What Are You?

I’m not asking WHO are you, I am asking WHAT are You? Ask yourself what you are right now, what you are committed to doing and feeling, and what kinds of ways you are going to be today. I am asking you to ask yourself WHAT will I BE today, and HOW will I be in the world?

The world around you only sees what you do and how you are being. You don’t get points for pure intention, you only get credit (and cred) for what you actually do and for the ways you can be. Examples of ways of being are Happy, Focused, Friendly, Committed, Excited, Passionate, Relentless, etc. (I love etc. It’s the etc. in Life that always gets my juices flowing. Big Time.)

As always, you get to decide how you will be, who you will be, and what you are committed to. You are writing your biography every day. What people will say about you in years to come depends upon what you do and how you are being today and every day. Get committed, and follow through.

Just like Walt Whitman, you contain multitudes. Every human has enormous possibilities for good, bad, and mediocre. If you have ever been courageous, even for a second, you are courageous. If you have achieved anything, you are an achiever. And if you have confidence in any area of your Life, you are confident. You contain multitudes.

Mediocre is easy. Extreme good is difficult because it involves more sacrifice and more risk. I like to deal with outliers because extraordinary is more interesting. Look, you’re going to live this life anyway–why not make it a fabulous life? Why not go down in the history of your world as having been exceptional, great, and inspiring!

In my work with clients, I make it more possible for them to connect to their greatness. I help them gain access to their infinite Best Self and most Confident Courage. With practice, they more easily activate their personal power, and their success multiplies over time. When you get better in one area, you get better in every area of your daily experience. This has been proven thousands of times in client sessions and beyond. (Remember the etc. I mentioned earlier? The etc. is what happens after clients begin their Life’s work with me.)

Write a list of all the things you are. Write down all of your positive characteristics. Don’t leave anything out. Carry the list with you and add to it each and every time you realize new ones. Let this list remind you that You contain multitudes!

You are multi-faceted—own that. This can become a very long list of things that you know about yourself, and this exercise is one more step on your Path of Self-Awareness.

Here’s a sample list of Ways of Being:
