O Christmas tree

Sometimes I think my ideal job would be to decorate Christmas trees in themes. Like, if you had a winery, you'd hire me to give your tree a wine theme. Or, if you owned a bridal shop, you'd hire me to do up a tree in pristine white and crystal. That would have me shopping for ornaments a lot, something that gives me great pleasure.

I wonder if I'd get sick of standing back and admiring my work before placing a few more bows or shimmery glass balls on the branches that looked bare. Or turning on the lights to see the final dazzling product.

I bet not.

My Game Plan

It's time to complete the circle. I've been hinting around at how I manifested a great professional opportunity. And so here it is, the debut of my life coaching column for FOX Business:

http://www.foxbusiness.com/personal-finance/lifestyle-money/travel-lifestyle/article/new-column-business-life-coaching_386466_22.html

I have been preparing for a life coaching column for a while now and I love the idea of expressing myself like this on a regular basis. I cleared the space in my life and in it came. It's not magic, it just feels that way.

If you're so inclined, please click over every Wednesday and Friday for a fresh dose of "Game Plan." It's part of my Universal Flow.

Frankie says

Two days ago I wrote about not having Internet at home at the moment and how disconcerting it is. Yet I heard the big message: Relax when you're home.

But now I think the message is even bigger than that.

Relax. Don't always be so intense and driven.

Relax. Don't feel like you have to announce to prospective dates, employers, clients that you are available and interested. Let them inquire once in a while.

Relax. It's a confident thing to do.

Relax. It's a healthy thing to do.

Relax. You're doing great at life.

Relax.

Relax ...

Life's riches

I signed a new life coaching client today. Another kindred spirit.

It's like I've set up a magnet over here in Hoboken and it's drawing witty, smart, cool people who want to live life a little fuller. This one came via a referral from a former client who happens to be witty, smart and cool.

I am open to receive life's riches and they are coming in droves.

It fills me with gratitude.

Couch

The Universe has decided I should be without Internet in my home this week. While it is inconvenient, I have already deciphered the big message.

Relax when you're home.

Relax, baby.

Relax ...

Mani-FEST

Free again
Lucky, lucky me
Free again
Time to call up all the crowd
Raise the roof and shout out loud
Time to have a party
-- from Free Again by Barbra Streisand

A few weeks ago I made up my mind to leave my day job. It has served me well. I cleared space in my head and made the decision. Two days later, an ad for a terrific-sounding life coaching job appeared in my email box. Over a week later, I received an email regarding the possibility of being a columnist -- a long-held dream.

I wrote my resignation letter early last week and dated it for Friday, November 30. The next day I got the column offer. I'm still waiting to hear about the life coaching job. But in the meantime, great new clients have appeared.

I can't stress it enough. I cleared the space first. Then came the good stuff. Manifesting at its finest.

I am so free.
