5 Ways to Live in Flow and Achieve Great Things

I know you might be saying to yourself, “Who, me? Live in flow and achieve great things! Have you seen my life?” I have coached many people who see their situations and say, “But, this is going on…” or “What if this happens? or “How can I do this, when this is going on…” YES, and great things can be and are being achieved by people in those situations every single day, even by you.

1.??? Be Intentional.

One of the most critical things about achieving success is being intentional with your choices and your actions. When you make decisions based on what's most important to you – based on your values, you will align with who you say you are and want to be.

2.??? Be Open to Hidden Opportunities.

Please pay attention to the information or feedback that you receive through your interactions or situations that come up. You may find an interaction or situation uncomfortable because it gives your an opportunity to use your voice, share new ideas, or even take a stand for something you believe in. The opportunity may be letting go of a belief that you feel that you're not enough in a certain area.

3.??? Feel All the Feels

You have a range of emotions. You may be choosing to avoid feeling those emotions because they make you uncomfortable or you feel out of control. Your feelings are giving you information which leads to better decision-making. If you want to understand your feelings, pay attention to what you were thinking before the feeling. Sky Nelson-Issacs said in his book, Living Flow: The Science of Synchronicity and How Your Choices Shape the World, “Our feelings drive the events in our lives.”

4.??? Trust the Process

Sometimes the more you want control over situations the less control you have. Having a sense of control gives you a sense of certainty and predictability and you know life doesn't work that way. Focus on trusting that your intentional efforts and actions will lead you to the outcomes that you desire or better.

5.??? Do More of What You Love

Doing more of what you love allows you to feel more confident and competent in trusting in your abilities. You possess far more greatness than you give yourself credit for. Build a life that you love and do meaningful work that doesn't feel like work and matters to you. Schedule your calendar with the intention and anticipating life's greatest adventure on your terms.
