Are there any areas in your life that you are limiting yourself? Be totally honest.  In your career, is there something you would just LOVE to be doing, but have no idea how to make it happen? Or maybe you feel intimidated to even try? What if you knew that your new venture or challenge would be a sure thing. You would go for it. Wouldn’t you?

In your relationship, have you settled in your choices because you’re afraid you might not find anyone better? Do you stay in your current relationship because of fear?

There are 3 key barriers that tend to hold people back from venturing out into the wild blue yonder.

Fear. Fear of failure, fear of success, fear of being judged, fear of the unknown, fear of loss of security, fear of not enjoying your choices…I could go on.

Disconnection from Passion. You know that feeling. The one that fills you up with bubbles of excitement and satisfaction. Often hard to get there when you have felt stuck, held back, trapped for some time.

Lack of direction. You may not be afraid. You may know exactly what you want to do. But you have no idea how to make it happen. This is not an uncommon scenario.

Can you relate? I want to hear from you….tell me your stories.

What if you had a book that helped you solve the mystery to all three barriers? I know where you would be right now.

Comment away!

So I set a more realistic goal for myself and wrote for an entire year. Did you know that if you write only one page per day, you can finish an entire book in one year. If you think about the gargantuan process of writing an entire novel or non-fiction book, it can seem overwhelming. But when you break it down in small increments like I did, it is very doable.

I spent time in my practice during the day, and wrote a bit each evening and weekend. Starting the first page was the hardest part, but once I was able to get into the mental zone of writing, the hardest part was stopping the creative flow to go to eat or sleep! It was a very intense time for me. As I was writing for hours, it felt like my hands had taken a life of their own. It was as if information was flowing out of me that I had know idea existed. The entire process was completely cathartic and enlivening.

If you have experienced anything like this than you may relate. You begin to have a love affair with your creative process. Whether your are building a house, painting a portrait, or writing a book, you are part of the birthing process and creating new life.  Your goal is to complete your vision. However, the most meaningful part is the development of your vision. Once it is complete, you feel an amazing sense of satisfaction. But then you have to close the book and say goodbye.

Please send me any comments or questions you may have.

Stop for a moment and ask yourself these three powerful questions.

★At this very moment, are you who you want to be?

★★Is your daily life full of things you want to do?

★★Are you attaining the goals and fulfillment that you  want to have?

If you can answer “Yes” to each question, congratulations! You have either inherited or designed a life process that is working for you. In your case, the Blast Off! principles will only enhance your already satisfying journey. On the other hand, if you’ve answered “No” to any or all of these queries, let me ask you one more very important question…

Do you want to be at the same place you are now, with the same frustration, the same struggles, and the same complaints, one year from now or even ten years from now?

If the thought of being at this same juncture of your path, personally, professionally, emotionally and spiritually, ten years from now does not light a raging fire underneath your feet for moving toward transformation, then your fear of changing must be greater than your desire for it. If this is your story but you’re still game, the Blast Off! Program can help you push past your fear and enter a more exciting state. And if your fire has been ignited, let’s work together to infuse your life with the magic, joy, love and prosperity that you so deserve.

Fifteen years ago, I asked myself that same question, “How would I feel about being in the same place ten years from now?”

Honestly, the thought of remaining stuck and frustrated with no movement forward on my life path made me nauseous. I had spent so much time fighting for what I wanted in relationships and in my career that I didn’t know what else could be done. All I knew for sure was that the combination of a passionless relationship and a career without meaning was absolutely killing me. Let me clarify … it wasn’t actually the relationship or my career that was killing me when I needed to change. It was the negative, tainted energy I owned around those two areas of my life, and the manner in which I chose to expend my energy toward them. The fact is that I was completely responsible for creating my own misery. No one else. I made the choice to be in that relationship.I chose the career. And I also chose to allow them both to affect me in a negative way. Hearing myself complain and wallow in my own anger, sadness and stuckness was draining and, in the end, only bred more anger, sadness and stuckness.

The way I saw it, I had two choices:

1. Either I needed to accept my circumstances while making the best of them (which was not an option)…

2. Or I had to make a change (which is what my soul was crying out for me to do).
