Why Are We Born In The First Place?

One of our greatest desires as human beings is to live a meaningful and fulfilling life. So, how do you do that? The answer is in the answer to a question that most of us have wondered at one point in our life which is Why was I born?
 
You were born to do your creator’s work and fulfill a purpose by using your own unique gifts and natural talents that have been given. The common purpose of every human being is to learn and grow through our life experiences and challenges, serve other people, and make their lives better.
 
So, you may be wondering, where were you before you were born? Let’s discuss that next.
 
Where were we before we were born?
 
Your soul was with your creator. You agreed and volunteered to reincarnate at this time into a body so you can grow, fulfill a purpose, and help other people who are currently on this earth that need your help.
 
Let’s discuss next things that you knew before you were born that you may have now forgotten. It is important to remember these so you can live your meaningful, impactful, fulfilling, and best life.

7 Things You Knew Before You Were Born

You knew exactly why you were coming on this earth when you were in your mother’s womb. The order in which everything happened like when your heart started functioning when your soul entered the body, and when your lungs developed was all according to the divine plan and timing by your creator.
 
Once you are born, the family, community, and society take over and the conditioning begins. They may have the best of intentions for you, however they can only teach you what they were taught by their parents.
 
You are taught how to behave and told what your limits are. You learn how to behave and act to get their approval so you can feel loved by them.
 
Remember you have come through your parents however you are here to fulfill your soul’s calling and purpose. Let’s remember things that you knew before you were born that you may have now forgotten so you can begin to understand why you are here before it is too late.

You Are An Eternal Soul

You are an eternal soul that is here on this earth temporarily. You are a soul that is having a temporary human experience in this body. You are an energetic, cosmic being who is an individualized expression of your creator. Your body will die, but your soul never dies.
 
It will be free, vast, and not bound, contained, and restricted in your body upon death. Your soul will return to your creator upon your death. Take the time to sit in silence and listen to your soul’s whispers because it knows exactly why you are here and what you are here to do.

Your True Power

You are a powerful soul who was made in your creator’s image. You were born with the inner wisdom that you need to navigate through all of life’s challenges and fulfill your purpose. All the answers that you seek are within you.
 
Stop seeking the answers to your challenges and struggles on the outside. Learn to sit in silence, connect to your creator, and access the answers to all your questions.

You also have access to your creator’s divine mind, intelligence, and strength. You are very powerful and nobody else has authority over you and your life. Do not give your power away and always remember no one and nothing can make you feel any way unless you allow it/them. You have the inner wisdom to live your very best life that you are here to live.

Your True Nature

You are pure love, peace, joy, compassion, well-being, kindness, and abundance by nature. They are the qualities of your soul which is your true essence. Learn to live your authentic life by listening to and aligning with your soul and fulfilling its calling.
 
Know that whenever you do not feel good and feel anger, frustration, jealousy, judgement, and negativity, you are aligning with your ego at that moment instead of your soul. Connect to your creator regularly and remember your true nature and qualities to align back to your soul throughout the day.

You Are Here To Grow

You are here to grow so having challenges in life is inevitable. You must learn the lessons quickly so that the same challenges do not have to repeat before you learn the lesson. How much you suffer as you go through these challenges is your choice.
 
Learn to accept and live life in trust that everything is happening for your greatest good and growth. Seek growth throughout your life so that you can serve in a bigger and better way.

You Are Here Now For A Reason

You are here on this earth at this time to serve a purpose. It is not an accident. You matter and are enough to be able to serve your purpose in the body that you are in no matter your colour, size, gender, and race. You have been given unique gifts to use to help and serve others who need you.
 
Discover your purpose and unique gifts and start helping others before it is too late and your time here on earth is done. Don’t die with regrets and unfulfilled purpose, dreams, and potential

You Chose Your Relationships

You chose your parents and relationships as a soul to experience and learn different lessons so you can grow. This is an important thing to be aware of especially if you have difficulty getting along with your family. You need to go through the challenge and growth so you can awaken, fulfill your purpose, and serve others in a bigger and better way.

You Are Here To Co-create Your World

You are here to co-create your world with your creator.  You are here to do your creator’s work as an individualized expression of your creator.
Your creator is always available to support you.
 
Sit in silence connect with your creator every single day and make sure you’re listening to your inner guidance and your soul’s whispers and guidance.

In conclusion, you were born to do your creator’s work and fulfill a purpose by using your own unique gifts and natural talents that have been given. The common purpose of every human being is to learn and grow through our life experiences and challenges, serve other people, and make their lives better.

Your soul was with your creator. You agreed and volunteered to reincarnate at this time into a body so you can grow, fulfill a purpose, and help other people who are currently on this earth that need your help.
 
You also now remember some of the things that you knew before you were born that you may have now forgotten. You knew that you are an eternal soul, how powerful you are, your true nature and qualities, you are here to grow, you are here now for a reason and purpose, you chose your parents and relationships, you are here to do your creator’s world and to co-create your world.

Can Childhood Affect Your Adulthood?

Two adults while watching the same movie or looking at the same thing would be having a different inner dialogue and thoughts going on in their heads. They would use different thought processes to make decisions in their life. Why? Does it have anything to do with their childhood? Can your childhood affect who you become as an adult?
 
Yes, most definitely your childhood lessons and experiences, both good and bad do affect your adulthood. They shape and influence your personality, self-image and esteem, and affect your mental and physical health which then impacts and determines the quality of your life experiences and relationships.

How Does A Person’s Childhood Affect Adulthood?

Most of your beliefs and perceptions are formed by the age of seven based on what you hear, see, and experience as a child. At that age, you trust and are most influenced by the people around you.
 
These beliefs get filed and stored in your brain, become a part of your subconscious mind, and they dictate and influence every decision you make in life like a computer program without your consciousness knowledge.
 
Your perception, identity, and beliefs lead to habitual thoughts, feelings, words you speak, behaviour, actions, and habits you form which then leads to your results and destiny in life. You create your life and reality from your perception, identity, beliefs, and thoughts.
 
If you grew up in a supportive, loving, and caring environment, you will thrive, do well, and become a well-adjusted adult. If you were micromanaged by your parents, you may have lower self-esteem, confidence, and a lot of fear as an adult.
 
You might also have a tough time making decisions and will have high expectations and depend on other people in your life as an adult.

