WHY WRITING THINGS DOWN TO MANIFEST WORKS!

  • Posted By : J. Carter, Esq./

Focus, Focus, Focus

Do you want to know why writing things down to manifest works?

Whenever you write down your goals and intentions they force you to focus.

Sitting down and collecting your thoughts require your full attention.

Whatever You Put Your Attention On Grows

“What you think about is what you bring about.” This is a very popular saying. Whatever you pay attention to is what you will experience in your life. So if you are wondering why you have had bad relationships, bad finances, bad friendships it is probably because this is what your are thinking about.

STEPS ON HOW TO MANIFEST YOUR INTENTIONS

So, you’re going to need a pen and paper. Even better a journal.

You can also use a vision board but I do not suggest using your laptop.

1. Identify your desires.

Write down at least three goals professionally and personally. The Power of Three says not to make a list of more than 3 things to properly execute without getting overwhelmed.

2. Write it down.

See Above- Use paper or vision board preferably.

3. Write down in detail what it feels like to have what you want.

The more specific the better. Instead of saying I want to lose weight say I want to eat healthier, exercise 2-3 times a week and drink more water to lose ______pounds by this date______. Now you have a method to reach your goal and a deadline to help you stay accountable and reach the goal.

4. Let it Go.

The letting go part is so you don’t give your logical mind room to begin questioning or doubting your goals.

Think of your list or vision board as magic. As soon as you have written it, it is already done.

Choose whatever method works for you and have fun with this!

InspoFab: Silence is the Answer

  • Posted By : J. Carter, Esq./
  • 0 comments /
  • Under : INSPIRATION

You’ve worked months or even years on a project, business, or deal and you finally see the fruits of your labor. Suddenly you are acknowledged for your success and it’s eerily quiet. Sure you may get a few likes on social media and immediate congratulations from your family. But there will noticeably be some friends and colleagues that will not even acknowledge your accomplishments.

This silence will at first offend you, anger you or even make you sad. But here’s why it shouldn’t:

  • They are envious. It’s not uncommon that they are jealous that they can never achieve your level of success and that they wish they could achieve it.
  • They really are your competitors. Sometimes we mistake friends for “frienemies”. Sometimes people pretend to be our friends to benefit from what we have but are ready to surpass or take us down the minute it becomes convenient to raise their stature.
  • They compare their success to yours. Some “friends” are ok with you succeeding in your personal or professional life as long as you are not surpassing them. Classic crab in the barrel mentality.

So the next time you achieve something, don’t wait for the applause. Instead expect the crickets. And let that silence be your answer on whose really “rooting for you”.

InspoFab: Dealing with Traumatic Racial Events and Covid

  • Posted By : admin/
  • 0 comments /
  • Under : INSPIRATION

In the last 90 days, the world has seen a global pandemic with the Covid Crisis and racial tensions rise in the fight against police brutality.

I like you probably sometimes feel overwhelmed with the amount of information to process and all the graphic images and videos of those hurting, angry or dying. Below are some tips from Talk Space and us on how to ope with these traumatic events.

HOW TO COPE WITH TRAUMATIC RACIAL EVENTS

  1. Know when it’s time to power off your phone and avoid triggering videos and accounts.
  2. Only watch news max twice a day to stay informed but not overwhelmed.
  3. Write out your feelings in a journal
  4. Increase self care (home face masks, drink tea and water, take bubble baths, mediate, exercise).
  5. Be an advocated the best way you can whether it be sharing or signing a petition, making a call, or donating to causes. Everyone doesn’t need to physically protest to make a difference.
  6. If you are not Black American make sure out to reach out to your Black American friends to let them know that you care and are thinking of them.

