Are you Breathing Life into your new possibility?

My recent post on Raeven Western's "PushyDreamers". 

******************************

Please note that I don’t mince my words, its not about being nice, but its about impact.  It’s about “pushing” beyond your fears.  If you are truly a believer in “Pushy Dreamers”, my style of writing is right up your ally because I am pushing you to take responsibility for who you are being – so read on…..

Some of us are at that point in our lives where we are questioning the jobs and careers that we are currently in.  Some of us are dreading waking up on Mondays to go to work (for a whoooole week); some of us are pissed that we aren’t making enough money; and some of us are just bored out of our minds at our current job, feeling as though our strengths are not being utilized to its full potential.

I challenge you to consider a few things:

1st – YOU created the current situation that you are living.  YOU actually created the possibility of being at the very job that you are at!

Let me refresh your memory….Remember, a few weeks ago, a few months ago, or even a few years ago, you were feeling like the job you were in was not the right match for you? You were miserable, unhappy, and unfocused. You even brought your family and friends into it by sharing with them how unhappy you were.  Do you remember?

During many of those conversations you swore to all that you were committed to getting another job that you felt would be a better fit – as soon as possible.  Well guess what, that’s the very job you are in now! Yup…mmm hmm…that’s the job YOU created. So why the pissed off face? Why the hateful words? Why the rudeness to your co-workers?

Oh I certainly understand why, because you want a change.  And this is fine. But you must first give thanks for what you created (your current job), and only thanks.  Then you can create a new possibility around the type of job you want next.  I mean you already see how powerful you are with creating what you want.  This time you can get even more specific.  Get fun with it.  Think it.  Speak it. And act as though it already exists. Take on the characteristics of a person that would be in that position right now. Give thanks for the new position (because you already have simply by speaking it and following it with actions).  However, note that the easiest way to kill your new possibility, is to avoid giving thanks to your previous one.

So are you breathing life into your new possibility, or sucking life out of it?

I’m here for you if you ever want to explore further.

In love,

Akua aka “The Activator”

My purpose is to Activate YOU to operate at your fullest potential, void of all fears, stories and excuses. I am the founder of the Gye Nyame Empowerment Project.

When you show up it makes a world of difference. People are depending on you. YOU do have an IMPACT on how things turn out. You saying something has an impact. You being silent has an impact. You doing the work has an impact. You not doing the work has an impact.

Whether you choose to acknowledge that you have an impact on the things around you, you are impacting the things around you. Since that’s the case, you mine as well suit up, play hard, and aim for the impact that you actually intend to have, not one that is prescribed to you.

What impact do YOU want to have on the world? What will be your contribution?

I will contribute to the transformation of non-profits as we know it. I will contribute to the transformation of communities as we know it. I will contribute to the transformation of families as you know it. I will contribute to the transformation of individuals as you know it. I will be transformation. I will be laughter. I will be joy. I will be peace. I will be love.

Who will you show up as today?

Should'ves/Could'ves

Today's Daily Lesson: the should'ves and could'ves don't matter because they didn't happen. What matters is your reality - the experiences you actually did have today. Give thanks to that.


I find that when you actually focus on the things that did happen today, it doesn't allow you to have any time to focus and dwell on the things that should've happened today, or could've happened today. Why does it matter any way? I mean really, if "family member X" was supposed to do something for you today, and didn't, yet "friend Y" wanted to hang out and do something for you today, why would you focus on family member X and exert negative energy onto someone who actually "is here"..."right now"? 


It is important to check ourselves when we interact with people because our relationships are our core fabric, our mere existence. They give us an opportunity to express who we truly are or who we see ourselves to be.


Give Thanks!

Transformation

I knew I was transformed when I realized that there is nothing wrong with me, and there is nowhere that I need to be other than right here, right now.  When I realized that I don’t need to “find” myself because I’ve been here all along.  When I started to understand that the only thing I need to focus on is the present, this moment right now, and not the past nor the future. When I began to understand that language matters and it shapes our realities every second of our day.  When I started to take full responsibility for my reality.  When I began to breathe.  That was the moment I knew I was transformed.

I now stand before you as a transformed being, speaking from an empowered place, ready to assist in anyone’s transformation.
