Identify your resistance
When our subconscious mind hold us back
from pursuing something that we love, it is
because we are holding a conflicting belief
about it.
To identify your resistance, question yourself.
Ask yourself why you feel better when you
procrastinate, or why getting what you really
want could actually put you in a place that
makes you feel more vulnerable than ever. Find
a way to meet those needs before you proceed.
Have a master plan for your life.
Forget five or even 10 year plans; so much
changes over time it's nearly impossible to set
goals that you'll be able to keep. Most likely,
new or even better opportunities will surface,
and though your life won't look like you
thought it would, you're better off for that.
Instead, have a master plan. Identify your core
values and motivations. Ask yourself what is the
ultimate goal of what you want to accomplish
while you are alive; imagine the kind of legacy
you want to leave. Once you have your Big
Picture values identified, you can make
decisions for the long-term that align with your
true self.
Start a gratitude journal.
The best way to start putting yourself in a
headspace of "having" rather than "wanting" is
to begin a gratitude practice. By expressing
thanks for all that you do have, you shift your
mindset from being hungry for change to
feeling satisfied with where you are at. Nothing
magnetizes abundance to you like gratitude.
There's a saying that once you believe you have
enough, you are open to receiving more and
more and more. That is undoubtedly true.
Start asking for what you want,
even if know you'll be denied.
If someone asks you to do a consulting project,
ask for the amount of money you truly want to
earn for it. If your goal is to get a promotion in
your organization, sit down with your higher up
and make your intentions known. Reach out to
brands you want to work with.

Start asking for what you want, even if you have
no reason to believe that anyone will actually
give you any of those things. Eventually, they
will.
Release your attachment to the
"how."
Your job is to identify the what, and then to
work in tandem with other people for the how.
If your goal is to work remotely and run your
own business, instead of giving up if your first
attempt fails, try reimagining how else you
could achieve your ultimate vision in a new way
that is more financially lucrative.
The point is that life will always surprise you
with how things come to fruition. Instead of
being obsessively attached to every little detail
working out the way you think it should be, be
open to potential and possibility, even if it's
something you never imagined before.
Surround yourself with allies.
Start spending time with people who are
ambitious, supportive and creative.
If you're hanging out every weekend with
people who are likewise as unhappy with their
lives, you aren't going to receive an abundance
of support if you try to break free and do your
own thing. Remember that you will truly
become who you spend the most time with,
and choose who that is very carefully.
Fill your "dead air" time with
affirmation and motivation.
When you're on your commute each morning,
listen to a motivational speech or podcast.
While you're doing the morning routine or
driving, tune into a talk show that relates to the
type of business you're trying to do. Infuse your
life with as much affirmation and motivation as
possible. You may need to hear the lessons
more than once, but they will seep into your
brain over time, and eventually, you will find
yourself acting on wisdom received from those
who are where you want to be.
