked ideas. I met a few interesting people. Reconnected with an old friend who lives across the country. Met someone I admire in person for the first time.

I didn’t make it to the end of the conference.

By day three, I’d had enough. It was starting to feel like a pitch-fest. Too much like the old days for me. I felt my feathers starting to ruffle, and even though it may have just been me (I realize I am super sensitive still), I knew it was time to bow out. I listened to that inner voice, and left. Yes, I missed probably the biggest name speaker of the weekend, but I was okay with it. I had gotten what I came for, and a little more than I bargained for. Time to go.

After a day at home, I found myself feeling agitated.

I wasn’t sure why. I felt distracted and overwhelmed by all the information I had gleaned at the conference, the feelings it had stirred up in me, and I simply couldn’t concentrate. I knew I needed to get clear.

I grabbed my journal and headed to Starbucks.

I usually spend Friday mornings at Starbucks, drinking my favorite tea, and journaling. Today was Tuesday. I didn’t care. Starbucks and my journal were calling me. My head said I had too much to do. A presentation to finish. A book to finish writing that I’m already behind schedule on. And more.

Yet I knew I wouldn’t be able to concentrate on any of it unless I cleared all the clutter out of my brain. So I listened to my heart, and ignored my head and headed to Starbucks with my journal.

Within 5-10 minutes sitting there writing, everything became crystal clear.

Issues I have been challenged with over the past few months of how my business and my book fit together were resolved. A clear path revealed itself. I saw the first few steps. I started to get excited. I now know where I am going! And, I can now appreciate the conference even more, because some of the ideas it sparked are a part of my plan. But even more so, the frustration it stimulated is what led to my clarity! Not what I expected to gain from attending, but oh, so powerful.

Once again I am so grateful I let my heart overrule my head.

It knew what I needed. In just a few minutes the clouds cleared and the path was revealed. Now it’s time to follow.

By the way, this is what I call “check out time” and it’s one of the ways I get clear. I don’t normally make offers on this blog but felt like I wanted to share this with you because it’s such a powerful force in my life. If you want to learn more about getting clear so you can get on with your life and business, I encourage you to check out my Get Clear! Program. It’s how I found (and continually find) and follow my inspired path, and it can help you do the same. Details at www.GetClearProgram.com. There’s also a Get Clear! button on the right hand side of the page.

What You Focus On Expands

October 10, 2011 By Debbie Leave a Comment

Magnifying glass with the word Focus

Call it the Law of Attraction or whatever you want. It’s true that whatever you place your focus on, you naturally attract more of into your life. Or, at least you become aware of more things that are in line with that focus. Truth is, they’re already there, it’s just you often don’t see them because you’re too focused on other things. (Ever bought a new car and suddenly see that make and model everywhere? This is a perfect example of this phenomenon).

I recently realized this actually led to my becoming Spellbound.

I’ve been following inspiration (taking action on what shows up in my life) pretty consistently since 2008. Yet, I’ve often wondered how I got so off-track in 2009.

My focus was on becoming more successful and making more money. So naturally I encountered opportunities to do both at every turn. That’s where my attention was, so that’s what I saw. Believing all of the opportunities were divinely inspired, I chased them all. And, if you’ve read my manifesto, Spellbound, you know what happened… it wasn’t pretty.

I get it now. My focus was in the wrong place.

I suppose the lesson here is to be careful what you focus on.

My focus has definitely changed this year, especially as I am writing Breaking The Spell. I’m also attracting very different people and opportunities into my life. Once again the Law of Attraction is at work. It always is.

From now on, I will maintain my focus on staying grounded and doing what’s important to me. I will take it off the bright shiny objects, the “shoulds” and the goals that I now see were too strongly influenced by other people.

Lesson learned.
