Think of something you are creating for a moment.
🌹Writing a book
🌹Starting a business
🌹Creating a new self care routine
I consider all of these things to be creative projects.
💥 Creating is powerful.
So when you approach YOUR chosen creation, maybe it feels like you are in charge.
🌈 You are holding the paintbrush of your life and coloring everything in the way you like it, right?
Maybe…
🔮 A lot of people believe they are in charge of creating, and it can be really enjoyable.
But for me there is more to the story.
👉👉🏽👉🏼 LIFE IS A COLLABORATIVE PROCESS.
It’s about:
🌹 Giving and receiving.
🌹🌹 Surrendering and taking control.
🌹🌹🌹 Doing some hard things AND some easy things.
BALANCE.
I use what I am about to tell you to make progress with everything I create–my books, my business, my life, my relationships–but let me just pick one thing to illuminate my point.
For example, one business lesson I learned the hard way is that my business has its own plan for how it wants to exist and grow.
And when I don’t understand what my business is saying, I can lose an opportunity.
But when I do understand…💸💸💸🔮
My business is not just my creation, it has it’s own energy and it’s own design.
For best results I have to listen and work with that design.
It holds an energetic design of what it wants to become even when it is not physically formed yet.
I have to honor that I’m not working with a blank slate–I need to work with the blueprint that is already there.
You wouldn’t take a daisy and expect it to become as high as a tree, right?
But I assumed that when I create something, I can make it into just about anything.
Now I think that’s wrong.
💥 Creations often have an energy of their own, with their own design and intention–I have to collaborate with it if I want to be successful.
🔮 I’ve come to understand that this is a basic principle that can be applied to all creations.
I feel this potential bubbling when I work with clients on their book, business, nonprofit, or other creative passion.
It also applies to everything you do in your life:
👉👉🏽👉🏼 Some things want to happen NOW and other things want to pop later.
🌈 It’s extremely handy to be tuned into this as a multi-passionate creator, because then you always know what to do next.
💥 Just know that you can’t just FORCE things to be what you want–sometimes you have to listen and go with the flow.
And today I want to share how I apply this knowledge and what is going on with my creations now!
APPLYING THE THEORY
So are you thinking, “How do I apply this?” Let’s take my life as an example!
Step one: Find your Achilles heel.
💖 First, let’s review what the default pattern is. This is always helpful to see where you tend to ignore signs.
💥 Me? I’m a speed-demon in recovery.
When I was a kid I would walk so fast you would think I was running through the hallways just for the joy of getting to my class faster so I could read for a few minutes.
When it comes to creating, writing and living my life I still have that speed demon urge.
💖 Step Two: Assess where you are and what you want.
See what you want to create and what is in the way.
- I’ve traveled the globe in the last few months and finally gotten my first permanent residence in 3.5 years.
- I’ve heavily invested in my Blood Witch fiction series that I am writing.
- As soon as Book 1 is out, I can earn money back from it. YAY! I want this ASAP.
- I can also make money with my business and am planning to sell something new soon.
💖 Step Three: Note what’s in the way.
- Long story short, Book 1 has been slowed down because I had to do other things for books 2 and 3.
- My editor wants Book 2 by the end of the month but I have to figure out all the revisions for Book 1 to make sure Book 2 is correct…
- I also want my business to grow by enrolling new clients and launching my 7 Week Psychic Mermaid Course.
- Marketing is a lot of work and trying to grow my business will probably take over my life.
💖 Step Four: Notice the shift of external events and how they make you feel.
- I’ve had bad internet for weeks and couldn’t do a ton with my business.
- I used that time to get on a roll writing my books, though, so I have momentum now.
- Business coaches of mine are teaching marketing at the end of the month. I want to hear their thoughts before putting out my course.
- My writing mentor is out for a few weeks so I can stop working on outlining book 3. I can work on Book 1 and 2 without distraction.
- Some client work is slowing down so I have less on my plate to edit for her.
- My editor wants my second book at the end of the month.
- I’m actually kind of okay with making less income right now in the short-term so I can focusing on the books as a long-term investment.
💖 Step Five: Communicate with your projects by journaling with them or doing energy work.
These days, it doesn’t take me long to get on the wavelength because it is a regular practice for me.
I don’t really need to “do” much, it’s an inner shift.
For now I’ll just say–I have communed with my book and business and I have a pretty good sense of what’s going on here.
🔮 The details of how to get intuitive messages about what to do next on your creations will be taught in my upcoming Psychic Mermaid 7 Week Course. If you want the nitty gritty, shoot me a reply to get on the waitlist.
💖 Step Six: Make your conclusion and set your intention, even if it is different than your original plan.
Things are shifting in the universe and I sense an opportunity to catch the winds coming my way.
This is a set up for some sweet, sweet gliding.
💥 The books want my focus!!!!
So the Psychic Mermaid 7 Week course launch is now postponed a little bit longer.
So I can work on these books:
<Sign up here for few sneak peaks of the books! >
🌹 Note: this is a big change.
My original goal was that now that I’ve moved into a permanent home, I’d rush right into the promotion of my course for entrepreneurs, writers and creators on the energetic secrets to inspiration, clarity and momentum.
🌹 But lately I have been getting a different message.
All these things are coming off my plate for a reason.
🔮 Plus, something about being anchored makes it a little easier to hear my intuition, since there is not as much chaos.
I’ve gotten really used to chaos. It’s been a chaos for a long time.
💥 Continuing with my original plan would speed-demon fueled chaos.
But, lol, as they say, “Not today, satan!”
I know my patterns and I have my eye out for them.
😌 Because it turns out the spirit of my business and my new course really aren’t in that much of a hurry.
They want me to take the time to do it the right way and not just throw it out into the world.
🌹 Nestle it into the world.
🌹 Enjoy the dance of it all.
🌹 Do things in the order that feels more peaceful.
And I’m reluctantly deciding that they are right.
It’s a hell of a stretch for me to slow down sometimes, but The Psychic Mermaid Course will not be opening in May, and perhaps not even in June.
I’m eager to get it out there ASAP but we will see what ends up getting created, when.
Stay tuned for updates! (You can also reply to this email to get the news first.)
🌹 So in sum, my intention is that for the remainder of May, I am taking a step back from other things, and setting my focus on revising Book 1 and 2 of the Blood Witch Series.
It’s the opposite of my plans and honestly it feels hella indulgent.
🔮 But when I start listening to the things I am creating…that is when the magic really happens.
I hope this example is inspiration for you to listen to the things you are creating: your book, business, nonprofit, or other passionate creative babies!
Now it’s time for you to reflect:
What you are creating right now? Have you been taking any twists and turns?
🌹 Remember: LIFE IS A COLLABORATIVE PROCESS.
You have to work with the things you are creating! And listen to their guidance, not just do it your way.
