Seize Your Joy!

I know this may seem like a really weird question.  In fact it’s supposed to be.  But the purpose for me asking is quite important and actually means more for your true purpose than any other question I could ever ask you. 

Why? 

Simply because what you choose to believe in can either make or break your ability to truly discover your true purpose.  If you believe (and I’m talking really deep down) you have a real purpose in life; you will not only discover it, but it’ll feel almost impossible to not fulfill it. 

However if you do not truly believe you have a purpose, you’ll have a hard time trying to discover it.  This is a fact of life.  But there is hope if you think you may not have a purpose. 

Now I know right now you may be thinking oh this is that “The Secret” stuff.  But it actually goes much deeper.  This translates into every area of your life.  Because you’ll need every area of your life to grow if you’re going to do your dream work. 

For example:

• If you believe you’ll be successful in your career.  You will be.

• If you believe your finances will improve so you’re able to fund your dream work.  They will.

• If you believe you’ll find the time you need to do your dream work.  You will.

• And so on…

Now let’s first get something straight.  Things will not always be easy.  You will not wake up one day and suddenly believe you have a true purpose and the work will just fall into your lap.  Yes this may sound a bit discouraging but on a deeper level you’ll benefit more if you have to grow to believe. 

This way, when you make the conscious decision to believe it’ll be that much harder for someone/something else to deter you.  This means you’ll have to make some changes.  You’ll have to develop “thicker skin” so others’ opinions don’t deter you.   

You’ll have to develop new habits and even friendships.  So you’re behaviors attract and retain only the people who want to see you succeed.  You’ll have to do things you may have never done before.  To ensure you don’t fall back into habits that work against you. 

The choice to believe in yourself will cause monumental shifts in everything you see, say, think, and do.  In the end…the opportunities, achievements, and blessings will be well worth it.  Along your life’s journey you’ll have to grow and push yourself.  You’ll have to think positively and victoriously. 

If you choose to believe in yourself, your purpose, and most important your God, you’ll have all you need to learn your true purpose and share it with the world! 

If you need any help making the shift from “I think I have a purpose” to “I know I have a purpose and I’m ready to get started”, email me and I’ll give you my best help ever!   

You have a gift, now it’s time to share it with the world!

This weekend my family went to our local Asian market.  My hubby and I are on a detox so we are using rice paper, noodles, flour, etc.  While there I purchased a small bag of fortune cookies for my boys. 

They rarely eat sweets so I thought this might be a nice treat for them.  Well in the package I got the same fortune twice.  Sure I know they’re mass produced but still in the same bag I got the same fortune twice. 

So get this, the fortune speaks to what I help Moms do, so well.  It speaks to the very essence of my work.  I know you can’t take it any longer and want me to get to the point, well here goes.  The fortune was… 

“Sure, you have duties, but what about your duties to yourself?” 

I LOVE IT!  This made me almost tremble with excitement.  I thought wow what a perfect time to get this and to be able to share it with all of you!  So with that I ask you, what special duties are you doing every day, week, month, etc. for yourself? 

Email me (Quiana@SeizeYourJoy.com) and let me know.  I’d love to hear about your “Self Duties”.  Also if you’d like to know more about the detox, send me an email and I’ll give you all the details and you can try it for yourself.

Okay so how’s Better Than Great In ’08 going for you?  Have you been really saying your affirmations daily? 

If so great!  If not, give it a try.  It really helps if you make it a part of your daily routine.  It may seem a bit weird at first but pretty soon you’ll believe it and then all kinds of really great things will open up in your life.  I have seen this happen time and time again.

Let me know if you need any help making this “stick”.  As always I’m here for you and want you to really succeed.  This is just one quick and easy way to start your path to prosperity. 

Another really great way is to sign up for the workshop Create Your Prosperity Plan For 2008.  It goes more in depth about the many many ways you can make 2008 your best year ever! 

Check it out here.

Every year I determine what my new and/or additional affirmation will be.  This year’s really sends the overall message I want for myself, my family, and my business.  My affirmation for 2008 is: 

Better Than Great in ’08!!! 

Yes, it may sound a bit “sloganish” (yes, I know it’s not a real word).  However, it really sends a true message about abundance and greatness.  What do you think about affirmations? 

If you believe they work in your life, feel free to use mine.  If you aren’t really sure what good having an affirmation will do for you, give it a try.  Each day speak your affirmation when you wake and right before you go to bed.  Throughout your day would be even better. 

Say your affirmation with the true belief it is true and will bring blessings your way!  Not sure where to start?  Use mine as a starter and then allow your creativity to help you come up with others.  So here goes (use these and modify them as you’d like):

• My relationships will be better than great in ’08!

• My family will be better than great in ’08!

• My business will be better than great in ’08!

• My health will be better than great in ’08!

• My career will be better than great in ’08!

• My life will be better than great in ’08!

I truly believe you can speak blessings into your life by saying affirmations.  Try using affirmations to help you improve your life.  If you have an affirmation you love, feel free to share it with me.   

May you be better than great in ’08!
