A participant in my current "Get Clients Now!" workshop shared a great story on our coaching call last week.

She was at the dentist's office and while she was laying in the chair she was thinking about asking for referrals - one of the actions she committed to in the short-term marketing plan she created during the kick off seminar.  She wasn't really sure how that could work in this situation, but she was open to whatever came along.

When the dentist came in, he asked if she had given thought to a more expensive procedure they had discussed on a previous visit.  She then told him she thought it would have to wait until she got her new business off the ground since cash flow is less than she's used to right now.  He then asked what she was doing.  After she told him, the hygenist who was also in the room said she knew a couple of people who could probably use her services and asked her for cards to pass along.

To further ensure a successful outcome, she will also follow up with the hygenist later this week to see how best to proceed.

When we are focused on creating what we want and willing to accept whatever form shows up, openings present themselves.  However, it is important that we don't dismiss opportunities that appear different than we expected or give our minds mixed messages by interjecting thoughts like, "But, that will never work."  

This week, keep your mind focused on what you want to create for yourself.  Stop your thoughts if you notice yourself saying something that is counter to what you really want and replace that thought with one that is supportive of your desired outcome.

It may take a while to make this a habit, but it is one that will serve you well in all areas of your life.

Wishing you good thoughts that bring you good things-
