Have you got a dream list?  Is it filled with big, radical things you’d love to accomplish one day?

How rewarding would it be to stop saying, “I’d like to…”  or “it would be nice if…” or “One day when…”

And instead you can say, “It is done.  It is accomplished.”

And I don’t mean manifesting from the realms of ego.  It’s not about getting stuff or having things or proving anything or achieving for the achievement’s sake.

It’s about creating a life and manifesting results that are direct extensions of your spirit – of who you are and the unique gifts you have to offer the world.

It’s about living with prosperity consciousness.

Here are 3 things that will support you in moving from “I’d like to…” to “It is done.”

Certainty – Remember a specific time when you felt totally resolved, certain and in a state of total knowingness, that no matter what, you would find a way.  Let that feeling of certainty flow through your whole body, and fill every cell in your being with certainty.

Intensity - When you become laser-focused on your vision, you magnify your materializing power.  Turn up the heat, get inspired, and make your vision juicy!

Detachment – Once you’re clear on your intention, let it go!  Release it in full faith, knowing it is done.

What’s the difference between a goal that you’ve achieved, and a goal you set but that didn’t come to pass?

What are some simple steps you can take to ensure that when you create goals, you know with certainty you will achieve them?

Now, before I explain HOW to materialize goals, what are some of the reasons why someone might set a goal and NOT achieve it?  Here are just a few of the reasons that people fall short or quit on their dreams and goals:

• A part of them doubts it, doesn’t believe it, or thinks they don’t deserve it
• The goal isn’t clear or concise – it has too many moving parts or stipulations
• They feel like they HAVE to do it – they lack the JUICE & VERVE to attain it
• The goal is TOO specific – it seems impossible or unbelievable
• They micromanage their goal, without trusting their creative power or the power of the Universe to BRING IT
• They haven’t created the LIFE CONDITIONS for the goal to materialize
• They can’t see it, feel it, hear it – it isn’t real or compelling for them

How awesome would it be to have a simple and powerful system to not only CREATE goals, but also ATTAIN them (or even better!) – every single time???  There is a science to materialization.  This is not just philosophy.

Here are eight steps I’ve found are ESSENTIAL to materialize your grandest goals:

1. Recognize and transmute old doubt, worry, fear, self-sabotage or uncertainty that held you back in the past.

2. Create clear, concise, congruent and compelling goals, inspired by your deepest values.

3. Harness and purposefully direct your creative life force to fuel and energize your goals and generate heat and momentum toward their rapid (or instant!) materialization.

4. Design and practice specific rituals to invite sacred intention and Divine guidance to support you in realizing your goals.

5. Invoke states of total certainty and centered power within you so that you take the essential actions in alignment with your highest self.

6. Release your goals with full faith and gratitude knowing that it is already done.

7. Be completely open and receptive to the infinite possibilities and full materialization of your goals – which often emerges even grander than you could ever imagine.

But those are just seven steps, you say?  What’s the eighth?

It’s coming together with a supportive community who will encourage, inspire and nurture you and your vision.

Remember…

One person’s awakening elevates the consciousness of the planet — YOU are the one!

When two people are equally set on their intention, the strongest, most influential person in any interaction is the one who is most flexible.  In sales, this means that you must change your approach until you find an approach that works.  We teach that there are no inflexible people, only a need for more flexible communicators.

If your intention is to win people to your point of view, it helps to first acknowledge their perspective.  An insightful quote from A Course in Miracles states, “If I defend, I am attacked.”  Observe another person’s perception, and meet them at their level of thinking.  It is often much easier to move someone into action and expand their previous thinking if you can relate to them as an ally.

Think of the way trees bend in the wind.  They are able to survive harsh gusts because of their flexible natures.  Like those cartoons where the hero contorts his body to avoid attack or to enter forbidden places, we can use our flexible communication to transcend objections and align with our clients’ perspectives.

Water has no definite form.  Its flexibility allows it to pass gracefully over, under, around, and through obstacles.  Rivers run to the sea because the water is so persistent and focused in its intention to reach its destination, and yet completely flexible along the path.  In sales, it helps to be like water: maintain a definite objective, and hold to your intention; yet realize that many paths can lead to its attainment.

