The Lazy Days of Summer
It's been well over 100 degrees (like 108!) the last week here. I don't know how you react when it gets like that, but I tend to slow down and take it a little easier. I am always thankful that Bub's mom was thoughtful enough to give him a July 1 birthday (Yikes! How did we get to July already???)because we always take the opportunity to celebrate for a few days.
We'll be checking into Westward Look Resort for 3 days to be pampered and indulged! Daughter Dawn is a massage therapist there and I am going to get some treatments! Lily will come play in the pool and Bub will probably beat me in tennis every day (he is much happier when that is the outcome!)
I hope you have planned a nice respite or vacation with people you adore. With the 4th of July in the middle of the week-it gives you an excuse, if you need it, to take 5 days off!!! And, if you haven't been thinking of doing that because business is slow, dontcha know that when you plan a vacation-all sorts of things start happening! AND, that day before vacation is one of the most productive of the year! So get productive...take time off! And have some fun.
And, please read the Resources and Shameless Plugs at the bottom if what you really want right now is not vacation but to RAMP UP your business!!!!!
The Law of Attraction (Principles 15-21)
The past 2 weeks I have shared with you the first 14 Principles developed in 1997 by Thomas Leonard, the founder of www.CoachU.com. I participated with him (and about 200 others) in developing these 28 Principles of The Law of Attraction. Thomas's book, The Portable Coach, written in 1998 outlined these 28 Principles.
If you missed either one, you can find them on my Newletter Page in the Archives (and all my past newsletters there as well!) Next week, I will share the last seven. I hope these have given you some insights into how to become more attractive. Notice that many of these steps are about YOU. The Law of Attraction works when you have taken care of the junk in your life that might be repulsive! Summer is a good time to simplify!

Tolerate Nothing - Putting up with things isn’t good for anyone. Realize the cost/the benefits of being toleration-free. Here is where to start: Make a list of 50. Put EVERYTHING on it: people, situations, clothes that don't fit, dust, etc. Identify why you are tolerating-the benefits. What are the hard costs? Soft costs? Start to tell people what you are doing. Then get support from them. Handle 1 toleration a day. Notice the changes you have to make. You may experience a sense of loss as well as relief. |

Show Others How To Please You - Train those around you to give you what you want. Tell them before it becomes a problem. Make your preferences clear. Don’t expect them to know how to please you. People are not mind-readers and often they have a difference view of what would please you. I have my gift lists for my birthday and Christmas on the refrigerator and every year get the things I want! |

Endorse Your Worst Weaknesses - When you can accept the worst parts of yourself, you are more accepting of others. What is your worst weakness? Is it the flip side of a strength? What does this weakness tell you about yourself? Maybe there are others with this weakness that could be a community for you :>) What ways has this weakness helped you get to where you are? Focus on your strengths-delegate your weaknesses. By endorsing your weakness, you become 100% responsible. |

Sensitize Yourself - How are you numbing yourself? Alcohol? Drugs? TV? Overeating? Identify where you do this. Eliminate the situations that cause you to want to numb-out. Do you need therapy? Notice what is occurring inside and out. Let yourself feel rather than react emotionally. |

See How Perfect the Present Really Is - The present is all there is. Everything has gotten you to here and here is the path to what’s next. Perfect doesn’t mean you have to like it or you have chosen it-simply it is what it is. It is where you evolve into what’s next. |

Work on these 7 this week, and I believe you will see a real shift in the lightness you feel! The tolerations, especially, can drain lots and lots of energy. In coaching we know that working on the "who" rather than the "what" produces BIG shifts and keeps you out of the "more, harder, faster" lifestyle. Relax this week, accept how perfect the present is, tell others what you want, drop the things that numb you, clean up your environment and any integrity issues that are zapping energy and HAVE FUN!!!!!!!
