Coaching -what suits you?

Hi all,

Can I ask your help please?

I have been working with numerous people with my “Limiting Belief Buster” coaching process and have had some terrific results.

Yes, it is possible to identify and COMPLETELY clear a major limiting belief or block to money and success in under 2 hours.

You can read Greg’s story in the post below.

My friend, Pat, has just told me he is now much more future- oriented instead of being stuck in the past and business seems to be flowing to him.

I have had some interesting feedback, particularly around structuring the session (s) and I would like to ask your views.

There are 2 distinct parts to it. The first being to identify and clear ONE major Limiting Belief and the second is moving forward from that.

If you were going to clear a major block money and success in your life, would you prefer to do that:

1) In 1 x intense 2 hour blast, with perhaps a 20- 30 minute follow up within a week?
3) In 2 shorter sessions of 45 minutes – 1 hour each with a few days gap and perhaps a 3rd shorter follow up session within a week of the 2nd session?
3) Take the slower route and work with it over a period of time, say 20-30 minutes per week over a period of 3-4 weeks?

4) Once the block was cleared, would you want ongoing support in the form of:
a) weekly or monthly check- in coaching sessions?
b) monthly teleseminars or webinars?
c) online resource centre?
d) Other?

I am working on pricing for the package at the moment.
Your feedback and comments would be much appreciated.
With abundant blessings.

Moving Forward

Hi all,

I have to say, I have quite staggered by the changes in Greg since we did a “Limiting Belief Shifting” session last weekend.

I suppose the effectiveness of any coaching can only really be measured by the new and different ways of being, and new action habits that you see in someone over the following days and weeks.

Greg got up the following day an immediately checked out a stock photo agency, that he has been procrastinating with for months. He then made the decision that it was not right for him at this time because of the restrictive clauses in the terms.

He has since ordered and categorised all of his 10,000+ photographs, so that he knows exactly where they all are. He has never done that before!

That means he can immediately lay his hands on any photograph for any situation, whether that is for a competition, a magazine submission or work for me.

That action alone means the difference between being able to generate an income from his photographs and constantly missing deadlines for things because he couldn’t find the photographs he was looking for.

He has seemed much more confident in himself and more focused on taking his photography forward.

Clear a long-standing Limiting Belief or Block in 2-3 hours.

I have refined the process and tested it on several other people. I have come to the conclusion that a major block can be identified and cleared PERMANENTLY in about 2-3 hours, providing of course, that a person is ready and willing to release that block and to move forward from.

I will be offering 1-2-1 coaching with this very shortly. This will be via telephone, in person (for those of you local to me in UK) and by Skype.

That in itself, is overcoming a major limiting belief for me to do that. I have been working with people doing Clearings for nearly 4 years now, in one way shape or form.

Have a great day.
With abundant blessings.

Clear Limiting Beliefs about Money

Hi all,

Recently I have been looking into my beliefs system, particularly around money, and I have noticed several recurring themes where me and money are concerned.

Recurring Patterns

1) The balance of the scales seemed to be tipped in favour of “money going out”, rather than money coming in.
2) I seemed to be a “money- repellant” and had this great desire to get rid of it as fast as I possibly could.
3) As expenses reduced, so did income.
4) I seemed to be at my most creative when there was absolutely nothing coming in.
5) I seemed to get some perverse enjoyment- almost satisfaction- in wallowing around in negative debt stuff.

I have noticed this for a while and it is only recently that I have been really motivated to explore it and do something about it. I also want to ride the tide of change that is happening astrologically now at the beginning of 2008.

What I noticed when I looked at all this stuff, was that none of it made any sense to me. It was not logical. It was completely contrary to all my goals and intentions and dreams.

I have explored this issue before, yet never really got to the real core it. I know that because my behaviour patterns and results were not changing.

Clearing Limiting Beliefs

Last year I had a coaching session with a coach who specialises in clearing limiting beliefs. I was quite amazed at the results of the session and it triggered off an amazing process of self discovery for me.
She identified some pretty deep-rooted beliefs that I was holding about myself, money, rich people, wealthy people, business and business people and the sacrifices that I thought rich people made in order to have money.