How To Unlearn Childhood Lessons

When we are first born, we are connected to our creator, know exactly why we are here, and what purpose we are here to fulfill. Then, we are guided and shaped by our loving best-intentioned parents, teachers, friends, community, and society and we are often misled and trained to conform to what others want us to do with our lives.
 
We agree to abide by their rules so that we can feel loved by them. We forget our purpose and power and we go down a path that’s not meant for us.
 
Let’s go over eight lessons that you can unlearn before it is too late because they are not serving you and are blocking you from fulfilling your purpose.

Do Not Show Emotions

Growing up, you probably heard people tell you to not cry or get angry as a child. There is nothing wrong with feeling and expressing your emotions. Emotions serve a purpose or they wouldn’t be coming up.
 
Emotions guide you to transform and be a better aligned higher version of yourself. If you are not feeling love, joy, compassion, and abundance then you know that you are not aligned with your soul’s qualities and are misaligned.
 
Spend some time in silence, sit with your feelings, and ask yourself why you are feeling that way. Know that it is okay to cry if you feel like it and release the stress hormones through your tears rather than bottling it up and letting it sit and turn into health issues in your body.
 
Most of the time it is your thoughts, identity, and beliefs that are leading you astray and making you not feel good. Be aware of these thoughts and begin replacing them with the ones that align with who you are and where you are going in life.

Bad Grades Mean Lower Intelligence

You may have heard you are not smart because you are not getting good grades in school. You may have a genius that is not recognized or valued in schools. There are many different areas where you can be a genius.

Grades do not reflect how intelligent you are. Giving your best effort should always be a priority and do not let it affect your self-image, esteem, and confidence. Trust that life happens for you and stay open to universal guidance.

You Can Get Everything You Want

You may have been told you can get everything you want. You cannot get everything you want without working for it. Things are not just going to fall into your lap without any action. You can get everything you want only if you have the right identity, beliefs, thoughts, feelings, actions, and habits.
 
You co-create your life with your creator who is always available to guide you. You also have to trust and be patient that sometimes the things that you want and are asking for are not good for you and the universe has bigger and better things planned for you.

You Have To Fit In

You were probably also told you should fit in, and be like others who have qualities that society values and do not stand out. You do not have to fit in and compare yourself to others who are on their path. Always be your authentic self. You are meant to fulfill your purpose by being whoever you are including all of your quirks.
 
Other’s people’s judgments about you should not matter. When you embrace your truth, you also may inspire someone else who is like you to do so. Connect to your creator regularly and ask for guidance so you can fulfill your purpose while here on this earth.

Failure Is The Worse Outcome

You probably heard failure is the worst outcome. Failure is not the worst outcome. It is simply feedback to learn from so you can pivot and course-correct towards the correct path which will lead you towards your purpose.
 
It is better to take action and fail in life than to live a mediocre, hopeless, and unhappy life. Take action so you can gain clarity and be guided to live a life of purpose and meaning.

It Is Unacceptable To Take A Break

You were told it is unacceptable to take a break it important to always keep busy. It is very important to take a break and spend some time in the quiet. You will be able to hear your soul’s whispers and guidance. If you always stay in the doing, noise, and distractions, you will only hear the screams of your ego.
 
The doing, resting, and listening to your guidance should be in flow for you to live your best life of purpose and meaning. Try to spend some of your quiet time out in nature.

You Should Be Punished For Small Mistakes

You were probably punished for small mistakes and accidents. Everyone will inevitably have accidents and make small mistakes. The goal is to learn from these mistakes and accidents and know how to mitigate or avoid them from happening repeatedly if they are in your control.
 
Your parents mean well and it is their role to keep you safe however do not live in the past, feel guilty, and have regrets about mistakes that you made in the past especially if they were not in your control. Work on growing and improving from mistakes and accidents that are in your control.

It Is Okay To Judge Others

You heard comments and were made to believe it is okay to feel superior and judge others. You should never feel superior over people who look different from you and make fun of them or mistreat them. We are all the same on the inside and have all come from the same creator. We are all souls that are having a temporary human experience.
 
Everyone is in the right body, colour, and gender, to fulfill their purpose here on earth. You matter and are enough because you are. Your creator has never told you that you’re not enough so you don’t have to believe that at all. 
 
Stand up for and help people if you see someone discriminating against them. Teach your friends and family that it’s not okay to judge others as the pandemic has shown us how connected we are. No one was spared from the virus. This world would be much better if we all worked together rather than against each other because of how we look on the outside.

In conclusion, you now know that yes, your childhood lessons and experiences, both good and bad do affect your adulthood. They shape and influence your personality, self-image and esteem, and affect your mental and physical health which then impacts and determines the quality of your life experiences and relationships.
 
Most of your beliefs and perceptions are formed by the age of seven based on what you hear, see, and experience as a child. Your perception, identity and beliefs, lead to habitual thoughts, feelings, words you speak, your behaviour and actions and habits you form which then lead to your results and destiny in life.
 
If you grew up in a supportive, loving, and caring environment you will thrive, do well, and become a well-adjusted adult. If you were micromanaged by your parents, you may have lower self-esteem, confidence, and lots of fear as an adult, and will have a tough time making decisions, have high expectations, and depend on other people in your life as an adult.
 
You also learnt which lessons to unlearn because they are not serving you and blocking you from fulfilling your purpose are not showing emotions, thinking that bad grades reflect your intelligence, you can get anything, you have to fit in, failure is the worse outcome, it is unacceptable to take a break, you should be punished for small mistakes and accidents, and it is okay to judge others.
 
Questioning and examining your identity beliefs, and perceptions do not end here. It is a lifelong process that you should continue to do. Replace and adopt identity, beliefs, and perceptions that serve you and help you fulfill your purpose and live your very best meaningful and impactful life.

What Is Lifestyle Business?

We live in the best of times and have a lot of choices to generate income in many different suitable ways. The 9-5 working at the office model, building someone else’s dream is no longer the only option available to us to maintain our lifestyle.
 
There have been mass resignations recently after the pandemic due to more people looking for a better way to live their life that is more balanced. One way to live a more balanced life is by starting your own lifestyle business.
 
A lifestyle business is built in alignment with your desired perfect day and dream lifestyle. It gives you the flexibility and freedom to live your best life your way. It is often earning a full-time income on your terms, doing something you enjoy, love, are skilled at and are passionate about doing without compromising your core values, well-being, and vision for your life.
 
