Success Without Sacrifice
Happy ‘I am in Control’ Day! I’m sending you a quick message of encouragement and empowerment!
When we live life knowing we are in control, we are putting our crowns back on our head, standing tall and stepping into our power.
You are so very powerful!
The power to change someone is an illusion. If you desire to change someone you may find yourself in a constant state of struggle, resistance or mental chaos.
Our real power is to change ourselves.
Years ago I stopped watching news every day. It was getting me down and something had to change. So I changed a habit.
I distanced myself from people, places and things that didn’t help me get to where I want to be tomorrow. I changed my surroundings.
The secrete sauce to having the biggest impact outward is to work inward. Be true to your beliefs by creating alignment with all thoughts and actions.
“I can not change anyone so I choose to change myself.
I acknowledge this and take full responsibility for where I am today.
My actions will inspire someone else to be the change they seek. “
So… I say this from a place of love, perhaps a bit of tough love: It’s not them… it’s you.
If you blame them for making you feel a certain way then you gave them some of your power.
That can be a tough pill to swallow. When we shine that light on ourselves, it can be scary what we might pull out from the dark.
But, when we cultivate this we see things differently. Our heart softens, we become more compassionate, more open to change, giving and forgiving.
When develop a positive relationship with ourselves and our success in business, leadership and life is a product of that relationship.
When develop a negative relationship with ourselves and our success in business, leadership and life is a product of that relationship.
It starts with ONE (you). From there, it ripples to ALL.
It’s here! Can you feel it and smell it all around? The Fall season is upon us as we begin our final leg of this most interesting year.
In the Fall a tree will loose its leaves. The leaves wobble to the ground as they begin to settle on the ground. We are comparably those leaves.
Perhaps you’ve been feeling a bit unsettled as wobble through the season. Have you noticed a feeling of an unsettled mind recently?
This month I’m reading the book, Deep Work by Cal Newport. He writes about the lost art of long bouts of time in deep thought on one subject.
He says that when we can practice Deep Work, then we build the skill of attention and this increased attention bleeds into the shallow moments and we more skillfully change the outcome of anything.
He even goes as far as to scientifically prove this!
So in this month of October, what will you be paying attention to?
When we strengthen the skill of attention, we can produce more positive outcomes!
I know this might seem weird coming from a Gal that preaches stillness of the mind, but we are striving to find a balance and harmony as we don’t want the mind to become dull.
What ever you decide to focus on during October, keep you attention on your intention!
Pause Frequently,
Erika
P.S.
Meditation is a form of concentration on one point. It allows us to dive into deep work inward. Meditation will also allow you to clear the mind so you can create clarity in your deep thoughts.

During the months of July and August I self quarantined quite a bit as I was frequently sneaking off to Dallas to film our new Talk Show! So I kinda became a hermit but a very healthy hermit.
Earlier this year, I became a co owner of the new Sawubona Sister Gathering, LLC.
We are a Sisterhood with a heart lead purpose of seeing women for exactly who they are. We are a platform for women to dive deeper into relevant topics without the feeling of judgement.
Our Talk show is a platform for these topics and we want you to come sit on the couch with us and chat! This new adventure is an extension of what Modern Yinster offers. Every experience at Sawubona Sister Gatherings will leave you feeling connected and full!
This Sunday, September 20th, we will be unveiling our new live-streaming show! I’d love for you to be there why we explain how this came about, back stage whoopsie – daisies and how to get this show into your living room!
