Invite the Magic with Annie

Live a richer life NOW! A series on experiencing more richness in your day to day. This episode talks about what if the joy you feel is enough? What if you don't have to do anything with it, what if appreciating IS the gift? Tune in for more!

Reinvention, opportunities to see things differently. We are all blessed to have moments where we get a gift of a new perspective.

How to observe the emotional roller coaster rather than being on the emotional roller coaster. Watch the emotions go on the coaster instead of thinking you are the emotion.

Trade expectation for appreciation and your whole life changes in that moment! Blaming the enviornment, others or yourself doesn't change anything. You can change your bluebrint or change something, but don't blame. If you can't be happy in the every day you won't be happy in the majestic. Tony Robbins and oprah quote!

Annie talks about an underutilized power we all have that we don't use deliberately. Visual rehearsal!! Visualy rehearse yourself feeling the way you want to feel, living the way you want to live. This life changing tool is your mind! Annie refers to the book "Your Mind The Magicigian by Allen Rosenthal".

Sick of your own excuses? Try this kinder approach to navigate excuses!!

In my mind there is a few stages of awareness when it comes to excuses. There is first of all straight sincerely believing your excuse, so much so that in no way shape or form do you see it as an excuse. Then something happens or you are forced to face something or you get called out or you hear a story that shifts perspective and you at least own you are making excuses. And then sometimes the stage is not tolerating the excuse and getting mad at it. That is I think the way a lot of "quote disciplined people run. This energy of such hardness .

I once heard someone say they preferred the word devoted to disciplined, but to be used in the same context. For example instead of being so disciplined about writing your novel every day, the you are devoted to the deeper why of why you started.

Then there is this new idea, it's like a new idea for me. What if instead of a mean coach, it was like the most supportive cheerleader?

Annie talks about

-Celebrating your past victories - How to know what content to consume - Intention does not always equal Intention - How to tap back into childlike Fun -What does trusting yourself feel like? -How to navigate your inner critic!

Your emotional home state is not your identity. Your personality is not permanent! Strategy to manifest what you want.

Teach the body how to feel.

Tested positive for Covid, rehearsals for my musical, opening night, and the power of compliments! Do you know how much magic can come from a sincere compliment?!

Get ready!! Are you ready to face the truth of why we put off doing our most important life's work? Why we feel this thing called resistance whenever we have a grand idea or project? Annie refrences Steven Pressfield's book The War of Art, and a talk by Dallin H. Oaks to elaborate!
