My lovely friend Karina wrote a really touching post last week, detailing what happened in 2014 for her and what she wishes for in 2015. I do this in these workbooks, but didn’t think of doing it in public. Karina’s post inspired me to do so. 🙂
The dreams that came true for me in 2014
// I started my business! This is why you’re reading this in the first place! 🙂 The year started slowly, with a workshop here and there and no idea how to transfer what I was doing online. Joining the Amazing Life and Biz Academy meant that I had an enormous support group of women all over the world building heart- and soul-centered businesses. Their inspiring work and their help (a Facebook forum is part of the academy and the support in there is priceless – you can ask anything and you’ll get loads of ideas!) meant that I had a great chance of figuring it out. I ended the year with steady clients and loads of workshops and other offerings running all the time. Huge success of which I am really, really proud.
// We went to California! The trip was incredible, and we’re all still talking about it. It was also a hugely significant step for me, from a mentality of ‘I wish I could do that’ to ‘I can do anything I desire’.
// I survived surgery. This wasn’t exactly a dream, obviously, but it’s too important not to mention in this list. My actual dream was to solve my medical problem naturally, without surgery, but that didn’t happen. This shook my faith in the universe, and I didn’t know what I believed for a while. How can I believe that I can accomplish anything when I couldn’t manage to avoid surgery? In the end, the lessons I learned were priceless, and I came out the other end stronger and wiser. I am grateful.
// I started a real-life planning party group with my closest friends. We meet at the beginning of each month and talk about we accomplished in the past month and we commit to doing the following month. There is an element of accountability of course, but there is also a huge element of female bonding that I didn’t know was missing so much from my life. Highly recommended! 🙂
// I gained the confidence to work on my own terms. After getting some email coaching over the summer, I decided that the email format would suit me so much better than working with people over Skype. So I launched Magic by eMail and it’s been a huge success ever since, my most popular service, I’d say.
// I created a Facebook group that aims to support and inspire people as they create their lives with intention. I started in January of 2014 with 4 people, all close friends of mine, and committed to doing free group oracle card readings every morning. This group has grown immensely and is a lovely place to be. I have loved working with oracle cards all year and now have loads of different decks, because I need them for work, right? 😉
// I created a course on connecting with intuition, that I can give away for free when people sign up to my email list. I’m proud of it because it’s something I procrastinated on for months and months, I suppose I was afraid that no one would want it anyway. 🙂 When I finally made myself sit down and do it, it went really smoothly and took no time at all. And I didn’t have to worry because loads of people wanted it and thought it was great. You can get yours here.
The dreams that didn’t come true… yet
// I didn’t turn my early workshops into e-books. I ran intuitive art workshops called Find your Passion, Find your Path, Manifest your Greatest Dreams and Connect with Your Inner Child. I’m not sure whether I’ll run them again, but I am sure that I want to make the processes available as ebooks. Didn’t happen last year though, there was a lot of procrastinating involved in this…
// I didn’t launch a YouTube channel. It was supposed to happen in September, then October, and so on. I think that it didn’t because I was so uncomfortable with the way I look on camera… Another block to bust through, soon!
What’s on my 2015 dream list?
// Launch a community for people who want to practice living with intention and intuition. The Creation Space is opening its doors in February – sign up here to be the first to know when it opens!
// Go to Italy. And the fairytale castles of Germany. And Switzerland. 🙂
// Go to London on my own, in search of inspiration.
// Start a YouTube channel and a podcast. and have loads of fun with them!
// Write a few e-courses.
// Write a book. This is an interesting journey for me, because I know that there is a book inside me but I don’t know what it’s about, exactly. Writing it seems to be a lesson in going with the flow and letting go of the outcome. Interesting!
Phew, that’s some list!
Do you make it a point to look back on what happened in the previous year? Do it, you’ll see that you got a lot more done than you thought! 🙂
Lots of love,
