Greetings!

We have to first believe it, and then we see it.
Read that again. Seeing is not believing. Believing comes first.
That said, I still rely on visual aids to get me there.
A simple vision board is a great tool. We made vision boards at Happiness Club this month. It is a project you can do at home. Grab a piece of poster board or construction paper, scissors, and glue.
Go through magazines for pictures and words that grab your heart. It could be the things you want or the images that evoke the FEELING that you want.
It does not have to make sense why something calls out to you. Rip it out and put in your pile. Then sort through all the words and images to filter what is speaking to you the strongest.
Arrange and glue on your poster and put it up where you will see it everyday.
This tool works.
You can do a quickie version too. I scribbled with markers on a piece of paper a picture of a house with trees and privacy. Ta-da, that is where we now live.
I again took out my marker and sketched a "For Sale" sign outside my condo with a big SOLD banner. We accepted an offer this week and close in less than a month.
Try it. Create a vision board. Look at it. Let yourself believe in the words and pictures you post for yourself.
First we write our story (or make a picture) of it, and then we step in to it.
What are you ready to create?
Words to Ponder:
A Vision of Beauty By BJ Gallagher
Picture it. Hold the image in your mind, the vision in your heart. You'll see it when you believe it - not the other way around. All great human achievements started off as an idea, a picture in someone's head. Your achievement, your goal, your fulfillment, your future are like postcards tacked to the bulletin board of your mind. Keep them visible - look at them often. See yourself in those pictures and know that dreams really do come true.

JOY Beyond Your Dreams |
The JOY Beyond Your Dreams Life Mastery Program was created for YOU, and in a way, by you. YOUR QUESTIONS about HOW TO LIVE a fun and fulfilling life are answered.
I walk you through the process of how to let go of the fears that are keeping you tied in knots (money fears, health fears, relationship fears...) and how to embrace a new mindset. Perhaps I should dub it embracing a new "heartset." Learning to live from your heart and getting out of your head is where creating your life starts. Believe it: Change your thoughts, change your life.What do happy people have? HABITS.They believe inHUMOR ABUNDANCE BEAUTY INNER VOICE TRUST SPIRITTo bring these elements into your life and start living a life that is freeing and empowering, join me on this 7-week journey.
register today.
If you want a 5-minute chat to determine if this program is for you, write info@kellyepperson.com to schedule.
Go look at yourself in the mirror right now. Are you able to look yourself in the eye and say "I love my life!"?
If you cannot, and you want to, SIGN UP now.
We start Monday, October 24. The program is designed to be flexible to accommodate you. You will receive daily emails throughout the seven weeks to keep and read, forever. The second week of the program, we start weekly group coaching calls. Listen in and bring up your questions. If you cannot make the live call, all calls are recorded so you can listen anytime, anywhere. You also get private access email to me so you will never have to feel stuck.
There is no pressure to "keep up" and there are no grades! Your assignments are growth tools to discover more about yourself and how to get to where you want to be more rapidly, because you get clearer on what you want.
At home, self-paced, jam packed with high value content. Yours to have to refer to for the rest of your life.
Back when I worked at the IRS, I never imagined my life would now be like this, so incredible and fun and satisfying. Down the road when you look back at your life, what do you want to be able to say?
SIGN UP NOW
Talk to you very soon!
