- “Who do you get to “BE”? -

Our Natural Inherent Ability to “BE” the person we desire or seek to “BE”!!!

Throughout the years, while traveling the world delivering/facilitating “Leadership Trainings” I noticed something very interesting about the “Human Condition” that has intrigued me ever since. It is regarding the choice made in life to wait to act or put life on hold until certain life goals materialize. These goals I speak of may be the right job, promotion, relationship, friendship, salary, or “The Next” great opportunity. This waiting to “HAVE” a goal materialize before creating the conditions to manifest the goal always astounded me. As it goes directly against our natural born “Intrinsic/Inherent Ability” to “BE” exactly who we want to be. It is already within us, however the waiting or putting life on hold shuts it all down.

Allow me to explain…

The notion to “HAVE” > then “DO” to ultimately “BE” OR to “DO” > then “HAVE > to ultimately “BE” are ways of thinking that are diametrically opposed to our natural inherent/intrinsic ability. We are born with everything we need to self-actualize our goals. It begins with “BEing” who we want to be or what we seek … “BE” it while at the same time creating the conditions in your life so that you manifest all that you want to be or attract to you. If you “BE” it, you will ultimately be “Doing” it and then you will ultimately “HAVE” it.

So how do we get so off course from what is inherent within us? What reason could we possibly have to allow ourselves to wait, or stand on the sidelines while we wait for that ideal job or promotion to come to us?  I mean have we not been told to list our goals, know what we want, ask for what we want, etc. etc. etc. So, what gets in our way?? I call it the “DRIFT” of life, we fall in line with this drift. It has all of the draw of ‘collective thought’, the “Shoulds, Coulds and Woulds” that we must do first or have in place before we get the trophy so to speak. Bottom line these words “Should, Could and Would” are lack of ability words… they are NOT action words.

We get caught in the “DRIFT” and completely forget about our natural ability to attract all that we desire!! This ability to attract resides in “The FLOW” (Note: there is no pushing or forcing in the Flow. The heart is your guide). Only in this place can you “BE”, Create, etc.… My dear Dolphin friends know all about “The FLOW”. In my book “The Dolphin Lady, the story of a Unique Relationship”  I share many of our encounters in the flow!!

As human beings… beneath it all we are just magnets… we attract exactly what our mental models, thoughts, feelings, beliefs are in any moment directly to us. Just look around, is your current thinking, i.e., I am not good enough, there so much work I must do first, I will never get this done, there is not enough time in a day, I do not have enough money, I need the perfect resume... standing right before your eyes in this current moment?

So, what if you just threw all caution to the wind, LET GO/Surrender all those thoughts and mental models and just simply connect to your deepest desires? For example, “BE” the type of leader you must be to get that ideal job… OR to attract the right partner? If you do not know the specific details then go find people that already have what you want… watch them, read about them, listen to them, ask them how they got there. When it comes to that promotion read the job description/post practice the responsibilities and BE the qualifications! Ultimately… Learn and BE Curious” without expectation!!!

Then… What do you think may happen if you “BE” the qualities of that promotion/ideal job??? Yes, your inner magnet may just attract all that you are “BEing” right in front of you… It IS that SIMPLE!!!

Surrender it all, everything, step out of the DRIFT and into the “FLOW” and just “BE” in the world!! Magic may just happen.