When you are flexible, objections are no longer obstacles.  They are fun mental challenges for which you can find an empowering solution for all.

Greetings & Blessings from the land of 1,000 Temples!  I am so blessed to be in Bali enjoying a sacred retreat, creative sabbatical, and a time of healing and rejuvenation after a period of great intensity in my life.

You may already know that a few months ago, I broke my leg.  It was the most physically painful experience I’d ever had, and looking back, also perhaps one of the most profound.

Have you ever had an experience like that?  Looking back, you say, “I would never be where I am today or who I am today were it not for that one thing,” but at the time, that “thing” was one of the most painful or challenging experience imaginable.

Sometimes life brings lessons disguised as seeming madness.  These moments cause us to go deep within and really connect with our true essence.

So what do you do to maintain your balance in those moments? I’ll share with you one practice that has been miraculous for me. It’s been so healing that I’m considering creating a CD all about it, and in a moment, I’ll ask you for your thoughts!

Over the past few months, one discipline that has supported me in remaining in my center while gracefully moving through challenge is the practice of Mantra.  Since I’ve come to Bali, I’ve been practicing a few specific mantras consistently and I have experienced great inspiration, renewed energy and deep peace.  And because it’s been so powerful and healing for me, I thought you might love to experience some of the profound benefits of mantra, too.

Ancient Sanskrit mantras have been chanted, spoken and sung for thousands of years.  These mantras are imbued with a certain energetic frequency, and thus have the power to shift your internal experience when you repeat them with sincerity.  For example, the mantra “OM” (or “AUM”) is powerful to center yourself.  As you chant “OM”, remember to honor the space between the “OM’s.”

What practices do you have to support you in integrating valuable life lessons while consciously and gracefully moving through the most challenging moments of your life?  I’ve found that in the absence of a consistent PRACTICE, it’s easy to get sidetracked and knocked off center.  It’s much easier to remain clear, strong, focused and present when you practice a daily discipline.  It doesn’t matter what it is – whatever works for you!  It could be meditation, prayer, mantra, physical exercise, or just a daily ritual all your own – as long as you practice with awareness, specific intention and consistency.

So I encourage you to practice the “OM” mantra, or another mantra you may already know.  Practice it for one day and notice the power, observe the effects!  If an unpleasant thought pops into your mind, just immediately return to your mantra.  Throughout the day, just repeat it silently to yourself. Challenge yourself and practice a whole week of mantra, and notice how you feel.

I’d love to know your experience.  In fact, I’ve experience such profound benefits that I’m considering creating a CD series about the power of mantra while I’m in Bali.  Here are my thoughts on this: I can share with you a few of the most significant mantras that I practice, and I’ll explain their meaning and the scientific reasons why and how they have elevated my life and how they can elevate your life, too.  I can also teach you how to practice mantra, and guide you through the process.  What do you think?  I’m very interested in your thoughts about mantra.  How inspired would you be if I created this CD series?    And what else would you be inspired for me to create?  Let me know your thoughts, and join the conversation!

Remember…

When you change, the world around you changes – You have that much power!

Love & Blessings,
Niurka

Article in Success for Women Magazine, February 12th, 2010

How do you know when you’ve made a great decision? Do you know immediately, in the moment of decision, or do you know in time, when you see the results? One decision has the power to transform everything. So what would it be worth to consistently make conscious decisions with clarity, certainty and confidence, knowing that no matter the outcome, you’ve made the most powerful choice?

The quality of your life is a reflection of the quality of your decisions. Are you fully aware of the decisions you are making from moment to moment? It’s easy to make decisions on “autopilot,” choosing today the same as yesterday, out of habit or repetition, or based on what other people are saying or doing. If you drink coffee every morning, 364 days in a row, it’s extremely likely that you’ll choose a cup of coffee on the 365th day—even when you have infinite choice! (You could choose water, or tea, or juice, or nothing at all.) Small decisions like this add up over time and create your destiny. That’s why it’s so important to stay alert each time you make a decision—so you can choose wisely and purposefully.

Whenever I find myself faced with a decision, I ask myself three questions that guide me in making the highest choice for my life. You can apply these questions for all decisions, even the little ones.

