8 Words That Changed My Life [photo]
Hi there,
Below is some writing scribbled on the back of a business card. It may not mean much to you, but it meant everything to me. See, I received this from the publisher of a magazine after I turned in my very first freelance assignment.
“‘Dear Elizabeth, Thanks for the great story!’ Tim.”
Those 8 words changed my life — it was the moment that I realized my dream was becoming my reality.
Doing strategy sessions with the Dreaming Big! participants this week has brought to mind my own dream of being a freelance writer and how much I wish I would have had the support and guidance these folks are going to receive.
Back then, I was totally out of my comfort zone, had no idea what I was doing from a practical standpoint, and had a lot of fears coming up that I didn’t really know how to handle.
With no training in journalism, I was so clueless about how publishing worked that I actually wrote the editor after I turned in my story asking him if he needed my byline. I didn’t know that “byline” just meant you get your name on the story. I thought it was that thing you sometimes see at the bottom of an article with a little description about the author. He must have been awfully confused! It doesn’t matter, of course, the important thing was that I was finally published — and received a nice check, too!
That scribbled note has been on my bulletin board for five years now. It is the symbol that I made my dream come true.
It’s already mid-January — time really flies! Pretty soon it will be February, then spring, and before you know it, the year will be gone, once again.
Where are you in making your dream a reality in 2010? I encourage you to consider these questions as you move forward:
1) How are you going to prevent things like procrastination and self-sabotage when that pull to go back to the familiar happens — and it will?
2) If you listened to the free teleseminar last week, how did you answer that one key question? It’s really important that you answer this question before you begin taking action toward whatever it is you want to do. (E-mail me back and let me know what you came up with!)
4) What is your support system? Without it, your dream is toast.
5) Do you understand how to get into the “vortex” so you can let go of the struggle and do a beautiful dance with the divine realm?

If you have ever experienced self-sabotage or procrastinated your own happiness, you can’t afford NOT to be in the Dreaming Big! Creating Reality program. It’s budget-friendly, you’ll receive unwavering support toward your dream and you’ll have the accountability you need all year long. Best of all, you’ll learn how to let go of the struggle and allow life to bring you what you need and desire with ease and grace.
In addition, I lead every call to guide you in quantum concepts and help you get into the vortex like I did (you’ll hear my vortex story when you listen to the teleseminar).
Life isn’t a dress rehearsal. It is a myth that “someday” it will be a better time to create the life you truly want. The truth is, when someday comes, you’ll just be in another “now”!
If you have any questions, just hit reply and let me know. There is still room in the program for you — grab your slot before it’s too late: http://www.yourquantumsuccesscoach.com/dreaming-big-2010
I can’t WAIT to hear about your dream!
Warmly,
Beth
