According to Wikipedia Thompson was a good but not outstanding scholastic sprinter; her best result at the Jamaican Boys and Girls Championships came in 2009, when she placed fourth in the Class Two 100 metres in 12.01.
In the 100 metres women’s final in the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro she won the gold medal.
Imagine if Thompson lost her focus just because she looked at where she was rather than where she was heading.
It’s simple. When we focus on the right things, we can do great things. When we lack focus we will feel disappointed with our results.
Now here is your slap, I couldn’t choose between which slap…so enjoy

Have you ever seen a car you have wanted drive by and park close to where you’re at, and when the person gets out of the car, you feel a little resentment towards that person? Has that ever happened to you? Or, if and when you were single, you saw this handsome man in a restaurant sitting, then his wife or girlfriend walks up and sits down and the same thing happens, you hate the girl for having the guy? To me and many other humans, it is only natural to feel resentment or hatred towards those who have nice or attractive things and people in their lives?
I know I used to be guilty of this. I had to learn that if I ever expected to have those things in my life, that I would have to shift my way of thinking. If there is a person that is having great results in business, better than my results, I had to learn to be happy and excited for that person instead of feeling jealousy and envy for what she has.
In Huna Philosophy, which is better known as Hawaiian spiritualism, it is understood that when you see something you want, bless it and bless that person who has it. If it is that new car you desire, bless that car and bless the person driving it. If it is the beautiful man you want, bless the handsome man and the woman beside him. By doing this, you attract these things into your life.
We’ve all been there (just some of us are more honest about owning it). When you feel that low vibration, smile and learn that the universe is telling you that yours is coming so bless others so nothing blocks it.
Bless others and you will be blessed x
For bonus points – Write or send a short letter to tell people how much you bless and acknowledge them – you don’t have to send it, choose someone who is successful in any arena
Follow the 6 other Huna principles
Here’s to staying confident consistently ✊

Today I want to talk about POD – Point of difference. Your point of difference is how you stand out in the sea of noise, why you love yourself more than anything. With a world telling us we need to think, look and act the same, POD is all about appreciating how uniquely wonderful you are.
It’s like a laugh in the sea of sadness or a cry at the top of a mountain of prosperity, it’s POD!
Whenever I prepare for a speech I jump for joy at the prospect of feeling the fear and doing it anyway.
You see, on one hand, it absolutely petrifies me that I have to share my innermost thoughts with the world. What if they judge me? What if they think I am weird? My what if’s are the pain relief my brain likes to feel to stop me from taking action and backing out.
My inner child is filled with inquisitiveness and always challenges me with the other hand. I get giddy just thinking about the research I get to do on myself and on others, it excites that I am on the cusp of at of finding out something new and I am about to pass it on to others, I like to call it leaving a legacy. Because when you share what you know, you leave a legacy behind. Luckily for me, my inner child wins over my what if’s, my dream is bigger than my fear. I hope that today’s post gives you some fuel to stay consistently confident.
The three point of differences I want to touch upon is:
Experience
Value & Beliefs
Attitude/Outlook
Whether you are positioning yourself as the ideal problem solver for your client or are answering the question “why are you ideal for this job?” this is where your experience comes in….
Experience
We all have different filters, perceptions, insights which make us unique because of our experience.
You gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You are able to say to yourself, ‘I lived through this horror. I can take the next thing that comes along.’ Eleanor Roosevelt

Experiences can cut you up or lift you up. It was 2009 when I found myself homeless, homeless with two young kids and not much in my pocket, it’s a story that has many levels, perhaps a story I will leave for another day. However, my main point is that in that experience I grew as a person, as a better person.
I knew that the gift in that experience was not in self-pity but in gratefulness. I made a decision at that point of time to volunteer to serve people that were in worse scenarios than mine. It’s been my fifth year volunteering with Crisis at Christmas and it is one of the best things I have exchanged my time for. Being homeless and connecting with people to give them hope just felt like it was the right thing to do.
