Clearing Blocks – What to do when uncertainty arises…

Day Twenty-Two of How to Attract Clients and Grow a Thriving Private Practice in 40 Days: One woman’s personal journey of applying Manifestation and Marketing principles to re-building her private practice

By Kathryn Yarborough

I need to spend some time clearing blocks…

Last night and this morning I realized that uncertainty had crept in.

I don’t know how to attract clients by being the person who is seeing 25 clients a week AND do everything else I want and think I need to do like...

...write this and do marketing for Breath of Life and the professional development workshops I teach.

On a manifestation journey, uncertainty and other blocks almost always arise.

Many people say it feels like they're being tested.

I think of it as a chance to really evaluate whether or not I am truly willing to achieve this goal – and do what ever it takes to do so - including clearing blocks.

Even though I have good news… a potential new client emailed me this morning. I had met her last week at a networking meeting and she is very interested in Breath of Life coaching… and she has been telling lots of people about it as well!

And... I had a glorious Breath of Life coaching session with a client this morning who is expanding her consciousness and waking up in every cell of her body.

... I still feel the place in me that is resistant. Obviously I need to focus on clearing blocks.

Right now I don’t know how I will be able to see 25 clients a week, write for my website, and connect with people in a way that invites them to try Breath of Life coaching sessions.

Clearing blocks by using the commitment exercise might make sense today…

Let’s see…

Commitment Exercise

My goal is to see 25 Breath of Life coaching clients every week (supplemented by Manifestation Coaching and professional development workshops) so that I have 25 paid client contact hours every week – or something even better by Oct. 1.

On a scale of 0-100, I am 70% willing to do what ever it takes to achieve this goal.

Clearing blocks is a lot like pulling weeds. The following two sentence completions help bring awareness to the "weeds" in our minds, look at them and possibly discard them.

What’s between me and being 100% willing to do what ever it takes to achieve this goal is…

• It’s a complete change in lifestyle from going with the flow (over the past 2 years) to being committed to being with people 4-5 days a week for 6-8 hours. How do I make that lifestyle change before I have the clients… and am I really willing to make that lifestyle change?
• I feel preoccupied by writing this and posting these pages on to my web site.
• I also want to attract people to my Attracting Clients Workshop in Columbia, MD and I feel like doing so is splitting my attention.
• I want to put time and energy into writing out my “Nurture Marketing” program.
• So the bottom line is – I need to be talking to people and connecting with them and there is all this other stuff to do – how will I get every thing done and be with people in order to attract clients?

I’m having “aha moment”…

I’m realizing that I am really and truly on my way to achieving this goal. I can be in the stance of trusting the process, breathing fully and deeply, and listening to what wants to happen and doing it as it arises.

I definitely know I am "floating downstream" toward this. I will attract more and more clients as I float along. I am a magnet! So even while I write this and do other computer work, I am attracting clients.

Back to clearing blocks… let’s see if there’s more…

In order to achieve this goal, I have to let go of…

• Being free to do what ever I want when ever I want to.
• Having a small, contracted mind as I think about my work. Instead I need to let my mind be expansive as I hold seeing 25 clients a week, teaching 2-3 days a month, doing presentations, writing, and creating products.
• Focusing on me and what I want to do.
• Being insular and instead allow myself to be flexible and connect with others throughout my day.
• Fears and uncertainties. I need to be the person who is seeing 25 clients a week and standing in certainty with this.

Clearing blocks also occurs when we refocus our attention away from them and onto why want to and how we can manifest our desires.

I want to achieve this goal because…

• I want to follow through with the Guidance I receive. I trust this Guidance and know it is moving me in the direction that is Highest for me and therefore all life everywhere.
• I want to be able to easily pay my bills and to be in right relationship with money.
• I want to see people present in their bodies and breathing more fully. When people are present in their bodies and breathing fully, I can relax deeply.
• I want to achieve this goal because it feels like it is my Purpose to help others evolve to their next level of consciousness and decrease their suffering.
• Achieving this goal will be movement forward in fulfilling my Purpose and I will grow and learn doing it and be better able to train others in doing Breath of Life coaching.

I think I can achieve this goal because…

• I think I can achieve this goal, but I’m not sure if I can do it in three months.
• I can achieve this goal because I can visualize it.
• There is a great need. Lots of people out there are stressed to the max and want relief!
• Source wants me to… though I didn’t hear a date through my Guidance – just 25 clients a week. (So I’m not going to hold the date over my head – I’ll let it be a directional guide moving me forward on my journey).
• If I am gentle with myself and keep putting one foot in the front of the other with this, things will evolve.
• It does seem that there are plenty of people who will want to do this when they know about it. And I can trust Guidance to keep me focused on this and nudging me when I need it.

On a scale from 0-100, I feel 99% willing to do whatever it takes to achieve this goal!

Wow that’s great. I’m going to go ahead and commit to it…

I commit to doing what ever it takes to see 25 Breath of Life coaching clients every week by Oct. 1.

Clearing blocks works. I feel calmer and centered about attracting clients.

I’m experiencing a kind of snowball effect… Like it’s starting and it will continue to grow. Wow – it’s really going to happen.
