Diary of a Launch Entry 5 Overwhelm

A business colleague and friend of mine expressed great overwhelm and fear today and simply asked for words of encouragement.  She spoke of needing clients and I'm guessing that means money so to meet her basic needs.  She also was processing feelings around a very difficult exchange she had with someone she was working with.  

Here are some reflections I shared with her.

"I know the overwhelm and fear. So sorry to hear about the challenging business relationship. It comes with the territory. One of my coaches advised not to worry too much about difficult situations; clients, Virtual Assistants, etc..  We're not a good match for everyone and that's okay.

I hear you about needing clients, i.e needing money I assume. Reminds me of a video I recently watched of Oprah. She was speaking about the "early days". She'd ask herself regularly "What is the next right move." and just keep moving forward one step at a time. I've written these words in very visible locations in my work space, to help with my overwhelm and lack of focus.

What is the next right move, the next best move.  And take action.

My best route during times like you describe is to pray like I've never prayed. The nice thing about this level of stress is that it gives me lots of emotion so my prayer has lots of passion to it.

Find in your heart what you most need to understand and what you most desire, and then pray with all the heart you have."

Support will come, answers will come.  Stay centered within and keep a look out for answers from within and without.

Just yesterday, I was walking "the river trail" near my home.  I was processing and clearing out some energies around difficult relationships in my life.  I was talking out loud, as there were no people around.  And behind me, a young man on a skateboard passed me, and then turned around, saying he had a message for me (from God).  It was a beautiful message that totally affirmed what I was clearing out  (a topic to discuss at a later time).

Imagine that!  What a delightful surprise and amazing affirmation that energies from the unseen world are present and with me always, hearing me, listening, guiding, supporting, loving me.

We are not alone.
