I realized that in certain areas of business I was creating more stress for myself.

I was forcing myself to meet imaginary deadlines that I created. I wasn't looking at what I accomplished, but this forever expanding to-do list. I was fighting sleep, trying to stay up to get more done. I was creating content that wasn’t speaking to the changes I was making in business or the healing I was doing in life.

The truth was, I was out of alignment and I wasn't being intentional.

I wasn't aligned in my role as CEO, visionary, messenger, rule creator, and rule breaker. I wasn't taking the new changes I wanted to implement into account. I was doing what I always did.

And that was the problem.

I wanted different results.

I wanted to take new risks. I wanted to step out on faith and create..no shout out a different message with new products.

But my same thinking created resistance that made me quickly revert back to the safety of what I knew, the comfort of doing things the same way.

Maybe you can relate?

So I want to challenge you to do what I did. Create a mini-movie of your future.

Set aside 3-5 minutes a day to focus on the Being not the Doing. Allow yourself to see the vision, to be in the vision, to embody the vision, then create the to-do list from the vision.

• Think about how you want to position yourself as the CEO of your business/brand but also the leader/authority in your industry.

• What exactly are you working towards and for?

• Get excited about your company hitting milestones and envision yourself celebrating your COMPANY's achievements and features.

• Start to brainstorm on the vision, marketing, messaging, mission, branding, and products that are going to take your company to the next level.

• How can you better monetize your business? Do you need a new business model? How can you add more value, or do you need to raise prices? What do you need to have the financial success you want?

Take any inspired action if you're led.

The point is to start seeing the big picture of what you want, what's possible, what opportunities you want to go after, to check in with the direction of your goals, and to center your thoughts DAILY!!

The more you see this dream business, the more you'll be guided, the more you'll start taking action, and the more you'll see it become a reality.

Dream CEO, you won't be disappointed.

Takisha, P.S. Part of doing the inner work to elevate is answering the questions!! Becoming aware of your thoughts and truths. Then challenging them if they don't support you any longer.

Let me know if this worked for you.