The most powerful decisions are those you make when you are fully aware and choosing in alignment with your purpose and values. Not just for the biggest and most important decisions, but for all the choices you make in life. Here are the three questions I ask myself to guide me in choosing wisely:

1) Is it essential? By “essential,” I don’t mean “necessary” or “required.” I mean, is it of my essence? Is it in alignment with who I really am and what’s most important to me?

2) Will it elevate and uplift my life? By that I mean, does it empower and inspire me? Do I feel energized by it? Each decision you make will either advance you toward your ultimate vision or hold you back. When faced with a choice, consciously follow the path that will make you stronger, wiser, healthier and happier.

3) Having made the decision, how do I feel? Imagine yourself in the future looking back on now, having realized the successful outcome of your decision. Notice what you see, hear and feel. Try on all the possible scenarios by visualizing the result of your decision in your mind before you make the choice. If hindsight is 20/20, give yourself this gift in advance.

Asking these three questions will inspire meaningful decisions. Usually, people make decisions emotionally and then justify them logically. This process brings awareness to both the emotional and logical reasons so that you discover and pursue the greatest options in support of your ultimate vision.

Wholeheartedly commit to your decision. The Latin root of the word decision means “to cut off.” So a decision is the choice to cut off other possibilities and clearly focus your energy in one direction while remaining open to the infinite possibilities around you. Asking those three questions provides the clarity, certainty and confidence to make wise decisions based on who you are and what’s most important to you.

Namaste.

Thanksgiving can be a sacred time where we nourish our community and ourselves with love and thanks. Rather than just stuffing ourselves like the turkey (or tofurkey!) on the table – how can we bring even more presence and appreciation to this holiday?

How can we make every day, and every moment a sacred feast of love and appreciation, so we reap the rewards of Thanksgiving not just one day a year, but always?

Below are three powerful practices you can apply and share with your loved ones around the thanksgiving table – and you can even practice them all year round. It’s not what we do once in a while that makes the difference, it’s what we practice daily that shapes our destiny, which is why I offer specific daily practices on my multimedia set, Faith & Gratitude.

1) Allow yourself to receive. Often people are conditioned to “go out and get things done” and to “make things happen.” While this can be a powerful masculine energy, it can also constrict the flow of abundance to you, because you cannot “go out and get” and create the space to “receive” at the same time. Giving thanks is the perfect way to be receptive and invite abundance into your life. When you give thanks, you create the space for abundance to flow to you. Take the time to nurture yourself and allow others to be nurturing with you. Ultimately, giving and receiving are one continuous flow, so it is essential to allow both energies.

2) Create sacred rituals. Rituals inspire presence and awareness, so create a ritual of appreciation when you eat. Many families pray or give thanks before they eat. Remember, everything in the Universe is energy, so instilling this energetic frequency in your food makes it even more nourishing than just the nutritional value of what you eat – not only on Thanksgiving, but always. You’re not just digesting calories; you are experiencing the sacred circle of life and the connection of us all – from the bounty on the table, to the farmers who harvested it, the grocery workers who sold it, the chef who prepared it, and you who enjoy it! So savor each delicious morsel and give thanks for the total nourishment – the flavors and sustenance of your food, the community you share it with and the people who have contributed to bringing you this meal.

3) Acknowledge your community. The closest people in your life have a profound influence on your success. Often, we see ourselves the way others see us, and others live up to our expectations of them. One of the greatest gifts you can give someone is to look for the best in them. Catch people doing things right! When we choose to actively love and appreciate the people in our lives we bring out the best in them, and they bring out the best in us. Remember, even the most challenging people can be our greatest teachers! Give special thanks and blessings to your loved ones and acknowledge them for the unique gifts and talents they bring to your life.

These are just three disciplines I use to invite even more abundance in my life. In fact, I have a massive array of tools and practices I use consistently, and it’s my joy to share the most powerful ones with you!

My multimedia set, Faith & Gratitude, offers some of these most profound practices to cultivate even more empowering states in your life. It teaches how you can transform the circumstances of your life by directing your energy wisely, practicing empowering questions, and consistently putting yourself in resourceful states. As you apply these lessons in your life, you will quickly materialize your desires and realize a greater sense of power and presence in each moment.

When you change, the world around you changes – You have that much power!

Peace,
Niurka
