"Are
you prepared to live without ever fully connecting with
your true calling?"
It really is hard to believe
that most people probably spend more time each week
studying the television guide than they do thinking
about the work that lights them up inside.
The
work that the majority of people find themselves doing
neither inspires them, nor does it call upon them to
express the aspects of their deepest being – the
parts of them that are crying out to be expressed –
the part of them that has meaning.
We
even talk of finding meaningful work in terms of following
our ‘hearts calling’. But what happens in
reality is that most people end up living a lie, spending
their days, weeks, months and years wearing a mask that
hides what their heart is calling out for them to do.
When people disconnect from their heart, they
often find themselves suffering intolerable amounts
of stress in the workplace, working crazy hours whilst
not getting paid anywhere near their true value (although
it’s important to note that people earning a lot
of money doing unfulfilling work often feel just as
desperate and unhappy).
A
common assumption about work is that it is something
that requires us to suffer in silence by gritting our
teeth and keeping our heads down. For millions upon
millions of people, this way of working has just become
a painfully accepted part of life.
Our
message to you is really very simple...
"You do not have to spend the rest of
your working life living this way!"
Whatever
stage you are at in your journey of work you can always
interrupt limiting behavioural patterns so that you
can start taking more empowering steps in the direction
of what you truly want.
But
in order to do this it is incredibly important to firstly
explore what is stopping you from being more successful
and fulfilled in your work.
To
help you with this exploration...
If
you said yes to any of the above, there
is definitely a deep part of you that is ready for transformation.
Not
only will the 'Alchemy of Work Retreat'
help you to connect with work that inspires you but
it will also help you make the mental and emotional
shifts necessary as well. But more about that a little
later...
But
firstly let's spend some time considering what holds
people back who already have an idea about what they
want...
"Is
fear stopping you from going
after what you love?"
There
are many people who already have an idea about what
they want. They may even be able to picture it in their
mind. One thing they are clear about is just how emotionally
and spiritually fulfilled their lives could be if they
only gave themselves permission to walk the path leading
them to true joy and success.
The
journey may begin easy enough, with those first liberating
steps towards freedom, sending ripples of delight throughout
the entire body. But then, at that crucial point, when
the doors of transformation are literally just about
to swing open, fear sets in and all those niggling doubts
begin to surface yet again. And it is these 'tests
of spirit' that can be enough to drag the unsuspecting
person back into what is familiar and known (but not
necessarily comfortable).
Sure
there is a real and genuine relief that comes from running
back to the imagined safety of old patterns of behaviour,
but not surprisingly this feeling of relief is only
ever temporary.
The
reason why this relief is temporary is because once
the mind has caught a glimmer of the bliss that can
be attained through great work, life can never ever
be the same. The 19th century poet, Oliver Wendell Holmes
said it best when he wrote "a mind
stretched to a new idea can never go back to its original
dimensions".
Another
interesting dynamic that people who step backwards quickly
discover is that their old strategies cease to be as
effective as they used to be.
It's
almost as if the universe is playing a cruel joke to
prod and push them out of their comfort zones, and into
the arena that can bring them the greatest sense of
achievement.
If
you can relate to this 'one step forward, two steps
back' kind of scenario then you are not alone, as it
is a common challenge experienced by many people looking
to change their work for the better.
On
the 'Alchemy of Work Retreat' we will
reveal to you how to make this internal dance of transformation
move in your favour so that you can spend your time
doing work that brings you fully alive.
But
before we go on, the question you need to ask yourself
right now is...
"Are
you just taking the safe option in life?"
(which is actually the least safe path
to take...)
A
common misconception that people have around work is
that the safe option is the safe option. In a world
that is rapidly changing nothing could be further from
the truth.
In
times of great change the people who actually hold the
power are the ones who have the most choices. The ones
who experience struggle are the ones who have limited
the possibilities available to them.
Both
choice and possibility emanate out of having an adaptable
mind and spirit. We will be exploring both of these
qualities in great detail on the 'Alchemy of
Work Retreat.'
By
connecting fully with these two principles, the depth
and quality of your life could be totally unrecognisable
in just a few short months from now.
"Have
you reached the point where
you absolutely have to change?"
It
may come as no surprise to you that the people who actually
undergo radical transformations in the quality of their
work experience are the ones who reach the point where
something absolutely has to change.
It
also may come as no surprise to you that the people
who actually stay stuck doing work that they are poorly
suited are the ones who have found 'rock solid' reasons
for enduring discomfort.
It
really is this simple - if you 'want to change',
you simply have to 'want to change'.
It
is this red hot desire for change that will shift the
momentum of the universe into your favour. It is this
desire and this desire alone that is the starting point
of all deep healings and miraculous
transformations.
The
reality is that we all have a choice to make.
(a)
We can choose security; or
(b)
we can go after our true dreams and aspirations.
(Please
note: that the people who actually choose security most
often end up with neither).
So
if you really are genuine in your desire for
change, the best thing you can possibly do
for yourself is to start embracing the opportunities
that will pick you up and send you sailing in the direction
of your dreams.
"Your
path becomes clear when you have experienced guides
to show you the way."
When
you are setting off on a new journey of discovery, one
of your most valuable assets is an experienced guide
who can help show you the way.
On
the 'Alchemy of Work Retreat' you will
actually have three guides. All three of us have had
to face our own demons and overcome many challenges
to create work that is personally enriching and is impacting
positively on the lives of others.
We
have all made the transition into turning our greatest
passions into the work that we do.
Most
importantly for you, all three of us have invested
considerable time, energy and creativity to
come up with a blueprint that will empower you with
an amazing set of strategies so you can do the same.
The
teachings we will be sharing with you on the Retreat
are born out of the rich tapestry of our own life experiences
blended with the very latest mind, body and spirit technologies
(as well as some ancient yet infinitely powerful ones
as well).
Here's
a little more information about us and our personal
journeys.
