Shifting our focus has a lot to do with shifting our mindset. We have to break the habits of being ourselves in order to see change. In a current book I'm reading by Dr. Joe Dispenza, Breaking the Habits of Being Yourself, the introduction and chapter 1 allowed me to share this tidbit of information with you. In order to see different results, we have to change the way we see. Our behaviors will change and our mind will develop new ways to send and receive input based on your shift.
When it relates to this episode, I open up sharing a lot about myself as a business owner. I learned that behaviors and mindset, impacted the world around me, including my business. In my earlier years of being a small business owner, I did things that jumped the curbs. I purchased an LLC, business license, obtained my EIN, without a clear vision. To be quite honest, that wasn't bad either! I call that faith. What I learned was my I pursued my company from the lens of grad school education, trending Instagram profiles, and ignorance to myself. I didn't fully grasp my superpower until I unlearned behaviors that told me how to strategize. I learned the core of my personality that's never changing or is not dependent upon if things are well or not. I learned what was great for my soul and I ended breaking the World's perspective and embracing the supernatural of my brand by listening to what already was in me.
I was a creative long before a Master's Degree. I've been creating all of my life. From beatboxing with my brother, to photography classes in high school, to singing in choirs, and marching in band with my clarinet. I've been creating my life around me since I found my voice to choose my friends, classes and course of my life. I've been filming and editing videos since my days of playing the Sims, so why did I allow the pressures get to me.
I had to shift my focus. I had to change the way I saw myself, my Innermost, and what's around me. I had to break the habits of trends, yoke my eyes to the things that are above and not in my peripheral vision, become narrow in my vision and walk, shifted from a 70mm to a 20mm lens to regain the appreciation of the things that truly matters.
Money is not my driving factor, it's never been and will never be. I found fulliment in the smiles and reactions of people who I served. I found a trend that I help those to help others. I don't brand vain brands (anymore) but brands that give back.
Now, tune in and insert yourself in my shoes as I share the way I shifted my focus.
