Reclaim Your Purpose & Power
Remember the sparkle in your eyes?
You can get it back.
Open to the Preface first. It asks who is steering your ship.
The problem
You reached the goal. The goalpost moved.
For many, success is an ambiguous goal with a constantly changing goalpost. You can hit every mark that looks good from the outside and still feel the routine closing in, the spark gone quiet, and the sense of possibility you had as a child somewhere far behind you.
Everyone has been there. We falter on goals and desires when we lose touch with our feelings and the essence of life, and we drift from our purpose, motivation, strength, and happiness.
Jane's finding: true success and fulfillment stem from an inner drive, and your ability to reach a goal is tied to your current emotional state.
Who is steering this ship?
We are the sole pilots of our trip and supervise which direction our ship sails. Throughout this book, you will learn to let go of your doubts, diminish the stress in your life, and find your purpose.
From the Preface
The method
Seven working parts, each one taught in the book.
Through self-drive, motivation, and discipline, the book shows readers how to harness what is truly inside them and become the architects of their success. Here, success is a state of mind and a daily decision, not a destination or a monetary measure.
Everything you focus on will grow. You must voluntarily concentrate your mind on what you want.
Chapter 4
Write it down. Then it is real.
Subconscious Mind Programming
Programming the subconscious through repeated affirmations and visualization.
Three-Step Negativity Elimination Method
Awareness, state change, positive staying. A physical shift, like moving a bracelet from one wrist to the other, breaks the negative pattern on the spot.
S.M.A.R.T. Goal Setting
Goals written down, so they become real instead of fantasy.
Active vs Reactive Attitude
One decision creates a chain of decisions. This is where you learn to see the chain that led you to today.
The Success Traits
Self-motivation, commitment, adaptation and flexibility, emotional self-control, and organization.
Daily habits
Early rising, a gratitude practice, and visualization, cultivated day by day.
Obstacle analysis and action planning
Look squarely at what stands in the way, then plan the action. Compare yourself only with who you were yesterday.
This is for you if…
You built the life. You want the spark back.
- You have achieved external success and still feel unfulfilled or empty.
- Your days have settled into the same repetitive routine.
- You are standing at a career plateau, or in the middle of midlife questions.
- The years since the pandemic have you reassessing what matters.
- You have lost touch with your childhood passions and your sense of possibility.
Buy on Amazon…"The worst that can happen is that you stay as you are" and "You don't already have it," so let's work to transform everything into an immense YES.
Chapter 8
One decision starts the chain. Let this be the first one.
