Your Story Creates Your Value

“Did you know the most successful presentations are about 65% stories and 25% figures, with the remainder an explanation of your credibility?”

Even though a presentation needs many elements to create magic, it’s hard to deny the power a great story can add to a presentation.

A well-crafted story can take your audience far away from the world of business jargon and inspire them to truly feel your message, imagine scenarios, and envision fresh ideas. As a result of your story and the emotional impact of your tale, your audience will often remember the overall message of your presentation for many years to come.

For your presentations, consider starting with a story, ending with a story, or weaving a narrative throughout your entire presentation; whichever option you choose, your audience will relish the experience.

Here are a few more ideas on creating an effective presentation – it’s very important to develop your own lexicon; the language connected to your brand. This is what strengthens your story and creates quality engagement – You must first and foremost become a committed and talented storyteller of your own Brand!

• Live within your brand’s philosophy by telling your story well and only speaking that particular language around your audience/tribe/community.

• To serve your audience well, they have to recognize your lexicon as their language too – this is a large part of identifying who your tribe actually is.

• You must create and know the lexicon and story of your own Brand so well that you become fluent with its story and message, which helps others to pick it up and want to follow it and share it.

BIG TIP PEEPs – don’t copy other people’s lexicon and story thinking it will work for your personal brand and story. It is extremely important and necessary that your lexicon and story are BORN out of YOU; they need to be an expression of your authentic truth and lived experience.

That is what makes your message powerful!

Learning To Trust Yourself

Throughout my career, I often thought, “What if there is NO one formula for success across the board like they say there is?”

What if each person has an encoded formula for success?

My distinction around this was clear; what works for one person doesn’t necessarily work for another. So I took it one step further and developed a system that reveals why being successful is more about a set of values or attributes which make one feel successful from the inside out, and let’s face it if you don’t feel successful, you’re not, no matter what your life looks like or what anyone tells you.

I’d go as far to say that the majority of the things you want to accomplish in life can be accomplished — if it weren’t for your Limiting Core Belief, which is either the fear of failure or the fear of success and the powerful feelings that are connected to this belief.

Your first step forward is to identify your Limiting Core Belief.

Is it the Fear Of Failure or the Fear Of Success?

A limiting core belief is a problem, not because it’s hard to change, but because it can be hard to catch. Unfortunately, your limiting core belief is unconscious and unquestioned and has become a part of your natural day-to-day life, which makes it very hard to find.

Other people’s limiting beliefs can be easy to spot because you’re on the outside looking in, but your own often remain hidden from you. Maybe something happened to you when you were young, such as a painful and significant childhood experience, which affected your thinking, confidence or self-worth. Many years of thoughts and feelings form vital connective pathways in your brain.

The good news is that you can correct and transform this old thinking pattern.

Change is possible. ~ You’ll be bold but calm and keen to grow beyond the norm. You will find passion in life and seize appropriate opportunities. To correct and transform your Limiting Core Belief, you first need to get to the root that caused it. This doesn’t necessarily mean you need years of therapy. You don’t have to explore every dimension of your childhood or relationships.

But you do need to do two things:

FIRST – You need to isolate your Limiting Core Belief. Start with the one that interferes with your growth. For me, “fear of failure” was the driver that formed every other limiting belief down the track. What’s yours? You don’t feel good enough? You don’t make enough money? You’re not smart?  You aren’t lovable?

SECOND – You start the Correcting and Transforming Process using the Living Attributes Typology. You might feel sure about yourself, but that doesn’t make it accurate forever. And even if there was some truth in the original belief and feelings, you can acknowledge the pain, the lessons and the gifts that have brought you to this point in your transformation.

What is an open heart?

We often think having an open heart is simply being a nice person. And yes, that’s true, but what if your open heart is a multi-faceted organ, which can take you on a journey of empowerment and enlightenment.

Having an open heart starts with being vulnerable because it helps us to work through our emotions rather than pushing them away. It is our vulnerability that fosters good emotional and mental health, and its our vulnerability that activates our courage. We build a resilient and brave heart when we embrace who we truly are, what we are feeling and what we stand for. – Its our resilience and bravery that allows our heart to stay open.

The practice of having an open heart allows us to stay in LOVE with life, which in turn takes us to higher levels of expectancy and experience.

Our open heart is the gateway to our higher heart, and our higher heart is the gateway to our high self; Our Soul.

In times of conflict or on going challenges we may want to close our hearts to all that is unpleasant, but of course that is the time to remember how our vulnerability allows us to step up into the realms of our greatest strengths, our invisible magnificence and our true quest in this lifetime.

Heart to Heart Shining Ones, Elizabeth

What is your Purpose Pitch?

uylw

Have you ever wondered what makes a great Pitch? 

It’s PURPOSE!

A Purpose Pitch is created out of a passionate, creative, soul-stirring script that you share when someone asks that ever-present question… “So… what do you do”?

As many of you know I am a raving CONTEXT QUEEN, because I believe that context is the most important step in getting clear about your Life Purpose. I can’t stress this enough, because without it nothing really fits, whatever you are working on or forming must have a crystal clear CONTEXT that can confidently support whoever you want to be or whatever you choose to create.

