Find Your Freedom Series Episode Five: M.O.V.E. or Be Moved. It’s Always Your Choice.
Hello and welcome to Working for Spirit podcast. You can find all of my podcast episodes at workingforspiritpodcast.com. I am so excited to have you here today for another episode in my Find your Freedom series.
Today I'm going to talk to you about this whole concept of taking inspired action and moving. The podcast episode is called M.O.V.E. or Be Moved. It's always your choice and that's exactly what it is. Some years ago I talked about several decades ago, I turned my life into an experiment for the law of attraction. The secret movie came along, the book I was just absorbed in it for me like probably for a lot of you. It was not new information. It was like I was waking up to something that I already knew deep inside for eons.
This wisdom that just felt right and sounded right. I was remembering things that I already knew. So as you open to this as you're listening to my podcast, as you're watching me, as you're filling yourself full of the teachings and trainings that ancient wisdom, you will open more and more and that is why sometimes you can hear the same thing.
Yet, you will hear something different in it and something will stand out to you because you're ready for it. That's why I tell you one of the success principles is to just let this pour into you. Let me, let other spiritual teachers who are living this who are walking this every day.
You'll uplevel into new awareness and new ways of living this, of being and doing and having this. For instance I've been working on this for years and years and last year, about this exact time of year. I didn't even realize I took an inspired action that came as an unexpected and an unknown and a surprise, I said yes, it was uncomfortable. It was inconvenient.
I didn't understand so it was a little illogical like why now, why this, my mind wanted to talk me out of it. We were still in the pandemic somewhat and I was going to travel to New York City so it took travel. It took a very nice hotel. It took a price, a ticket to a live event, and it has changed my life so much in the last year.
The new coach I hired, the people I met that have become colleagues, clients, friends, journeying, house, all of that, and I want you to realize and at that time I was being called to really get into the nuance of the manifesting even more and that's what I've been doing the past year now and sharing that in teaching that I started this podcast.
You will find all kinds of teaching and training series on here. I'm talking about it. I'm doing a lot of shifting in the past year. I have done manifesting at a level that I had never done before. The most amazing things came in were people, even people who know me well and even my coach were surprised.
So what I'm sharing with you now is not your kindergarten level. I will always start and I'm not saying kindergarten level in a negative way. We have to start and get the basics because at first your mind will want to fight you on some of this. I will always give you those foundational pieces and I will come back and back and back again to the guiding principles. I also want you to be aware as you move forward with me this year that I just had and the nuances that I have been perfecting and tweaking and sharing with you.
I also really quick want you to know that I have this amazing free training series coming up. If you want to join get live, if you want all the details about it just go to metaphysicalupgrade.com.
This is some of that next level work. I want you to go there, read about it, register for free, to be there live or to receive the replays.
Now let's get into it. M.O.V.E. or Be Moved. It's always your choice. Some years ago, I really realized to stop working and now I've got to teach it to other people. So for the first time I've had to put words to the things I was doing a lot of us just like our gifts. I say, I don't know I just do this thing. Unfortunately, that's why sometimes we don't charge or we don't charge enough for those gifts because they come easy to us.
We don't realize the value if you're going to use your gifts and teach them to others. You have to start learning how to talk about them. It was downloaded to me and I really saw the word move because of what I realized when I wrote my first book, when I got out there speaking on stages and teaching and working with my clients.
What I own is helping people take inspired action, helping people move, they leave jobs, they leave places they don't love, they move to their dream locations. They leave relationships that are no longer serving them. They get into new relationships, they make money, they travel, they change their whole lives.
I started realizing and really oh that action space. My point of view above all else is that too many people never take any action for what they say they want most. Then they wonder why they don't have it. Yeah, and it would keep me up at night because the more that I was seeing and I was seeing it and I wanted you all to understand.
