Morgana - My Year End Highlights & Learnings (2018)

I’ve been going through my annual process of reviewing the year that’s ending and dreaming up the new year with my New Year Manifestation tool.

I think 2018 was remarkable in that it didn’t feel particularly remarkable… until I looked closer.

Some big things that I expected to happen didn’t… and some other big things that I didn’t expect to happen did.

That’s why I recommend this end of year review. And because I also encourage you to share your highlights and learnings with the people in your life, I’ll share a few of them here, with you.

So many things came up when I did this exercise that I had to add extra rows. But here I’m going to condense everything into a few highlights and takeaways.

 

2018 Accomplishments & Learnings

  1. Appeared on Coast to Coast Radio with George Noory. Wow! What an experience! Really unexpected. And I learned that I could have a positive impact, gain clients, and sell an insane number of books even when I’m not at my best. (Middle of the night… I spent the next day beating myself up. Didn’t even notice that my book went to #1 on Amazon again and sold 700 copies.)
  2. Put my father’s house on the market. OMG. So much emotional stuff wrapped up in my dad’s house. (Dad has Alzheimer’s and has moved across country.) Lots of learning about adjusting expectations, appreciation for my stepmother, letting go and deciding to be okay no matter what happens. And my relationship with my stepmother has been a welcome surprise. I am so grateful for her.
  3. Released 15 pounds of “happy fat.” Dad’s illness has made health a #1 priority for me. I’ve successfully let go of at least 15 pounds that I had added as a result of my husband’s ridiculously good cooking and simply feeling safe and loved in our relationship. The big learning: I am loved no less when I’m overweight (something I needed to experience), and for the first time in my life I’m losing weight as an expression of self-love, not self-negation. (I have a whole history of eating disorders when I was younger. My mother told me no one would ever love me if I was fat. Really.) Mom was wrong, and it feels good to be lighter.
  4. Said NO a lot more. This is always challenging for me, but saying no–no to promoting friends, no to attending as many out of town retreats, no to requests that I really didn’t want to say yes to–freed up so much more time and energy to say yes to myself and the projects and causes that are closest to my heart. I cannot stress what a big inner shift this has been. And so magnetic to ideal clients just showing up.
  5. My first “Rich Witch” 5-Day online Challenge. FUN!!!!  Even more impactful than I had imagined it would be. I’m still getting emails from participants sharing success stories about new money, new jobs, new cars, new romances from that light and easy 5-Day challenge. Learning… this direction has traction. I like being Head Witch!

 

My biggest takeaways

  1. I am getting better at being on my own side—saying no to what doesn’t exalt me and what I value. Asking for what I want. Not rescuing all the time. Saying yes less often, as if I have a choice.
  2. I don’t need to do what others are doing. I do best when I follow my own inner guidance and desire and create new things for my ideal clients.
  3. Funny thing: those people I used to look at as better or more successful than myself, their businesses have been imploding or even ended this year. I just plug along with a happy life.

 

What’s Next?

  1. Money Goddess Retreat in Bali 2019
  2. Crazy, Sexy, Midlife Love Radio show with Devin
  3. Devin’s movie deal for his book (we’re in negotiations)
  4. Buy a house in Mexico for retreats and VIP weekends, short term vacation rentals
  5. My new invitation-only coaching program for my favorite clients

SMART Goals 101: Goal Setting Examples, Templates, and Tips - Brian Tracy

I think you’ll agree with me when I say: We’ve all heard that SMART goals are important . But a lot of people are left with questions about them, for example: What exactly are they? How do we use them correctly? Are they really contributing to your success? Here’s the deal: When it comes to achieving success, one of the most important steps that you can take is setting good goals. It is also important to recognize, though, that not all goals are created equal. In this article, we’ll take a look at a special class of goals called SMART goals and how you can use them to heighten your chances of success. FREE SUCCESS TOOL: Brian Tracy’s 14-Step-Goal-Setting Guide What is a Goal? A goal can be any objective that you set for yourself and push yourself to achieve. Sometimes that goal may be small (like waking up an hour earlier than you normally do) and sometimes it may be larger (like earning a promotion). But here’s the kicker: While having goals of all kinds is almost

bosanchez - The Bias of Fathers

One day, I was at a Christmas party. And parents were forcing their small kids to sing, bribing them with lollipops to banana splits to doll houses to Boracay vacations. One father — a friend of mine whose name I won’t divulge as it would be hazardous to my health — brought his little five-year-old daughter to the front. Because he even had a Minus One prepared, we thought, “She must really be a good singer.” So everyone clapped their hands and cheered as the music started. Then the five-year-old began to sing. Or at least made some kind of sharp noise.  But she didn’t get one key right. The cute little girl was absolutely tone deaf. From beginning to end, she sounded so awful, the experience was similar to having an endoscopy without the anesthesia. But the father was right beside me, still taking photos, still smiling from ear to ear, his eyes glued to his little daughter. He looked at me and smiled, “She may not sound right, but can you see how lovely she sways her hips?” Th
