So you want to have a tv show. You want to change the world in massive ways. Millions around the world are feeling the calling, but it is the ones who are stepping it up who are fulfilling them. It is one thing to be clear on what it is that you want to do in the world, but are you focused on who you need to become in order for that to happen? Without a clear focus on a vision of YOU, you can get caught up in being focused on what you don't want to be, because it could seem there is more of that going on in the world. I want to help you get clearer on who you are being called to become in order to bring that vision to fruition. Consider this example: Someone wants to be on the OWN network. They want a beautiful home in the country. They want to raise children and write books. They want to empower people to live healthier lives. ( Yes I hear these dreams often so don't be surprised if it sounds like you ). None of this states who the person is in all of this, the vision for who they are. There are people living that kind of life who lack integrity, and are in it for the fame only. Is that the kind of person you want to be? Nothing wrong with fame, but is that the thing you really want, or is it the effect you can have on the world with that fame? Take the time to reflect on who you need to become and you will find yourself having much more control of your life. Here are 5 steps that I can suggest so that you are able to get clear on the vision for you. 1) What qualities do you need to embody to attract that into your life? Consider this quote from Wayne Dyer: “You do not attract into your life what you want. You attract what you are.” - Wayne Dyer Some of the qualities to embody will be ones that are obvious to you. Others less so, and you will find through trial and error on the path of life. In order to attract abundance though, you need to know that you are abundant. The person who constantly notices lack and scarcity will only create more of that. You may know that you suffer from low self-confidence and know that confidence is something you want to embody. Here are some examples that people are usually quite aware they want to embody: Confidence. Authenticity. Patience. Persistence. Risk taking. Abundance mindset. Responsible. Inspiring After you list them off you may think to yourself "I can never be this" or "I am not good enough". The remaining steps will help you so that you can begin to step into the more empowered version of yourself. 2) What are you afraid that you might become with all that power? Until we acknowledge the fears about what we want to avoid becoming, those fears can take a hold of us and prevent us from taking the next step. You can usually get clear on that when you think of someone that you don't like who is in a position of authority. An example that I hear from many is that they do not want to be egotistical, meaning they value humbleness. Here are some other examples: 1) Obsessed with money. 2) Controlling 3) Greedy 4) Mean 5) Dishonest. Be aware of the fact that if you feel a charge about these traits in others, that they exist somewhere within you, or you still judge that in others. I would recommend releasing any judgement you feel towards those traits in the other so that you can release them in yourself as it only gets in the way of the vision for you. Ho opono pono is the best technique that I have found to help with this step. If you are known as a loving and kind person, the last thing you want somebody seeing is the hate that you may have within you. Release the judgement of it within yourself and embrace the wholeness of who you are. 3) So who do you want to be instead? What is the flipside of each of the above? We can get caught at looking at poor examples of power in the world ( politicians often make the obvious choice for many people ) and unconsciously be telling ourselves that we don't want to become that. Or we can focus on who it is that we will choose to become as we step into our power. So we can use the examples from before, and shift the focus from what we don't want to become, to what we consider to be the opposite of that. 1) Healthy relationship with money 2) Giving freedom to all. 3) Generous 4) Kind 5) Honest Begin today to own these qualities within yourself. Notice when you embody them, acknowledge them in yourself. When others compliment you on this trait or characteristic, thank them, they have gifted you an awareness that you may not have had about yourself before. Many of us grew up not thinking we could acknowledge these in ourselves, but unless we do, we will not be able to share them with the world. Don't go around shouting who you are, show the world by your actions in every moment. 4) Who is someone that you aspire to be like? What are the qualities that they embody that you like and wish to embody more within yourself? Keep pictures of them close by so that you can remind yourself of who you are seeking to become. You admire those qualities in another, because they reside within you. Make a conscious choice to giving your attention to becoming that person more often. Claim "I AM..." When it comes to qualities of spirit, you will find yourself accepting the truth of them a lot easier than things like "I am a millionaire". I am not saying that you should not focus on that if it was what you want, but that it is not a quality of spirit per se. A quality of spirit within all of us is kindness. The truth is that you are kind, it is a quality of spirit that we all possess that we either exhibit often or rarely. For the above examples: 1) I am abundant. 2) I am in control of my life. 3) I am generous. 4) I am kind. 5) I am honest. and others are: "I am willing to change" "I am authentic" "I am inspiring" "I am self-responsible" 5) Release the resistance to the new you. As you begin to tell yourself these statements, some will feel more real than others. Some will need some time to integrate properly. It is important to release the attachments to the old self in order to step in to the new. You may face resistance to change, a lack of desire to become some of those qualities for yourself, but with the end vision in mind at all times, it becomes much easier. Energy techniques can be very helpful in releasing your bonds ( read below about an upcoming event that I am co-facilitating with my beloved, aka "monkey"). In time you will find yourself living from this space. The adventure of the Grail Knight is one of facing our inner demons and embracing our inner light. We need a clear vision of who we are being called to become, and clarity will come through every experience in which your shadow self raises it's head and we shine the light on it. 6) Take a little action every day that will help you to build that quality more within yourself. If you want to exercise your kindness muscles, commit to one random act of kindness each day. Help someone across the road, call a friend to say hello, buy a homeless person a warm hot coffee in the fall weather. That will help you believe that you are kind. If you are seeking to be more playful and easygoing, what is one thing that you can do today? If you are wishing to be a responsible person, what is one responsible action step that you can take in your life today? Maybe it is taking responsibility for your health with good food purchases, taking responsibility for your finances by making payment arrangements if you have debts. For each quality you are seeking to embrace within yourself, what is one action you can take today that would tell you that you are that person? And keep building on it, day by day.
