Success for 2014: Why I'm raising my standards!

Hello Theo,

Following a recent review of my goals and objectives, I noticed how I was tolerating and settling for certain things in my life.

This ranged from clutter in the house, poor sleep, distractions, negativity, and anxiety!

None of which supports my vision for my life.

Tony Robbins says, “If you want to change your life you have to raise your standards.”

Which is why I'm raising mine ...

This includes my nutrition, exercise, habits, environment, beliefs, conversations, as well as my work and income.

Knowing what I'm tolerating I can make changes; with a mix of practical action and internal shifts in energy and mindset.

And it doesn’t have to be overwhelming.

Small incremental steps work very well.

It could be not engaging in certain conversations or content, saying no, letting go or changing habitual thoughts.

As we become clearer on our standards it's easier to make decisions and choices, which benefit ourselves and our clients.

Here are some areas to consider…

Clients and Income – if you’re not achieving the level of clients and income you want or deserve it may be because you’re not valuing yourself or your services. “Your income right now is a result of your standards, it’s not the industry, it’s not the economy. Raise your standards, and you’ll raise your worth”. (Tony Robbins)

Thoughts and beliefs – as you probably know what we believe about ourselves and life in general can keep us from achieving our goals. What thoughts and beliefs are holding you back?

Self-image – our identity and self-image can determine how we feel and the actions we take. If you step into the image of your future self, what decisions would you take, what would you be wearing, what would your environment look like?

Work – if you are a solo business owner, like me, our work is often a reflection of ourselves and how we are feeling about it! Raising standards at work could mean upleveling your personal brand, being consistent, adding more value to services, increasing fees, or setting boundaries.

Environment – our environments can shape our thoughts and emotions. One of my values is beauty and I love to spend time in inspiring settings, whether this is in nature or a lovely coffee shop. It reinforces my commitment to growth, abundance, and possibilities.

How I support my wellbeing in business ...

Several years ago, mainly out of curiosity, I started using essential oils to support my physical and emotional wellbeing.

And I've not stopped! Every day, I use oils in my skincare regime, when I wash my hair, and to fragrance and clean my home.

They are safe, easy and versatile to use, and offer a boost to my mood and emotions.

If I’m feeling anxious, I’ll rub a drop of Adaptiv blend on my pulse points, and when I want to feel energised and uplifted I inhale the zesty fragrance of Wild Orange or Lemon.

Essential Oils have become a natural part of my daily routine, supporting my emotional and mental wellbeing throughout the day, so I stay focused and productive.

Do you use Essential Oils?
