Be Who You Are

Is your energy fast or slow?
Do you like to work or to play?
Are you needing the security of a steady paycheck?
Or do you like the motivation of being an entrepreneur?
Are you a self promoter and self starter?
Do you sit back and wait for direction?
Are you capable of living on less until you have more?
Are you able to attract the people and resources you need?
Are you dependent or independent?
Are you an extrovert or introvert?
Do you learn by watching, study, listening and experiencing?
Are you capable of multitasking or do you need focus?
Are you willing and happy to work as much as you need to get the job done?
Is it inspiring to always have something more to do?
Do you get bored and depressed with the same thing every day?
Or do you get tired and depressed when you have too much to do everyday?

I am seeing also in our Money seminars that few people have the energy, faith and creative abilities required to be successful as entrepreneurs.
Yet many people are attracted to self-employment because they like the freedom and independence.
Sometimes we are fooled by only looking at the qualities in a person, job, home or experience with blinders on seeing only what we covet and desire.
To look at the whole picture, we must be willing to neutralize our preferences, be hones about ourselves and be willing to stop fantasizing, wishing, hoping and praying for something to be what it is not.

Seeing what is with gratitude opens the door to clear and accurate choices.
Be who you are. Know what you really want.
Create a life in which you have what supports you in being You.

Loving you,
Betty Lue