But it can’t be like the old style elevator pitch… No Way! (boring/phony) Today your pitch has to be alive with the very essence of who you are.

It literally has to be born from your Spirit!

We now know that fully understanding your own story can build an effective personal brand, because it highlights your strengths and value as an emerging influencer.

Your ability to Dream, Create, Feel and Live your vision lives or dies on having an authentic Purpose Pitch that inspires people to think differently.

Here is my Purpose Pitch….. I love helping people connect to the value of their own STORY; their brand, their purpose.

Because that’s what I do best. I also love to partner up with people who practice adding value… through demonsrating trust and cordial collaboration.

Here is my personal formula –

My gift is… I see the Truth

What I love to do is… Conceptualize ideas spontaneously and effectively to reveal that truth, through a process of pattern recognition and trend forecasting. 

And what I am here to correct and transform in world is… Mediocrity, Mendacity and Misogyny  

It’s pretty simple I know, but that’s my Mission for sure… just let me do that and I am indeed one happy bunny. And sure, it does take a bit of discipline to arrive at that level of clarity, because it’s all about your habits, your daily practices and where you place your attention that counts – these are the things that affect how successful you are at meeting your Life Purpose.

If you set goals and then continue wasting your time on stuff that doesn’t matter and not moving your life forward… your dreams simply cannot come true. You need to birth them and that takes regular work on yourself, along with commitment and real dedication to your vocation.

Living Attributes Typology – encourages you to stay on purpose and create some new habits that will help you get to where you want to go in your life.

Unite Your Light WOMEN – at each community event, we focus on a particular “word and its meaning” and we always have a 2 min Purpose Pitch segment to participate in, along with the valuable face-to-face connecting with other like-minded women.

This is a great way of seeing if your Purpose Pitch connects with people. You begin to see what works and what doesn’t work, while still being in a safe and supportive environment.

But that’s not the only reason I want to enroll you in this amazing community. I am encouraging you to be part of my story, because our world needs amazing solutions in so many areas — economic, social, and environmental and that’s only a few.

It’s been my experience that I learn more about who I am and what I have to offer when I am in community. And have witnessed the same in so many other women. The simple act of sharing your authentic self with others builds trust, clarity, and unity around your life purpose.

Unite Your Light WOMEN – is a wonderful way for women to form valuable community connections… Somewhere to join with other women to be supported, celebrated, valued and empowered.

Shadow Side Of Female Archetypes

The Living Attributes Typology© guides you toward the true and powerful nature of Your Living Goddess… is it tough?

Yes it can be… sometimes it’s a little and sometimes a lot!
We often have to shift outmoded patterns (pain) from our mind and our body at these times of rapid revelation. But it’s in our ability to stay fully present to our own evolutionary shifts that aids our own empowerment and in turn contributes to the collective consciousness of women. 

I know veiling or denial of any part of my true nature; my own archetypes, has not been healthy or effective. And this is because I require, as my birthright, to own all of me. I need to own my Light as well as my Shadow. I am Benevolent and Destructive (Queen), I am Blissful and Unworthy (Divine Child), I am Prophetic and Misunderstood (Visionary) and I am Restoration and Exclusion (Alchemist). For me the compilation of these Light and Shadow qualities make up my true nature.

As conscious women, when we are able to stay present to our call, we are actually aiding in the correcting and transforming of the Feminine Shadow that has been entangling the threads of our social fabric for centuries.
Together we can weave a new, stronger, vibrant and respectful social fabric, where we are all equal and acknowledged for our contributions.
The Living Attributes Typology is a tool that helps women re-create a new social fabric that supports women as they grow in their desire to SUCCEED. 

But first we have to acknowledge the nature of the shadow that dwells within each of us.

Here are three archetypes in the physical realm – they each have a shadow side and an authentic true quest.

The Shadow Queen uses her bossy, sometimes ruthless behavior to get want she wants… She may become destructive to gain power, which she then hides behind, in order to not commit to the responsible and strengthening nature of her leadership that demonstrates her authentic quest, which is… Benevolent. Meaning – (generosity of spirit)                                                                                   00016D_3

The Shadow Hero fixes her opinions of others to maintain her position and status… She may become egotistical, which she then hides behind, in order to not commit to the passionate and transforming nature of her leadership that demonstrates her authentic quest, which is… Altruistic. Meaning – (unselfish concern for the welfare of others; selflessness.)                                                                        0002ld

The Shadow Healer applies her compulsion for rescuing others to control her world around her… This can turn her into the victim, in turn making her the helpless one, which she then hides behind, in order to not commit to the devoted and radiant nature of her leadership that demonstrates her authentic quest, which is… Resurrection. (The state of one who has returned to life.) 

 0003fI_2

We often find it hard to own all sides to our nature; Light and Shadow, but it is through the accepting of our shadow in conjunction with our light that we get to see how it is the driving force toward our True Quest.

It’s all there for a reason… and when we begin to understand our human evolution, when we can face our fears, our judgments and our overwhelm, we start to see and develop an inner knowing, which repeatedly becomes our compass that directs us back home every time.
