Last week was a busy week here at Golden Spark Tarot.
I was having fun pulling Natal Charts and designing new fulfilling chapters with many clients at events in Cincinnati and Columbus.
The excitement of pulling a Natal Chart for a client is always a captivating experience for both of us.
We get to explore, where they are meant to shine, how they make the most of their talents and what area of life is beckoning for more nurturance.
As we walk through discovering where there are opportunities for growth and change, oftentimes I hear the phrase ‘I’ve tried that already and it didn’t work.’
I acknowledge the statement and gauge their openness to discussing the topic further.
When openness exists, we dive further in to better understanding the ‘thought obstacle’ standing in their way.
The fact is there is no other obstacle than a thought obstacle.
I’ve read Natal charts for many people in similar circumstances who have gotten very different results.
The challenge is, how do we overcome a ‘thought obstacle?’
A tool I have found especially powerful, is practicing new thoughts around the challenging subject area.
I use this tool because it is difficult to go from thoughts such as “I have a job I do not enjoy” to “I am living a truly abundant life, contributing something I love to the world and getting paid handsomely to do it.”
There is simply too much of a gap between where you are and where you want to go.
This is why positive affirmations can get tricky; they’re just TOO big of a change for our minds to open up to.
Alas, my challenge for you today is to:
- Identify the long term result you want
- State what the actual thought is that you have around this area
- Create 6 laddered up thoughts between where you are today and where you want to be
- Commit to practicing the new up-leveled thought
Here is an example:
- I have a job I do not enjoy
- I have a job I find some joy in and have transferable skills to use in my own business
- I have the ability to create an offer or product that people would love to purchase
- I have a website that provides multiple products and offers, people have purchased
- I am able to cover half of my living expenses doing work that I genuinely enjoy
- I have a regular client list of people who have purchased from me, whom I can count on to purchase additional products/services
- I have enough profit from my business that I am able to quit my full time job
- I have a business doing what I love and serving people I am excited about.
- I am living a truly abundant life, contributing something I love to the world and getting paid handsomely to do it.
Now it’s your turn to ladder up! Create that new thought and state it at the beginning of each day. This will enable you to assert your new way of being in this world.
With the commitment to new thoughts, we can begin to create our new reality and realize our ultimate goals.
