It Isn't About How, It's About Knowing What And Taking Action

It Isn't About How, It's About Knowing What And Taking Action

Many times, we can get caught up in the how of what we are going to do. I believe that knowing the how isn't our job. Our job is to know what we want and then take action. Once we have clarity around what we want and then begin to move forward, the how will begin to reveal itself. When we decide what we want and begin to act, the universe will conspire with us to create what it is we want. Things that seem to be coincidences or even miracles begin to happen.

When I decided I wanted to create a CD, I had no idea how to put it together. In a casual conversation with another coach, she mentioned that she had just created a CD. I asked her how she had gone about doing that and the next thing I knew she laid the entire process out for me including the contacts I needed. It was just a few days from the time I decided what I wanted until the time the right contacts showed up. I also had a situation where I needed someone to help me create a life map, but I had no idea how to get the idea of the map out of my head and onto paper. I literally said out loud, "Can you please help me, I need someone to help me." Within fifteen minutes, my telephone rang and on the other end was a graphic artist I knew. She was making cold calls and asked me if I needed any graphic design work. I asked her if she knew how to do maps. She did and in three weeks I had my map.

Coaching

Don't get caught up on the how. The how will reveal itself when you are clear on the what and take action. Amazingly enough, what action you take isn't as important as simply taking the action. The action is a sign that you are committed to creating this in your life, and the universe will send you what you need. Remember the adage, "Be careful what you ask for because you likely will get it." Take time to become clear on what you really want and then move forward in faith that you will indeed be supported in obtaining that which you desire.

Coaching Question

Are you clear on what you want and ready to take action?

Coaching Challenge

What is one thing you want? Can you take action on it this week? Don't worry about the how. Simply take one action this week on what you want, and see what happens. Once you begin to stir the ethers, you might be surprise what manifests.

Daily Success Formula

Knowing what + Taking Action = Discovering the How