So I started working with the M.O.V.E is moved, and I use it now for years. I've taught it in courses. I speak about it on stage, a lot. That M stands for make a decision. Nothing happens until you make a decision. Then a decision has not been made until an action has been taken. O- ownership, Own it 100%, no second guessing, no self doubting. Sometimes you've got to strengthen this muscle and you'll fall in and out and in and out of it.
Then it's time to visualize it. Spend five minutes every day visualizing what it is that you want, need and desire. How do you feel to get to the essence? Remember, guiding principle “leave the how’s to the universe”. How are you going to feel? What do you feel like? Where are you living? Who are you with? What are you doing? Where are you working? What are you eating? What are you drinking? What are you driving? What do you see? All of those things.
Visualize every day and at first you'll be creating it. Then the vision will start having a license and own and things will pop in and show you what's possible, what's there for you and as it moves closer and closer to you, it will start showing them out of the field into your life.
Then E- execute. Then we take the inspired action and that's key. Many of my clients come to me and they share that they have this big thing they feel they are called to do in the world. They think they have gifts. They want more fulfillment in their lives. They're experiencing exactly this longing that I knew for so many years before I began living my own life of what I call significance and success.
This is an important balance and it felt so for another day because I have to have both of these together. At one point that created success, but the purpose was not tied to it. The significance was not there and it didn't fulfill me and it didn't serve me. I truly first built a life of significance but didn't have the access and that didn't sustain me. There was a time when I wasn't even sure that what I wanted was possible. So caught up in all my obligations and responsibilities and all the roles I was playing.
It didn't even occur to me yet that I had created it, all of it. All that busyness in my life, I had created it myself. Then I used it as an excuse not to have what I wanted. Be what I wanted and do what I want. What I want to share with you today is that it all starts with making a decision. Yes, you make a decision to create a change, you decide to move forward. First few steps in this direction can feel like wading in quicksand, standing with.
Imagine you're suddenly changing course and you're turning a huge ship, a giant jet flying around. As you build momentum you're uplifted into a new energy and everything begins to move in your favor. The key is you have to take the first step. You'll hear me say this over and over again. It's not going to change.
You have to take the first step before everything shows up. This is where a lot of my clients get tripped up. Because they're waiting, waiting for better timing, waiting for more money, waiting for more security in a relationship, waiting for closure in a situation and any number of things they perceive with that tension with all parts of it. You can't put it aside. It's all part of it.
We're talking about your whole life here. All those things will get addressed when you start moving. In fact, a lot of it will begin to take care of itself in what feels like a very natural way. It will move with you. It drives me crazy to see my clients and students and potential clients and students up here in this place.
Nothing happens here except that it eats away at you. The best time is always found. You hear it. So why don't you believe it? What are you afraid of? Now what are you meant to take out into the world today? Those are the two aspects competing for your time, energy and resources. They are battling for it. Which one when? Whichever one you feed.
Energy never stand still. You're always either moving towards or away from what you desire. You make a decision even with your indecision and inaction. You make a decision to put off your highest good to turn a deaf ear or a blind eye to what is calling you to come forward.
You are here for a purpose. You are a part of the plan. The life of your dreams, a life you love that support you is within reach. You have to create it every day. Consistently, boldly, relentlessly. It all starts when you make a decision. The first step in my M.O.V.E, move process for moving forward in any area of your life.
What decision can you make for your highest good today? Know yourself. Whenever you are thinking about making a big life transition. There are really three ways to go about it. Knowing yourself well can make a difference in the amount of stress you experience during this time as well as the amount of success you are able to create.
I talk a lot about taking honest inventory and this is one of those times when the payoff for doing this consistently can be huge. You want to pay attention both to the actions you are taking and not taking into the energy you are caring for.
When working with clients who come to me ready to make a move or at least considering the possibility. I take some time with them first to explore their hardwiring and their mindset. I have had clients who have successfully taken big leaps on the spot without much looking back at all and they've been able to move forward very quickly without experiencing a lot of fallout.
The energy they are holding is that as they go off the side of that cliff, either the road will rise up to meet them or they will be grow wings and be taught how to fly. That is where you want to be holding the energy that as you go off the side of that cliff, either the road will rise up to meet you or you will grow wings and be taught how to fly.