HOW TO COPE WITH TRAUMATIC COVID EVENTS

  1. Do not completely isolate. Social distance only requires mask and six feet. Most states are in phase two of re-opening so visiting friends in outdoor spaces like hiking, beach and parks is good.
  2. Exercise in your house or walk around your neighborhood.
  3. Drink Plenty of Vitamin C to fight off germs.
  4. Wash your hands every time you come back from being outside for at least 20 seconds and wipe down common surfaces like your phone and door knobs twice a day.
  5. Pray and or Mediate.
  6. Zoom or Facetime Family and Friends at least once a week.
  7. Step outside at least once a day.
  8. Order in your favorite foods.
  9. Watch your favorite movies and catch up on binge worthy shows.
  10. Read here our tips on how to staycation!

InspoFab: Corona Getaway!

  • Posted By : J. Carter, Esq./
  • 0 comments /
  • Under : INSPIRATION

No Concerts, No Sports, No Movies, No Trips, No Museums, No Restaurants, No Weddings, No Parties, No Beaches and No Gyms.

We are all stuck inside because of the Corona Virus Pandemic. Just 40 days ago our lives were so normal. The worldwide stay at home orders are leaving some people depressed, scared and frustrated being stuck on the inside with no end in sight. Here is what I did to give myself a break from my home environment while staying safe.

1. Pick the best area of town where you live or travel to your second home or vacation home. For example, I chose Malibu. If you do not have a personal home somewhere else rent a hotel suite or nice Airbnb full of plush amenities.

2. Plan your meals ahead of time. Order from restaurants that deliver through Uber eats, Door Dash etc. Order all your favorite breakfast, lunch and dinner foods. I am a seafood foodie so most of my meals had seafood items like crab rolls, shrimp cocktails and oysters. For breakfast, I also did plenty of fruit, nuts, cheeses with standard items like pancakes and french toast. To top it off I had different types of Mimosas with several juices and in the evening had selection of red and white wines.

3. Plan your staycation activities. Since you are currently at home watching mostly TV and on the computer and on social media all day, stay away from these draining activities and instead choose reinvigorating and relaxing activities. If your staycation home has a pool or jacuzzi, swim during the day and relax in jacuzzi at night. My home was on the beach so I had the benefit of walking along the beach and falling asleep to the waves. I also exercised during the day, read books and listened to music during the day. As a special treat, my nail tech with masks and gloves performed mobile in house services so I had mani and pedi spa day during my stay. In the evening, I chose to unwind some nights to some popular of Oscar movies with popcorn and gave myself facials with sheet masks I purchased from Target and CVS. My staycation partner also convinced me to do my first Tik Tok videos that gave me a chance to act and dance something I hadn’t done in months!

The takeaway is make sure during this time you do not stay at home day after day. Take even if it is just a weekend to change your environment, relax and reset!

InspoFab: My real life CBD Journey with Brown Girl Jane!

  • Posted By : admin/
  • 0 comments /
  • Under : INSPIRATION
It’s 2 am, I can’t sleep. I’m tossing and turning. After pure exhaustion I finally fall back to sleep only to wake right back up at 6am. During the day I can not focus. I’m not starting and completing as many tasks as I did before. I feel overwhelmed and anxious. This has been my life since October of last year. After several personal challenges including recovering from a knee injury, fighting off a stalker, my brother being shot in a drive by, dealing with a business partner dispute and relocation after a breakup, I was at my ropes end. One day I just so happen to being scrolling down my Instagram page and I noticed my best friend from high school and her sister had launched a new CBD line of drops and scrubs for anxiety and sleep. I immediately called her to reconnect and tell her what symptoms I had been suffering but also to express my concerns with CBD. I had never smoked marijuana let alone inhaled it so I was afraid I would be walking around high as a kite! To my surprise and relief she said CBD was not weed! CBD (a calming cannabinoid) unlike THC which is contained in weed, has no psychoactive effects. There is no “high” or other mind-altering effects from CBD. On the contrary: CBD on its own has calming, anti-anxiety effects—one of the reasons why it’s been identified as a useful supplement to treat insomnia and other sleep problems. However, CBD can have several positive effects including it may help you feel relaxed. That can feel a bit like a high, though it’s not intoxicating.
Within 24 hours of trying the “sleep” drops I immediately felt relief and could sleep. And during the day it took about a week for me to start feeling the calmness the “balance” drops gave me but I definitely regained my focus. Trying to run 3 companies and balancing my brothers recovery has been the hardest thing I have had to since my dad’s passing 5 years ago. Asking for help is not in my nature and prior to these CBD drops I was not an advocate of aides like prescription drugs that people tend to become addicted to. That’s why these drops are a miracle and have really SAVED my life. So glad I tried CBD! I also like that her drops were made in mind for the busy professional woman especially women of color.

