The Abundant Mind with Joe Trevors Joe Trevors

Where are you on "I am..."? Is it supporting you, or detracting from what you're wishing you could do, be, or have?

Are they propelling you forward, or holding you back?

Are they making you healthy and happy, successful or abundant, and supporting you in love and happiness, positive habits and the like? Or is your life completely sideways and you're no longer even trying?

Is it your "I am..."? Is it the unconscious programming or filing away of thoughts into your unconscious that's keeping you from whatever it is you are (or could be) striving to attain?

Health & Wellness / Weight-loss or gain? Money? Career aspirations? Newfound love?

Are you finding you're especially struggling despite listening to a particular speaker or celebrity? Or have read certain books? Or subscribe to a coach like me?

Those are all amazing, and I applaud you for the effort (and encourage you to continue)...but...if you're then affirming where you CURRENTLY are with OTHER thoughts on where you are (or have been or 'should' be), then it's entirely possible your neurology is 'protecting you' from your best efforts.

Have a listen, and let's discuss!

As we were preparing to launch the newest version of AbundantMind.ca, I was trying to ensure I was as fully engaged in your progress as possible, and so I sat with where I felt I've been hearing you ask most for help.

Without question, it was largely 'Authenticity'. And for some (I might even go so far as to say 'most'), it's not that you're even consciously aware of your need for help in that realm...and yet you're all struggling with challenges that - were you able (read 'willing') to be more authentic, more genuine in how you're showing up, you'd be well on your way to better managing (AND overcoming) what's challenging you most. 

So, with that said, we launched a 6 module, 49 lesson course (you can access it here if you'd like) within the new platform, and I felt it appropriate to encourage you to look at authenticity (not pushing you toward my course, but genuinely asking you to take a look inside YOU...inside SELF). 

How are you showing up today? Who are you showing up as? If I were to force you to sit in the present moment, would you know who you are, and would you feel 'on track'? If not, that's a starting point. A cue. 

When something goes wrong, we don’t have to go with it! We don’t! If we can accept the fact that things DO go wrong, and in doing so we release our need in ‘hitching our wagon to it’ and going everywhere else that negative situation goes.

...and that’s awesome! It means that no matter how challenging today (or this past week, month, or year) has been, that period of challenges will end. Knowing this - and coming to terms with the fact the good times will also end (or, at the very least, ‘change’) prepares us for that eventuality, thus lessening the stress, anxiety, remorse or grief, regret, and the like when it finally does happen. Balance.

“If you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t say anything at all!” What if we practiced that more without our ‘self’? Right?! Maybe you’re struggling to buy into talking yourself up to...well...yourself. I get that. It’s not always easy (especially at first). But how about just not always trash-talking yourself to your ‘self’?

Would you rather be able to take a detour at your next bit of construction? Or just be held up in traffic, instead? Not getting where you need to be on time - if at all? Take the detour. Take it now. A change of course is absolutely better than dead on your original course.
