There is, basically, one key to doing everything successfully.

This week, I’ve been thinking a lot about how there seems to be one key to everything — like to being more yourself in your world and in that thing you do out there, to losing weight, to healing your relationship with food (and, healing other relationships) and feeling really strong in your life.

That one key is pretty much what led to me finding, and now, doing, this work that I do out here.

And because of my experience in figuring this out and helping you figure your stuff out, too, I see that there is one commonality in people who do things successfully.

When I say, “successfully,” I mean successfully doing things in the right way for you. The one key to doing everything shows you the way to do anything to be the most perfect way for you (whatever that thing may be!).

With the one key thing, you feel right, acting from your deepest place of strength and peace.

The one key to doing basically everything is to reconnect to yourself.

Reconnecting to yourself is the key to basically everything that you want to do. Reconnecting to yourself is kind of an abstract concept, but it means being in touch with who you are, at your core, what your driving purpose is, and knowing what you want.

It’s the strongest place (for you) on the planet. It’s been my experience that once you get connected with yourself, from that place you know what to do in each instance and what you truly want. And, often times, things just kind of work out.

I could site a bunch of people who agree with me, but I don’t feel really feel like I need to because I think you know that I’m speaking the truth.

So, if feeling peaceful and knowing who you truly are appeals to you, keep reading. I’ll tell you some right-now steps to get started.

Knowing who you are and what you want may sound simple, but if it were really easy, we’d all be connected right now. We lose who we truly are in the busy activity of our days, the perceived expectations of others, and the fears of the unknown and what-ifs that surround us all.

Which all just makes it is all the more important to know how to reconnect. Here are some simple things to do now to get you reconnected to yourself so that you can successfully go out and do, well, anything.

• Find a memory that brings you oh-so-much joy. This act of “treasuring” memories that bring you happiness reconnects you to things that make the real you happy, and your physical experience when thinking of that memory is just as if that thing were truly happening. You can give yourself the experience of a great, youified, day in your head.
• Exercise. It’s so easy, but moving around with the purpose of giving yourself something that will reconnect you and help you be more of yourself, instead exercising for the purpose of losing weight or getting ripped (definitely the other purpose that I struggle with… um, not at all) restores you and provides clarity like you wouldn’t believe.
• Focus on your heart. This is a little exercise that Tia Dayton taught me. It may sound a smidge cheesy… but, focus on your heart and imagine that love is moving all around it, and that all you need is all around your heart. I do this probably 50 million times each day, and it’s incredibly soothing and centering.
• Sit in the sunshine and just breath. I know it’s simple, but I’ve actually bothered to do this for about 15 minutes each day lately, and it changes my entire perspective. I know like you probably do that vitamin D makes helps release seratonin in your brain, which makes you happy, but, really, it does — and, it reconnects you to yourself, too.
• Remember all of the people who have gone before you. Reconnecting with yourself also means being connected to everyone in the universe, so you can go at that backwards by first feeling connect to others. Find someone who has overcome the obstacle that you’re struggling with (all successful people have struggled their fannies off) and look at where they are now. My favorite: Lincoln ran for office 20 million times in a row and lost, while his first and then second wives passed away, and he had a tremendously successful life.
• Meet yourself where you are. Instead of thinking, I should do this! I should be that! Write down all of the reasons why it makes perfect sense that you are feeling how you do, right now. Feeling crappy? Maybe it’s because you don’t like your job and are new to a city; maybe it’s because you went to bed late. There’s a reason, and accepting where you gets you connected to who you are now, and then you’ll know what to do now.
• Drink more water (but, more mindfully). Get present in the moment to reconnect with yourself by tasting the water that you’re drinking, how it feels when you swallow and how you feel after drinking it. It’s easy, and you can do it every time you take a sip and get reconnected to yourself.

Keeping it all together, and staying connected all of the time, is not exactly our destinies, I’m sorry to say. Our destiny is to fumble, screw it all up and quit, feel like we’re losing our grip and piss everyone off. (Or, is that just me??)

And, THEN, our destiny is to reconnect. Again and again and again. It gets easier pretty quickly with some practice, I promise.

And now that you have the key to, basically, everything, try one of these bad boys out and see if you don’t feel a little closer to calm, clarity and ready for your perfectly right, next action.