So, you may be wondering, how do you build a lifestyle business? Let’s discuss that next.

How To Build A Lifestyle Business

So many people make the mistake of choosing their work/career/business first and then trying to squeeze and fit their life into it even if that means compromising their health, values, and relationships with their loved ones. This leads to you feeling miserable, misaligned with your Soul’s calling, and not fulfilled no matter how much money you earn.
 
Let’s discuss some things to consider if you want to start building a lifestyle business.

Know What Puts You In A Flow

Know what you love doing. When you do it for a while, you go into a flow state. You could do this work forever and do not realize how much time has passed. You feel inner joy and happiness when you do it. Consider starting a business around this activity and work will never feel like work again. 

Discover Your Natural Talents

Discover your skills, unique gifts, and natural talents. What comes naturally to you? What are your unique gifts? Get some clues by asking the following questions: What did you enjoy doing as a child? What do people ask you to help them with? What do people compliment you on? The answers to these questions will give you further clues about the areas to consider building your business in. 

Determine Your Perfect Day

Figure out what your perfect day would look like. What time would you want to wake up? Who are you next to when you wake up? Where do you live? What is your morning routine? Do you meditate? Pray? How much time do you spend out in nature?
 
How many hours do you want to work? What time do you want to start and end your workday? How many breaks do you want to take? Do you want to work at home? Commute to work? With a team or alone? How much time do you want to spend with your family and loved ones daily? 
 
Do you want to travel for work? Pleasure? How much time do you want to spend reading, learning, and growing? What type of food are you putting into your body? What time do you want to eat? Sleep? Make sure you take the time to answer these questions so you can build your business around your desired day and life.

Understand Different Business Models

Research, understand, validate, and test different lifestyle business models and determine which one suits your lifestyle, values, vision, and life and business goals the best. Online business is the best option especially if you need to have location freedom.
 
Some of the benefits of an online lifestyle business are lower start cost, you can have the flexibility to live and work anywhere in the world, the ability to quickly validate, explore, and test a passion project, have customers all over the world, and have diverse and multiple streams of income.
 
Some types and examples of online lifestyle business models that you can consider starting are providing virtual coaching sessions and packages in different areas of life, creating and selling digital courses, freelancing, being an online influencer, building a niche software application, and selling physical products online and many more. 

Know Yourself

It is very important to know yourself to decide what business would be good for you to start and be successful in. Are you an introvert or an extrovert? Do people give you energy or do they drain your energy? If you are an introvert and people drain your energy, you do not want to build a business as a speaker.
 
You would be hired to speak to thousands of people in a room. It would be more suitable for you to do one-on-one coaching and be in front of just one person. If you are an extrovert you can consider building a business as a speaker or doing one-to-many group coaching models and packages. Know what gives you joy and follow it.

Know What Is Important To You

Know what is important to you. What problem frustrates you that you have solved for yourself and now want to help others solve? Who do you want to help? Most of the time, your “who” is who you used to be before you solved this problem for yourself.

Figure Out What The World Needs?

Figure out what the world needs. You are here at this time for a reason. What is your purpose and how will you serve others, make a difference, and leave this world better than when you first came and found it? When you align your business and purpose, your life will be full of bliss.
 
So, if you’re not happy, please take some time to figure out what is it that gives you joy because we’re not here to live a miserable life. We’re here to live a life of bliss, joy, meaning and fulfillment. You are powerful enough to fulfill your purpose no matter your circumstances, colour, size, race, and/or gender. We are all a part of the human race and we all have a part to play to better this world.

In conclusion, you now know that a lifestyle business should be highly desired because it is built-in alignment with your desired perfect day and dream lifestyle. It gives you the flexibility and freedom to live your best life your way. It is often earning a full-time income on your terms, doing something you enjoy, love, are skilled at and are passionate about doing without compromising your core values, well-being, and vision for your life.
 
You also know what to take into consideration when you are building a lifestyle business like knowing what puts you in a flow, discovering your natural talents, determining your perfect day, understanding different business models, knowing yourself, knowing what is important to you, and what the world needs.
 
You should consider starting your lifestyle purpose-driven business especially if you are not happy with the current work that you do. Know that you always have a choice and you are never helpless and/or hopeless. You are divine, made by your creator, and have access to your creator’s divine mind, intelligence, and strength. I am sending you love and strength! 
 
Best of luck with your journey!

Guiding you to transform and live your best inner driven meaningful, fulfilling and confident life that you deserve and serve others with in ways you were born to is what we do.
 
If this sounds like you, let’s explore if working together is a good fit.

What Is Consciousness?

Most of us live our life unconsciously and unintentionally. We constantly compare ourselves to others, let other people’s opinions affect our self-image, and confidence and allow them to dictate and tell us what we can do with our lives and what we cannot. We are far from living our conscious authentic life. So, what is consciousness?
 
Consciousness is a knowing that your true essence is a pure and powerful soul that is having a temporary human experience. An awareness that you are a cosmic being and an individualized expression of your creator. You are not your habitual thoughts, body, roles, occupation, titles, race, colour, or gender but rather an observer of all those things.
 
You intentionally make every decision in life like setting goals, choosing an identity, thoughts, beliefs, and actions and living every area of your life consciously, intentionally, and in alignment with the qualities of your soul which are purity, peace, love, power, kindness, abundance, and joy.
 
So, you may be wondering next, why should you aspire to live a more conscious life? Let’s discuss that next.

Why Live A Conscious Life?

We are here on this earth for a short time and if you want to live your best harmonious, meaningful, purposeful, blissful, and fulfilling life, then it is important to live your conscious and authentic life by knowing and accepting exactly who you are, why you are here, (purpose), what is your vision in different areas of your life and your core values.
 
So, are you living your life of infinite possibilities as a powerful soul consciously or are you living a conditioned life of limited possibilities that you have been led to believe? Let’s discuss the different levels of consciousness that you could currently possibly be living in.

Levels Of Consciousness

It is important to know what level of consciousness you are living your life from because that will determine how you react to life’s circumstances and challenges.

Let’s describe below four different stages of the evolution of your consciousness so you can start identifying which stage you are in and start consciously changing if you are not satisfied with your current level.

Living Like A Victim

In this stage, you feel like you are a victim with no control, are hopeless, helpless, and that life is happening to you. You blame other people and circumstances for all the things that you do not like in your life. You are not aligned to your soul’s high vibration qualities and are instead operating and living at a very low vibrational energy. You tend to ask why is this happening to me.

