Want Some New Clients This Week? Throw 10 Things Away NOW!
Everything in your space either adds energy ortakes it away. Take a moment to look around you right this every moment and notice how you feel. Do you feel overloaded, frustrated, claustrophobic or frazzled looking at all of the things in your overflowing in box? When you feel that way, you are shutting yourself off to receiving anything new.
If you want those clients to appear in your life you need to make space for them. So your task for this very moment is to find 10 things that you can throw away, RIGHT NOW. If you are in your office, in your inbox are probaly flyers for classes or special offers that have expired and can be tossed. That pen that ran out of ink and is still on your desk ~ toss it. If you are at home I guarantee you that your pantry has things in there WAY past their expiration date and your makeup drawer has products that are long gone. Toss them. If you are in your car ~ the center console alone is probably a gold mine of garbage, if not there, then your trunk is for sure.
Now that you have thrown them away, how does it feel? Notice the space that is there now? Space that is able to invite something else in. We clutter our lives both externally with stuff and internally with unnecessary thoughts and stresses that keep new things from coming into our lives. Take a moment to relax and see how good it feels to make space for things.
I know, we are supposed to be green and it is all about reduce, reuse and recycle and there is a time and place for that, but doing those things involves more steps. I want you to get the instant gratification of lightening your load. Once you get the hang of it, then you can start going through your closet to donate clothes and the other areas of your house and office.
But for now, revel in the act of throwing something away, fully completing a task and not having to come back to it and making space for new clients.

Bet On Yourself VS The Market
Last week I shared how the end of August is a weird time – wanting to savor summer, while also shifting back into work mode. Turns out I’m not the only one this happens to! Thank you for all of the notes and feedback. I’ve found that when I’m not taking action, I spend WAY…
I Used To Dread The Last 2 Weeks Of August
Thirty years in real estate has taught me a lot of things. One of the best is this: I can finally see my own patterns. Like the one where I get twitchy every year mid-August. Part of me wants summer to stretch on forever. Part of me is itching for routine, order, and the satisfaction…
Beliefs = Actions = Results – It Matters Where You Start
August is an interesting month for me. I’m savoring the relaxed pace of summer, while also starting to think about Fall and shifting back into work mode. With a shift in focus I naturally start wondering what will happen. Will I be busy? Where will my clients come from? Will they be buyers or sellers?…
What Do You LOVE About Your Business?
I’m back!!! There’s been a lot going on lately, (more on that in a later post) and it’s been a few weeks since I’ve sent you a note. Needless to say, I’ve missed you! I’ve been moving through a lot of ‘life’ lately, and there’s been a common thread in my business that has surprised…
How Do You Want Summer To Feel?
Summer is often a season of expectations not meeting reality. I used to think my perfect summer meant iced tea on the patio while reading every day. For the record, that’s never happened. And for a while, I felt bad about it — like I was missing out, like I was doing summer wrong. Until…
You’re Not Behind, There Are Infinite Options
Your in box is about to fill up with emails about us being 1/2 through the year. You know – the ones that ask if you’re on track with your goals, and offer a solution to whip you into shape for the next 6 months. If you are having a great year – I celebrate…
Letting Go Of The Hustle Sounds Great, But You’ve Got a Business To Run
To be clear, I am 100% for less hustle, more flow, manifesting, receiving, regulating my nervous system, and letting things be easier. But somewhere between: “That sounds amazing” and “I’m a real estate agent – I need to generate clients and sell houses to earn an income” Things can get confusing. Because no matter how…
The Beauty of Not Doing It Alone
Thank you for being part of this community! I learned something beautiful and powerful last week. It was vulnerable to post about recalibrating, and being in the messy middle of grieving. Yet the conversations, emails, texts and notes have meant to much. To know that we are not alone is one of the greatest gifts…
Recalibrate In a Business That Runs 24/7
It happens to me every year about this time. The need to recalibrate. In a business that can run 24/7 – it’s easy to look up one day and realize, your batteries are drained and there’s no break in sight. Side note – It doesn’t have to be a 24/7 thing, but that’s a topic…
It’s Okay For Things To Be Different
I often find myself comparing things. I compare my business this year to years past.I compare my health and fitness to where I was 10 years ago.I compare how I show up and experience different life events. On the one hand – it makes perfect sense. Our brains crave predictability. It calms our nervous system.…
