Desire used in a positive way, is the key to getting what you want in life. Desire is having a mixture of hope, faith, and eagerness related to where you see yourself, who you see yourself with, and what you see yourself doing in life. It is a strong motive mixed with passion, inspiration, intention and action. Desires, when used in a powerful manner, always mixed with a good amount of reason, can get a person to create their own opportunities and jump into them, buy the home they've always dreamed of, find their life's purpose, be with their true soulmate, and more. Desire begins as a thought, is then mixed with passion and inspiration, and with hope and faith, turns into motivated action.
An important aspect of your life to assess, is if there is anything unnecessary or negative present, that needs modification or elimination. Are you spending time with draining people?, are you watching too much television?, playing video games daily, in a job that you do not enjoy? Make a list of at least three things that you can get rid of or lessen, to make room for true desire to come in and uplift your life. When this space is created, it leaves your mind open, and the desires can begin. There is room to realize that maybe you'd like more positive people in your life, some extra date nights with your partner, a dream career. There is room now for your brain to start working on who you could teach you the information that could help you begin that dream job?, where you could meet those new people, and more. This making space is so profound, that sometimes you are just led into opportunities through your new stronger intuition.
Remember, you deserve to have your desires turn into your dreams, which will turn into reality when mixed with passion, faith and action. You are here on this planet for a reason. Regardless of anything at all that occured in your past, learn from it, and go soar to success. Turning your desires into dreams and then reality will allow you to help others, just by living as a powerful example. This alone, is a huge reason to go for it, get up and go, take flight!!!

WOMEN POWER!!!!
Girls, ladies, females, divas, chicks; all of us have much more in common than we realize. We all need love, we have powerful energy and intuition, we have that mother instinct, goddess vibes, ability to multi-task, enhanced empathy, strength, sweetness and more. The special and inspirational element is when we can come together, see deeply into one another's souls and truly connect and support each other. It is an uplifting feeling when there is a fairly large group of women that are all getting along positively. It becomes one shared energetic space that gives all who are in it, a peace, power and depth.
Relationships are what life is all about. When a woman feels supported, and in her female power, she has the ability to elevate her family and friends, and achieve more. It is an invigorating feeling when we have a knowingness that we have built a foundation of women who encourage, appreciate, reassure, and truly "SEE" us , and love us for who we are.
The formation of Willow Tree Women's Circle was for this purpose. A group of women, spending quality time together discussing positive and powerful life topics, bonds us together in deep ways, that keep expanding, growing, and intensifying. In turn, our intuition is heightened, our love, appreciation and awareness of self is magnified, so that it begins to flow outward to others. As a result, we are all living by example, helping others by just being ourselves, giving other women permission to be in their full positive power too!
The willow tree is the perfect name and symbol. The willow tree symbolizes a woman's strength and flexibility without breaking. It reminds us to keep growing higher, no matter where you are planted. The willow is known for it's water and moon attributes, and symbolizes intuition for a clearer understanding of the world. Some psychics believe that the wands made from willow tree bark, can help one receive visions, heighten intuition and develop clairvoyance. It stands for harmony and resonance( vibrating with sympathy), creativity, fertility, love, protection and healing. Most significantly it stands for female rites of passage. That is another powerful reason that a group of women can enhance greatness. It creates the space for women to grow, expand, and become even more of her true self.
Celebrate being a woman! Come join us at Willow Tree Women's Circle once per month. A delightful group of women bonding, discussing life, wonderful teachings, guest speakers, inspiration, guided meditations, fun exercises and more! http://www.kimlifecoach.com/WILLOW-TREE-WOMEN-S-CIRCLE.html

"STEPS SIX AND SEVEN FOR GETTING YOUR LIFE TO A 10 PLUS"
Steps six and seven are so significant in getting your life balanced, extraordinary, tranquil and amazing. Step six is setting goals. It is best to pick three, with one being the biggest and most emphasized. Make sure that these goals are in line with your life purpose. A great way to evaluate if your goals and dreams truly fit the real you, is to spend several minutes thinking about what you are grateful for, what you feel could make you even happier, what you enjoy doing so much that it is effortless, and even what you loved doing as a child. After creating this list, think about how each of these things makes you feel. Does being grateful for family make you feel joyful? If you would be happier in a different career would that give you an enthusiastic feeling? As a child, did playing softball make you feel free? If yes, then your special feelings would be joy, enthusiasm, and freedom. These will help you in deciding if your goals meet your true conscious needs.
For example, Joe's goal is to become more organized at work by the end of the year. Joe realizes that he needs a goal that makes him feel appreciated, calm and focused. By creating this organization goal, the outcome will give him these three feelings. On the other hand, Joe had a goal to begin playing in a local band on the weekends by November. He evaluated this, and realized that this goal's outcome or result would not make him feel calm or focused. Therefore, he eliminated that goal, and chooses to jam with friends once in awhile instead.
Be sure that each of your goals has benchmarks or steps for achievement. What will you do each week to ensure that this goal is met? It is helpful to find an accountability partner to keep you on track. It also works well to mark these steps into your planner each week. You can post your purpose and goals in an area of your home, where you are continously reminded of what you are working towards. Additionally, it is an excellent idea to take a business card or paper and write out your purpose and goals to keep in your purse or wallet. You can add affirmations or tips for living well too. This way, you stay on track, constantly reminded of your greatness. Goals ensure that you are moving forward!
The final step in getting your life to a ten plus is to self evaluate. Find out the value of what you are doing, where you are going, who you are spending time with, what you are saying to yourself and others, and your integrity. Do you walk your talk? Take some time every month or two to really ask yourself where you are at in the areas of relationships, social life, career/purpose, spirituality, fun and recreation, finance, and health/wellness. Rate yourself. The areas where you are not yet at a high level, find out why. What choices could you be making that raise this rating? Can you get rid of some things in your life to focus on what is of true value to you? Do whatever you can to move forward. Ask for help, read books, take steps toward greatness. It is so worth it!

