It was game three of the 1932 World Series, the iconic Babe Ruth’s last, and he was up to bat. He said he allowed the first two strikes against him because he didn’t like the pitches.
What happened next became a highlight in the history of sports. He pointed two fingers to center field past the flag poll, and legend has it that he said that’s where he was going to hit the ball.
Not only did he do it, he hit a home run. The Yankees won the series.
Have you considered that you can call your own shots in your life and business?
A client took this story to heart.
She went to a business Happy Hour and discovered they were handing out tickets to win gifts.
When she expressed her delight that she’d win a door prize, the woman at registration said that she’d have a chance at winning a door prize.
The woman replied, “No, I’m going to win a door prize.”
And she did. Later, she said, “I did what Babe Ruth did. I pointed at what I wanted, so it happened.”
She’s getting similar results in her business. She sets her goals and achieves them. Her business has multiplied in a few short months as well as her joy in living.
Your TIP is to identify something you choose and to allow yourself to receive it.
Here are a few steps that can help you.
- Make a choice. What do you choose to receive? Now you’ve got a direction to focus on, where to place your attention.
- Believe you are powerful and can receive what you choose… because you are! Right now.
- Allow yourself to receive.
- Trust in yourself and the process.
- Let it go. Forget about it. Don’t try to figure out how you’re going to manifest it. Be free of concern. Instead anticipate that good things always are working in your favor.
- Take inspired action.
A key is to feel good about what you’re doing, your business and life, regardless of your circumstances!
This is most easily accomplished when you let go of resistance – a.k.a. focusing on what you don’t like, what’s not working, who or what’s bugging you, complaining, and fear of “what if” something bad happens in the future.
It might be easier if you think of it like turning channels on a radio. You have to tune into the right frequency to get the channel you want. You can’t find an FM station if you’re on AM frequencies.
- You can do this, even if your mind chatter tells you to be afraid, what if it doesn’t work or to remember past failures or hurt. It just takes practice. Be patient. Even if you catch yourself being negative and then you stop that thinking one second faster than you did before, that’s progress!
- You can tune into your success in whatever way success means to you: financial, relationships, wellness and happiness.
- You can do this because your Essence, the core of who you are, is always tuned in to all success 24/7, and you have 24/7 direct access to your Essence. Why? How? Because it’s YOU.
Once you get the knack, life and business are so much more fun… easier, fulfilling and lucrative.