As we were doing the session, I got a picture in my head of a wealthy merchant who was looking sadly down at a great pile of gold coins. He looked like someone from the Tudor times in England (1400 and 1500s).

I knew immediately that was somewhere I would need to revisit on my own to get the full story of what had happened at that point, where I had made the decisions and created the beliefs that I felt were holding me back today.

Love or Money.

What I found out was that I had made a choice between Love or Money, and felt that I could not have both. I have seen myself repeat that pattern frequently.

I finished it off myself with a massive release, huge amounts of tears and a feeling of relief.

I was able to go back to that place and whilst I did not change the decision, I was able to pour healing and golden light into it.

Timeline Healing

I listened to a terrific meditation from my good friend Matt Clarkson of Spiritual Growth Monthly who has a brilliant timeline meditation for clearing limiting beliefs.

With that meditation I learnt how to look for the Positive Intentions behind that action and to carry those positive learnings with me, right into the present day.

These are a few terrific resources I have used. However you can create your own and you can do your own clearing, if you want and/or need to.

Clearing Greg’s biggest block.
Greg, my husband and I, were talking about these experiences and got talking about his PROCRASTINATION, his INABILITY to FINISH THINGS and his UNWILLINGNESS to really SHOW his amazing photographs to the world and we ended up in a spontaneous coaching/healing session.

Sometimes if you talk honestly about your situation to a friend, who is really listening, you can identify a lot of beliefs just in the words that you use. Greg and I switched on the little voice recorder and I immediately heard him use a lot of “should, have to, need to” type of words.

As he was talking, he mentioned “fear of failure”. I questioned him on this to see whether that was the case or whether it was a fear of “massive success”.

The Artist.
As he was talking, I got a picture of him as a artist, painting a stunning picture and then being deceived by a wealthy man. The man had commissioned the picture and agreed a price and then told Greg that it was absolute rubbish and offered to pay him only a fraction of the agreed price and the picture’s true worth.

Greg had believed him and had accepted the reduced money. Only an hour before, Greg had the viewed the picture as the pinnacle of his creativity and this was the finest work he was capable of producing.

That had been the beginning of the end for Greg at that time. He could never value his work or himself again. He always created magnificent stuff and believing neither he, as an artist, or his work was “not good enough” gave it all away and allowed people to walk all over him.

We applied some of the same healing processes and meditations.

Whilst we have not yet brought in mega-bucks as a result of this, I have seen a distinct change in Greg. He is more focused and has completed some tasks he has been putting off for some time.

Time for Clearing.
The energetic vibration of the whole Earth is speeding up and clearing old, non-serving stuff has never been quicker or easier. There are Universal forces around, which are helping with that process.

Mostly, all you need to do is to be willing to clear stuff that does not serve you and ask for assistance. It can literally be that quick and simple.

Greg’s process took about 2 hours in total and we have cleared a BIGGIE!

I hope you have found something useful here.

Your methods for Clearing Limiting Beliefs.
If you have successfully cleared limiting beliefs and blocks around money and success, I would love to hear what you did and what resources have worked for you.
Please share them or drop me a line.

With abundant blessings.

Set your sights on the distant horizon… then go beyond

Hi all,

I would like to share with you one of my all time favourites spots in the world. It is a place called “the Valley of the Rocks” and it one of the most southerly Ice Age glacial valleys in England. The coast is facing West towards the Atlantic Ocean and beyond to USA.

Valley of the Rocks by Gregory Goldston

I grew up in this area.

I have spent a wonderful hour, sitting on the top of the hill and gazing out to sea. It is an amazing place for “clearing the cobwebs” in my brain and letting the creativity flow.

Back behind this spot is a former Iron Age settlement, so the whole place is really ancient. It has that totally timeless, unchanging feel to it.

I hope it inspires you as much as it does me.
With abundant blessings.

An established business

Hi all,

Another way to generate an income from your own business is to buy an existing business, that is already making money.

The Internet has created a lot of opportunities to do that, in just about any area that interests you.

You can buy something that you can refine, improve and build up the profits. (If you have the skills to do that). There are plenty of those type of businesses that you can relatively inexpensively.

The other option is to buy an established, successful, profitable which has been built up over time by their current owners.

