Life by Design: Learning is Winning

I’ve long been a big fan of that quote. It rings of Truth to me. What happened this week proves it yet again.

As you know, I signed up for Marie Forleo’s B-School on February 18th. Since then, I have been completely devoted to preparing for its March 9th official start by working through Marie’s preparation materials and list of recommended books.  I’ve already learned so much – about entrepreneurship, life, and myself. With the studio still out of order (water pipes and ceiling were replaced) I brought my yoga mat and mini-trampoline to my bedroom and spent the WHOLE week listening, doing the work, exercising, and growing in so many ways. I’ve also been very active in the Facebook Mastermind group – learning from others, sharing, etc.  Needless to say, my attention and intention were totally focused – and the energy is flowing big time!

On Friday, I was chosen one of Kris Carr’s Lucky 3 Winners. I don’t know how many people actually qualified, but she’s got over 4,300 people in her B-School Mastermind Group.  To qualify, you had to register for Marie Forleo’s B-School through her affiliate link.  This automatically gives you access to her 2 follow-up business training courses and work-life balance webinar after graduation. Then, you needed to promote the opportunity on Facebook.  That was easy – I was so excited about it all.  I was already sold on all B-School had to offer – now I would get to go deeper into the whole process with the internationally renown Kris Carr, a New York Times and #1 Amazon best-selling author, wellness activist and cancer thriver – the Sexy Crazy Wellness Revolution coach. Well, I’ve won!  Once I graduate from Marie Forleo’s B-School and complete Kris Carr’s Spotlight Crash Course and Mastery program, her team will review all of my work (website, social media, video, etc.) and give me one-on-one coaching via Skype.  Wow!  I’m the kind of learner who needs that kind of specific feedback, as I’m a bit of a technophobe and easily get – rewind…. got –  overwhelmed by creating an online business.  So Yay!

Learning is Winning:

I was a winner even before getting that great news. With every prep task and every book, my knowledge and mindset expanded.  I feel so much more confident and equipped than I did a week ago.  I’m standing taller, thinking bigger, seeing clearer, and feeling better than I did when I started. My body, mind, and soul are rejoicing from the devotion to my path.  My fears are dissipating, the possibilities are multiplying, and the signs are affirming.  Now I’d say that pretty well describes a winner, wouldn’t you?

Where is Your Attention/ Intention?

Now I’m not saying that you need to drop everything and obsessively dive into something the way I do.  That’s great for me and everything has aligned so that I can do that at this time in my life. I’ve been working on my career as an artist since 1989 though…

What I am saying is that it is true that where your attention and intention go, the energy flows.

What kind of energy is flowing your way these days? From what I’ve read, heard, and lived, that’s a reflection of your past intentions / attention.

Where is your attention now?  Are you on course towards your life vision? Is it time to adjust your focus? Is it time to create new intentions?

There’s great power in learning more about your professional field, personal interests, your Self, etc.  There are also many ways to learn – life, mentorship, courses, etc.  What’s right for you?  Where would you like energy to flow?
