In an era when we have so much time-saving technology at our fingertips. When there is information all around us? How is it, that we sometimes find it so hard to find clarity to what we are looking for in life?
If we want to accomplish things but we are finding it hard to find clarity - It could be because of a lack of commitment and action. If you want to achieve things in life you will need to be clear about what you want the end game to be. What do you WANT and what is your WHY?
When you have a powerful attachment to what you want to achieve ….the accomplishment will almost certainly come on its own.
What is getting in the way of you getting clear right now?
There are three sets of feelings that stop you from having clarity:
fear,
resistance,
distractions!!
Clarity is un-dependable it comes like a bolt of lighting and we never know when its coming. But what if I told you that you could take simple steps to help clarify things when the going gets tough?
1. Press Pause, STOP….Do nothing for 15 minutes everyday, to start thinking about what you want.
2.Pay attention to yourself.
3.Ask questions about yourself?
4. Ask more questions getting deeper into your fear, resistance and distraction. Don’t be afraid to ask yourself these questions if you want to unblock whatever it is that’s stopping you from getting clear.
5. Write things down to clarify your feelings, and goals,
6. Be willing to receive the answers.
Try to work on your WHY the more passionate and powerful you feel about your WHY the more likely you are to take real action.
Yours in Success

I couldn’t agree more. And, it’s not easy to step away from IMs, email, ringing phones. HOWEVER, your steps are what I do to set the tone for my day by meditating…and, I have to say, on the days I do it in a focused committed way, my days just go more smoothly. When I don’t and I buy into all the distractions and noise, I get less done and feel less satisfied at the end of the day. We have to learn to use the technology to streamline our lives, not to clutter up our time. It is possible - thanks for starting the conversation - what do other people do?

Beth,
Knowing exactly what you want is crucial. And sometimes we don`t know. I am learning that by asking these questions, what is working, why is it working, what is missing the presence of which would make a difference, and what steps do I have to take to put that into place.
Bottom line is taking the action steps to make our why a reality.

Beth,
Excellent post and to the point. I have a tendency to get a little wordy in order to get my point across. You have a wonderful writing style.
In regards to getting clear you are absolutely correct. You first must have your WHY well defined before taking action. If you don’t have an understanding of why you are doing it, you won’t go in whole heartily.
Thanks for sharing your insight!
Keep up the wonderful work,
Dave and Dawn

Hi Beth,
Yes, we definitely have to slow down long enough to figure out what we want. Then it takes commitment and action, just like you said.
Of all the things that stop us, I think I’m not alone when I say that fear has always been a big roadblock for me. Once we push through the fear and start taking steps though, that’s when the fun begins.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts.

Hi Beth,
You have given lots of great tips in this post. We all have so many distractions, I really like your tips for taking time out to think. If you do not have clear focus it is to easy to be distracted easily.
All the best Rosemary

Beth,
your have landed on the right subject. This is the key to beginning a real home business. That will be applied to any business.
If you know your why or whys. This is the first step. Then write it down. You should have it match the one thing that you have a burning passion about. This is what your business should be based on. You just need to understand how to monetize it.
Only do what you love doing as a business. This will have you eat it, sleep it, live it. This business will not be a chore and you will never dream of doing anything else. If you do not know how to make your passion into being a business.
That is why you must have a team. No one person will ever accomplish much in business alone. Your “Why” is that passionate thing in your life that you would do day in and out. If money and time was not an issue. You would…..all day and every day. You fill it in and that is your why. Now the rest is up to you. There is no limitations and everything can be done.
Beth enjoyable subject matter. I love your location and style. I look forward in reading the next awesome post. Thank you for being one of our great coaches in the industry.

Hello Beth
Fear and resistance are emotions that stops us from having clarity. Resistance prevents us from moving ahead in all area of life. In your simple steps to clarity,step #4 asking question getting deeper is really an excellent suggestion. Doing this step takes one deeper into their heart and it is in the heart where all the issues of life resides. Thanks for these simple but very effective steps to clarity.
Thanks

Hi Beth
Great post and absolutely correct. We all become confused at times and it’s hard to see the way forward.
Take a little time out to rest your head and reflect as Beth suggests.
Re-focus on your reason why and then go again.
Your reason why anmd belief will see you through

Beth in particular what resonates with me is - take time to pause. It’s particularly interesting to me that even as those of us introverts who are sucked into the allure of technology, we forget our strengths of focus and can get zapped away by too much information. Pausing, energizes all of us it seems.
Thanks.

Yes, I think we forget to breath sometimes. Not literally, but to just pause and take things easy.
Thanks for your comment,

Hi Beth, this is so true - it especially true at time when you have to do something to move your business forward but, for some reason we dont want to do it e.g. the “ten tonne telephone” where you’d rather cut your hand off than pick up the phone - if at times like these you remember Beth’s words of wisdom these moments will be easier to overcome

Hey Beth,
Timely post for me.
My biggest problem is distractions and am working really hard to stop being distracted - but it is not easy, is it?