They will have already done all the market research, as well as write and tweak the sakes copy, find the most effective ways to generate traffic and refined the sales process so that it works like clockwork.

Some of these can have quite a high price tag to buy the whole thing outright. However, many of these people will also be willing to consider a LICENSING arrangement.

The Internet is a big place and they know thee could never hope to reach all their potential clients with their own advertising.

One such opportunity is a business licence from BANABU systems.

This is a terrific package and the products represent excellent value for money to its customers. It is an amazing product in the Huge, multi billion dollar/pound PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT market.

Mike Kemski, the owner, has built up a business which generates in excess of $250,000 a year and he is now offering a copy copy of this business to a few lucky business people.

BANABU Business Licence

His proven system is excellent.

I had to laugh when I opened my Nitro Blueprint course because Mike’s business development had been used as a case study.

So, it details all the products right from a free report through to a home study course, a monthly membership site, workshops and other products (costing from free to $1000s). It also includes a built in affiliate programme.

When you buy a licence (and you will be stunned when you see the ridiculously low price) , you get all of that included. The beauty of it is that you also get to keep all of the profits.

Well worth checking out.

BANABU Business Licence

Have a great day.

Increasing Finances

Hi all,

This has been the first week back at work for Greg (yes, he still has a J.O. B) and I have realized how much easier it would be to have him at home, both from a business perspective and also from helping me with the home-education of our girls.

For a lot of people, there has been a sick feeling of dread with the thought of going back to work. Last weekend, Greg had complained of feeling unwell.

Over Christmas we have done a fair bit of exploration around the limiting beliefs we have been holding onto, that has meant financial wealth has not flowed in as fast as we would like it to.

We have mastered the “money flowing out” quite well!

We have come to the conclusion, as I think many of you do, that in order to have the money coming in to do the things you want to do, you need to have a business of your own- or a way to partner with someone who has a successful business and you can share in their success and their revenue.

Partnering with someone as an affiliate of for their products is the subject of another blog.

Your own Internet Business.

For some time I have trying to get Greg, my very talented photographer husband, to look at Internet Marketing and ways of promoting himself online and to create a business out of his photography.

He has resisted me with every ounce of his being!

Just before Christmas, I started talking to him about a couple of guys online, called Nitro Marketing, who, in about 6 years, had built up an online information business that is on track to turn over $16,000,000 in 2008.

They were promoting a course which detailed every step they had taken to achieve that result and the things they do on a day-to-day basis TODAY to create, market and make money from new products, step-by-step from the beginning.

Greg humoured me!
I could hear him thinking “Heard it all before. Been there, spent the money, got the t-shirt……”

However, he bought me the course as a Christmas present. Whilst we were waiting for it to come from the USA, I started working with the information Nitro Marketing had provided in a series of 5 short FREE videos.

You can see those same videos here.

FREE Make Money Videos

A lot of things became clear to me while watching those videos and I could see a lot of reasons why I had not had the online success I have desired and that I have seen other people have.

The “Empty Box Principle” was like being hit by a Huge BFO (Blinding Flash of the Obvious). Thanks to my friend, Andy Gwynn for that brilliant phrase.

I immediately applied a couple of simple things I learnt. I started to see a trickle of sales coming in from a very obvious place I had overlooked.

When the course came, Greg actually started to show an interest in what it might be able to help us to do- if we applied the information.

I was amazed and delighted.

Progress so far.

We have worked on some goals, including an income level where Greg’s job could become a CHOICE and the reasons why it is important to get his business running and profitable.

He has researched a market he is passionate about to see what is already out there and what he could offer that is different, yet similar enough to things that are already selling.

He has looked at an overall plan as well as products and services that he offer and potential pricing of these products.

He has passion and enthusiasm for this project and he has a real belief that he/we can create a real business, with real products and services that is making money and is based around doing something he loves- and that is his.

I would highly recommend checking out the FREE videos. You never know, it could be the catalyst for you to start your own successful and profitable Internet business (or develop an existing one) .

More of our progress and other ideas coming soon.
Have a great day.

FREE Financial Abundance Meditation

Hi all,

Limiting Beliefs around money have been a big challenge for me for a long time and it is still a work in progress.

