Assignment begins below. Please take the course of your week to complete. If it takes you longer, that is okay. Be patient with yourself as you thoughtfully think through it all.
Goal
We re-wrote our goals! This week, we re-settle our minds bodies and spirits. I’d like to remind you that the opposition is real. The closer you get to your goal, the harder the opposition fights you. If you are struggling big time right now, rest assured…you are so close you could probably taste it!
What would Beyonce do? Okay, maybe you are not a part of the Bey-hive…what would so and so do? Who’s your favorite millionaire/billionaire? This is an interesting question because I was thinking of Beyonce today and how when she released this latest album, Kelis made a ton of noise about her voice being sampled. I had smart mouthed comments about how Bey went to the owner of the song and that is why Kelis wasn’t consulted. My response would have resulted in a bunch of back and forth bickering that was not even really necessary. What did Beyonce do?
Only the smartest thing ever!
She removed Kelis’ vocals, removed the credit on the album (thus removing any royalties Kelis would have received), re-recorded and re-released the new track and carried on. She literally shut the noise up in an instant and went on making her money.
This is why the question “What would Beyonce do?” is so genius. You can replace ‘Yonce with anyone you love to watch because that person probably has the same type of mentality that you have, right? So what would this person do?
Grab your journal, write out what opposition you are facing right now…and what would your person do? Does this sound like something you could consider?
Identify
The object here is to identify with people you look toward as a celebrity mentor. Now that you wrote out what this person would do, make a list of the things about this person that makes you identify with them so much. What are your similarities? Make this list no less than ten things! Are there any traits of this person that is the complete opposite of you? What are they? List it all out.
Look at this list. Study it.
Remember how we talked about BE, DO, and then HAVE? Who do you have to BE???
Affirmation
I make better choices every single day!
