Being Your Authentic Self in Business
I love this article by Christine Kloser.
Have you ever chosen love instead of fear? How did it feel? How did it change you?
Authenticity in business is going to be the only way to thrive as our business climate continues to evolve and transform along with the rest of our world. I’m sure you can feel this shift happening on multiple levels as news of the “real” world clearly indicates (as Rev. Michael Beckwith says) a BIRTHQUAKE is happening.
And, in the birthing of a new way of life on planet Earth, for those who choose to be part of this evolution and part of the change that causes a positive transformation… it’s going to be essential that you stay grounded in your authentic self, and remain true to who you Divinely are.
So, who are you? And, how is your authentic self expressed? For me, I believe this boils down to one thing that lives inside all of us, and that is LOVE!

It’s easy to imagine, as it would likely be the exact opposite of the large scale demise we’re seeing in the traditional “old paradigm” of business. Yes, what would be possible for our world if business were truly based on love?
I can tell you from my own experience the more I bring love into my business, (and the way I express myself through my business), the more success I enjoy, the more fulfilled my clients feel, the more growth and understanding I embrace, the more resources manifest, the more energy I experience, the more grace I feel, the more I love myself… as the cycle of love spirals upward again.

The nudge said to completely dismiss the talk I had prepared to give that night. “What? Are you crazy?,” I said to myself. But, but, but… but my PowerPoint was done for the talk already; but I was supposed to craft a speech that would lead to a sale at the end of my talk; but I didn’t have time to put together a new talk; but what if I blew it changing course at the last minute? But, still… the nudge remained. Continue reading →