The key to making this work is they immediately get into massive action and stay in massive action. Know yourself. If you are not a risk taker, the stress you may cause yourself in taking that big leap could work against the positive energy. You need to just keep swimming. For these clients, I suggest they determine what I call a tolerate. They are using up so much valuable time and energy spinning and how much they don't like where they are and how unhappy they are and wondering when they will change and they get into a lot of asking how things might change for them. This works, setting a tolerate date by setting a date with yourself.
The absolute maximum time you're willing to tolerate these circumstances, you stop the mind endless chatter about it and you satisfy its need to know. Now remember the mind is a tool, it's not a master servant. Now you can put into work. You have given it a go. Your mind will look for everything to satisfy you and that goal.
Now everything will begin to conspire to work for you toward that goal and you're no longer working against yourself as you shift from the negative energy to the positive energy. You'll begin to pay differently and to do things differently and things start to come together for your benefit. Very often people end up coming out of their undesirable circumstances much sooner than the date they set and it happens in a much more natural way.
Remember, the more you can leave the how’s to the universe. Then there are those who continue to work with the positive energy of their growing desire. They are visualizing it, feeling it and sending their order out to the universe. But they are not taking any action and they have not set any goals.
What most often happens here is that as the desire grows stronger, and the feelings associated with it become a part of who you are. The universe begins to work in your favor in response to your ever increasing desire. I want you to really get this, it has to, that is the law. But because you are not taking action, you are not creating space, and you're not letting go of what no longer serves you. This is what you see, you end up seeing here. The rug being ripped out from under them. This is when you're suddenly forced out of a job, a home, a relationship or a geographical location.
Each of these is a choice. The more responsibility you're willing to take, the more power you are given over your own life. It is all about becoming conscious and aware and taking action. What is my next step? You only need to know the next step to take the next step. Here's another place people get tripped up. I caught myself doing it a few weeks ago.
Too often people come to me for coaching for support and guidance. They are just sitting and spinning in place because they don't know all the steps and so they take no steps. This not only happened to me but I helped a colleague and friend see her way through it. I will tell you the movements that has happened in the past few weeks because she couldn't receive that evidence of what she wanted, because she hadn't done her part.
You always have to go first. I love when I can talk to you about this. I can tell you the principles and the theories and the teachings. But when I can give you these real world examples. Why isn't it happening? I'm not sure the universe is going to support me. I'm not going to have what I have. But she ran to the end and wanted the universe to produce the evidence of the end.
The minute you take action and do your part. You energetically change which energetically changes everything. You understand that? Let that land. I work with both legs leap first and baby steppers. I want you to know it doesn't matter which one you are or what you're most comfortable doing right now. It's all about taking that next step. That is the only way that steps beyond that can and will show themselves to you.
Do not waste any more time sitting still. You are ready to get moving forward in the direction of your dreams and desires to create a better life now. Know that there are no mistakes. Know that you cannot fail. You have a tool course correction that you can use as you are learning to read feedback from the universe.
Get into a quiet, reflective or meditative state and ask yourself that part of you that already knows the answer. What is my next step? Remember, you only need to know the next step to take the next step. Imagine if you're planning on driving from the West Coast to the East Coast. You have a map so you know the direction you want to move in. You're moving forward and you have a destination where you would like to arrive.
Even with a map you can not know and plan for everything that will show up along the way. You have many many options. You trust yourself to make this journey. You are prepared. You have made a decision to go and you are committed. This is the energy it takes. Imagine now that you're traveling at night. You can only see as far as your headlights shine out in front of you and you make the journey this way all night long.
You cannot of course see all the way from the West Coast to the East Coast. Every step you take, every mile you travel, everything is changing in every moment. Every decision you make, every choice point and the choice you make changes everything. People are coming and going and may or may not cross your path. Depending on the decisions and choices you make.
