Morgana - Resolutions suck. Do this instead.

Resolutions suck. Do this instead.

Ganesha is a God of doorways, protection, and good fortune: an ideal ally for the turning of the year!

Maybe because we had the Winter Solstice in the Northern Hemisphere. Maybe because the new year (and my birthday) are coming up really soon… I took a break from business to start DREAMING about the future.

This is an essential step to Magic and Manifestation.

 

The one thing I can promise you my future does NOT hold is New Year Resolutions!

 

You may have noticed by now that resolutions almost never stick.

 

Frankly, I think New Year Resolutions are BS. They’re typically born from a place of failure, hurt, and self-abuse. And they set you up for more of the same.

 

I like to stack the deck for absolute success. The first step is to failure-proof your intention for the new year.

 

Here’s what I do…

Instead of resolutions I set a THEME for the year.

 

Setting a theme is like choosing a flavor for the year. A context. What the year will be about. It’s not a fixing thing. It’s a growing thing.

 

My theme often grows out of what I want to learn and experience this year. I also tune into what’s ready to happen. And EVERYTHING gets accomplished. It just happens. Every year. Without forcing or failure.

 

Unlike goals, which work best when they’re super specific, a Theme should be general, even vague.

 

Leave room to be surprised by what shows up and how the theme reveals itself.

 

In my experience, the surprises are much better than anything I imagined for myself. For example, last year my theme was “Foundation Building.”

 

I had no idea that would mean I would find–and buy–my dream house (at below my budget), set up house with my husband, and attract my superstar business support team.

 

Today I cracked open a new copy of my Financial Alchemy workbook for 2018, and went through my theme creation exercise (page 43).

 

==> My 2018 theme is EWOP.

 

“What does that mean?” you may ask.

 

This year’s theme is particularly personal and quirky. It has a lot to do with the Goddess work I’ve been doing in Bali, and where I want to go deeper next year.

 

Years ago I was sitting in a cafe after I had just completed my Ultimate Money Goddess retreat, and I got into a conversation with another diner.

 

He gave me a pair of sunglasses that said “EWOP,” an acronym for Everything Works Out Perfectly.

 

What a great way to look at the world!  Especially as I take on new projects that stretch me (like selling my father’s house and writing my new book), and as I keep up my personal fight for civil rights and election integrity in the United States.  When things look scary or discouraging, that’s when I want to look through the lense of EWOP: everything works out perfectly.

 


 

What is YOUR theme for the year?  Please share it below.

Allana Pratt, Intimacy Expert - Stuck In The Middle

Question: I don’t want to be in the middle of this! My boyfriend’s mother is sick and he wants to move back home to be closer to her. His mother HATES me and he wants me to go with him. The doctor’s are saying the outlook is not positive and I want him to be there for his mother but I don’t think I am a big enough person to put our issues aside to endure her. Am I horrible? Answer: Yes, you are a horrible horrible person and you’re going to hell. KIDDING!!!!!! You are magnificent and courageous and willing to tell the truth… and I find that inspiring I think it’s very important for people to be given the option to spend time with their parents as they die because sometimes people die suddenly and you never get a chance to say something; yet, your boyfriend will be able to feel good about the time, effort, and presence he gives her. And it’s also very important for you not to stop living or choose something that’s not a contribution for you and sacrifice yourself for another only t...

Allana Pratt, Intimacy Expert - Boyfriend Was Rude To Disabled Brother

Q: For about a year, I have been dating (what I thought) was a wonderful man.  I am very protective of my disabled brother so I am hesitant to introduce men in my life to him.  This guy was different so I wanted him to understand that if he was going to be a part of my life, he was going to be a part of my brother’s as well. The way he acted towards him was atrocious! He ignored him and if my brother made contact, he jumped as if my brother’s disability would rub off on him!  I thought he was the one but now I am not sure.  Thoughts? A: I’m so sorry love.  This experience must trouble your heart in two ways – how he treated your brother and disappointment for believing he was the one.  While I do not condone his behavior, I must say that people have a tendency to act unpredictable and/or unkind when they are around people who are different from them.  Through education and practice, people can change.  Would you be open to communicating with yo...
