For years, women have been held back by the infamous ‘glass ceiling’ and have also felt stifled or riddled with restrictive thoughts running through their minds daily when it comes to both their personal and professional goals:

‘Why even try? It’s too hard. It will never happen.’

When resignation and anxiety weave through our minds like a sticky web of confusion – it’s time to play “The Possibility of Five.”

We all have to deal with the practical of life where the path we take appears blocked. But, when we realize it might be happening to enlighten us of ‘adjustments’ we need to make – the door to possibility opens. It’s then we can choose new ways to approach where our mind has been spinning in misery and misconception.

The Possibility of Five:

Look for what challenges you most. Find the five possibilities that create a solution – ones that will make you love life again – allowing you to know the world isn’t black & white – but many shades of exquisite gray.

1) Slow your mind and connect to your source of inspiration by tapping into Stillness, whether it’s in a few deep breaths or a longer session.

2) Review the question in your mind that has you asking for new answers. Let it stroll through the Stillness until ideas arise.

3) List at least five possibilities in a journal that lead will lead to positive outcome.

4) Feel the weight being lifted from your shoulders as you see there is always more than one-way it-has-to-be.

5) Empower yourself to take inspired action on the possibilities that now lie ahead of you.

No matter whom the individuals are that surround you, no matter what cynicism grips them – are a generous, empowering, inspiring source of energy that can shift concepts in a moment and bring the power of possibility alive.

When we are connected to that core of strength, love and potential that exists within every human being – doors open to more possibility than we ever dreamed. Why not try it now with your child, yourself, and your mate.

Marlise teaches people from around the world to reboot their lives thru The Simplicity of Stillness, so their journey in life can be more balanced and enjoyable.  She describes “The Possibility of Five” as a way for women to break through the restrictive thoughts and negative mind-chatter that often consume their time and exhaust their energy.
