"The less I work, the more money I create."

Yesterday I was chatting to someone and heard these words said with full genuine confidence...

"The less I work, the more money I create."

It took a few moments to realise that they'd actually come out of MY mouth.

And it took a few moments more to realise that I FULLY meant them.

It's crazy to think that just several years ago, this sort of statement would have been completely alien to me. A full-time Assistant Headteacher, working all hours, stressed to the max - and getting my decent but not-worth-it paycheck no matter how many hours I put in.

Then, fast forward a couple of years to starting my first business as a Consultant & Coach in Education, I now knew that it was fully up to me to CREATE my own money. 

And, at the time, I 100% believed that I had to WORK HARD and LONG to do this. I mean, surely - the more time and effort I put in, the more I would get out, right?

Well, now let's bring it back to the present moment. I'm two years into my mindset coaching business, and what I've learnt is that the 'work-hard-and-long' belief is only true if I want it to be.

And so I've chosen to scrap it.

I've chosen to notice how every time I have more time for ME (walking in nature, journaling, relaxing in the bath, chatting with a friend, playing music with the husband), I end up creating MORE authentic impact and MORE money in my business.

I end up making decisions and taking action from a place that is completely aligned to ME, and so the hours I put in create much more powerful results. 

If you're stuck in the cycle of believing that making money in your business has to be hard and long, take a moment to check in with yourself and imagine the possibility of something that serves you better. x
