Before you read another word... pause and take a deep
breath. This is how you begin to trust your vibes in business. Simple?
Yes. Effective? Yes. But, how can a simple breath help you trust your
vibes? That's what I'll be sharing with you here in this article,
because in order to succeed as a conscious entrepreneur you've got to
become an expert at trusting (and listening) to your vibes.
One
thing I continue to hear from entrepreneurs is they are so busy working
on projects, taking care of clients, marketing their business, etc.
that they barely have time to eat, sleep and BREATHE... forget about
creating time to meditate, or journal. I have news for you. It's
impossible to trust your vibes in business, when you are completely
disconnected from yourself because you "go, go, go" all the time.
I'll
assume that you'd like to learn how to not only trust, but hear your
vibes (your inner wisdom) more clearly. So, I'm going to share how I do
this in my own life, in hopes it will help you, too.
Step 1: Breathe
Give
yourself the gift of deep, conscious breath. If you are holding your
breath, or completely unaware of it throughout your day, it's a sure
sign you are disconnected from Source, and your "vibes" won't have any
space to enter.
Step 2: Realize
You are a Spiritual Being
Next, in order to connect, listen to and act on your vibes you've got
to embrace the truth that you are a Spiritual being, above and beyond
anything else. In this understanding, you realize that you are never
the one "in control"... rather you are an instrument being used to
fulfill Divine Destiny on earth. In this experience of surrender, you
become more conscious of what is truly unfolding in front of you.
Step 3: Become Still
In
a world of ever increasing speed and activity, it's nearly impossible
to hear (or trust) your vibes when you are operating at the "speed of
life." You must become still. You must allow your mind to become quiet
so your heart can be heard. When I talk about stillness, I don't mean
sitting down to watch TV, eat dinner, sip tea or anything else. What
I'm talking about here is sitting down with your eyes closed for at
least 10 minutes a day... without moving a finger. When you bring your
physical body into stillness, it allows your mind and heart to open to
what is present beyond your physical experience of life. And, this is
where you can begin to sense your "vibes."
Step 4: Do Only That Which Brings You Joy
A
simple concept, but challenging to do when the phone is ringing, email
is piling up and projects are behind deadline. (I understand... I
experience these feelings myself sometimes.) But, the concept of living
in JOY and the reality that this is actually your NATURAL state of
BEING is at the essence of journeying through life trusting your vibes.
You are not meant to struggle, or work hard doing something that
doesn't thrill you. Your Divine nature is to experience joy, so begin
to look for those things that bring you joy. And, pursue those avenues.
Following your joy is a great way to trust your vibes. Joy will never
steer you down the wrong road.
I could write an entire book on
this topic (perhaps I will some day), but for now I wanted to give you
these four easy steps to begin with. Trusting your vibes is a key
element to succeeding in the new model for conscious business success.
So, set aside some time for yourself today to breathe, be still, and...
follow your joy.