Knowing You Create Your Reality

In this stage, you begin to awaken, realize your power and know life happens by you and you are 100% responsible to create your life. You create your reality by having the right identity, beliefs, thoughts, feelings, actions, words habits, and personality which then gives you results and creates your destiny. 
 
The sooner you consciously choose and change your identity, thoughts, beliefs, words, and actions, to the ones that serve you the sooner you can change your results, and destiny.

Living Inside Out

In this stage, you realize that life is happening through you. You know that you are a powerful soul with the body and not the other way around and that you can live life from the inside out and the wisdom for your best life is within you. 
 
You are connected to your creator, are here for a reason, and you know that your soul will guide you to your purpose because it knows everything.  Have faith, trust and follow your soul and your heart and you’ll be guided to fulfill your purpose. You are powerful and you will be able to fulfill your purpose despite what you look like.
 
You know you can turn inward to connect to your creator and experience your soul’s qualities which are peace, joy, love, compassion, and kindness. You don’t get caught up in the outer world chaos and let that dictate how you react in life and choose to respond instead. You learn to meditate, sit in silence, and listen to your soul’s whispers, intuition, and guidance.  

Knowing You Can Change The World

You realize that you are connected to your creator’s strength, mind, and intelligence and can co-create and change the world. You know we have all come from the same creator and despite how different we may look and we are all connected and the same on the inside. Our collective thoughts and consciousness impact all of us.
 
You know you matter or else you would be not here.  You are enough the way you are and you can change the world for the better. Start by fulfilling your purpose by helping others with your unique gifts and natural talents.
 
Align with your creator and receive the guidance to change the world, that’s why you’re here. You are here to fulfill a purpose that only you can. Connect with your creator and figure out how to listen to your loving guidance(intuition). 
 
Listen to your guidance while you meditate or spend some time in silence hearing the whispers of your soul and then figure out what your vision is for your life and let the vision pull you towards it.

In conclusion, you now know consciousness is a knowing that your true essence is a pure and powerful soul that is having a temporary human experience. You are aware that you are a cosmic being and an individualized expression of your creator.
 
You are also aware that you are not your habitual thoughts, body, roles, occupation, titles, race, colour, or sex but rather an observer of all those things.
 
You make every decision in life-like setting goals, choosing your identity, thoughts, and beliefs and living every area of your life consciously in alignment with the qualities of your soul which are purity, peace, love, compassion, abundance and joy.

TELL US WHAT IS YOUR BIGGEST CHALLENGE CURRENTLY THAT PREVENT’S YOU FROM LIVING A MORE CONSCIOUS LIFE?

Is Spending Money Bad?

Money is a tool that helps you sustain the mission, purpose, and lifestyle that you desire to live. It is neutral, but we give it our biased energy and charge which is dependent on our relationship with money.
 
Your relationship with money is influenced by your beliefs, thoughts, and programming which are formed in our childhood based on how we witnessed our parent’s and caretaker’s relationship with their money. You may love to spend money or you may be scared to spend your money.
Which one is better? Is spending money bad?
 
No, it is not bad to spend your money. However, it is important that you do so consciously, intentionally, and not buy things because of societal or peer pressure. It is good to have a spending plan in place because it provides freedom and guides you to save for tomorrow, invest for the future, and spend some for today based on your needs, and wants and in alignment with your values.
 
So, you may be wondering, why do you feel guilty and have regrets after spending your money? Let’s discuss that next.

Why Do I Regret Spending My Money?

One of the most common reasons you may feel guilty after spending your money is that you did not do so intentionally and were pressured or influenced by someone else to do so especially if it was not aligned with your values. You felt fear of missing out and bought what you think you shouldn’t have.
 
You may also feel guilty because you think you are not worthy and deserving enough to purchase that particular product or service. Fear of not having enough money, it running out, and scarcity thinking are other big reasons that you may not feel good about after spending your money. 
 
Let’s discuss the thoughts that are good for you to think when spending your money instead of the ones that cause you to feel guilt and regrets.

7 Good Money Spending Thoughts

These 7 thoughts mentioned below would be good for you to adopt, incorporate, and make a part of your habitual thought pattern every time you spend your money, especially when paying bills. They will help you change from feeling guilt, regret, and experiencing tightness, and uneasiness in your stomach to feeling good and abundant.

Thank You For My Money

Always be grateful for all of the money that you are blessed and trusted with by your creator. You can now spend it, pay your bills with it, and do not feel bad to let it flow to other people.

Thank You For The Opportunity To Serve

Express gratitude for your creator giving you the means to serve others with your money. You can give back and donate some of your money to different causes and charities that need it and matter to you.
 
You can also serve others by paying your bills because the owner of the company then uses your money to pay their employees and buy food and other things for their families. You are letting the money flow from you to other people again, participating in the economy, and being of service to other people.

There Is A Lot More Where That Came From

Always remember to tell yourself that there is a lot more money where that came from because we are living in a very abundant world. Most of the time we block the abundance that is our birthright by our identity, limiting money beliefs, and thoughts.
 
You attract what you believe, think about, and focus on so be aware and choose to think abundant thoughts and have the right beliefs to keep the money flowing to you.

There Is More Than Enough To Go Around

There is more than enough money to go around. There is an abundant amount of money for everyone and it can never be depleted. Do not feel bad about having and spending your money because it does not mean that someone else will have less or go without.
 
It is up to them to take the responsibility to work on their money mindset, acquire the right skills, serve others, and earn the money for themselves. Even during a recession, money does not disappear. It simply flows to people who have the right identities, beliefs, thoughts, and actions to take to attract and manifest this money.

I Am A Money Magnet

Remind yourself that you are a money magnet. Align with the frequency of abundance by right identity, beliefs, and thoughts and attract more money into your life. Discover your purpose, take the right actions, and be of service to others with your unique gifts and natural talents and money will be attracted and flow to you.

The purpose of every human being is to grow and serve others. The more you do that and align with your soul and your creator the more blissful, meaningful, abundant, and fulfilling your life will get.

I Can Create More

You are a powerful being and your life has infinite possibilities. You can create more money and whatever you desire provided it does not harm anyone else and is aligned to your soul, creator, and purpose. You are pure, loving, peaceful, compassionate, abundant, kind, and powerful by nature.
 
