Are your goals working, are you stuck? How long have you been working on that goal but still not got there. Maybe it's time to re-evaluate, to look at this from the outside and notice what we can learn. Maybe your following goals of other people or being put off from taking up a goal due to the beliefs of others. Let me share some personal experiences and then some ways how you can get back the motivation to achieve what you REALLY want. Let's DREAM - CREATE -EXCEL Enjoy and feel brightly.

Following on from podcast#62 here's a little experience or a way to set yourself up for reflection and a way to reflect from different perspectives. I think you'll find this fun and curiously will learn a lot more about you. And if you're put off by the word exercise then don't be and use that as something to reflect upon ;0) Enjoy Paul ps let me know how you get on please

Like the opening 'Drop'??? Reflections - what am I talking about? well to reflect, to think about our emotions and then more importantly to reflect and learn AND then act. So I've looked in the mirror and found a personal reflection and decided to share it with you. So what could you reflect on and how? Well never one to leave you hanging I'll give you my two pennies worth on different hows. But it's not just about reflecting, one of the most important things is setting your intention and being in the right state of mind. The state of mind I'm using is curiosity (you can substitute any other that you feel would be better for you) and I'll show you how to do both. Try it this way then adapt it to your intuitive way and make it better. If you do please share your changes with me so I can let everyone else know. Look out for #62.1 the exercise that makes sense of it all Enjoy and feel brightly.

Let's use the right state to find what we want, to learn and grow. Some use states such as anger to give movement, momentum and that can work but I think there are better states to enter. One that I really think will work is curiosity so lets have a chat for five minutes and learn how we can enter into that state at will. Enjoy and feel brightly.

Yep we've all got them and we only see then when we really look for them until then we seem oblivious - blind spots. Not the blind spots that every one has in their eyes the ones to our behaviors and to our beliefs and thoughts. Lets spend five or so minutes having a look and see what we can find. Enjoy and feel brightly.

Firstly what an intro! Did you like it? Goals and wishes - ever felt like giving up? that feeling of failure, loss and demotivated. Compared to how we felt when we first thought of these wishes and goals and the feeling now it's a bummer! isn't it? It can effect so many other areas of your life too! Or have you ever got your goal only to find it wasn't what you really expected? Let me tell you about a couple of my own personal experiences. If you would like it I'll also share a few ways to make sure this doesn't happen, a couple of tools, processes that just might make the difference. Remember 'Jenny Journal' as she will become important and more importantly let's have and make this whole thing fun! ;0) Enjoy and feel brightly.

From the feeling of the wish fulfilled let's move on to how we use this feeling. A small step, a baby step using one of your goals/wishes/desires to get into that feeling using all the sights, sounds, tastes, smells and then the feeling. Walt Disney did this and look what he made come true! Enjoy and shine brightly.

What is this feeling I keep mentioning? Let's give a little credit to Neville Goddard for this and whether you believe in the law of attraction or not it doesn't matter because whatever you believe knowing this feeling will change your life. Take a moment to ensure what you want is really what you want, that your dreams and goals will really fulfill you. Enjoy and feel brightly.

Why when we try to improve ourselves or take time out for ourselves to learn new things do we feel guilty? Who are we to be better than our peers or relations? A common feeling that we experience in this genre for all the wrong reasons. Let's have 5 minutes to think about it and what we can do about it because on the next longer podcast we'll develop this even deeper but not in the way you think. When you do change the way you feel about yourself - Your self esteem - you begin to be and do what your here for and that felling just gets better and better and everyone around you gets it too! I really hope you enjoy these 5 minute quickies and the longer podcast and more importantly grow to and beyond your potential. Shine Brightly Paul Please share

The 5 minute Quickie podcast and let's discuss and think about what happens after setting our intention. Everyone in this field talks about how important setting your intention is - if they're not talking about how important this is well Hmmmm.....??????? But even if they are talking about setting your intention then what? So many say you have to set your intention - commitment - Yep everyone says that. Do they tell what to do having set your intention because without the next step intention flies away like wishes in the clouds. In the next 5 minutes or so lets discover what the next step, the next simple step is and become a master of your dreams, wishes and goals! Have a listen and I'll tell you my thoughts and suggestions. I think you'll find it interesting and hopefully some food for thought. Shine brightly Paul Please share if you enjoy

Digging deeper into how and why we feel the way we do - Why because we have a choice. We, you and I, choose to feel the way we do. Choose the emotions that we either like or dislike. Not that I'm saying you choose consciously to feel negative, it's an unconscious process. Which means we have to dive into that realm to find the solution, are you ready to dive? So if you're feeling negative and we have the ability to choose then why not choose to feel different. The thing is if we try to change from one emotion to another and they are too far apart it can be really difficult. This is where our digging deeper comes in and I'll share with you how I overcame this dilemma from my personal experience. As usual I won't leave you hanging saying 'It's alright for you Paul but I don't know how'. I will explain how you can learn what this #negative emotion is trying to do for you - yes there will be a positive intention behind it - and how to change it to something better until you get to feel the way you want to. Let's go through this together and learn to change and be the way we want to be and do because you can all you have to have is the imagination of how you want to feel, be and do! I would love to hear of your successes and you can email me at [email protected] or go through the website www.paulclough.co.uk where there is a contact form in the top left - Yay! Please enjoy and shine brightly and share this to your friends that you feel it could help. Let's get into that generative learning. Paul

Here's my challenge to you, a personal challenge to do the best you can do and find that best in everything you do. That's right the best of you in everything you do even the boring things or even to the work you dislike and want to change. yes I believe you can find the best in everything. Let's talk together how we can do this and notice when you consciously set your intention your unconscious mind will follow through. I wonder what it would be like to have more fun than you can stand and thoroughly enjoy yourself in anything you do or even a dreaded HAVE to do. Please enjoy our chat and shine Brightly Paul

Why would you want a balanced life? I can't think of anything more boring! In the next 5 or so minutes I'll let you into my thoughts and hopefully give you food for thought. Live in harmony and shine brightly Paul

A warning to all our dreams and goals!!!!! The first step towards failure can be so innocuous. It's so easy to take that step and then the next step becomes easy and then before you know it we're not doing the things that create the life we want, our goals and saying "if only" So this may be about 5 minutes long but may the most important 5 minutes of your life. Enjoy and shine brightly and make your dreams a reality. Paul

We all want something for ourselves - this is a self development podcast which helps you get that something.
