“Some people are so poor, all they have is money.”
- Bob Marley
As I think about the work I am and will be doing with LifeDesign+, I believe the majority of the people I will work with will understand that while we cannot escape the need for money and that having money is not bad, it also will not lead to a sense of purpose and fulfillment. Purpose and fulfillment are found by finding, living, and evolving with your authentic life. Through personal experience and observation, I know you can have purpose, fulfillment, and money—they are not mutually exclusive. I also know you don’t have to find purpose and fulfillment first for the money to follow—although this is one way. It is also possible to accumulate money to seek purpose and fulfillment, aligning the three. There is no “right path”. The beauty of LifeDesign+ is that the relationship will allow me to meet people where they are. They can be seeking purpose and fulfillment by moving closer to their authentic lives to align and grow their finances, or they can be the version of “poor” described by Bob Marley, having the money and looking for their authentic life. I’ll be writing more and updating my website to bring more attention to LifeDesign+ (and a couple of variations—one specifically for my financial advisor peers and another to act as an outsourced life planner for financial advisor firms) now that I have confirmed that path that I am on is the right one for the present. If you find your Self seeking to find purpose and fulfillment by moving closer to your authentic life in hopes that it aligns and improves your finances, which it will, or you already have financial success but lack purpose and fulfillment, I’m only a reply to this email or DM away to chat about LifeDesign+. I’ll be here when you’re ready. See you tomorrow and keep pursuing, JC |
I'm on a mission to help more people find and live their authentic life. Check out my Daily Notes where I write a short note each day about the connection of spirit, mind, body and money on the Pursuit of your authentic life.
Sometimes the omens sent to help guide you show up in different ways—not always the obvious way we’d expect. Seeing bald eagles flying overhead or resting in a tree has become one of my most powerful omens. When I see a bald eagle in the wild I know exactly why I’m seeing and what it is telling me. I don’t really look for them, but some days I’m looking for confirmation from the Divine that I am open and more aware of the possibility of seeing my favorite bird. This week I had one of those...
There will be times when you will need to jump into action without warning. An idea will come to you and it will feel right. Most people will sit on it telling their Self they’ll do it later.Most people will think of all the reasons it won’t work.Most people will never take action. In The Creative Act, Rick Rubin explains that ideas will move on to someone else if action is not taken—this is why you see someone having success with an idea you had. The idea came to you, you weren’t ready to...
