How to Reclaim Your Power Even When Things Look too Scary

reclaim-power

We have an unprecedented opportunity right now to quit looking at the “way things are” as being bad, scary or harmful, and discover how to take the energy that is freely floating around and use it to create the kind of world WE want.

Only one place to start

And the only place it can start is with you and me, in our own tiny little lives.

Yes, we are little within the Big Picture, but as we all know, one little tiny life added to another added to another can make a very, very VERY big impact.

Remember John Denver’s song What Can One Man Do? One man, one woman, one child can act according to his or her inner truth, stick to it, be passionate, and stick to it, sing, write, paint, teach, work in alignment with that inner passion, stick to it–imagine if we ALL, each and every one of us–refused to hang out in poor-poor-me, poor-powerless me anymore.

Imagine if we simply went about seeing, feeling, and doing–LIVING–our passionate dreams!

Imagine what our world would transform into really, really quickly–I bet we could create it within only two generations, maybe less.

I’m not kidding when I say it’s up to you and me. I really really mean it.

How do we do it?

Quit thinking of the world as having “gone wrong”

Because what’s happening now is *right* if you remember that we can literally use the energy of what is happening right now to make new choices.

You might be thinking of how you’re going to lose this, that or the other. So what if you do? Any material possession is replaceable.

The correct question: “What will you do next?”

Your time on earth is not replaceable.

Nor is your heart, your life, or your voice – especially if you keep silent and don’t share your joy, love and dreams.

So how do you stay out of fear and reclaim your power?

How do you stay out of worry for yourself, your kids, your home, your finances–and have the strength to carry on and keep focused on your highest dreams?

How do you create your dreams?

1. Create a clear picture/feeling of what you want
2. Intend it and build passion about it
3. Transform your limiting energy into power
4. KNOW that you can create it and have it
5. Take focused steps to create that
6. When you fall away from the dream-path, step back, reassess
7. Correct. And do it again. And again. And again.
6. Make sure you have massive support.

Power! What power do you have?

Are you shuddering when I talk about power? We’re brought up to shun power. Yes! Shun the power OVER, but don’t shun the power of Love.

You need personal power just to exist in the world. To get more of it, you harvest every last shred of so-called “negative” energy in your body, mind, emotions and life and turn it into the power to create.

You’ve got to find and claim your energy

Then transform it into power, and use it.

Once you transform your “negative” energy, you’ll have ten times the amount of impact once you align it with your positive, passionate dreams for creativity and joy.

I invite you to transform your fear, worry, doubt–even the feelings of procrastination and paralysis you’ve been having!

I invite you to get all 5 Wealth Maverick Audios: All 5 Wealth audios

I’m going to show you how to:

Find the pure energy hiding behind your fears, worries and doubts to transform, so you can create the beginnings or expansion of your dream life–a life you can awaken to in awe every day.

Use Power Eyes to keep from being overwhelmed by the world, and keep on track even when it seems everything is conspiring to drag you off.

Take every last one of your limiting beliefs and turn them into dynamic energy for creating something so much better.

Become so non-stoppable, so full of love, joy and inner resources that your life will not only get better but ripple out and affect hundreds of lives all around you–all without extra effort on your part.

You can listen to the recording right on your computer or download it and load it on your iPod or MP3 player.

Start saying YES to life!

If it’s really true that “it’s all energy,” what good does “I’m scared” do you? Well, even that can be good–I’ll show you that, too!

YES–it’s affordbale at 39.00.

YES–you get extra ebook goodies as well-don’t I always give you terrific extra goodies?

YES–I look forward to seeing you create the power to live the life YOU want. The power to stop being afraid, the power to awaken and energize YOUR dreams for full peace, joy, wealth and love.

WHAT PEOPLE SAY:

Hi Angela,

I wanted to say THANK YOU for your words. I have been scrupulously avoiding the news, even while my husband can’t seem to get enough, and still the feeling of panic has threatened to grip me.

Your words and most of all your courageous focus on the Good, as well as your constant generosity remind me of Who I Really Am and help me to keep my focus on what I want.

Sorry – Bill Gates Ain’t Gonna Pay You! – Avoid Being A Scammer

gates

You know those emails (and now facebook posts!) that say if you send on the email you’ll get paid thousands of dollars by Bill Gates? Sorry ’bout that. Scam.

Four things to do

Here are four ways you can keep your friends, family and acquaintances un-spammed and happy with you.