I have decided that I owe it to myself and my family to find ways to allow financial prosperity into my life. If nothing else, to be a better role model to my kids.

I have been looking into a few things recently and come across some useful resources.

The biggest change, however, is starting to take place in me. I have decided that, as far as possible, I am only going to do things that I enjoy doing and which are fun.

I suppose this is a form of self love to myself. Interestingly I seem to be attracting more people and opportunities who have FUN at the top of the priority list.

My good friend Matt Clarkson of Spiritual Growth Monthly has just released a FREE financial abundance Meditation, which is available from his blog.

Financial Abundance Meditation

This is a lovely meditation. It is very gently and I went to a wonderful, good feeling place of Abundance.

Matt has a very soothing voice and I felt totally at peace- until our dog (George the Rottweiler with his own unique personality) decided to start barking at fresh air!

Please enjoy the meditation.
With abundant blessings.

Happy New Year and Intentions for 2008

Published by Amanda under abundance,dream life,goals

Hi all

Hope you had a great Christmas and a terrific New Year.

I hope the holidays gave you a good opportunity to:
1) Give Yourself a big pat on the back for the all the wonderful things you had in your life in 2007, all the fun, the laughter, the smiles, the successes and even the changes.
2) Let go of 2007 and whatever challenges it may have brought you.
3) Set some intentions for the things you would like to be, have and do in 2008.

For many people 2007 was a year of great change and upheaval. It was a year where lots of us seemed to be questioning things, people, values and situations that we thought we held dear to us.

It seemed to be a year of really letting go of what no longer served. For our family, we had to learn the ability to “look on the bright side” and to see the “silver lining” within some bizarre events and to be “happy in the NOW!”

In January we found what we thought was our dream home. It ticked all the boxes and seemed perfect, yet I could not seem to attract the circumstances or people to make it happen.

Less than 6 weeks later, the reason became apparent as we had a big fall out with the girls’ school and ended up taking them out of school and home-schooling them.

No wonder we did not need to live on the doorstep of the school!

In February, Greg (my husband) started back at work with his old company. (Money was a bit tight) and within a few weeks they asked him to relocate to the South West of England.

I was overjoyed because that is the area I come from and it has been a long-held dream to move to that area- and Greg’s company would pay relocation costs.- even better!!

We spent several months looking and found a perfect place, that we were going to use as a residential self development/spiritual retreat and training centre.

Again with the best will in the world and our concentrated effort we could not get it all to come together. It was frustrating to say the least!

Then we looked towards moving abroad and we have also met roadblocks with that!
Sometimes “DIVINE TIMING” can be very irritating and frustrating!

Where all this has brought me is to looking very closely at my beliefs about myself, money, my worthiness, my deservedness and what am I actually THINKING and FEELING that has been drawing this frustration into my life.

I have found there was a lot of old, non-serving stuff around money and love, which I have been working with clearing. I will share some of my discoveries and some of the things you can also do to shift unhelpful beliefs over the next few days.

One of the things I had been missing was the ability to be JOYFUL in the NOW, right in this moment, right where I am. I had not been able to appreciate the house or the town where we live and I was constantly looking for something better – “over there”.

Whilst it is terrific to have dreams, intentions, goals and plans – and I think everyone should have a “Vision Board or Book” with all these things in it, I think a wonderful life is made up of those magical moments that bring a smile to our faces.

My internal make-up also seems to have a “knee-jerk” reaction and dislike of “dated and timed goals”. But, maybe that’s just me…

For me, a lot of my focus going forward is to:
1) help Greg and the girls get their online businesses up and running and profitable
2) bridge the gap between mindset, meditation and money and help others to do the same
3) enjoy every day and have fun and laughter with my family and friends, whether we are playing a family game or on a terrific holiday or whatever we are doing.
4) Allow myself to give and receive more LOVE in my life (after all the Latin meaning of AMANDA is “worthy of love”).

What experiences would you like to have in your life in 2008?
Something tangible? Money? Material Things? Health? Relationships? Time? Feelings?

2008 is a 1 (one) year, which is a about new beginnings.
Let’s choose and allow for it to a wonderful one!
With abundant blessings.
