What you value in life overflows into your business, relationships and everything else. I’ve talked about values before, but I dive in a little deeper as a guest on Amber Hurdle’s excellent show “Bombshell Business Podcast” where I talk about getting in alignment with your personal values to create business success.

Join Amber and I as I walk her through my process of getting focused about what path to take with her business.

What’s Missing In My Life?

If you don’t know what’s missing in your life, then you’ve been asking yourself the wrong question.

Perhaps you should ask “What’s present in my life that’s preventing me from getting what’s missing in my life?”

It may sound like an odd way to ask the question but the way you phrase questions to yourself will dictate how you think about everything. And if you change the way you think, you can change your results.

When you don’t know what’s missing, you don’t know what to focus on to obtain what’s missing. So maybe it’s time to change the questions you ask yourself.

“What’s missing in my life?”

No… How about: “What is in my life right now that, if it were missing, would help me get what I need to feel happy?”

How your phrase your language changes how you think about a problem.

The above question sounds weird on purpose. And in order to understand it, you need to reach inside yourself a little deeper than you normally would. This will help you access your innermost resources that will help you come up with a solution.