1. Don’t yell

Did you know that WHEN YOU TYPE IN ALL CAPITALS it’s considered yelling? Don’t do that. It’s hard to read, and people will yell at you for doing it.

Refrain from panicked email subject lines like PLEEEEASE READ. Most emails with subject lines like that are blatantly spam.

If you want your email opened and given proper respect, use both Upper and Lower case letters.

2. How to send out mass emails without everyone yelling at you

If you send out notes to a group from your regular email carrier and not from your auto-responder, never, ever, ever, EVER use Cc (carbon copy).

ALWAYS use Bcc (blind carbon copy). If your email carrier doesn’t have Bcc, then don’t send out mass notes from it. Period. Find another way. Sign up for an autoresponder system like 1AutomationWiz.com or a mass emailing system like constantcontact.com of one kind or other.

Why? Because down the line, that note that you Cc’d people, which thenceforth went to more people and then more people–every single one of them with every single email address sitting there like lame ducks waiting to get shot, whose recipients passed it on–one day, a spammer is going to see all those lovely lines of email addresses and use them for his spamming (or hers). It’s called email address spam harvesting.

When you use Cc, you have turned into an indirect spammer. Don’t do it. Use Bcc. Got that? Third….

3. Don’t use scammy subject lines

When you get notes with subject lines like PLEEEEASE READ, and they tell you something like Bill Gates can track every email you send and will pay you ten cents or something ridiculous don’t believe it! He can’t track your emails! Good grief! He wouldn’t want to! NO, sorry, he won’t send you any money! And if he could track your emails, isn’t that just a little bit spooky??? Grow up!

4. Check to see if it’s real

Check with snopes.com every time you get a note like that, and you will find that they are NOT for real.

Save yourself the embarrassment of having to write your list and tell them it wasn’t a real email and that you are embarrassed and won’t ever, ever do it again. Don’t send them out in the first place.

What to do when you get an email with PLEEEEASE READ in the subject line?

Hit delete. BEFORE you read it.

No, it really won’t be anything you might miss.

No, it won’t be anything important your far-away cousin sent you.

No, it has not one good thing about it at all–unless you’re a spammer, in which case it will have hundreds of email addresses innocent ignorant people have allowed to circulate endlessly.

Please, do the rest of us a big favor, and be a savvy emailer, OK? Delete those things as fast as you get them, and help keep those addresses out of harm.

Check with snopes.com, OK? Thanks.

Inspire Me Today: Shining Example of Living Your Dream

gail-goodwin

One of my favorite websites is InspireMeToday.com.

If you are a coach, healer, energy practitioner or therapist, a teacher, speaker, author or artist, or work in some way to inspire and encourage people to live and do their best, I want to invite and encourage YOU to sign up to be a Luminary on the site right away. It’s run by an amazingly dynamic woman named Gail Goodwin.

She’s a shining example of a Daring Dreamer.

She literally awoke one morning with a song in her head. She and her daughter, who is a singer, and who arranged the song for her band to perform, have taken that song–and themselves and the band–across the world to entertain our troops.

The stories she heard about how those guys survive the tough time out in the warzones inspired her so much that she set up InspireMeToday.com so they could have an inspiring story, a video they can watch, and a short and a long MP3 they can listen to on their iPods or MP3 players every day. Anyone can listen to and get inspiration from these stories and inspirational messages.

I was so fortunate to be one of the first Luminaries on her site. I highly encourage you to go to InspireMeToday.com, sign up, create your audios and even a video if you want, and submit them. You get to be a Good Guy and inspire people, and you get free exposure for yourself and your biz. What more could you want?!?

IDareYouRadio.comOh yes–please do tell Gail I sent you–I like her to know I’m still out here rooting for her. Thanks! You’ll find the inspiring interview I did with her here.

Membership Sites: Beware of the Hazards of Free Trials

trial

You’ve probably seen many membership sites and one-month ‘free’ trial on websites. They’re a great idea – but I invite you to please be careful.

Some one-month ‘free’ trials don’t have end-of-trial notifications, and if you’ve forgotten you signed up, it can be a big surprise to get their charge on your card at the end of the trial time.

Here’s what I’ve learned to do:

I’m really choosy now as to what I sign up for! If I do decide to do the trial, I write on a sticky note the site name, my info (username and password), and the date I signed up for the trial membership.

If I have doubts as to whether I’m going to stay, I make a reminder to check with myself by a certain date so I can unsubscribe if I want to before I get charged.

