Your day, kissing, next success, friendships, nervous system, money-making… How do you want it all to feel?
Danielle LaPorte has started a new question/answer post challenge today and I’m happy to be a part of it!   Today’s Burning Question is about feeling…….how do you want it all to feel.   I love the introduction feeling ideas from Danielle…they are juicy, fresh and alive.   Hmmm….juicy, fresh and alive.   That’s a good way to want to feel.  I think I’ll start there.  
The way I want to feel:
My day…..juicy, fresh and alive…like sunshine on my face
Next success…..strong, solid…like a very muscular, sexy arm
Friendships…..yummy, fun…like moist chocolate cake with buttercream frosting, creamy sweet tea
Nervous System …. engaged, relaxed, present…..like fresh cut grass, laundry hanging on the line
Money Making….joyous, easy, solid….like walking through the forest in the early morning, on a quiet path, fresh air, pine trees
Need some inspiration to get started……written below are Danielle LaPorte’s thoughts on this first post…just brilliant I think.

how do you want it all to feel? sensuous goal refinement + emotional magnetizing

Feelings are magnetic. So it goes that if you generate certain feelings — and you have the power to create any feeling you desire — then you increase the power of your emotional magnetism. But we need to limber up, loosen the images and adjectives encrusted on our goals and most-desired states. It helps to get poetic, lyrical, and abstract. Go there with me.

I want my day to feel like jazz.
I want kissing to feel like eating an orange off the tree from Tuscany.
I want my next success to feel like Adele must feel with her latest album.
I want my body to feel like a Jaguar in a new open field.
I want smiling to feel like mangoes.
I want my friendships to feel like sandalwood oil, and bowls of popcorn, and hand-knit, with Vodka mixers, served up in a red tent.
I want my nervous system to feel like The Buddha must have felt when he discovered The Middle Way.
I want my gigs to feel like Jimmy Page playing Kashmir, and Gaga doing a Born This Way finale, with some Leonard Cohen tenderness.
I want my neighborhood to feel like a new Jason Mraz song.
I want my integrity to feel like the Hope Diamond.
I want my money-making to feel like walking though a vineyard, surveying ripeness, a production of sun and earth for craft and pleasure.
I want my word to feel like gold bullion.
I want my laughter to feel like electric pineapple children.
I want the end of the day to feel like a happy quiet baby.
I want being of service to feel like The Medicine Woman mixing herbs into healing paste for warriors.
I want my philanthropy to feel like a cosmic Queen on her best day.
I want my challenges to feel how Siddhartha felt when the left the kingdom.
I want my love to feel like a gorgeous secret that only he and I know. For eternity.
I want my writing to feel like Citrine, and Jack Kerouac with a fresh buzz on.
I want my ideas to feel like sunrise.

My faith in this process is always rewarded!   A simple start, but already I’m seeing some changes and so I will continue.

Gratitude and special signs since the first post:

-one of my best clients booked me for an Image Consulting session and my second best client has emailed me to book a session (see my other businesses  www.coriburchell.com and www.bachelor911.com)

-I am getting a bit closer to owning my home

-a small win in the lottery !!! ha ha (just $20)

 

Updated baby steps for this week:

1.  10% of all new income goes to tithing/charity

2.  10% of all new income goes to saving (that means $2.00 from my lottery winnings!)

3.  10% of all lnew income goes to investing

4.  Brush Hollie every day (Hollie is my dog)!

This is a new blog! I believe very strongly in the force of daily promises, focused in the direction of your most important dreams. The actions that you take every day either take you closer to your desires or farther away. The Power of Promises is designed to make sure that you are getting closer!

Today my promises are simple and they are baby steps, aligned with my most important goals:

1. Floss my teeth
2. Spend time with my mom and dad before they leave on their trip
3. Start The Power of Promises blog
4. Save $10.00

As this blog develops I will explain the goal setting process and the guidelines I’m going to follow. And I’ll report back with any successes, wins and achievements. Please feel free to comment or to post your own three promises for the day.