InspoFab: New Decade New You! 2020 Goal Setting Tips

  • Posted By : admin/
  • 0 comments /
  • Under : INSPIRATION

If you are reading this, you made it to the next decade! 10 years can fly by fast. Can you actually name what you have accomplished personally and professionally for yourself in the last ten years? Most of us can not. Why? Because most of us fall victim to setting goals or resolutions and never executing them. Below are tips on how to actually execute your goals in this new decade.

1. WRITE IT DOWN – Did you know that 44% of persons of the most successful people actually wrote their goals down? And that they also made 9 more times more money that write them down! Why? Because writing out your goals down actually forces you to look at what you want and by default encourages you to write down how you can execute these goals.

2. BE SPECIFIC- The more specific the better. When you narrow down specifically what you want it makes it actually easier to execute. Instead of saying I want to become financially independent, say which business you will launch in order to achieve this independence. Instead of saying I want to lose weight, say you will set a regular gym schedule and change your diet and the weight loss will automatically follow.

3. GIVE YOURSELF A DEADLINE- Many ask me how I am able to launch so many businesses or complete so many projects in such a short time frame. The secret is to give yourself a date deadline (long projects 6-9months and short project 2-3 months) and hold yourself accountable to that deadline. If you are working up to a certain date even if you don’t complete it on that exact date you will eventually complete it because you would have been working up to that point trying to complete it.

4. GIVE YOURSELF A VISUAL- Vision boards work because they keep your desires in the forefront of your mind. The idea is that once you create your vision board, you will put in a place where you can see it everyday, and thus be consistently inspired and motivated to achieve the goals you place on your board.

5. DECLARE OUT LOUD- Once you write down your goals and have images of them you see on a regular basis on your vision board then you will by default start to speak about them. By speaking about them your actions will start to match your words and you will only associate with people and things that will align with executing your goals. You will be manifesting your desires into existence by placing them into the universe.

Here’s to your next ten years!

InspoFab: Release And Stay Present!

  • Posted By : admin/
  • 0 comments /
  • Under : INSPIRATION

“Yesterday is history, tomorrow is mystery, but today is a gift. That’s why it is called present.”

This quote summarizes the power of staying in the present.

Focusing on the past is futile.

Planning for the future is important, but obsessing over it is counterproductive. 

All we have is the present.

So, how do you learn to focus on the present instead of the future?

Well According to Dr. Rajeev Kurapati we have to first understand the nature of the mind.

The basic nature of the mind is to dwell in the past or to worry about the future. Our uneasiness about what’s to come is actually our strategy to prepare for the future – our mind’s ingenious way of ensuring that we’re equipped to survive. Without such readiness, the mind can’t prepare the body to thrive.

~Dr. Rajeev Kurapati

So how does this future-oriented mind know exactly what to prepare for the seemingly unknown? The mind relies on one thing to predict what’s to come: the past. We in short essentially allow the past to shape the future.

Our mind is constantly toggling between these two opposing tendencies: the fear of the unknown or the comfort in the possibility found in hope. How do you get your mind to find a natural resting place between the two?