If I know I’m going to stay, I add the site to my list of monthly payments that I make so it won’t be a surprise when my card gets charged.

Another thing.

If it’s a site where you could possibly enter all kinds of info and data, you may not want to put time and data into it so you don’t want to leave when the time the trial month is up.

Just wait! You’ve lived without the site until now–it’s OK to live without it until you make a final decision. Don’t put your data and info on it yet until you’re sure.

I’m talking about shopping cart sites, autoresponder sites, affiliate sites, web 2.0 sites–they know darn well if you start populating all the info fields with your data you’re not likely to leave.

Do your research first.

Avoid entering your email address or any of your personal info before you see if it’s the one you feel best about sticking with on a permanent basis.

If it’s a site where you get a lot for your money, and you feel good about the people who run it, and the integrity and quality of what you get, then don’t hesitate!

p.s. THE RIGHT SIGN: Maybe you’ve seen this video already, but I think it’s lovely. (And it’s a great example of what happens when you have the right marketing message!)

 

Dianne LeGro, Singer and Speaking Coach Extraordinaire

legro

I remember when my little brother was very little, he was a merry little guy, and he used to go out into the day with a song on his lips.

He was always humming or singing, and later on, playing his guitar. Now as an adult, he has his own band. It was so great growing up next to such a vibrant, happy individual.

It was like that for expert Voice Trainer Dianne Legro, too – always singing, humming, listening to nature, bringing her songs with herself wherever she went as a child. She sang so much that she ended up singing (with her “large voice”) at her church at age 6, and was a full-on member of the acting community at the tender age of 12.

I invite you to listen in as Dianne and I talk about all the inspiring, daring things she has done, what that took for her, and the amazing support she got (like, from noen other than Mary Rockefeller!), and how she fell naturally right into coaching people for becoming great speakers with sensational careers.

She doesn’t do just voice training–not this gal! She includes body, content, booking *and* marketing training–the whole package, so you can be a great speaker and be booked everywhere.

Joe Nunziata: Karma Busting and Practical Spiritual Selling

joe-nunz

Not too long ago, if you’d told Joe Nunziata, the Spiritual Selling expert, that he would be helping people become successful by understanding spiritual principles and clearing their chakras, he’d have laughed heartily.

He was pretty stuck, declaring bankruptcy twice and losing everything dear to him.

How did he shift?

Listen in, and you’ll discover what important book Joe read that helped turn his life around (one most of you may not have heard of), and the person he worked with for years who introduced him to the powerful information and processes that he now teaches so eloquently.

Joe reveals why forging into new territory can be so utterly uncomfortable for us, what to do about it, what your family role has to do with your success, and why you should stop thinking!

How to Write Thousands Without Feeling Nervous

write

It’s an amazing thing to have thousands of people read your emails weekly.

It used to frighten me at first, because my mailing list grew so fast, and I had never written to more than one person at a time before. I was so afraid I’d put people off.

But as I went along, I got more and more comfortable, because I shifted from, “Oh no, what if I blow it, what will they think about what I say,” and a whole slew of other fears. I was afraid of what you, the people on my list, thought of me, my work and what I had to say.

How do you sit down and write thousands of people?

People ask me all the time:

  • Isn’t it hard?
  • How do you keep from feeling overwhelmed?
  • How do you know what to write?

I was speaking about this the other day with a friend who also has a large mailing list. We were laughing about how hard it was at first to write these newsletters until we started thinking about it differently.

I told her how I think about my readers and carry them all around with me wherever I go, and she laughed and said, yeah, I do that, too.

Do you care? Really care?

After a couple months of writing my list, I realized how much I really do care about my readers, and how passionate I am about what I do and believe in, and about wanting you to have the very best of anything I can create or make available to you.

I started seeing that, if I didn’t believe in myself
or my work, my readers certainly wouldn’t!

So I asked myself this: if I was Jack Canfield or Oprah or one of those “out-there” people who are so passionate about what they do, what would I write and say?

What results would I want my readers to have?

How could I write about it all so my readers would really get what I was saying and get the Goods from my products and services?

Ahhhh, relief!

As soon as I started writing from that frame of mind, I felt such relief, because I understood that you wouldn’t have signed up for the newsletter if you weren’t attracted to *something* about what you see on my sites.

And I saw that the ones who unsubscribe are not criticizing or mad, they’re just not interested anymore, or feel overwhelmed, and my stuff is low on their priority lists. It’s OK. I stopped taking it personally, and started to get really excited about writing every week about what is important to me with people to who appreciate and get great benefits from it, too.

