Hi
It's a misty morn here in the village and I'm writing to you as I sip my second cup of Twinings tea.
This week we've been celebrating my youngest daughter's 14th birthday & next week we're
heading into school half-term so we'll be off for a Vintage Market themed day in London
and I think a spot of James Bond might be the ticket later in the week too!
(Love Daniel Craig ;)
I've designed my work around my life, not my life around my work like I used to and I've
got to tell you it is so much more satisfying in every way & I hope I've inspired you to do
the same.
This week's challenge is about finding your purpose and I give you some questions to ponder
at the blog: How Do I Find My Purpose
Love and success
Rachel
p.s The Niche Connection sessions are helping people to get unstuck but I'm fully booked until November so if you haven't scheduled yet & would like to work with me on aligning your niche with your bigger purpose you can get the full scoop here while it's still available: Niche Connection Session
p.p.s Once you've registered please just send an email with some possible dates and times for the week of November 5th. I'm not sure if I'll be offering more one on ones at such a steal after that so move on this now if you know you want this.

How Do I Find My Purpose
You may be asking yourself this and going round and round in circles as so many creative people do.
It's the optimistic voice in your head urging you on to greater things, versus the inner critic who crushes your dreams and frightens you into staying and playing small.
"After all," the inner critic says, "what if it doesn't work out? You'll look like a right fool then, silly."
And so you create your own trap to get stuck in.
You can FEEL you are here to do something more meaningful than you're doing right now and although you may not realise it, you long to find your niche and align it with your life purpose.
You sign up for this and sign up for that, because you're on the path of the seeker.
You buy this course and that course and discover some very useful tactics and start to understand how to be a more effective marketer.
But although you devour some wonderful morsels, you're overfed but undernourished and go full circle back to feeling hollow and not in flow with your passionate purpose.

Please note that many of the links to 3rd-party products that appear
in this ezine and on my websites are affiliate links that will pay me a
commission if you invest in them. It's a win-win because you don't pay
more but I get a thank you for sending them new customers. That's how
affiliate marketing works and you can do it too. I only ever recommend
a product or program that I have used or would use myself. My role is to
save you the time and energy of trawling
through all the 'stuff' out there
and bringing the very best of what works directly to your inbox. Thanks
for your support because it enables me to provide you with this high quality
complimentary ezine.
