How to Make Decisions: 5 easy steps

Every day we are responsible for making many decisions. Some decisions are more important than others--meaning some affect who we are, the people in our lives and can be life-threatening or life-enhancing. 

No matter what--ALL of our decisions though affect how we feel!

What if you could make decisions that were best for you, on your purpose and that would lead you to the life you always dreamed of?

5 Easy Steps to Make Decisions
1. Ask your question out loud. It's important to speak your words--even if it's inside your head. Write them down if you need to clarify them. 
2. Clarify your options. Use a PRO and CON list if needed. Say your options out loud. Notice how your body feels with each answer? Does it feel light or heavy? Do you feel good? Sometimes when fear pops up, we think that's a no. That isn't the case.

3. Will this choice lead you where you want to go and how you want to feel? Are there any consequences?
4. Make your choice and do it.
5. Look at the results. Evaluate. Would I make this decision again?

It's not always easy to make decisions. I have loved using the Desire Mapping Process created by Danielle LaPorte so much so that I became a facilitator. 

Why? In the past, I used this decision-making process and it worked. What was missing that I never thought about how I wanted to feel once I reached my goal. Listen to me talk about DM.

Now that I know how I want to feel once I reach my goal, decision making is that much easier.

I am offering a Virtual Workshop to go through the Desire Mapping Process with me live. For more information you can click here. If you have questions, please schedule a Complimentary Call here.
I'd love to hear about your decision-making process.

One-pointed focus: Meditation

quiet space

"Yoga is the practice of quieting the mind." Patanjali

We are so busy that many of us cannot fathom stopping to "just do nothing." Yet, what we need most is peace and quiet to nourish our deepest selves. 

When did we move so far away from being into doing? I don't know. I spent a lot of time with my brothers and cousins outside, in nature, pretending, looking at stars and fireflies. Now there is fear attached to not being busy. Are we afraid of our potential?

“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us.” ~Marianne Williamson

I invite you to join me in 5 minutes of quieting your mind by focusing on your breath. If you like this, you might want more with my 28-day online meditation course and challenge to build a home practice, "Spark your Creative Genius."

Enjoy! I'd love to hear about your experience; any questions you have about meditation or more that you'd like to see.
