Today, you receive my final 5 lessons about SUCCESS.
As I just got to Thailand this morning, where I am hosting my very first retreat, the Glow Camp, I am celebrating a massive milestone and success in my life and business! Let me share my retreat story with you:
In 2015, I was the official host of the Cetaphil Experience in the Philippines. Cetaphil had organized workshops to teach women about skin care and #skinconfidence. And I was the core piece of this event, surrounded by tons of beauty and fashion bloggers from all over South East Asia.
I was shocked how little even beauty bloggers knew about the skin! Lots of them had severe skin issues and definitely did not feel confident in their own skin.
That was the moment where my retreat idea was born.
Ever since then, I've had that DREAM of hosting a retreat with women in a beautiful place, helping them feeling confident with who they are.
Never had I really thought I could make this happen. Seriously, [FIRST NAME GOES HERE]! I was so freaking scared that no-one would sign up and that it would just turn out to be a massive failure!
Despite all these fears and freakouts, I've actually had my entire retreat schedule mapped out since 2015! And last year, I finally had the courage to get this started and make my dream come true. I setup a page on my website, booked a villa, talked to some amazing women who wanted to join...
AND MADE IT HAPPEN!
Success is not a coincidence. It is the result of action after action after action. With a big vision, a powerful intention, a little bit of courage, self-confidence, and trust in the universe, God, spirit, that things will work out well for you!
So here are my success lessons for you:
1) DO MORE OF WHAT MAKES YOU HAPPY
Sounds so simple, but lots of people don’t do this. What truly makes you happy? Where do you completely forget about time? Find out what you’re so obsessed with and then go do more of that.
Being successful with something you are obsessed with can be so easy! Vs. struggling to achieve results that don't make your heart beat faster. Simply do more of what makes you happy!
2) YOU ARE NOT A VICTIM
Lots of my health coaching clients are often in a victim mode when we first start working together. They think things „just“ happen to them and life is so unfair. But that's not true. The law of attraction works here as well.
And the truth is that everything happens for a reason. And no matter in what situation you are right now, you are neither meant to be a victim nor are there no solutions.
Where there is a problem, there is a solution.
You don't have to be a victim. You can change your mindset and become the absolute owner of your life and success! Stop playing that victim role and step into a new, confident self that owns her life and takes decisions that feel good for her!
3) LEARN YOUR LESSONS
"The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results." - Albert Einstein
There’s nothing more stupid than making the same mistakes over and over again. You do one thing, you get one result. This is the law of cause and effect.
Failed? Try again. And try differently. Tweak little things. Do better and learn your lessons. That's what mistakes are here for.
4) ACKNOWLEDGE YOUR SUCCESSES
It’s so easy to get carried away by all the things we didn’t get right and focus on all the things we failed at. While you can self-loath in victim mode, you can also focus on your successes to uplift your energy and get your vibration back in control.
Activity: Take your journal and write down 5 things you did successfully today. And just like any other muscle, you’ve gotta strengthen that success muscle, too!
5) REGULARLY LEAVE YOUR COMFORT ZONE
Learning is growing. I believe in learning so much and am constantly in courses, working with mentors, watching videos, reading books that broaden my knowledge.
It is important to constantly grow and regularly leave your comfort zone. It’s called comfort zone, because it’s comfortable. But a comfortable life is not an exciting and adventurous life. If you want more success in your life, find ways to challenge yourself on a daily basis.
It will make your life way more interesting and way more exciting!
If there's anyone in your life right now that needs to hear these little reminders about success, it would make me really happy if you forwarded this blog to them! <3
Love & Glow,
Martina