You are an individualized expression of your creator and therefore you can tap into your creator’s divine intelligence, strength, and mind for assistance at any time. The more you create, the more you can give to others in an unlimited capacity. Time is limited and so there is only a limited amount you can give in service to others.

I Feel Good When I Spend My Money

You should feel good when you spend your money because you’re letting the money flow from you to others who need it. Money likes speed and when you hoard it gets stagnant. You deserve to feel good when you spend your money on yourself, family, friends, and charities and to pay all your bills.

In conclusion, you now know that it is not bad to spend your money. However, it is important that you do so consciously, intentionally, and not buy things because of societal or peer pressure.
 
It is good to have a spending plan (budget) in place because it provides freedom and guides you to save for tomorrow, invest for the future, and spend some for today based on your needs, and wants and in alignment with your values guilt-free.
 
You may feel regret and guilt after spending your money when you did not do so intentionally and were pressured or influenced by someone else to do so especially if it was not aligned with your values.
 
You may also feel guilty because you think you are not worthy and deserving enough to purchase that particular product or service. Fear of not having enough money, it running out, and scarcity thinking are other big reasons that you may not feel good after spending your money. 
 
Some of the thoughts that are good for you to think when spending your money are: thank you for my money, thank you for the opportunity to serve with my money, there is a lot more where that came from, there is more than enough to go around, I am a money magnet, I can create more, and I feel good when I spend my money instead of the ones that cause you to feel guilt and regrets.

Why Is It Important To Manage Your Stress And Anxiety?

We all experience stress as we navigate through our lives today. Some of us are better at coping with life’s stressors and societal pressures than others. All of us need to learn how to manage our stress and anxiety. Why?
 
It is important to know how to manage your stress so that your body does not feel that it is in constant danger, stay in a high alert state, and continuously release stress hormones and other chemicals in your body. 
 
Over time if left unaddressed, it can lead to serious physical and mental health issues like depression. It can also have adverse effects on all your relationships and prevent you from living your best life.
 
You may be wondering what stress and anxiety exactly do to your body. Let’s discuss that next.

What Stress And Anxiety Do To Your Body

Stress is a body’s normal reaction to potential danger and anticipated threats. Your body releases chemicals and hormones like adrenaline and cortisol which then cause your heart to beat faster and blood to flow to your extremities preparing you for fight or flight so that you can away from danger. 
 
You also may experience physical symptoms like aches and pains, headaches, dizziness or shaking, restlessness, exhaustion, trouble sleeping or sleeping too much, muscle tension or jaw clenching, irritability, anger, fatigue, muscle pain, stomach or digestive issues and trouble having sex.
 
Prolonged exposure to stressors can lead to many other serious health issues like depression, anxiety, and personality disorders. Anxiety is the body’s reaction to stress.
 
It leads to bad decision making, problems with memory or concentration, racing thoughts, and excessive persistent worries about the anticipated future without the presence of the actual stressor. 

Heart palpitations and rapid breathing patterns are also common when going through an anxiety attack. It is also possible to experience high blood pressure which can then lead to abnormal heart rhythms, cardiovascular, and heart disease or attacks and strokes.
 
So, what can we do to manage stress and anxiety? One way is to form habits that help you manage stress and anxiety. Let’s discuss what those are next.

12 Habits To Manage Stress And Anxiety

Over the last few years, we have been experiencing additional stress and anxiety due to the pandemic. It has not been easy to feel peace and joy given these circumstances. When we are not feeling peace, joy, love, and compassion it is hard to create our best life and fulfill our purpose.
 
Here are 10 habits that will help you deal with stress and anxiety and have you feeling peaceful and joyful again.

Wake Up Earlier

Start waking up a little bit earlier every day instead of continuously hitting the snooze button and then running around in the morning, screaming at your loved ones, and unnecessarily adding stress and anxiety into your day first thing in the morning.
 
The extra time will enable you to start your day proactively, and peacefully and will help you attract more moments of peace throughout the day. You will be able to respond to people and circumstances instead of reacting to them.

Smile

Smile and express gratitude as soon as your eyes open instead of thinking negative thoughts about the day that you have been blessed with and are about to experience. Smiling releases good hormones into your body that help you feel good.
 
Also think of all things you have to be grateful for. Gratitude will enable you to experience joy and help you raise your energy and align to your true self(soul).

Have A Morning Routine

Practice self-care every single day and start your day with a morning routine to feed your mind, body, and soul even if it is only for a couple of minutes given the season of life that you may be in. Your soul is currently housed in your body and therefore it is important that your body and mind are in a good state so that you can do the work you came here to do. 
 
Do some deep breathing, exercise, and move your body even if you put on your favourite upbeat music and dance. Remember to drink water and fuel your body with good healthy food.
 
Have a plan for your day, read or listen to something inspiring and positive for your mind, set intentions and visualize your day and all your meetings going well. Quiet your mind and spend some time in silence to align with and hear your soul, pray, and connect to your creator. 

Meditate

Meditate every day and experience numerous associated health benefits. It is equivalent to charging yourself like you always charge your phone. Even a few minutes of meditation would be beneficial.
 
There are many different ways to begin your meditation practice. Choose the one that works for you. Even if you were to find a quiet comfortable place, close your eyes and repeat “I am love, I am love, I am love.” You will begin feeling your energy shift. You will feel more creative, calm, and at peace. 

Hydrate

Drink enough water throughout the day and especially first thing in the morning after fasting for a lot of hours. Your organs need water. Our body is composed of mostly water and can not function optimally without water. You will be agitated, react quicker, and experience brain fog and headaches if you do not hydrate.

Spend Time In Nature

Spend some time out in nature and recharge every single day if possible. Feel the loving energy from the trees, peace around bodies of water, hear the birds sing, smell the flowers, walk on grass bare feet, and feel and connect to mother earth. If you are unable to go out in nature, listen to or watch scenes and sounds of nature.

Avoid Negativity

Avoid consuming negativity especially first thing in the morning. Do not look at messages and emails on your phone and start falling into someone else’s agenda for you. Do not watch negative news because the media is biased and portrays negativity more than positivity. Negativity gets more people to watch their channel. Be careful with what you are consuming and letting in because whatever you consume is what you become. 

