Advice Followed

I have been M.I.A. from Earth 2.0 for a minute…but for the best reason.

In April I took the MasterMind class with Patrick Porter. I was at a place where I wasn’t sure if I should pursue art as a career or continue with the business I had created. The answer was “do both”. Plough a new business model for this new evolution of Earth. Honestly, that seemed crazy. How was I going to do that? I was feeling taxed and overwhelmed by the prospect of running TWO separate businesses.

So, I got busy with my art. Mostly because it fuels me and puts me into a flow state that frees my mind. If you are an artist, you realize that inspiration can be a fickle beast and when you are in the current of creation, you had better ride the tide. So I jumped on my surf board and rode. I had what I am calling an “art attack”. Inspiration found me and my eyes saw possibilities in raw materials. I have ideas stacked up. I am creating more than ever and the work feels inspired.

But, here is what else happened…when I kept myself in a prolonged state of creative flow, people became attracted to me.

I have been trying to get my topical vitamins into stores. I received so many “no’s” or even worse, silence. But when I was vibrating at a higher level because of the art, they came to me. I received a call from the store I wanted to be carried in the most… out of the blue. They said they found my sample box in the back room and decided to use them and they love them so much they wanted to place an order….WHAT?!? Yes!!

Then my social media began to gain followers without me doing a song and dance to attract them.

Then the orders started to come in! OUT OF NOWHERE!!

So, I have sectioned my days into a schedule that is perfectly aligned to me! Vitamins in the AM and art in the evening. The art takes care of my vibration and the vitamins my purpose.

This is the business model for a new earth. One where joy is scheduled into the day. Intentionally. Thanks Fairy for the nudge and thanks Patrick for the possibilities.