Cruising…

I take about an hour every day to cruise online, looking for things that tweak my oh-this-is-cool buttons. Stuff from TED.com, funny stuff, stuff from folks who have great programs or ingenious or innovative energy therapies or consciousness-raising ideas and solutions.

And I take the best of those and share them with you. It used to feel like work, long ago. But now it’s fun and I look forward to writing you, because I’m passionate about what I do.

The results I see people get from using the info I share is well worth the time it takes, and I get tremendous pleasure from carrying you around in my heart!

Are you just starting up?

So if you are writing or starting up a newsletter and you don’t know where to begin, start with what you love, what you are passionate about.

Tell your readers a little story like I just did–doesn’t have to be a long, drawn-out thing–and let them know who YOU are. We all crave connection, so give it to us who read you–don’t just tell us you have this or that to sell, week after week, because then it feels like all we are to you is a possible income source.

We want to know about you, what you think, and how your heart feels. Write from there, and your aligned readers will love you and your products and services. Anyone else will unsubscribe, and that’s OK!

red-heart-loveWrite from your heart!

Share yourself and your best offers!

Show us that you really understand and care about your readers!

We will then feel that, and respond accordingly.

“ME? Do Podcasts?” Top Ten Things You Need to KNow

podcaster

I didn’t think I’d ever be interested in podcasting. This is what went through my mind: “Ugh! Too much work over what I’m doing already, I don’t have time, I don’t know how, who’d want to listen to me anyway, bandwidth, where to host – ugh.”

But then I asked myself, if I were truly as committed to serving the lifting of our vibrational field as I thought I was, what more could I do to assist? And guess what I heard my inner voice say? You’re right – podcasting. Otherwise known as Internet Radio.

How does it help me serve?

Ever heard of a little thing called iTunes? How many people go there every day to find music, interviews, messages and other audible material to enjoy and get inspiration? Literally millions.

Did you know you can get your podcast served up by iTunes – for no charge? Nots to mention the other freebie or low-cost podcast directories.

So imagine you have an important message.

You’re a coach, or a preacher, or a healer, or a business leader, or an inspirational speaker. You know as well as I do the value of being able to get in front of people. Why would you deprive yourself of this one incredible way to get the word out – your word?

What you need to know if you want to do podcasting

  1. How to create and launch your show
  2. How being a talk show host can be a great platform for you and your business
  3. What type of format is best for you
  4. How long your show should be
  5. How to record, post and edit your show with ease
  6. The easiest way to create content for your show that will keep your listeners coming back for more
  7. How to get the guest of your dreams
  8. The fastest, easiest and simplest way to attract and build a worldwide audience
  9. When you should do a free vs. paid internet radio show or podcast
  10. How to make a profit from your show even when you’re first beginning

So imagine yourself able to speak with the people you love and respect, from whom you have gotten inspiration and motivation. Who are they? Start making lists now!

And who do you want to reach with your message? Write it down!

And what are some topics you like to expound upon? Write them down!

Now, you’ve already started on your podcast journey – what’s stopping you from going full-tilt?

Go for it!

Imagine yourself five years from now having NOT gone for it – how does that feel? Ugh!, right? You don’t need that! Start living and expanding your most outrageous, fun, daring and beautiful Dream right now!

Why? Because when you do, you inspire the rest of us to keep going. You give us permission, simply by being who you are at your core best, to do the same. We want you! We want your gift – stop hiding it in the closet! All it’s doing there is gathering dust and moths! It’ll die in there! Bring it out and give it life!

You never know how you affect people.

Everywhere you go, even if you don’t say one word to anyone, you affect others. Just by how you walk, dress, eat, speak, move, drive, interact. You could inspire some shy person today to stand tall just by holding your head high as you walk into the grocery store.

Imagine how it would be if your podcasts got out to not hundreds, not thousands, but millions of hungry listeners who crave your words and message!

aloha –

Transform Your Negative Feelings to Positive Creative Power

doubt-to-happy

A couple of weeks ago, I was amazed that about 80% of the people I worked with were dealing with various shades of “I can’t.”

Here are some of the beliefs people had:
I can’t because if I do I’ll lose my family.
I can’t because I don’t have the money.
I can’t because I might succeed.
If I do I’ll be ridiculed within the scientific community.
I can’t because I’ll make so much money the government or someone will take it way.

