The Steps I Took To Live My Desire...

3 daily steps to your Authentic self

by Janet Jones YOUR Happiness Millionaire

                 Same view different weather!! Being your authentic self is about knowing your view but accepting the weather will change!!

It is very challenging being authentic in today’s society, yet it appears it is the one thing everyone needs to achieve in order to reach a consistent level of happiness to build life upon. Many people believe that if they had more money and a little financial freedom, they would be happy. This is not the truth; you will have financial freedom when you have become truly happy.

You see, the first challenge we face is, we live in a society that measures success and happiness by the size of a home and quality of personal possessions. Living up to this causes the most stress and creates a very big bridge between life and our authentic self.

The second greatest challenge is; many people are ‘people pleasers’ being afraid of rejection or not fully valuing themselves, putting other people’s needs before theirs. We must fill our own cup first before we can truly help others. This used to be me before I grew inside and reached my authentic self, a place to live honestly and true to my values. The authentic self, goes beyond pleasing just to be polite, the authentic self lives in the moment and helps others from the heart, not expecting or wanting anything in return. The authentic self will recognise when the help offered is coming from a place of lack of self esteem and the need to please others at the neglect of themselves, and will be able to change this.

The first step to true joy and happiness is discovering your authentic self, once discovered it will NOT go away. Life will become challenging as you make the transition from living life on the surface to living in the depths of truth. I believe the first half of life is spent discovering, learning and growing into the authentic self and the second half is being it! Authentic self is about being in the zone, YOUR zone. The authentic self isn’t scared or worried, it just is. It is there for each and every one of us asking to be found.

3 Fundamental Steps (and Benefits) to Finding Your Authentic Self

• Find WHO is at the root of you. If there was no such thing as lack of money, fear or failure - what would you do? By answering this (mainly by repeatedly asking yourself the question)... you get to live YOUR dream and your dream is NOT for sale! The energy and passion you put out from your heart will draw people in to support you and help make your dreams come true rather than others getting in the way.

• Let go of fear of criticism. It is THE major cause of most failures in people going after their dream life... With this attitude you don’t have to be anyone you are not, no more acting! You don’t need to look up to people and put others on a pedestal, because you are perfect just the way you are.

• Find people who already live true to their desires and surround yourself with their knowledge... BUT as Oscar Wilde says ‘Be yourself, everyone else is taken’. You can admire others and adopt habits that would allow you to be more of you but not so much that you want to be someone else. I have been creative all my life but I never respected that. My belief was that creative people had nothing and achieved nothing so I MADE myself become academic and I was very miserable, I also found myself with friends who I had nothing in common and found myself making things up just to be a part of that group! Fortunately, one day I discovered the value in my creativity and found an outlet for it that is authentic and very helpful to others.

Why??

When you can put the time aside to dig deep and find your authentic true self... you live in a place of truth and being truthful means you never have to remember anything! As Polonius said in Shakespeare’s play, Hamlet advised his son ‘to thine own self be true, 
and it must follow, as the night the day, 
thou canst not then be false to any man. ‘ Simple words of wisdom to add to your collection to make your way to doing what you love, with who you love and when you like.

You will have more confidence, more determination and push yourself out of your comfort zone in order to discover more of yourself and what you are truly capable of. Why should anyone be embarrassed of being who he or she is? We are all born unique, there is no one like you or me on the planet and the world needs each and everyone one of us. 

You can do and live your passion all your life. You know what life means and you can get on with it. You live healthier and happier and can earn a living doing what you love.
You have relationships built on truth. You will attract better relationships into your life and when they change you have the strength to say thank you for all we have had, it is time to move on.

How To Overcome Procrastination And Breakthrough To An Extraordinary And Fulfilling Life

Focus & Magnify Your Life: How to overcome procrastination the easy way.

(Below: Focus Image fromHappiness Millionaire RICH series)

What you focus on is magnified... If you focus on what you don’t want in your life, you get more of it. If you focus on what you do want, you get more of that. Sounds simple, but why are so many people unable to overcome procrastination, if getting what you want is so easy?

The mind is very complex but what we tend to ignore is that WE are in control of it, going about accepting what life throws at us, sometimes good, sometimes not so good. If you were completely in control of your mind, what would your life look like? How would YOU create it?

This Look and Grow RICH image represents focus and is a reminder that we must stay focused to set our world on fire. Each and every one of us, no matter where we are at in life can set our world (metaphorically speaking) on fire!

Our lives are determined by the quality of thoughts we have and what we focus our attentions on. You see, the mind always needs to focus on something, as it never stops working. It can be likened to a camera lens. If the camera lens can’t find anything to focus on it sounds like it is going into a panic, desperate to find something! The human mind is the same, it must focus on something, if it doesn’t have goals then it has problems. However, it takes energy to look and live life ‘on purpose’ and sometimes procrastination seems like the easy option. Procrastination is based on, what I call, surface distractions. The three most popular distractions are:

1. The TV, that one is easy, can’t think of anything to do, turn on the TV.

2. Mobile phone and social media. This distraction can be multi tasked with the TV! The mind now thinks you are busy. It is a procrastination TRAP!!

3. Food. Feeling bored? Eat. Struggling with a problem and want to avoid it? Eat. Feeling a little stressed at work? Eat.

However, the answer lies much deeper...

If you go beyond the surface distractions you are likely to find, no definite Desire for the mind to focus its attentions and passion on. Without a definite desire and knowing WHY you have this desire, you will struggle to overcome procrastination and magnify your life; you will always take the path of least resistance. Take time to look inside for your desire, when you have found it, use the focus image every day to keep you on track to a life you really want, knowing in your heart things can change. Use this image to focus your mind on your desire and to remind you, you are climbing to success; that you don’t just suddenly arrive there.

This lack of purpose and desire is then backed up with a lack of personal belief. The mind will believe whatever you tell it. If you tell your mind you don’t have a purpose or a desire to make life amazing it will believe you don’t deserve an amazing life and then your actions will support that belief. Procrastination equals lack of belief! Tell your mind you are amazing and life is exciting and that you believe you will find your desire, you will and life WILL be amazing.

The belief we have is always supported by internal language (the little voice in your head). You know, that little voice that will either encourage you or discourage you depending on how much belief and faith you have in yourself and how focused you are on achieving your desire. Without the internal language supporting us, it WILL speak to us in a negative way. Which is why we must stay focussed on our desire and not get distracted with confusion, surface distractions and negative conversations in order to magnify your life and overcome procrastination the easy way.
