Empower Newsletter – February 2021
| Welcome to the February 2021 edition of the Empower Newsletter. This month the focus is on ‘how knowing exactly what you want’ is the secret to getting it.

Do you know? |
What you are looking for!
Have you ever said you want something and next thing you know it magically appears right in front of you?
It doesn’t matter what it is. It could be that you decide you want to create more of a work/life balance; you may want to find a new friend with a particular quality; or it could be that you want to improve your health.
Whatever it is is not the important thing. However, what is important is knowing what you want. If you don’t know what you want, you will continue on your way, which is fine, but in establishing what you want it will move you forward to where you want to be faster with less speed humps along the way.
It’s like taking the smooth fast freeway rather than taking the bumping slow dirt road detour.
You just have to know what it is that you want!
Are you ready to open your eyes and see the opportunities that are right in front of you now? If yes, work out exactly what it is you want moving forward and the universe will do the rest! Well actually it will be you who makes it happen as you will now have your eyes wide open to see it when it appears!
You see the thing is, what you decide you want in your life has always been there, you just haven’t seen or been open to it.
The example I like to use is when we get a new car, we start seeing that exact same car and even the colour everywhere. And the fact is, they have always been there! It’s just that you weren’t looking for them, but now that your focus has changed you are now noticing them right in front of you.
Not knowing what you want is the hard part. Once you know what you want it will magically appear because you will start seeing and noticing the opportunities that were always right in front of you.
It’s like, ‘you always find what you are looking for.’ If you are looking for an excuse, you will find that excuse and on the slip side if you are looking for a reason to change, you will find that too.
What are you looking for?

Quotes of the Month |
“For the past 33 years, I have looked in the mirror every morning and asked myself: ‘If today were the last day of my life, would I want to do what I am about to do today?’ And whenever the answer has been ‘No’ for too many days in a row, I know I need to change something.”
~ Steve Jobs ~
“If you know what you want, if you’ve made up your mind, if you can see it, feel it, and move toward it in some way every single day……. It has to happen.”
~ Mike Dooley ~