Stop Negative Self-Talk

Be aware of your mental negative self-talk and habitual thoughts. You create your life you’re your thoughts and beliefs. What we say and think of ourselves is exactly what we would never say to or think about a friend then why say those things to ourselves. Catch those thoughts and start deleting and changing them.
 
You are special and have been created to be in a perfect body, colour, and gender to fulfill your purpose so stop saying negative things about yourself. Do not let others and society dictate your worth.

Sleep At The Same Time

Make sure to go to bed early and at the same time every day. Your brain rejuvenates and restores itself between the hours of 10:00-2:00 and you may miss this function if you are awake. 

Have An Evening Routine

Have an evening routine before bed. Shut off all electronics and stop watching tv an hour before you go to bed. Read for a few minutes, meditate and think of all the things you are grateful for as you fall asleep. You will have a better, more peaceful sleep and the chances of you getting stressed out and anxious will be less.

Respond

Identify your triggers and stressors. Avoid them if possible or if you can not control them then learn to master and develop yourself so you can have healthy responses rather than getting angry and caught up in the moments.
 
Remember you are bigger than any problem that you may be facing. Learn to set healthy boundaries for yourself so you can avoid too much negativity and exposure to unpleasant situations. You do not always say yes to everyone else especially if it drains your energy.

Have Support Available

It is important to have people in your life who can help you and support you when you need them. This could be a family member, circle of friends, people from your place of worship, neighbours, or a therapist.

In conclusion, now you know it is important to know how to manage your stress so that your body does not feel that it is in constant danger, stay in a high alert state, and continuously releases stress hormones and other chemicals in your body. 

Over time if it is left unaddressed, it can lead to serious physical and mental health issues like anxiety and depression. It can also have adverse effects on your relationships and your overall quality of life.

Can Confidence Make You Attractive?

Everyone should learn how to be confident to live their authentic and best life. You can not design your own life of purpose and meaning if you do not have the confidence to set out your course in life and not worry about somebody else’s opinion and plans for your life. Does that make you less attractive and liked by others or can confidence make you more attractive?
 
Yes, confidence most definitely can make you more attractive. People feel your energy, aura, and charisma, and get intrigued, inspired, and drawn to you when you exude self-confidence. It is contagious and makes other people want to be around you with the hope of eventually modelling, emulating, and knowing how to be a confident individual like you are.
 
So, you may be wondering next, what are some other reasons that confidence makes you attractive?  Let’s discuss that next.

Why Does Confidence Make You Attractive

It makes you attractive because in most cases it equates to you having a good self-image, esteem, and self-assurance. You care about yourself, and your appearance, carry yourself well and have a good posture. You sit and stand more upright, occupy more space, talk to people while maintaining eye contact, speak with authority, and are more believable.
 
So how can you be confident? Let’s now discuss some ways a confident woman is different from others.

12 Ways A Confident Woman Is

A confident woman does not let her life, and what she does with it be dictated to her gender and the expectations of others and the society that she lives in.
 
Here are 12 ways that a confident woman lives differently from any other woman.

Knows Herself

She knows she is a soul that is having a temporary human experience. She is an extension and individualized expression of her creator (higher power). She can connect, and tap into her creator’s divine strength, intellect, and guidance anytime. She believes in herself and always knows that she is bigger than any problem or challenge that she may face.

Not Afraid To Shine Her Light

She is not afraid to shine her light and speaks with certainty because she knows that she is here to serve a purpose, inspire, and help others or she wouldn’t be there. The more she shines her light, the more she lights the path for others to do the same.
 
So, she does not have an issue shining her light and using her unique gifts despite others’ opinions and judgement. She was born to fulfill her soul’s calling and purpose and nothing will stop her from doing that.

Knows Her Worth

She knows that her worth is not determined by her gender or tied to her different roles, titles, and social status. She feels worthy because she is here or she wouldn’t be here. There is nothing wrong with her if she does not like doing the chores that society dictates a woman should be good at doing like cleaning, cooking, having and looking after her children, etc.
 
She knows she is here to fulfill a purpose within this body, colour, and race and is not afraid to be judged or not understood by others. She is here to impact the world in a way that only she can with her unique gifts and natural talents.

Takes 100% Responsibility

She takes one hundred percent responsibility to create her own life and does not cast blame on someone else. She knows that if she wants to create her own authentic life then it’s up to her to create it. She can create her best life and not rely on someone else to give her that lifestyle.
 
Nobody else is responsible for creating that life for her and she’s well aware of that. She can design her life by intentionally choosing her identity, beliefs, and thoughts that she thinks to make her feel a certain way, words she speaks, and actions she takes which then lead to her habits and destiny.

Takes Care Of Herself

She takes care of herself physically, emotionally, and spiritually. The more she takes care of herself, the more she can serve in a bigger and better way from the overflow. She knows her creator has given her inner wisdom and a life with infinite possibilities. She takes care of her body which houses the soul by exercising, eating healthy foods, etc.

She also has rituals to keep her connected to her creator for guidance and for mastering her mind and emotions. When you are aligned to your soul and are peaceful, joyful, and feel abundant, you are more inclined to want to fulfill your purpose and serve others.

Does Not Compare

She does not compare herself to others and robs her joy. She knows she is here on her journey to live an authentic inside-out life and not the other way around. The only person she compares herself to is herself and as long as she is growing and becoming a better version of herself then she is happy. She does not feel any need to seek attention and approval from others.

Emotionally Independent

She is emotionally independent. She knows that she is not a victim. Nobody else can determine how she feels unless she gives them the power over her to do so and reacts to them. She knows her feelings stem from her identity, thoughts, and beliefs. She lives her life from the inside out and chooses to respond to the outer circumstances rather than reacting.

Responsible For Own Happiness

She knows that she is responsible for her happiness. She knows what makes her happy and intentionally spends time doing the things that give her joy. She is content and derives pleasure and satisfaction from her accomplishments. She never relies on things outside her control to make her experience happiness.

Always Improving

She always challenges herself to improve and grow every day. Every human being’s purpose is to grow which would enable him/her to then serve others in a bigger and better way. She is aware that challenges will happen in life so that she can learn and grow. She never casts blame or judgment on someone else.

Manages Her Own Finances

She manages her finances instead of relying on someone else. She knows the more she learns the more she can keep, invest, multiply, and give endlessly. She uses her skills to make all the money she can make so she can continue to give and help others. The better she manages and grows her money, the more she can be trusted by her creator to grow and share with others.

