LEAD WITH YOU FIRST...
Christine Williams
Hey sweet sister, let's talk about Leadership and how owning your power will not only help you create more cash and abundance in your business, but it will also empower others as you model stepping into your dreams and shine your brilliance out in the world.
I love paradigms. As a matter of fact, I have 12 empowered leadership paradigms that my clients take on inside my Activate Abundance Academy.
Paradigms are not just affirmations. They are a way of BE-ING and how you choose to see the world. As you know, in the quantum world, your beliefs create your feelings, and your feelings are the attractors that call in abundance to you. Your feelings create action, inaction, or reaction, leading to your results. Yes- there is a DOING in order to create. But that doing comes from a belief and the way of BEING you decide to take on.
One of the 12 is "Leaders take 100% responsibility 100% of the time, without blame or guilt."
This is my personal favorite paradigm because it puts all the power and control for outcomes for what I desire in my hands and is not dependent on anyone else or any other "circumstance."
Generating any result you desire in your life, or your business requires taking 100% responsibility for those results. It requires becoming the owner of your life and taking a deep look at where you might be outsourcing the responsibility for your results and either giving away your power or being in "victim" mode.
Our critter brains are masterful at conjuring up excuses, laying blame and judgment on ourselves and others to keep us safe and in the comfort zone.
But as empowered leaders, we know that letting go of blame, guilt, complaining and excuses are the place where we truly connect to our power. Amazing things happen when we consciously STOP fighting for our limitations, stop looking for what's wrong and instead shift into abundance and possibilities that are ALL around us.
Let's look at where we might be operating, creating your current results. Take a look below at the Critter brain and circle all the ones you can see yourself saying to yourself.
Critter Brain (Victim Mindset)
• Believes life is happening to me Views failure as evidence of being "not enough"
• Makes decisions by imagining the worst-case scenario and choosing based on the least amount of risk
• Thinks "I should" or "I have to" focuses on the problem
• Believes in scarcity and lack
• Believes others have the power to hurt me
• Believes that our circumstances create how we feel.
• Believes that results are created by strategy and action alone
• Believes that time creates money (hours for dollars model)
• Compares self to others and believes "I'm not enough."
• Sets prices too low and has a hard time charging for the value they provide.
• Wants to "get through" an experience
Blames, complains and makes excuses for results
HIGHER SELF (Ownership Mindset)
• Believes life is happening FOR me, even if things are not going as planned.
• Sees failure as a natural part of the learning process and embraces it as forward motion and an opportunity for growth.
• Makes decisions by imagining BEST possible outcome, and makes decisions quickly and powerfully believing whatever decision is made, she will make it right.
• Thinks "I get to" and focuses on the solutions
• Believes in abundance and the whole bakery as available for everyone, not just a piece of the pie.
• Knows that our most dominant thoughts and beliefs are what determine how we feel, not people or circumstances.
• Knows that our results will always align with our dominant thoughts and beliefs that we think 51% of the time.
• Believes that generating VALUE is what creates money
• Chooses to create partnerships that attract clients by serving generously
• Believes" I am inherently worthy" of all desires without needing to prove enoughness. I am enough already.
• Trusts that their ideal clients will gladly exchange money for the value received
• Asks, "How can I make this experience a 10?"
• Takes 100% responsibility for results without blaming others or guilting herself.
You get to CHOOSE what you focus on, so decide here and now that you will start rewiring the critter brain with possibilities instead of lack, blame and excuses.
Let's now take a look at what has been holding you back from creating what you desire in your business.
List out the reasons you haven't yet achieved the results you desire. Don't filter, just be honest about what's currently happening.
MONEY Goal :
What's slowing you down from the results you desire?
Now, let's separate the facts from the story. The facts could be proven true in a court of law, and they are completely neutral, although they may not feel that way to you.
The story you tell about the facts refers to your thoughts and feelings about the facts. Circle JUST the Facts above about what is slowing you down from the results you desire.
Then underline the parts of the story that are excuses, complaining, judging or fighting for your limitations.
It's not easy to look at where we may be playing the victim and haven't taken full responsibility, but it's incredibly powerful. For each desire you have- YOU have 100% the power to create it. As a matter of fact, YOU are the only person who can.
Getting there means giving up blame, excuses and complaining and taking complete ownership of your results.
Your results will always be in direct alignment with how you're thinking about yourself, others and the circumstances.
To shift and recalibrate our thoughts, beliefs and results to abundance, we need to get clear here.
When we blame others, judge ourselves, or complain about our circumstances, we block the flow of abundance because our focus is locked on lack and scarcity.
When we shift our focus to owning our results and our responsibility, we shift back into alignment with coming up with the solution.
We are in a place to powerfully co-create with the universe and to receive.
Write down 5 empowering beliefs that you can think as an empowered feminine leader who creates money easily.
Some examples are: I can totally figure this out. Money comes to me exactly when I need it. trust that there will always be enough. I can do things that feel challenging I am a powerful creator
The answer is in the room; I just haven't seen it YET. I can choose how I want to feel by choosing my thoughts and what I focus on Abundance is everywhere, and it's on its way to me.
Let's now CHOOSE your STATE of BE-ING, so the action you take is inspired and aligned.
I AM......
Let’s now set your money goal for her next 30 days is $________________

Now that we are in alignment with abundance and have let go of scarcity, we must take aligned action. Belief without action is actually UNBELIEF.

If any roadblock gets in the way, I will RE-ALIGN to my most powerful version, and remember that I am 100% responsible for my results and just take the next right step.

To your ultimate wealth, joy and abundance,
Chris
