The Power of FOCUS

March 8, 2021 by Lori Leave a Comment

You get what you focus on. You’ve heard that advice, right?

It reminds us that, to begin living the life we really want, we have to start doing those things that will get us there.

There was a time my life was extremely out of balance. All I could see were my struggles and didn’t have any solutions. It kept me stuck. Focusing on the struggles kept me in a state of hopelessness and defeat. I had to stand up inside myself and be determined to find a better way. I knew the life I was living wasn’t meant for me. I took one step and then another and kept going. Sometimes I fell back and then I got back up and didn’t give up on myself, my dreams, and the life I truly desire.

Maybe you’re not where you want to be yet, but at least we are not where we used to be. It’s never too late to live the life you were born to live. The good news is you don’t have to figure it out and do it all on your own.

Now I am a Certified Oola Life Coach. I help clients determine what’s not working for them in the areas of fitness, finance, field (career), family, faith, friends and fun – then correct those stressors and bring about the lifestyle, relationships and financial security they need to be happy, balanced and growing.

So what could the OolaLife look like for you?

 

I’m challenging you to decide, then focus on getting this life you really want.

Let’s Get Started: Decide What You Want

Have you ever thought about the lifestyle, activities, wealth, longevity, family relationships and other parts of a fantastic life that YOU want?

If you haven’t, that’s the first place to start. Why? Because in order to get what you want, you have to KNOW what you want. If you’re going to focus your time and energy, it’s got to be awesome and a major life improvement for you. For instance, do you want to . . .

Fitness: Be date-night ready with tons of energy?

Finance: Eliminate all debt and have money to spare?

Family: Have a rockin’ good marriage + amazing kids, too?

Field: Find a dream job or start a business you love?

Faith: Start an exciting new faith-based project?

Friends: Find new friends and mentors who believe in you?

Fun: Crush those bucket-list adventures you’ve dreamed of?

Whatever inspires you, why not share it below? (But hey, don’t reveal super-personal details!)

To help you achieve your own OolaLife, I’ve joined forces with Dave and Troy – The OolaGuys – to privately coach you and support you via a TRANSFORMATION Program designed to transform your life, your finances, your relationships and more. Click here to get started. I am glad I took my first step on the journey to transformation. You will be glad you did too. I believe in you and want to see you win.

Much Love,

Lori

INVISIBLE NO MORE

February 1, 2019 by Lori 1 Comment

I have been silent long enough.  No more staying in the shadows.  I decided to be brave and vulnerable and share my story with you.

For most of my life I felt invisible.  So, I stayed in my shell and kept quiet.  I was taught it wasn’t okay to speak up or interrupt.  Daring to interrupt was the only way to interject since I often couldn’t get a word in edgewise.  Still, no one heard my voice.  I thought my voice didn’t matter.  Guess what?  That was a LIE!

For a long time, my desire was to write a book.  Writing is my passion.  I asked myself was it possible and how do I make it happen? 

Every voice matters and so does your voice.  I speak mostly from the written page.  Writing is a great way to gather and complete my thoughts without being interrupted, hurried, or being talked over.  Why am I telling you this?

ANNOUNCEMENT: It’s possible and my book is ready!  http://bit.ly/PreOrderBookNow

Let me share an excerpt with you from my book, Hole to Whole:

When I got home from school, Mom was often visiting with the neighbor as they sat at the kitchen table.  I stood silently by her side waiting for permission to speak.  Not being acknowledged, I began to wonder if I really was invisible.  I would then disappear into my room.

People enjoyed my quiet, gentle, caring nature.  Being a good listener and having a nice smile were compliments I received regularly.  That was nice, but I knew I needed to come out of my shell.  Like a turtle, I slowly began to develop better communication skills during my adult years.

The way I was programmed from past experiences required rewiring my thoughts and beliefs.  All I know is I didn’t want to stay that invisible girl any more.

Have you ever felt invisible or that your voice is not heard?  Have you ever wanted to write a book?  You can relate, right?  I appreciate your being here as I share my journey of how I turned the dream of writing a book into reality.  There are many twists and turns to my story; stay tuned.