You have a choice of routes to take. You get to determine your speed and whether you want to get there faster, take a more scenic route, whether you want to stop along the way and visit people or places to learn things or simply rest. You may need to pay attention to your body along the way and do things to accommodate yourself.
You would not question in the middle of this journey. Will I still end up at my destination? Will I be able to get to the East Coast? You would not doubt and turn back out of fear. You would keep moving forward. If you got stuck, you would get help. If you got lost, you would stop and get some better directions. This journey is much the same. As you move along, you're changing every minute with every person and thing that crosses your path. With every experience you have, all that you encounter, you are different halfway through the journey that you were at the beginning.
You have seen different things, thought different things, learn different things, experienced different things, and felt different things. Most likely even made some changes in your plans along the way. The longer the journey from here to there, the more this will happen for you. Delight in the journey. There's so much to experience along the way.
Be excited for your journey. It's a gift for you. Your journey is now and always has been. You have never not been on your journey on your path. People want to talk about that so often. I'm not on my path. I’m not on my journey. Yes you are, you can't not be. No matter the you turns the distractions that turning backs, the side trips, and the stops you have made along the way your journey.
The more you can enjoy the journey and being with yourself on this journey. Supporting yourself unconditionally the better it will be for you. What is my next step? Ask yourself this. Remember, even if you're on the right track, you'll get run over if you just sit there. I've always liked that.
Here's the important part of this and every successful person will tell you when you receive that next step. You need to move into action. Take that next step because once you do, then the next one and the next one and the next one will unfold. Maybe you've heard the saying remember even if you're on the right track, you'll get run over if you just sit there. I've been there hesitating not moving, not taking action, stopping in my sock.
So many of my clients come to me when they are exactly in this place. They get clarity and they experienced desire. Then they keep getting in their own way and just sit there while everything around them is trying to come together to some more of them. If they would just move that seems to be the place that gets people to take real physical 3D action to manifest in this physical world what they want.
I'm sad to say I've seen some of my clients and students and I've experienced myself that caused me 2 by 4 come swinging around while I'm just sitting there. I call this aI call this a “brick-to-the-head” moment. I have learned I don't want it or need brick to the head moment. The best part of this is that you just need to take consistent baby steps in alignment with what you have told the universe and yourself that you want. It's very effective. The baby steps can be profound. Just don't stop the momentum by standing still. Act. Assess, Adjust.
Every day ask yourself what is my next step? Ask yourself and ask your guidance and when you get an answer, act on it. Do this every day. Do not miss a day. The more you work with this, the more quickly and frequently the answers will come.
Here's something to know about this to do this every day. Often you won't receive the answer right away while you're sitting there waiting for it. Sometimes we have to stop trying so hard. Like when you're trying to remember a name so you can tell someone and then suddenly you can't come up with it at all. So do the asking and go on with your business for the day.
It will come in watch for it. Everything that shows expects it will come in for you. I want to share with you now. These daily practices, the spiritual practices, the self care routine where you start doing this on a more regular basis. So at first this is like all these moving parts and I have to think about this and I do this.
Then you start constricting and asking why isn't this working? Why isn't this working? It's like building muscles. It's a trust journey. I always talked about that press journey times three. Trust yourself, trust Spirit and trust the process. In that way this is something for you to start integrating everything you do in your life, your daily life, needs to match.
It is when what you are doing, what you are saying, what you are thinking and what you are feeling comes into harmony with what you want, need and desire. Yes, it is a piece for you. So I want to applaud you for sitting right now listening to my podcast.
Those of you that tell me you're listening and listening and listening and reading my books and doing all these things. I do this all the time. Whenever I'm driving, I'm listening to my mentors pouring into me. I'm listening and I'm reading all the time. I'm reflecting and then I'm putting it into practice and putting it into action.
It's time for you to move forward in some area of your life and apply what I've just talked to you about. This episode today has been part of the Find your freedom series. I've got more episodes coming to you. So stay tuned. You can find it all at workingforspiritpodcast.com.
