What Are YOU Thinking?

 "All conditions and all circumstances in our lives are the result of a certain level of thinking. When you want to change the conditions and the circumstances, we have to change the level of thinking that is responsible for it." Albert Einstein

Your thought is the most powerful tool you have for your success. That is good news. Creating your ideal life is not about having to struggle really,really hard to do more stuff to make something happen. It is about RELAXING and finding your own way that is a natural self-expression of your values and what lights you up. When you have a dream that excites you, you'll naturally get ideas of actions to take. And, when one doesn't work, you'll just try something else for the curiosity of it (rather than deciding YOU or your lack of something is the problem)!  

 So, what ARE YOU THINKING? Do you consciously monitor the thoughts you have and then choose the most empowering route? Or do you let those inner children and wicked critics rule the castle and live rent-free? Each thought you have is NOT necessarily the truth. You can choose to accept or reject each as you decide if they are appropriate and empowering.  

 COACH's TIP:   HOW TO LIGHTEN UP AND RELAX
If you find yourself struggling today or tomorrow, take these steps:

  1. Take a look at the thought you have that is causing the struggle.
  2. Examine if that thought is grounded or ungrounded. i.e. Is there evidence that you will really end up homeless if you don't sell a house to these buyers or is that just one possible outcome?
  3. Make up 3 or 4 other possible outcomes
  4. Let go of your initial belief.
  5. Choose a belief that makes you feel lighter, more empowered.

Great blog! This is a perfect blog with so many realtors struggling in this market. I was taught when I started real estate not to ever get down to one transaction in title. That really puts the stress on but it also motivates you to keep trying. There are a number of time that I do have reason things out and I have taught my two daughters to do the same with this business. (We are a team) I always ask my self: "What is the worse thing that can happen?" Then I give myself at lease two scenerios of possible outcome. It works!

Very timely.  I feel great today, but yesterday, I was ready to jump off of a bridge.  This is my real estate year to do everything twice!  Thanks for the pick-me-up.

In the last year I've really tried to change my way of thinking and go away from the negative. If I find myself thinking negative, I immediately stop what I am doing and find something I enjoy that makes me happy do it and then come back to do what I have to and make sure those negative thoughts don't come back!
