"Once you make a decision, the universe conspires to make it happen.
— Ralph Waldo Emerson
Are you creating your own best life?
If you are an ambitious, courageous creative person who has worked for years and so far, your efforts have not led to the dream you held for yourself, then I hear you.
I know it is not easy striving for your best while juggling competing commitments. Your personal spark of inner creativity might have been lost while you kept the wheels of industry turning. The juggle, the uncertainty, the striving to overcoming a lack of self-belief and fear of not being enough can leave you frustrated.
Deep down many of us are afraid that our life will pass and it will not have mattered.
There is part of you that knows you are amazing. You wish to have your dream career and family; Authentic expression and great financial rewards. You have a raging desire to live to your fullest potential, to express your inner genius; To live with courage and be the thunder and lightning that inspires the world.
BUT the reality is that you are not there yet. And that can be painful.
But it doesn’t have to be this way. Maybe there are areas where you still need to grow. Or maybe it is the people around you. It is not clear yet. But for us to get the life we truly desire, we must learn what it takes to go from being held back by our fears and doubts, by our limited self-image and beliefs about what is possible, to becoming extraordinary.
This is possible for us all, and especially for you.
I would love to see you live the life you desire; for you to be the person who is not only recognised for your efforts, but also rewarded in a way that changes your reality forever.
I know this is possible for you because I help ambitious creatives use their talents to craft a joyful, fulfilling life, empowering them to become leaders and authors of their own lives, and I have seen it unfold, time and again.
All too often I see creative people using all the talents and skills on making things, on focusing on their job, their career their next project, but forget about the most important aspect of success, which is themselves.
The beautiful truth is that when you are happier, healthier, living a life aligned to your values, doing what feels great and speaking your truth – you not only feel better, you also do better. Paradoxically, living authentically and staying true to what matters to you most creates both more external success and internal fulfilment.
How is all this possible?
Firstly, it is a journey and I propose that it starts with you opening to the idea of being just as creative and strategic with your own life as you are with your projects.
Since you sit in the centre of your career, your creative business and your creative project – YOU are the best place to start to give yourself a shot at success.
BUT – for too many of us, YOU are your own worst enemy, and all too often YOU come last when it comes to allocating resources of time, money, and especially love.
The decisions you make and the way you treat yourself will determine whether you succeed long-term, and if you do, whether you thrive and prosper, burn out and collapse, or never even know you have arrived at ‘success’.
Life ‘success’ is a journey that starts with deciding what it means to you. There are so many paths you could take, and fundamentals for you to embrace, things like-
· Identify your own self-sabotage and take steps to uncover their root fears
· Self-advocate more; self-abandon less
· Be curious. Be brave. Be Authentic
· Embrace connection and know you are not alone
· Build your resilience, grit and embrace uncertainty
You are creative.
You are a dreaming, imagining being. You have the power to create through imagination, thought, intention, strategy and aligned action.
The best decision you will ever make is to decide to turn your innate creativity into a tool for a great life.
You can, right here, right now, decide to use your inner genius, your spark, your inspiration your authentic expression, to create a life that deeply matters to you, and feels exactly as you would love it to feel.
Are you creating your own best life?