It was Einstein that said “the only source of knowledge is experience”. In his 2005 inagrual speech at Stanford University, Steve Jobs said “you can’t connect the dots looking forward, you can only connect the dot’s looking back”. From all the conversations I have had over the last five years with guests at the homeless shelter I have learnt to smile instead of cry, be compassionate instead of selfish and to edify others instead of bringing them down. I truly believe that the path to the best version of me is due to that experience of being homeless, it allowed me to connect with source.
Our experiences don’t predict our future it is just an experience, a lesson we can use to quantum leap. And don’t be fooled into thinking you need other people to approve you, to tell you who you are. Don’t be trapped by Dogma – living the results of other people’s thinking about you, have your own values and beliefs. Values and belief are important which my next point will explain….
Values & Beliefs
I take responsibility for where I am with my life, point blank. My experiences will no doubt change me but I do not let my experiences reduce me. My experiences help to shape my values and beliefs. The one consistent value and belief I have always had is to be kind. Be kind to yourself, be kind to others, just be kind. The values you have are so important and not having a value system is like being in a boxing ring for the heavyweight title with no gloves and then wonder why you didn’t win the title. Or placing a house of cards on a crooked table and then wondering why they keep falling down.
Attitude/Outlook
Your attitude affects your altitude.
It’s having an attitude of gratitude when you are feeling doubtful and sad about your circumstances.
It is about filling the gap for someone else and seeing how you can serve them.
It’s about journaling and releasing anger onto pen and paper and burning it (disclaimer do not burn paper without supervision, it is dangerous)
It’s about not taking feedback personally and seeing how to uplevel with a compassionate humble heart.
When you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change – Wayne Dyer
The most effective way I have positivity changed my attitude is by reframing everything. I like to call it the reframe game which you can read more about on my previous post. Basically, it is stepping back putting and framing the situation so you put the situation in perspective to better serve you.
My last thoughts on your point of difference (well sort of)
We all share the same destination – death! The single best invention of life, it clears out the old and brings in the new. But you are alive now and your experience, values/beliefs and overall attitude on life are a few ways to discover how to live that authentic life of abundance. So I encourage YOU to implement your POD today!
I always see being spiritual as someone who believes in God, Source or the Universe …believes in something that is higher than themselves is in charge.
There are spiritual practices to getting everything you want. Let’s get to it…
1. Becoming Aware of Your Highest Self
This awareness helps you to view yourself as more than merely a physical creation, which leads
to…
2. Trusting Yourself Is Trusting the Wisdom That Created You
This principle establishes you as one and the same with the universal God force, which leads to…
3. You Are Not an Organism in an Environment: You Are an Environorganism
Say what? This principle establishes that there is no separation between you and anything else outside you in the material world, which leads to…
4. You Can Attract to Yourself What You Desire
This principle establishes your power to attract that which you are already connected to, which leads to…
5. Honouring Your Worthiness to Receive
If you haven’t read good enough post go do it after this! This principle affirms that you are worthy of all that is attracted to your life, which leads to…
6. Connecting to the Divine Source with Unconditional Love
This principle creates an awareness of the significance of accepting your manifestations with absolute love, which leads to…
7. Meditating to the Sound of Creation
This principle gives you the tools for vibrating yourself to the very sounds that are in the world of
creation. These are the tools for attracting and manifesting, which lead to…
8. Patiently Detach from the Outcome
As Elsa from Frozen would say “let it go”… This principle emphasises the need for removing demands and becoming infinitely patient
Here is the song with lyrics…sing along now!!
…which leads to
9. Reacting to Your Manifestations with Gratitude and Generosity
The attitude for gratitude is real in this one! This principle teaches the value of taming the ego and being thankful and in service to others with your manifestations.
Want to learn more get Wayne Dyer’s book which goes deeper into the content. It is a great read!
I can’t possibly charge that amount who will buy?