Designs Intentional Life

She lives an intentional soul-aligned life by design. She knows what she wants in every area of her life. She aligns her desired life with her work instead of the other way around. She creates that by her thoughts, identity, beliefs, feelings, and actions.

Sets Healthy Boundaries

She sets healthy boundaries and demands respect. She has boundaries for herself as to what she’ll say yes to and what she’ll say no to in alignment with her values. She also determines how other people treat her and she has boundaries for that as well. She knows she doesn’t have to spend time around toxic people who judge her or who do not appreciate and support her. 

In conclusion, you now know that confidence can make you attractive. People feel your energy, aura, and charisma, and get intrigued, inspired, and drawn to you when you exude self-confidence. It is contagious and makes other people want to be around you with the hope of eventually modelling, emulating, and knowing how to be a confident individual like you are.

The reason confidence makes you attractive is because in most cases it equates to you having good habits and beliefs about yourself. You most likely have a good self-image, esteem, and self-assurance.  You care about yourself, and your appearance, carry yourself well and maintain a good posture.
 
You sit and stand more upright, occupy more space, talk to people while maintaining eye contact, speak with authority, and are more believable.
 
You also learnt 12 ways a confident woman is different from others.  She knows who she is, is not afraid to shine her light, knows her worth, takes 100% responsibility, takes care of herself, does not compare, is emotionally independent, responsible for her happiness, always improving, and takes care of her finances, designs her intentional life, and sets healthy boundaries.
 
I hope you found yourself to have those qualities because they’re important. It’s your life and you’re only here for a short time so live your best life and it’s up to you to do that. Good luck on your confident inside-out best life journey.

Is It Normal To Have Regrets In Life?

As we move through our life journey, we tend to have lots of regrets that cause us to judge ourselves harshly and drag them along with us like heavy baggage. We think about these regrets over and over wishing for a retake and wondering if it is normal for everyone or just us to be consumed by our regrets and feel this way.
 
Yes, it is very normal and common to experience and feel regrets in life for the majority of human beings. We all at one time or another have wished that we had done something when we had a chance or done it in a certain way or wish we had not done or said something in the past.
 
So, you may be wondering, why do we have regrets in life? let’s discuss that next.

Why Do We Have Regrets In Life?

Regret like any other emotion comes up for reason and serves a purpose in our life. Take some time to reflect and understand what your regrets are trying to tell you. You feel regret so that you can learn, grow, and heal yourself so that you can better think through future decisions and not repeat the same mistakes in life.
 
In general, regrets tell you who you are being, what you want, and how you relate to the world. If you do not take the time to understand, deal with, and heal with your regrets, they could lead to depression.
 
Let’s prevent that by finding out how to not have regrets in life.

How Not To Have Regrets In Life

Life always happens for us and teaches us lessons before it is too late.  The sooner we learn from these mistakes and course-correct, the better the chances of us living our very meaningful and fulfilling best life instead of a life full of unresolved regrets.
 
Let’s discuss some of these mistakes so that you avoid the potential regrets that could result if the lessons are not learnt.

Time Is Limited

Your time here on earth and on any given day are limited and therefore it is the most important resource. Make sure you are designing and living your best intentional life of purpose, and meaning in alignment with your soul. Spend a lot of time within self-reflection, meditating, praying, and connecting with your creator, and your loved ones instead of always overextending yourself and spending your time with people who do not matter, going to places that you do not want to be in and doing work that you do not like.
 
Do the work that you love so that you do not wish your life and days away by waiting for Fridays to come quickly and dreading Sundays in anticipation of doing work that you do not enjoy and love.

Health Is Very Important

Take care of your physical and mental health because it is very important. If you don’t have your health, nothing will matter and you will not be able to fulfill your purpose which is why you are here. You could have all the money in your bank but if you don’t have your health, you will not be able to enjoy and live your very best life.
 
Stay hydrated, sleep enough hours, exercise, eat nutritious food to fuel your body, consume positive messages, master your emotions, pray, spend time in silence, and meditate to stay connected to your created today.

Cherish Your Relationships

Cherish, value your relationships with your loved ones, and do not take them for granted. They will not be here on this earth forever. I am sure everyone one of us has lost a loved one too soon and wished that we had spent more time with them. Spend enough time with your loved ones, connect often, call, hug, kiss, tell them how you feel about them often, and keep in touch with them regularly.
 
Don’t hold grudges and learn to forgive them. End relationships that are not good for you sooner so that you do not waste precious years of your life being miserable among other long-term consequences.

Challenges Are Inevitable

Know that as long as you’re here on this earth school there will be challenges so you can learn and grow. Do not feel that challenges should have not happened the way they did. Take the time to acknowledge and learn the lessons because if you don’t then they will continue to repeat until you do learn the lessons. Remember the purpose of every human being here on this earth is to grow from life’s challenges and then to serve in a bigger and better way.

Everyone Can Be Grateful

Do not live your life questioning your choices, living in scarcity, and thinking you are lacking and are short-changed in any way. Learn to be grateful for all the things that you have been blessed with, recall as many things as possible, and show appreciation every single day. Gratitude will help you raise your energy and live as your higher, abundant, and joyful self.

Kindness Is Not Weakness

Be kind to yourself and others because that is who we are by nature. Forgive yourself and others or all the mistakes and decisions that you made in the past that did not serve you and others. We are not fear, angry, or jealousy. We are kindness, compassion, love, peace, joy and abundance. Kindness is not a weakness even though society may tell us it is. When you are being kind, you have aligned your soul, your creator, and are acting from your higher self.

Live An Authentic Life

Live your authentic life unapologetically before it is too late and your time here is done. Be the real you at all times instead of living a fake life because you are worried about being judged by others. You are exactly the way you are meant to be able to serve your purpose. 
 
People who love you will support and rally around you and will not judge.  People who judge you at times are perhaps not meant to stay in your life. You are only accountable to yourself and your creator.

Stop Comparing

Do not compare yourself and your journey to other people’s journeys and diminish your joy. You were not meant to live that way. Everybody’s here for their purpose. What someone else is portraying on social media may just be a good moment and not be their real-life majority of the time.
 
Live your journey and compare yourself to who you were being yesterday. Are you growing and are you serving that’s all that matters and so don’t worry about what everybody else is doing.