Thing, is, once you get at the underlying messages all these fears carry, you’ll have the courage, skill and knowledge to laugh and do what you choose.

Here’s an example….

“Joe” said, “My family wants me to stay in my job as a house-painter because it has a steady salary. I hate it, and I know I can be successful running a landscaping business.

“I’m good at it, but I just don’t have the credit to ask for a loan, and I can’t afford to buy the equipment I need. I’m afraid my family will think I’m nuts, that I’m endangering them, and I’ll never hear the end of it from my father-in-law if I fail.”

I asked him how big his fear of failure was on a scale of 1 to 10. “20!” he said. “It makes my knees weak to think of my wife screaming at me and my kids being disappointed in me.”

And how big was his fear of asking the bank or someone in his family for a loan. Off the charts. “I know they don’t think my ideas are worth anything.”

And his fear that he couldn’t provide for his kids?
Another 20.

I had him imagine this picture: a giant wheelbarrow full of all his fear. Two 20s and an off-the-charts overflow of all this I-CAN’T energy. Not to mention the weak-in-the-knees feeling, the queasy belly, the sweat down his back.

“I hate it!” he said, as he described it to me. “I don’t want to feel this way! I want to do what my heart loves, and what I know how to do really well! I’m furious!”

We added that to the wheel-barrow, too. He then made it into a dump truck to be able to hold it all.

I knew he expected me to take him through some tapping with EFT (the Emotional Freedom Techniques – info at EFTBooks.com ).

But I waited a bit, and had him really feel the energy inside all those fears, anger and frustrations. This is a bit different from most EFT sessions where you are ordinarily coached to not suffer through the intensity.

Instead, I wanted to point out to him the enormity of the energy he was carrying around.

I asked him, “What if all that energy you’re feeling, plus the energy it takes to resist and hate feeling that way, was available to you for creativity, confidence and power?”

What a concept, no? He’d never thought of it that way.

“It’d be huge!” he said. “Man, what a waste it is that I’ve used it like this!”

So now we tapped, starting with the Karate Chop Point. Here are a couple diagrams of the face and torso tapping points if you’re unfamiliar with EFT.

We said as we tapped: even though:
I’m afraid of failure
my wife will scream at me and call me a dummy
and a no-good
I’ll feel small and useless and
I’m afraid I’ll start drinking again
my father-in-law thinks I’m just a jerk
I’ll never have his approval
I’ve never had it anyway
I hate feeling this way
I hate how stupid I feel
I feel so unsupported
and angry at them all
especially myself
I’m so afraid to let go and trust that my heart is right
I feel like such a chicken
no one appreciates me
I’m afraid to start stepping out of my job

Pretty real feelings. Hard to carry around for so long.

It turned out, after we got through all that, that he did have occasional invitations from people to do some landscaping for them, but he’d been too afraid to take them.

So we went though fear of calling them back, fear of rejection, fear of them laughing at him – until he finally started laughing and said, “I get it! All I need to do is take one fear at a time and turn it around into usable energy. I can do that!”

At the end of our session, I had him look at the Fear Dump Truck again.

“It’s gone! It’s a huge mountain of energy now!” he exclaimed. “It looks like new snow, clean and sparkling, and I can use it any time I want!”

He saw himself running and jumping right into the heart of the mountain, surrounding himself with energy and power and confidence, and allowing his heart to fill with clarity and enthusiasm for his dream.

Joe called me last night. He had me laughing as he told me he’d realized that he’d been so closed down that he had ignored his wife saying she wished he would “just get out of that stupid painting job.” Fear makes us blind!

He said, “I never even heard her say it! She told me she’s been wanting me to do something else because I’ve been so unhappy I’ve been a jerk. No wonder my father-in-law has hated me!”

Take your fear, anger, grief, blame, shame, self-pity, resentment, and self-hatred energy, pile it up where you can “see” it, do some tapping and clean it off, polish it up, and use it for your dreams. It works.

Don’t tell me you don’t have any of that! WE ALL do. It’s a gift! Think of the power in it! Hunt for every inch of it and turn it inside out.

If you don’t know how to use EFT, I invite you to get the freebie book at EFTBooks.com – you’ll get a complementary audio to introduce you to how to use it.

You’ll be glad you learned EFT – it’s a tool you can use for yourself,your friends, family and loved ones, co-workers, dogs, cats…anywhere anytime for the rest of your life. Transform your backwards energy into power, confidence and pure creativity. Please.

aloha,
Angela Treat Lyon
