Summary

What do relationships and business have in common? You can’t succeed in either without mindfulness.

Think about what it takes to be a successful entrepreneur. Drive, passion, organization, strength…. But also, belief in yourself, trust in your abilities, confidence in your knowledge. Without that, you just stand in your own way. So how can we stop blocking ourselves from following our dreams and setting up our businesses? It all starts with mindfulness.

The same goes for our relationships. Our vibration, which is made up of all our habitual thoughts and our core beliefs about ourselves and the world, is what attracts people into our lives. In the same way, if we have unresolved issues, we will keep attracting people who exacerbate them. Unless we love ourselves, we cannot expect another person to truly love us. We need to empower ourselves and take responsibility for what we bring into our relationships - we create our reality, so if our reality doesn’t suit us, then we need to look at what we’re putting out there, what we’re believing, and how we’re creating this situation.

Mindfulness can be the difference between success and failure. Most of what holds us back is not being mindful or aware of the little things that stop us. Limiting believes create blocks, in our relationships, and our business. When we bring mindfulness to what we’re doing, it opens us up for success in all areas of our lives.

Step in today’s guest, Michael Neeley. Michael first discovered mindfulness during his acting career (he spent twelve years working as a medieval knight!). The more he studied Buddhism and got into the psychology of human beings, the more he felt driven to share this knowledge with the world. He got out of acting and into coaching, and now runs three podcasts and regular mindset mastery events. His mission: to bring new ways of thinking and being to wake up people and the world.

That’s why Michael launched Your Authority Blueprint Live, an event dedicated to helping visionary solo-preneurs connect with their inner expert and become successful. The Authority Blueprint is founded on four pillars which, when implemented, will catapult you into the scene in a big way. These four pillars are podcasting, virtual summits, speaking from stage and authoring your own book.

If you feel like you’ve got a book inside you, or the deep sense that you have something to share, but are not sure where to begin, this event is perfect for you. 

Michael’s year-long program, the Authority Academy, goes through each one of those pillars one by one, and get them done, while helping you release the blocks that keep you from stepping up. So that at the end of the year your podcast is up and running, you’ve spoken at an online summit, are booking speaking gigs and have published your book. More details HERE.

If you’re ready to release what keeps you blocked, then don’t miss JJ’s Releasing What Weighs You Down event on January 10th to 13th in Los Angeles. Speakers will include JJ herself, Michael Neeley, Allison, energy practitioner Lisa Thomas and mind-body-spirit nutritionist Jeanne Peters.
