A NOTE FROM THE CATALYST
Happy New Year!!! In the ancient Roman Empire, September 1 was actually celebrated as the new year. That totally makes sense, doesn't it? Everyone is coming back from summer vacation, school is starting, and there's a refreshed vigor as people get back into their routines. In fact, it feels to me like there's a lot more energy around Sept 1 being the start of a new year than Jan 1!
 Since I last wrote you, I've been to Phoenix for the Women's Business Empowerment Summit and in Los Angeles for the Speak Your Way to Wealth conference - both had some amazing speakers and good people in attendance! That's me with Adam Urbanski and Viki Viertel, the Digital Buddha. I also got to spend some quality time with Lori Steffen of the Dynamic Duo of Content when she came to visit sunny SoCal.
I've been working up more good stuff on the Energy of Money teleclass (I'll keep you posted on that - it's coming soon!). My new DVD for soul-driven entrepreneurs is in the final stages of post-production (OMG). I just recorded a radio interview for Kat and Nancy who are the hosts of a new show on www.ExceptionalWisdomRadio.com (it's scheduled to air around October 2). And I'm co-teaching a class on social media marketing with Michelle Price - the first class of the next series starts next Thursday, September 4 - there's still room if you want to check it out!.
I think that brings us up to date for the moment on me. Now for the big question - with less than 120 days left in 2008, what are you doing with your precious "new year's" energy to create the life and business you want???
To Your Soul-Aligned Achievements ~

P.S.: In case you haven't seen it yet, here is an amazing video of a lion raised domestically in London in the 1960s and eventually released into the wild. It's definitely a video for the soulfully inclined... (warning: have the Kleenex ready...) ;+)

As a soul-driven entrepreneur, you need not only the business systems and shortcuts to help you structure your business but also the energetic tools and support to pull you forward into making your purpose fully manifest in the world through your business.
And that's what the Catalyst Club is all about! A group of talented, good-energy, conscious entrepreneurs get together for group calls twice a month. The calls are open format by design - we explore what's first and foremost for the "Catalysters" during each call.
So far, we've covered a lot of topics in just the last few months - and it's making a big difference! Things like, the eight steps to manifestation, making your gift the priority and outsourcing the rest, how to visualize desires without attachment, social media tips, key elements of a successful website, energy traps and vampires... and so much more.
Plus you have will have your own profile page and access to the resources and everyone else at the Catalysters Online Community, receive a bunch of other goodies, and be a part of my personal R and D team (you see what I'm doing before everybody else!). For just $97 / month, you can make a HUGE difference for your business!
Our next call is coming up - it's this coming Saturday, September 6! This particular call will include information on how to clear your "gunk" to get out of your own way. Plus, of course, whatever anyone else brings up to explore...
Talk about using the power of foresight... this is one way to get things in GEAR! Go to www.LynnsCatalystClub.com - we're looking forward to "seeing" you there!

SOUL-DRIVEN BUSINESS
Five Steps to Making "It" Happen
When you hit the turning point of wanting "it" in your soul-driven business (or life!), you're on the verge of big magic. Getting to the turning point is a big enough deal in and of itself, because you've had to get full enough of what you don't want any more to know that it's time to claim something different. That turning point can be precipitated by pain, trauma, tragedy, endings or a desire for something better. But, for now, let's assume that you've hit that turning point and made the decision you want "it" - your new desire - to happen. What happens now?
First, that decision of wanting "it" puts into motion some new ideas in your mind. They may not make a lot of sense, but that's simply your internal systems gearing up creatively to give you options. At this point, it's a good idea to keep a journal or list of all the ideas that come in, regardless of their "whacky" factor. You just don't know yet what's going to be helpful and make sense as you get further into the process.
Second, you'll likely notice as those ideas present themselves to you that you have some feelings about them. This is the emotional firepower that can guide you to taking the next best step, and it gives the ideas the energy to begin manifesting in physical form. A caveat for you: make sure that the emotions do not turn into judgments, limitations, kick off habitual and conditioned thinking or are an imprint of someone else's emotional energy. If any one of those becomes the case, it will distort your outcomes because you will either censor yourself or create from your history or reflect something other than your own true desire. (There are ways to handle all of those, but that's also another conversation...)
Third, you will feel compelled to start taking action on the ideas that have produced an emotionally positive feeling. This is what some would call taking "inspired action", and it is this type of action that produces results that exceed what one would expect in doing them. The reason is that any time you do something from pure inspiration, you invoke the power of the universe to support you, so it lines up all kinds of resources to help you as you take action. A key question to ask yourself is: "am I taking the best right action I can at this moment to get me to what I want?" Listening to the answer will always guide you to your next best step.
Fourth, access and recognize your connection to your source energy to help you. Notice the synchronicities, "accidents", and "coincidences" that bring new situations, relationships or resources into your experience. By allowing the universe "wiggle room" to help you, you are actually harnessing the power of the universe on your behalf. Be open to noticing and receiving what comes to you.
Finally, fifth, you will see signs of the manifestation of "it". This can take the form of material objects, but also, and maybe more importantly, this can also take the form of enhanced relationships, a new bounce in your step, a certain vitality to your business, or any other number of expressions that show you that "it" has started to come in and/or arrived.
One last note: if you're getting unexpected results that aren't what you wanted, it's important to be open to self-reflection to discover the gifts of what you DID manifest. If your results are somehow anti-climactic, you could be still in process OR there could have been non-clarity in one of these steps. If you took actions that didn't feel good, or ignored potentially key components to success from the universe, you have just sabotaged your journey and your results. Or, if your results are bigger than what you asked for, it could be that you didn't ask for enough. In any case, that's cause for celebration and gratitude!
Here's to you enjoying the magic of manifesting "it" more quickly and easily in your best and highest good!