Cannot Change Others

You are not responsible for others and so cannot change them. They have to take the initiative and commitment to their self-development and growth for them to grow and change. Also, no matter how nice you are, you cannot please everyone and change their opinion about you and so do not bother trying. Stay on purpose, connect to your creator, and you will be always guided.
 
Do not worry about others’ opinions of you. As you will eventually discover that most of the time people do not care about others they are simply absorbed by their wants and life and are not thinking about you.

You Are Responsible For Your Happiness

You are 100% responsible for creating your happiness and life by design and nobody else can do that for you. Learn to master your own emotions, and know what you want out of life, your values, vision, purpose, identity, thoughts, beliefs, feelings, actions, and habits which then will create your destiny and best life. Know what makes you happy and do that often.

Do Not Aspire To Be Perfect

Never aspire to be perfect because no one is. People need and are awaiting you to do your work that you were born to do even if it is not perfect. Everyone makes mistakes, learns from them, and grows. When you grow and become better then you can serve your purpose in a bigger and better way. Never be afraid to try something new and know that it is completely okay to make mistakes.

Do Not Let Fear Stop You

Do not let fears and doubts keep you from designing and living your best purposeful, meaningful fulfilling life. It is normal for you to feel fear because your brain is built for survival and efficiency. Whenever we detect something new, our brains warn us via feeling the emotion of fear as it attempts to keep us safe.
 
You can tell whether it is a real dangerous situation or just something new and outside your comfort zone. It’s okay to feel the fear, and take action with courage and faith because your growth is outside your comfort zone.  Live your best life because you’re only here for a short time so don’t waste it.

In conclusion, you now know that it is very normal, and common to experience and feel regrets in life for the majority of us. We all at one time or another have wished that we had done something when we had a chance or done it in a certain way or wish we had not done or said something in the past.
 
Regrets like any other emotion come up for a reason and serve a purpose in our life. It helps you learn, grow, and heal so that you can better think through future decisions and not repeat the same mistakes in life. It is important to take some time for self-reflection and understand what your regrets are trying to tell you.
 
In general, they tell you who you are being, what you want and how you are relating to the world. If you do not take the time to understand, deal and heal with your regrets they could lead to depression.
 
Some ways to not have regrets in life are to know that time is limited and do not waste it, take care of your health before it is too late, cherish your relationships and treat them well before it is too late. Challenges in life are inevitable, so face them and do not feel that they should have not happened, no matter what kind of life you are living, know that you have a lot to be grateful for.
 
Being kind is not a weakness so do not regret being kind when someone is rude. Live your authentic life unapologetically without any regrets, stop comparing yourself to others and feeling bad about your life, you cannot change others, you are responsible for your happiness, you cannot be perfect because no one is, and do not let fear keep you from your very best life.

Why Is A Business Brand Important?

We are lucky to have so many choices of products, services, and locations where we can buy them (online and offline), and companies that we can buy them from today. However, we are always attracted and drawn to certain products, services and companies over others. We repeatedly look forward to buying certain brands’ latest products. Why is that? It is because we love the brand.
 
A business needs to build a brand if it wants to be successful in the market today. Branding helps with instant recognition, differentiation, and setting product or service expectations based on the company’s identity, mission and values. It also fosters trust, greater customer loyalty, higher perceived value, and better credibility, and increases the chances of attracting top talent.
 
So, you may be wondering, how do I create a brand? Let’s discuss that next.

8 Ways To Create A Magnetic Brand

One of the best brands you can create for your business is a magnetic one so that you do not have to constantly chase and fight for customers in the crowded market. People will be drawn to your business and will buy your products and services over others.  
 
Generosity is one of the best ways to have that attractive quality to your business which then puts the law of reciprocity into play for you. The more value you help and give your potential customers, the more successful your business will be and the more people will buy from you. Let’s discuss some ways that you can create a magnetic brand for yourself.

Donate A Percentage Of Profits

Start donating a percentage of business profits to one or more charities of your choice. You do not have to be a millionaire to start donating money. Make it a habit to do that at any stage of your life and business. You will have prosperity chase you and you will be able to give more money abundantly and never ever run out. You will become your creator’s trustee, be responsible to let the money flow through you to the people who need it.

Provide Relevant Value

Take some time to research and figure out what is it that your customers need, resonate with, and offer that as free value by making relevant, consistent content on your platform of choice. Engage with them by asking them questions and answering their questions. The more you get to know them, the more you will be able to cater your free content, products, and services to what they need and you will be able to serve them in a bigger and better way.

Participate In Giveaways

Participate in auctions, giveaways, and give some of your products, and services away for free. You can also make it a practice to periodically to give away your product or service for free to people who need it but cannot afford it.

Go Above And Beyond

Always deliver the promise made by your company and also strive to go above and beyond with your potential customers and customers in every interaction with you. “Wow” them and give them extra bonuses and value that they were not expecting to receive. 

For example, hand out free samples, if someone gives you their email address or when they buy from you give them an extra worksheet, audio, video, mini-course or exclusive content that you recorded just for your email list or customer and give them a better experience with your generous brand.

Collaborate With Your

Collaborate and be generous with your competition because there are more than enough customers out there for everyone. People that you are meant to serve will resonate with your message over anyone else’s. Most people, including myself, also follow, consume and buy from more than one person per topic of interest. 
 
Focus on what you do best and be willing to refer clients that you cannot serve to your competition so that everyone can be served in the way that they deserve to be. Remember you are not the only one with a particular purpose, there are several people with the same cause. How you serve them is unique to you.

Provide Excellent Customer Service

Survey, follow up, listen to your customers, and have an ongoing dialogue with them so you can serve them in the best way on an ongoing basis and not get irrelevant and forgotten as a brand. Make it a mission of every member of your company at every level to serve and always strive to provide excellent customer service.
 
Always aim to overdeliver on the promises that you make. Be transparent, apologize, own, and rectify the mistakes that were made by your company regardless of who made that mistake. Make your customers feel heard, understood, seen, accepted, and appreciated.Encourage Volunteering

Encourage Volunteering

Make volunteering part of your company culture. You can choose a day where members of a particular department volunteer at a place of choice or each person can do a certain number of hours of volunteering in a year at a place of their own choice.

Create A Giving Back Campaign

You can also create different campaigns as a business to raise funds for a charity, food, winter attire, or toy drive on a quarterly or yearly basis. Speak to different non-profit charities in your area like women’s shelters to generate ongoing ideas on specific campaigns needed for your neighbourhood.
