1. FEATURE ARTICLE: "Money - The Lie Revealed"
Summary:
It's probably not what you're after at all (and you think it is).
When you're clear on WHY, and HOW MUCH, getting money can be easier,
and much more fun. Focus on the REASON for money! What lifestyle
do you want? How much is enough?
Suppose you got clear today that your ultimate lifestyle would
be to sail around the world visiting exotic ports. Would you work
20-30 years to make that a reality? What about having it right
now, and skipping the 20-30 years of work? Would it be smarter
to quit your job and get a job on a luxury yacht traveling the
world? Is money as necessary as we were told growing up?
Have you fallen for the Trap?
We're trained and conditioned that making money and accumulating
wealth is the game. Many backpackers have learned a different
one.
It is possible to live for NOW enjoying everything there is to
enjoy now, rather than in the future. But what about the future
you ask????!!
Well, tomorrow never comes. You're always here.
The trap to watch is saving hard; working hard for a lifestyle
that you could have RIGHT NOW if you chose! I realised that what
I would do if I had a lot of money, is to live in New York for
six months of each year, and on Sydney Harbour the rest of the
year. Summer all year round! When I realized I don't have to wait
for this, I can have it right now, I stopped thinking someday
my life will be complete.
So
write down your ideal lifestyle the one you're working so hard
for.
The one you would have if you won the lottery next week. If you
didn't do it when you read last months issue Design your Perfect
Lifestyle, you can still view or download the Perfect Lifestyle
program at www.life-coaching-resource.com/design-your-life.htm
Do you already have these things now? If YES then you have NOTHING
to do! Your life is perfect start realising it!
Can you have these right now? If YES then its time to have them.
No waiting. Live for now!
If NO, then whats standing in the way? If you need more money,
then follow this process:
a) write down the reason you need more money
b) how much is needed for that and by when (the numbers)?
c) how will I get there (income expenses = savings).
Decrease expenses game? Increase income game?
Conclusion
Get clear on your ultimate lifestyle or goal. See if you can have
it without money, and right now! If money really is necessary,
get clear on HOW MUCH is needed. Only THEN, once clear on WHY
and HOW MUCH, are you in a position to get that money, and to
enjoy getting it!
Beware sacrificing everything now, for a future that is unclear,
may not make you happy anyway, and which you make not even live
to see!

3. THE PERSONAL TOUCH
A productive month! Organising a 6-month move to the US is not
trivial. I seem to have almost handled the major issues: e.g.
renting the Sydney apartment during the Olympics, and organizing
a US business visa (I'll be coaching from New York). The next
Newsletter issue should come from New York.
I've hired an assistant to help with newsletter distribution and
link exchanges, and to develop a fun publicity campaign around
coaching. (We'd love to hear from you if you have a PR background).
It also feels good to see my clients having some wonderful breakthroughs,
and some participants in the Become A Coach Program doing MUCH
better in their first three months of practice than I ever did!
Revisiting the world of dating is great fun, and I've made some
wonderful new friends in the coaching world.
