You better grab a cuppa or have SIRI read this to you while you get comfy⦠Itās a long one, but I hope it makes you think.
I was going to post this in the group for just people who have their own business and are working towards supplementing or replacing their income, but then it hit me... we all do something... so why do we choose that?
To ask yourself WHY we do anything in life is truely a big question.
If you have NOT asked yourself WHY you do or are inspired to do something, it could lead you down a very introspective path, about the direction we are heading, and this will change as we grow. Why we do things drives us to how we influence others and our intentions, the behaviour we exhibit as well ase by what and how we act, the vibration and frequency we put out and of course, what draws back to us and then the legacy we leave... it kind of all starts withā¦
Why do we do what we do?
Why do we begin or end something?
Why do we live where we live?
Why do we eat what we eat?
Why do we drive the car that we drive?
Why do we love who we love?
Why do we use doTERRA products?
Why do we support each other as humans?
Why do we choose what we choose?
And so onā¦
Now, I will be transparent. I have not read this book yet. As a matter of fact, it just arrived in the mail a few days ago for Kash (my partner). But simply the book cover has caused me to start a journey to get clearer on WHY I choose to do what I do, and to be frank⦠it has caused me to really think about my life.
I know now, more than ever, that I am SO GRATEFUL for starting my own businessā. Itās more than perfect. It has been a huge self development journey. My WHY has changed several times as I grow⦠overcoming my fear which is False Evidence Appearing Real, got over me and realised WHY I was driven to do what I do.
As an Entrepreneur, although I work with my team⦠itās me and what I put into my business. If I want it to be successful, itās up to me. And when itās not where I want it to be, I canāt blame anyone else for what I didnāt do.
At the end of the day⦠itās the decisions I make and the actions I take that determine the path of my future. So WHY do I choose success or not⦠happy or victim?
When we look at what is going on in our life right now⦠we look for evidence to prove us right⦠how ever that shows up for you. Then the question is, WHY?
When you have a clear WHY, it inspires you to create. And let me be clear about something. We think we just create the āgoodā stuff in our life⦠hmmmmm.
Donāt believe me?⦠What do you fear that keeps showing up? What do you just āknow is going to happenā Think about what drives you and what you think about most. (Theyāre called beliefs⦠you know, those things you think about most.) You believe you donāt deserve to be loved, or to succeed, or to have a trusting friend⦠youāre just waiting for them to fail you and when they ādoā⦠AH HA! I told you so! Or why does this ALWAYS happen to me? See, I told you so!
You know the saying, Iāll believe it when I see it? Well, your WHY moves you so much that youāll see it when you believe it! You know in your soul and NOTHING will stop you from reaching your goal⦠because itās not about other people and how your fear of their judgment will hold you back⦠no! You are so clear about what you need to do that you no longer CARE about the FEAR that you created and you create something NEWā¦
We are responsible for our own life⦠I know this might not apply to everyone not just a doTERRA business. our own decisions, our own actions and the consequence, be it favourable or not, we choose because⦠well, you canāt blame others for the actions we take or donāt take, right? We create our own experience in life.
There seems to be a common theme if you are choosing the favourable outcome and that is⦠because ultimately, it makes us and all those involved, feel good! This is WHY. And when we feel good, we are in a place to create that which we desire. Well, we can create from feeling not so good too, but that is NOT creating what feels good⦠and that is NOT why we are here.
When we feel good or not so good, it is an indicator that what we are putting out. I wonāt get too into this⦠that is another post. For now letās just ask WHY we do the things we do and what drives us to be our best selves, to create abundance in our life, or to have a successful business.
Or on the other hand, why do we feel like a victim of our circumstances, why do we feel not good enough, smart enough, not loved enough, donāt deserve it, canāt have it, no body cares, no one listens to us, and it never happens for you
All of those things might seem like a simple answer, but I bet if for every answer you really thought about the underlying drive⦠oh itās something sooooooo much deeper than money or just all the cool stuff the money can buy.
I have a few businesses and they go hand and hand⦠and I am really clear about what I do, who I work with but most of all WHY! It getās clearer the clearer I get and the more I stay focused and just DO IT! Because when I do get into alignment with WHY I am doing it⦠IT FEELS SOOOOO GOOD!
Finding your WHY, finding your puzzle piece and DOING that is a game changer, a life changer and makes life so much more enjoyable, WHY wouldnāt you want to do it?
Itās up to YOU to decide. Itās up to YOU to choose. Itās up to YOU to allow it to flow. Itās up to YOU take action. Itās up to YOU to find that spark and LIGHT THE WORLD with your GIFT.
So, I ask you this⦠what drives you and WHY? And donāt say money or material things⦠That is so temporary. DIG! There is an underlying reason that will probably make you so emotional, you may just cry.
I hope that gave you food for thought, I know it did me. Thanks for reading to the end.
Now go be an example, so others want to be just like you (being you) and together we will change the world.
Much love,
Zamoura Mayo
