8 Tips to Connect To Your Brilliance


Do you ever get thrown off or your brilliance because you start listening to the Negative Nancy Crowd?  Btw, no offense intended toward anyone named Nancy.  See, that is an example, always trying to speak to everyone, make sure that all bases are covered, instead of just getting to the point of what you have to share!  

Here are your 8 tips to remain connected to your brilliance.

1. Make a list of times, places, spaces, environments, groups, etc where you feel safe to SHINE.


2. Identify situations where you feel most safe to be yourself.  

3. Identify times when you feel most inspired.

4. Clarify when you notice your creative juices flowing.

5. What time of the day do ideas come to you?


6. Create your BRILLIANCE Zone and then, GO THERE!  Give yourself permission to allow 
your brilliance to flow independent of outside influences.


7. Make a list of compliments and positive feedback that you've received.  Connect with the truth of this being who you are.  Yes, we ALL have bad days, we are human. The truth of who you are, the brilliance of who you are is always a positive.

8. INCREASE the time spent in your brilliance zone and limit your time spent with people and in situations where your brilliance is drained, hidden or shunned.  This may mean that you limit who you share your wins with - sorry Mom.  It may mean that you are intentional about where you're spending your time.  Most importantly, it means that you are choosing to give your attention, time, and energy to the brilliance that you have to offer the world.

As Marianne Williamson said in A Return to Love, "We ask ourselves, 'Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?' Actually, who are you not to be?"  You are here to be brilliant!  I see your brilliance and I believe in your ability to show up with courage, claiming who you are and what you are here to share with the world! 



Allowing your energy and brilliance to be diminished by those who may not appreciate or value it means that those who NEED your brilliance MISS OUT.  SHINE on.  Shine BRIGHTLY and be sure to surround yourself, as much as possible, with those who will support you to do just that.  If they're exceptionally great friends, they'll also motivate, inspire and encourage you to keep discovering new ways of shining even brighter.  They'll continue to support you to polish your natural ability to SHINE!

May this week be filled with moments of you feeling connected with your zone of brilliance!
