Want a guaranteed way to get the best results?
In the last #BeHappyGetResults series post, I shared that you could take your awareness to the next level by focusing it – – i.e., paying attention – – in the present moment. Another way to focus your awareness that leads to results is by setting intentions. Everything that happens starts with an intention. You might have heard about setting an intention at the beginning of your yoga class.  And, I’m sure you’ve set an objective at the beginning of your business meetings. Now, we’ll take this practice of focusing your awareness via setting intentions to a whole new level for you.

Practice Setting Intentions
I created a proprietary tool that can help! My Setting Intentions Form guides you through 5 simple questions to organize your thoughts and transform your energy.  And, you can use this tool literally every moment of your life.  Try it before an important date, conversation, meeting, email, or phone call.  My clients LOVE this tool! They rip it out of the InnerBrilliance Playbook and put in in their bag or keep it at their desk.

It’s based on principles from a combination of neuroscience, positive psychology, and marketing to help you get clear on your desires and communicate that information clearly and confidently.

How It Works
You get results you’ll love because you center yourself and become clear on what you intend for a situation. It’s important to take a moment to really feel the emotions associated with your intentions (for example, peace, joy, love, or grace).  It’s empowering to take this step because when you feel them, you don’t depend on others to bring about the experience.

Remember to stay connected with your intention. And, throughout the process of moving toward your desired outcome, be open to new insights and better choices.  This will allow you to choose behaviors that lead to the results you desire.

The best part…you’ll begin to trust yourself more than ever with this process.

Wish it were easier to know the "best" next step to take?

In this #BeHappyGetResults series, I've shared how increasing your awareness about yourself (by going inward) can be a powerful step for getting results you desire.  Now, it's time to take your awareness to the next level by focusing it - - i.e., paying attention - - in the present moment.  The answers you're looking for in life and your strength live here.

I've already mentioned one tool for focusing your awareness or paying attention which is to practice PMA.  To learn more about PMA, check out this article.  And, in this post, I'm sharing a simple way to pay attention in the present moment to get answers you seek.

Simple 3 step process to get answers...
​I like to use the following 3 steps to help get answers in my life:

Ask "what is true in this moment?"

• This is the only truth that exists.  The past has happened.  And, no one knows what the future will bring.

Let go of resisting.

• When you notice an answer to the question above, don't fight it.  Remember, that answer might not look like what you thought or expected.  But, it doesn't mean it's the "wrong" answer.

Be open to getting information or clues or truth.

• Practice acceptance of "what is" and reconnect with your intention (for the situation). Then, explore or consider whatever comes up. This next piece of information, clue, or truth might lead you to a better result than you could have ever imagined.

Check out this example below:
When I was searching for hearing aids (to help with my genetic hearing loss), I was struggling with the brand my audiologist recommended and the insurance company couldn't confirm the pair would be covered.  My intention was to find a pair that provided the best hearing experience at the most affordable price.  So, I applied the 3 step process above and the results were surprising!  Here goes...

​What is true in this moment?

• I didn't have the hearing aids that worked best for me (at that point). And, my insurance company had finally confirmed the hearing aids wouldn't be covered.

Let go of resisting.

• I was getting attached to this one option of hearing aids since I trusted my audiologist and had invested so much time into researching this option.  But, I decided to let go of that attachment and recognize that these were not my only option. (Seems obvious, but have you ever been overwhelmed by options and just wanted to go with the most familiar one?)

Be open to getting information or clues or truth.

• So, I reconnected with my intention for the best experience at an affordable price.  And, I kept an open mind as I was about to explore my other options. Before I did any more research, an acquaintance noticed I was wearing hearing aids. She explained she was an audiologist for a competing brand. She humbly offered me the opportunity to try her brand.  Over a few months, I discovered this brand worked better for me, and she gave them to me for FREE!

Hope you can see how staying present in the moment and open to possibilities can lead to getting results (and even better results than you could have ever planned).