Mindfulness! (AKA Being Present)

Here are 5 tips from Mind Valley to stay present now:

1. Pay attention to the full experience of walking.

Take a moment to focus on the sensations, the small and large movements you make while walking, how objects seem to move past you, the temperature, the wind, etc.

2.  Pay attention to the full experience of breathing.

The sounds, sensations, smells, etc. Meditations you can find on free Apps like “Calm” and “Insight Timer”.

3. Change up your routine.

Drive a different way to work, reverse the order in which you get ready in the morning, and eat something new for breakfast. Change up your routine anytime you can.

4. Periodically stop and smile.

Become aware of the immediate physiological response in your body when you smile. Smiling can trick your brain into happiness — and boost your health. A smile spurs a powerful chemical reaction in the brain that can make you feel happier. Science has shown that the mere act of smiling can lift your mood, lower stress, boost your immune system and possibly even prolong your life!

5. Let the Rest To Go.

Whatever is not there in that moment let go. Be there, right there, right then. That’s all.

InspoFab: Being Selective

  • Posted By : admin/
  • 0 comments /
  • Under : INSPIRATION

Have you ever been told you are too picky?  Or are in the alternative, do you find yourself overwhelmed with saying “Yes” to often?        This article will not only explain why you should say yes to less, but you will find more successful you become, the more you should eliminate things from your life, stop doing some activities, and say no to tens of seemingly tempting opportunities daily. Why? Because you want to stay sane and actually have enough time and focus for the things that are the most important to you and truly deserve your attention and efforts.

Start Saying No More Often 

If you want peace of mind but also to be action-oriented and constantly move forward in the right direction, you’ll have to let go of the ‘say yes to everything’ mindset. And start saying no instead.

For starters:

  • you’ll be removing people from your life instead of making new friends all the time, you just don’t have enough time for that;
  • you’ll stop doing some of the things you’ve always been doing because they don’t give you the desired result and your time is better spent on other things;
  • you’ll be selective when it comes to consuming information too. You don’t want to be overwhelmed, so you’ll be reading only so much daily/weekly and only by respected sources. You’ll stop watching meaningless videos, will unsubscribe from all newsletters, will stop checking out the news (and dare I say it including social media) all the time, and focus on your most important tasks for the day instead;
  • other people will hear you say no to them more often than usual and may even get offended.
  • constantly review your life goals and daily schedule and ask yourself the following questions:
  1. What’s the 20% that gives me 80% of the results and what can I do to eliminate the rest?
  2. Remove in your life what does not give you pleasure and or does not get you closer to your goals.
  • practice daily planning with planning your day the night before.  Put at the top of your list the 3 most important tasks and tackle them first.

When You Should Say Yes

So when should you say yes, then?

Derek Sivers explains it best in this article: “If I feel anything less than, “Wow! That would be amazing! Absolutely! Hell yeah!” – then my answer is no.

To make this decision easier for you, ask yourself does saying “yes” to this person or request contribute to your bottom line spiritually, mentally, physically, financially or emotionally?  If the answer is “no” then you have your answer.

Now that you know that, sit down and do some brainstorming. Take your time and list your top priorities in every area of life, then see which area matters to you more than the rest.  The key is elimination so what is left is only what truly matters. Put that list in a visible place, go through it daily so that you never forget what’s truly important in your life. And so that you don’t get lost, confused, overwhelmed or worst stuck living out other persons lives, desires and priorities.

Saying yes to less means you’re living your life with intention, one day at a time, constantly doing things that improve you and are the right choice, making time only for what’s necessary and gives you result.

This is an amazing way to live life, and something few have chosen to do.

If you ever feel bad about saying “No” keep in mind some pretty successful people out there are saying no every minute (smile).

So what’s the takeaway?  It’s okay to be picky.  Be picky with your money, time, energy and especially the people you surround yourself with.

InspoFab: Be Intentional In All You Do!

