If I am so successful, where is my (yellow) Beetle?

I was recently interviewed by the Female Entrepreneur Association and the story was published in the 'How she did it' section (Read HERE). Feeling pretty chuffed to have the opportunity to inspire others I also had a moment to reflect on whether I truly have done it, how I got to this point....and actually, what 'it' is!

When I had my first taste of coaching, I didn't get it. After a few weeks I started to get frustrated with my investment of time and money. Dammit, I had paid for a miracle, and I hadn't got it. OK, I'd given up smoking without thought, and suddenly found my head clear of negative thought and emotions, and yes, I'd been randomly approached by a publisher to write a book of short stories - but where was my yellow beetle??

Undeterred, I decided to invest further, because I had noticed the good stuff that was different, even though it wasn't quite what I was hoping for, perhaps I had to pay more. I continued to have some amazing breakthroughs, but immediately following, I still had a botched eye operation that gave me double vision and found myself in the UK with no where to live and no form of income - what the...??? OK, yes, I had got an all expenses paid short term job in Italy, where I had always wanted to go, and OK, I had that televised intimate lunch with Alan Cumming, but where was my car??

Now aware of my 'failure' I knew I had invested a huge amount of money and wanted to make it work, so I continued with my tasking, my new habits, my positive language and behaviour. I was conscious of my thoughts and retrained my brain to think differently, I noticed opportunities and grabbed them. I talked and wrote about what I had learnt constantly - and one day I noticed that things I said I actually meant, there was no doubt.

I believe 'it' is having the passion, confidence, determination and commitment to go for what you want...and self development and building a business is an ongoing process. Knowing what you want, focusing on it, taking action and having an absolute belief I can. I have no doubt.

I have a picture of success. A yellow beetle is what keeps me motivated, as I work towards it, but it means more than a car to me. It means freedom, travel, connection to friends and family... the list is fairly extensive and I know it will come when I am ready! So although I don't have that car (yet), I definitely have the rest of 'it'....and luckily I love to walk! 

I often ask clients "What does success look like for you?" Knowing this is a massive part of getting it because when you know, and it's positive and compelling for you, so starts the motivation for change..and then you need to create a new habit.
