Do you ever wonder why sometimes you can’t make things happen? No matter how confident you are, you find yourself going in circles, back at the starting line, or balancing to try and keep dreams alive? Why do talented women struggle unnecessarily?
Most of my clients seek help after years of working hard and juggling everything. Yet, they find themselves lacking enthusiasm, disillusioned, burned out and stuck at their current level. They may have lost sight of their big goals and how to use their personal greatness to achieve them. Or, they may have big goals and plans but can’t quite get there. They see their personal vision way off in the future and feel frustration because they can’t seem to connect the dots to get there.
It doesn’t matter how successful they are, what type of job they have, if they own a business, or whether they’re a mother or not. They have ALL struggled and worked against themselves, not living in their full power until these SIX key principles are present:
1) You must have a vision – A clearly defined, written description of what you want your future to hold. It must include your values, where you can offer service and incorporate what makes you special – the gifts and talents you bring to this world. It must also consider the legacy you wish to leave behind. Where will you make your mark? Or will you be just a task-doer?
2) You must take intelligent risks – This means a willingness to change your unhealthy, restrictive thinking and resulting behaviors that hold you back. This requires courage to self-evaluate, take responsibility and make commitments. Then, follow-through is necessary as action steps ultimately lead to change.
3) You must get out of the passenger seat and into the driver’s seat of your life, by creating strategic action plans. Your plan needs specific, measurable goals that target your vision and keeps you on your journey to success. You can’t hit a target you can’t see. So everyday you need to consider: are your actions taking you closer to, or away from, your vision of success? And recognize and celebrate your successes all along – not just when you arrive! Remember the simple rule, what gets rewarded gets done!
4) You must do things to keep your level of confidence high! This will increase your believability and help you claim what you want and deserve. How much confidence we have is represented by how we act on the outside, in essence how we show up. What minimizes our confidence is internal success barriers, what I call confidence blockers. If any of these are present, they’ll limit your ability to trust yourself and you’ll be less likely to stretch out of your comfort zone and reach for your vision of success.
5) You must understand the qualities of a confident woman – As you see your vision take form, you’ll have an increased feeling of being in control. You’ll need to pay attention to how the qualities of growing confidence are working for or against you. For example, a quality of a confident woman is that she is persistent –she stays on her path to success despite any obstacles, doubts or challenges. However, if this quality begins to work against her, she may be unwilling to shift, may feel indignant and may be unable to make the adjustments necessary to succeed at a faster pace. When you understand the qualities of a confident woman, you can pinpoint exactly what is working or not, fine-tune and make the strategies work in your life.
6) You must go to the edge in what you believe in and become an empowered leader in your life! You can’t have sustainable passion to see your vision through or empower and inspire others in your charge if you don’t know what you believe in, or can’t communicate it clearly to others. This requires finding your voice and value, so that you can inspire changes in your life and lead those changes to the finish line.
I love to have conversations such as this after empowered women have mastered the six key principles: “This is too amazing, I feel like a new person! I feel calmer, less negative chatter; I’ve stopped beating myself up, and am much more present in my life. I feel in control again and have my confidence back. I didn’t realize how much I was limiting my power to be successful. This was exactly what I needed. Thank you René!”
How do you stop struggling and fully utilize your talents? This takes knowing how to tap into your personal power zone! The power zone is where your personal greatness and core-driving energy resides. The place all success comes from.
When you are leading your life from your power zone you won’t spend time trying to get back to the powerful you! As a result, you’ll be able to overcome any obstacle, fear or doubt you may face and take your life to a higher level of happiness and success. You’ll experience such relief and joy!
Become the change factor in your life!