  • Posted By : admin/
  • 0 comments /
  • Under : INSPIRATION

Are you feeling overwhelmed? Do you feel unfulfilled? Are you struggling with organization? Do you want to have a more happier life?

Growing up, in my faith I was told to be intentional when I prayed. In other words, be more specific so I got exactly what I wanted. This concept can be applied to all aspects of your life not just your spiritual one. I recently applied this to my professional life when I was seeking more legal remote work. The minute I stopped applying to everything that was not that I landed the remote position I desired!

What does it mean to be intentional?

Being intentional means you purposefully  interact and engage with your life for your ultimate desired outcome. This means you are purposeful in every word and action.

You respond instead of react. You love instead of fear. You embrace instead of expect. You accept instead of resist.

Why be intentional?

Drake has a rap lyric that says “Everybody dies but not everyone lives.” Be intentional because you want to do more than just get by. Be intentional because you dream and want to have a happy, successful and fulfilling life.

How to live an intentional life

1. Practice consistency with small steps. Create an ideal day and begin to execute some quick and easy actions that reflect that ideal. Whether it’s morning prayer, gym time, or reading a few pages of a book, small consistent action is more important than immediate results because it leads to long term success in the bigger things.

2. Express gratitude. Life is lived in this moment, enjoying what you have here and now versus what will be in the future will lead to a happier life everyday.

3. Take a Breathe. Pause before you make a decision. Taking a moment to reflect before making a final decision will make you more proactive than reactive.

4. Know Yourself. What’s important to you? What do you love to do? Which people are meaningful to you? What inspires you?

5. Discover Your Choices. You may feel stuck sometimes but the truth is you have unlimited choices. Widen your perspective and make a list of your choices so you have a visual for best path for you to take.

6. Declutter your life.  Rid yourself of those things that hold you back from living a purposeful and fulfilling life. This can be bad habits, negative attitudes, situations, and people that do not add value to your life. Like the song says, “I can do bad by myself!”

7. Forgive. Forgive yourself, forgive others. Holding onto resentments holds you back.

8. Stop comparing yourself. It may sound cliche but it doesn’t matter what anyone else is doing. We all have our own paths in life. Even those that appear to have a perfect life DON’T! Do what’s best for you- whether it’s marrying later so you can marry the best person for you or holding out for the job you are truly passionate about. Do what’s best for you!

InspoFab: Spring into YES!

  • Posted By : admin/
  • 0 comments /
  • Under : INSPIRATION

Congratulations! You made it to APRIL.  That means you have made it through 1/3 of the year!  But have you been existing up to this point or LIVING?

Spring symbolizes “new life”.  In that vain, here are some tips to breathe new life into all aspects of your life.

  1.  Clean your house.  According to Psychology Today, researchers have found a connection between a clean house and our mental well-being.  A clean house can help you eat better, be more productive, improve sleep and fight illnesses.
  2. Review your resume.  There’s no time like the present to look for the next dream job.  Confused on where to start?  Check out our Resume Review and Resume Kit Design Services to help you stand out to your next employer.
  3.  Get rid of old relationships that are not ADDING to your life.  There’s an old saying that you can do bad by yourself.  Listen to this.  After 25, friendships and romantic relationships should be beyond social.  Your inner circle should be contributing to you mentally, emotionally, financially or professionally.  If someone in your life is not contributing to you in one of these categories chances are they are DRAINING you.  I have another saying.  I am going to the next level in my life and everybody can’t come with me!
  4. Launch that million dollar business idea (FINALLY!). Have you been procrastinating on launching your business?  Well the journey of a thousand miles starts with the first step.  Select our LLC course in our digital store that will teach you how to file your business online alongside a real lawyer! Are you a creative? Check out our blog, podcast and reality show courses here.
  5. Get a new wardrobe.  Put those winter clothes away and get ready for skirts, dresses and open toe shoes!  Legallyfab.com has a limited collection put together for you every month.  Check out the shop!
