The Truth About Success and Hard Work

EP75: Does hard work ALWAYS equal success or can you actually DO LESS and still have amazing success?

EP75: Does hard work ALWAYS equal success or can you actually DO LESS and still have amazing success?

I pulled an Energy Oracle card from my deck titled "Action" to inspire this episode and it has a 2 horses galloping, one in front that is white and one that is following in black. The white horse implies intuition and taking action based on your inner voice. And the black horse implies the outer work - the actual tasks that we are conditioned to do that often overtake our life.

What I've learned is that my busy work, while very satisfying in many ways (because I love to check off tasks as I complete them!), was actually suppressing my inner voice that would have guided and enlightened me to do things differently and better. And by applying this inner work daily, meaning intentionally putting inner work on my To Do list, I've found so much more success this past year.

In October and November, I had my most successful months, in terms of revenue, since I left my corporate job to become a full time entrepreneur! And I did this by doing less of the outer work and more of the inner work. Not only did I make more, but I worked less and have felt a complete contentment I've not felt before.

I've been focused on inner work for awhile now, but the past 2 months, I've doubled down with more self care (spa day, meditations, affirmations, visioning, and journaling) and less computer time, especially on the weekends.

I love what I do so it's hard to break away from it but spending more time connecting to my spirit and being in the NOW really does work... I've heard this from my business/spiritual mentor for 2 years and now I'm actually reaping the benefits and best of all, I'm feeling so much peace. I highly recommend it!
