CARA'S
CORNER
I've
decided to publish my e-magazine twice a month. I just am too excited
about what I have learned and am eager to share it. I hope you think
that's a good idea.
For
those of you who have filled out the survey, thanks. I've already
been given some insights that will help me create more products
and opportunities for you.
The
subject of my article is vital to the success of your business.
Please take time to work with the questions posed and find the
answer which will be the cornerstone of your life's endeavors.
You
may find my e-book Beyond
Your Wildest Dreams, Visioning For Positive Change to be
of assistance in your discovery process.
Warmly,
DO
YOU KNOW YOUR INNERMOST GOAL?
We
sure know about goals. We've been taught about goal setting at
every turn. But have you ever thought that there might be a difference
between an inner goal and an outer goal? Consider this.
In
my first marketing class we spent a lot of time trying to distill
what we were doing into one benefit laden "elevator speech,"
the seven to nine words you could say to someone on a short elevator
ride that would capture the essence of what you do—or are.
My first one was "I help seekers deepen their spiritual experience."
However,
I recently went hunting for my most intimate inner goal. Why was
I here? What was my mission? How am I being called to serve? I
went very deep. I went past the e-books and teleclasses and coaching.
I went past the specifics of the skills I have been gifted with.
I went to my heart looking for my life purpose, my calling, my
divine place of service.
I
thought about what I love most in life, what I love to do, who
I want to touch, how I want to touch them, what brings me joy
and happiness and satisfaction. And I found it.
"I
help you translate your Soul's Calling into a journey of empowerment
and choice."
I
can't get more fundamental than that. At least not that I am aware
of at this point in my life.
As
I hold this inner goal in my heart and test every other goal up
against it, I begin a journey of alignment. When an idea for a
new e-book shows up I test it—will this help someone translate
their Soul's Calling into a journey of empowerment and choice?
When I set an outer goal to create a new teleclass, I hold it
up to see if it is aligned with my inner goal. Before each coaching
call, I focus myself and tune into the person I am to work with
to hear and feel and understand their Soul's Calling to be certain
our work is on purpose. I use my inner goal to help me define
my outer goals.
Find
your inner goal, your inner purpose, your inner calling. Define
it for yourself and test it against your actions and choices.
Adjust it as your awareness increases. Keep it in your heart and
your consciousness. Let it be the driving force in your thoughts
and awareness. Let your inner goal radiate out so everyone can
feel it. Let your inner goal be a part of every outer goal. Align
yourself with your heart's calling.
What
is your inner goal?