"STEP 5; GET YOUR LIFE TO A 10 PLUS WITH HELP"
The fifth step in getting your life to a 10 plus, is to ask for help. People need one another. Thats the beauty of life; "RELATIONSHIPS". To truly see yourself clearer and more objectively, most people need support of some sort. It may be in the form of a coach, mentor, best friend, or counselor. A mastermind group is also a great support for motivation, inspiration and accountability. If you can say that your life is not at a ten in all areas; (for example, self care, social life, love relationship, friendships, family life, career/purpose, finances, and spiritual life), you can use some help. Even the people whose lives are at a ten plus regularly get advice and guidance from someone. Why not create your life by design and let yourself soar? What would that be worth to you? Do you believe that it's possible? Of course it is!
Now that you have made the conscious decision to have an even more extraordinary spectacular life, what do you do? Who do you contact? Take some time to think about who would be your best fit. Would a life coach help you get to the next level, and eliminate anything negative? Do you need a mentor, someone that you can regularly meet with and learn from? Would going to five great seminars benefit you this year? Maybe you should join a mastermind group, or form your own. All of the above would be ideal. Why not push your own envelope and move quickly toward greatness this year. Now, think on it, plan it, and take action!

STEP FOUR: EVALUATE YOURSELF
Step four ingetting your life to a 10 plus involves regular evaluation of self. I suggest at least four times per year to truly look at what you are regularly doing, who you are spending your time with, if you are meeting your goals, whats going great, the improvements that are needed, and overall how you are feeling on a daily basis. This can involve an hour of your time, in a quiet area with a blank sheet of paper in your journal, where you write out all of these things and analyze them.
Another great suggestion is to have a person that you regularly meet with to discuss these things weekly. For example, my husband and I take an hour at dinner on Sunday evenings and discuss our week. We talk about the things we did amazing, what we learned, how we can get better, and the steps we took toward our goals. These dinners are often celebrations of our successes that week. They also consist of honest feedback and suggestions. We even involve our four and a half year old daughter Noella.
A thorough way to self evaluate and grow is also with the help of a life coach or mentor, where you can regularly meet with the person and review your life, making profound, meaningful changes and move forward. A mastermind group is also fun and great for accountability. It is a regular group you meet with once or twice per month to network, discuss goals, receive ideas, and be held accountable by like minded friends for you to follow through with your dreams. This powerful team of success minded beings become one another's support system.
Remember to ask yourself regularly, " who am I spending time with"? "what am I doing with my time"?, "what choices am I making"? " what can I do to be more successful, happier, more fulfilled"?, "If I say yes to this, what am I saying no to"? These questions will help you to regularly evaluate if you are moving forward in life.
Most importantly, be proud of yourself. Just the time you take to learn how you are doing, is a step in the right direction. For information on life coaching, mentors and how to form your own mastermind group, contact me at kimmy_somers@yahoo.com and check out http://www.kimlifecoach.com/

STEP 3: STUDY, LEARN AND GROW
Step three in getting your life to a ten plus is to study, learn and grow. Spend at least 2 hours per day with personal development. Listen to CDs while driving, watch an inspirational DVD, attend motivational/inspirational seminars regularly, talk to amazing people, ask lots of questions, read at least one book per month. There is so much wonderful information out there that can truly change your life. Spend time with the greats; Og Mandino, John Maxwell, Jim Rohn, SUCCESS magazine, Niurka, Dr. Wayne Dyer, Napoleon Hill, Florence Scovel Shinn, Doreen Virtue, Joel Osteen, Anthony Robbins, W. Clement Stone, Marianne Williamson, and more. Try this for one month, and see how your life changes and moves forward. Your thinking will become clearer, you will focus more, and the secrets to success and happiness will become your essence, a part of you, until you just exude it and it is you.

STEP 2: YOUR LIFE PURPOSE
Step 2 of getting your life to a 10 plus, is to know your life purpose. The good news is that if you have not yet found it, you can make your purpose, " I will be the best "me" I can possibly be". This means dedicating time to work on yourself. The great Jim Rohn said to "work harder on yourself than you do on your job". This is so true. Doing this will reap so many huge benefits, and begin pulling you towards positivity.
To help you find your purpose, or to make sure your current purpose is really your true calling, think of all that makes you fulfilled in your life. Then, think of three adjectives to describe these things. For example, if someone is fulfilled by their family life and their career, and their three words describing these two aspects are integrity, passion and motivation, then those 3 powerful words can help them with their life purpose to make sure it is aligned with the words that describe what is essential for them.
Now, take out a sheet of paper and title it, What Do I Want? Underneath the title, give yourself five minutes to write a free flowing of all that comes out of your pen without consciously thinking about it. Just let it flow. This means write out every dream, whether you think the dream is realistic or not.
Look over your list and circle the items that can be described with your three essential words. This will help you to see which of your items is truly aligned with what is fulfilling and important for you.
Now you will have some clarity with your list in finding what is truly important to you. Your purpose may still take some time, but this will help you to focus on what is meaningful, and eliminate that which doesn't match your words of essence.
Finally, write out your life purpose in a few sentences and carry it with you everywhere. This way, for all that you do, you can ask yourself if it is in line with your true calling. It's okay if you modify it over time. The important thing is to move forward with the intention of knowing your true self and purpose in life; which is a giant step in getting your life to a ten plus.