People will think of me as this type of person if I do this
No one’s bought my course that must mean it is shit?
It all translates to I am not good enough
My worth is based on my results
I do not feel worthy
One of my superpowers is cutting through bullshit so I have to challenge them on their thinking and one of the first questions (one of many) that I proceed to ask is…
According to who, who is telling you that you are not good enough?
They have no authority or proof and if you are feeding this lie then….
It is time to unpack the lie about “not being good enough”
Here is the thing about being good enough:
Feeling good enough about yourself…can be like the different states of water and ice.
It can change depending on your environment. More than likely your state of being changes depending on the energy you have around you. That feeling of not being good enough, that vibration could be someone else’s thoughts and feelings, their negative energy messing with yours.
This good enough thing is forever changing, so we must stay grounded and realise who we are and how much power we hold.
Still need some evidence on why being in the state of not good enough doesn’t serve you?
If you allow this negative “not good enough” energy to take over your body, it will change your state and present itself in different ways. You might experience:
? Heavy, dull pain in the body
? Negative thoughts about oneself
? Tearfulness, despondency
? Social anxiety
? Loss of life purpose, diminished interest in life
? Suicidal thoughts
The actions that these states may bring may result in:
? Withdrawal from relationships
? Abuse of alcohol or drugs
? Diminished emotional expression (resting face anyone)
? Continually verbalisation of negative thoughts
? Continous giving rather than being in the receiving mode, leading to burnout
? Tiredness
? Neglect of self-care/activities of daily living, such as showering, eating, and washing their clothes
Nothing about not feeling good enough brings any benefit to your life, it doesn’t serve you!
Accept that being “good enough” for who you are is enough. Because….
The whole good enough thing is overhyped.It’s something you choose at each moment, something you make a decision to work at and own minute by minute, a trust in the universe that you are meant to be here. Meant to be you and no one else. And that you are enough and have everything you need. Trust that the thing you desire, the thing that was put there in the first place by the universe will manifest.
5 Ways to Feel Good Enough (and one tip if that doesn’t work)
1. To feel good enough increase your vibration
.
So here is the science bit. The dopamine and serotonin released when feeling happy, grateful, proud, excited, or compassionate can shift your opinions as well as your spirit. You feel better physically which leads to feeling better about yourself.Do activities that help you stay in a high-frequency state it makes all the difference.
2. Live in alignment and feel good enough
When your gut doesn’t feel right listening to it will save you a whole lot of heartache. When you worry about what others think, you are judging yourself against their values. Instead, discover what is most important to YOU and have the courage to stay on that path. Be kind to yourself whenever you get distracted, congratulate yourself that you are aware of it and are moving forward. Then reset your goals to stay true to who you are when you are doing what makes you feel fulfilled.
3. Remind yourself that The Universe loves you
It’s time you accept the love whether you believe in God, The Universe or your higher self, the love remains, it is unconditional!!!
Call on The Universe – it ALWAYS has your back. Work that faith muscle it will only get stronger.
4. Feel good enough by reprograming your mind
I teach my clients how to declutter their mind 24 hours a day so that when they feel that not good enough thought creeping in they are armed and know exactly how to win, that’s the power of reprogramming your mind.
5. Ask yourself questions to seek the truth to feel good enough
Positive affirmations have their place and I am sure you have heard of them.
So I am going to throw something new into the mix. Interrogative self-talk will activate your brain and get you into problem-solving mode. Asking yourself specific questions will help you achieve that goal.
So those are the five ways that my clients work with me to help them live their version of bliss.
Are you at the end of your tether with stopping and starting, being high and low?
Want to knock that ‘good enough’ crap out of your system?
Want to see consistent results?
Then I offer you an invitation to hop on a call for a chemistry session.
Schedule your time right now and let’s see what we can do about that good enough crap with a chemistry call to see if we can work together. This is not about giving you more information, you haven’t got an information problem, logically you know you are enough.
