LISTEN TO MY LATEST PODCAST EPISODE:
Nothing Found

And I don’t just mean in your business but in life as well.

Every day for the last week I’ve woken up in the morning to find an apple placed in front of the kettle.

It’s not a mystery. And it’s not that the fairies are coming out in the night and placing it there for me.

I know exactly how it gets there.

My lover places it there for me each morning before he leaves the house.

To some of you it may not appear to be a big deal. But to me… Him leaving the apple by the kettle means the world to me. And speaks volumes.

Why?
And why do i feel the need to write about that today?

Well.

A few reasons.
For both.

Allow me to explain.

Dan generally leaves the house pretty early in the mornings and usually long before I stumble out bleary eyed into the kitchen to make my morning pot of tea.

And it is Dan who has been placing the apple by the kettle for me each day.

He does this because he knows that some days I absolutely forget to eat. That I’ll get up and go straight to the office and start working.

And he also knows that I’m annoyed at myself right now because I’m carrying a few kg’s more than I’d like to be. I often go straight into blaming the red wine indulgences for that…

But, in truth it’s more likely because I’m overdoing the carbs AND not exercising as much as I know I should. As much as my body needs. As much as I need.

And maybe I’m not even overdoing the carbs. But the lack of exercise, the entire lack of movement is sure a shit not helping. 🙂

He also knows that I very, very, very rarely ever head into the office without first making myself a pot of tea.

Coffee lovers can’t get their day started without their caffine fix… I’m no different. Except that I am addicted to herbal tea.

I know there are worse addictions. And I’m not saying that my tea addiction is a bad thing.

But I’ll often drink pot after pot of tea and neglect to nurish myself with the real substance that food provides.

When I first saw the apple by the kettle I couldn’t help but smile.

And immediately called Dan to thank him and express my gratitude.

Because you see.

I am absolutely grateful.

And that leads me to the point of this post.

It’s the little things… The simple things. That make up the big things.

By Dan leaving the apple 🍎 in front of the kettle for me what he’s in effect doing is reinforcing how important I am to him. How important my health is to him. And, reminding me of just how important I and my health need to be to me.

He’s helping me to bring myself back to center.
He’s helping me to remind myself of what’s important.

And it’s those little things.
In your sexual relationships.
In your family relationships.
In your friendship relationships.
In your client relationships.
In your tribe relationships.

In your relationship with yourself.

THAT MAKE ALL THE DIFFERENCE

Sometimes we lose sight of the really important things.

Especially as entrepreneurs.

We put the blinkers on and have a one-eyed focus on our goals. And (sometimes) without even realising it we’re letting the little things in life pass us by.

We stop having breakfast.
We skip lunch.
We eat a shitty carb-filled dinner.

We stop doing the things that are important to us.
The things that we enjoy.
The things that keep us vibing high.

And just like you, I am not immune to doing that.

I love stand-up paddle boarding (SUP).
I love walking at the beach.
I love taking Baxtar (my boxer dog) walking on the promenade.
I love to take time out to hang out with the cows (yes, I said cows… they’re super soothing to be around).
I love listening to music.
I love reading.
I love massages.
I love getting my hair done.

In fact, more than having my hair done I LOVE LOVE LOVE having my hair washed. There’s something super special about the way in which hair stylists massage your scalp.

It’s blissful.
Relaxing.
Sensual

(I know, weird right but true nonetheless.)

And when I get focused on money goals.
When I get into creation mode.
When I’m locked down serving my clients and my tribe.

I sometimes forget to treat myself, to love myself, by doing those things that raise my vibration and that I love.

So when Dan leaves an apple out for me it reminds me to stop for a moment and remember that there is more to life, to happiness, to purpose than:

Managing my team
Creating content
Tribe building
Engagement
Showing up
Being a leader
Being inspirational
Success
Smashing goals

That as important as all of those things are to me and God knows they are super fucking important… And that I absolutely love doing them…

Doing that stuff alone and neglecting myself, my health and those things which I love and that I need to have in my every day so that I feel fulfilled…

IGNORING THOSE THINGS THAT FUEL ME…

It leaves me feeling empty.
It causes me to lose my drive.
It pushes me of course and away from that which I truly desire.

And here’s the thing…

The reason I went into business for myself 9 years ago was, not only that I said a big FUCK YOU to working for the man. It was that I wanted to create a life that allowed me to enjoy:

More freedom
More joy
More excitement
More fun
More adventure
More choice
More time
More money
More experiences
More holidays
More ME time

And when I stop doing all of those things:

When I lose sight of the bigger picture…
When I do less of what I want more of…
When I stop loving myself…
When I cease doing what raises my vibration…

It actually has a ripple effect across all areas of my life. Across all areas of my business.

When I stop doing all of those things:

I step out of alignment with what really matters to me.
I move, bit by bit, further away from my desires, passions and purpose.

So.

Next time you choose to not do that thing you love because you SHOULD be doing some busy work.

Next time you choose not to do that thing you love because society says you SHOULD be knuckled down, nose to the grindstone, hustling your arse off.

Next time you choose not to do that thing you love because you have a deadline to meet and if you don’t it’ll have ‘whatever’ negative impact on you and/or your business.

STOP!!

Pause for just a moment.

And.

Remember.

Just how much the Universe heaps love on those who love themselves.

Just how critical it is that you enjoy the fuck out of this life you are living.

Just how important it is that you actually do LIVE this life you’ve been given.

Just how much more productive and impactful you are when you are vibing high.

Just how good it fucking feels to show yourself some love and to treat yourself well.

That you are deserving.
That you are fabulous.

And

THAT LOVING YOURSELF IS SUPER CRITICAL

Taking 5 minutes to eat that apple will actually have massive positive reverberations (positive juju) throughout your entire being.

Throughout the Universe.

Remember.

It’s the little things.
The simple things.
That make up all of the big things.

And that because they are little things… That doesn’t make them any less important a piece of the puzzle to your big, grand plan.

Without the doing those little things you cut off the supply of energy to the big things. And they cannot grow into reality.

Love, Truth & Badassery,
Remember… You Have One Life. Hit The Fuckin’ Button!
