What projects have you been working on during these challenging times?
I’ve just completed my brand-new business handbook Be Your Own Business Guru. I’ve also been filming and recording new episodes of Ready Set Live, which is my personal development, lifestyle, health, and wellness podcast.

Could you give us an idea of what your new book is
all about?
Be Your Own Business Guru is your own personal guidebook dedicated to helping you restore balance to your life by learning how to enrich your spirit and bring your most complete and authentic self to the workplace. For many of us, our work environment will never be the same after the global Covid-19 experience. Every element of life between our professional and personal lives has changed forever. My practical guide to spiritual recovery is filled to the brim with insight and wisdom that will allow you to leave your old negative thought patterns behind and take control of your new future.

My new business handbook takes a closer look at key techniques to overcome barriers to success and encourages readers to make changes that will bring health and balance into their lives. By the time you finish this handbook, you will know how to take 100% responsibility for your mentality and make changes that will have a life-long impact on your personal and professional success. I want to empower readers and teach them how to become more conscious of their everyday actions and attitudes in order to take some of the fear and anxiety out of their lives. This handbook is all about how to finally find spiritual balance and have a breakthrough in life and business.

Ready Set Live focuses on recurring problems and
issues that confront all of us in today’s hectic and toxic world. I give simple and practical strategies for those seeking to improve their lives and relationships. The show has featured celebrities and expert guests in personal development, health, fitness, and lifestyle. It is an entertaining, inspirational, and informative show that gives you the tools to create health and happiness in all areas of your life.

What was the inspiration for writing Be Your Own Business Guru?
Through my global coaching work, I have realized that many people all over the world are still struggling with internal issues that are not in alignment with their daily business aspirations. I want to help people take charge and become the creators of their paths during this time
of uncertainty and adversity. People need to be reminded how to be courageous and use their burning desire to manifest personal success. In the modern world, people stress the most about their job, or their achievements,
or their wealth. I just want everyone to be able to refocus and put more energy into their mental, spiritual, and physical well-being so that they can find more success in their personal and business endeavors. Remember, you are not a “human doing.” You are a “human being.”

What are the steps one needs to take in order to achieve a goal?
I write about this in detail in my previous book, The
Yes Frequency. Each of us has the freedom to live as we choose. When we make a choice, it is backed by all of the will, purpose, and intent in the universe. Since there are no limits to the power of the universe, there are no limits to our lives. We all have the potential to create a great life for ourselves. It’s essential to say YES before you take steps to find your passion, purpose, and goals.

Step #1: Focusing on YOU is the most important step in manifesting your goal. Pay attention to your thoughts and actions
on a daily basis. Are you taking a “NO” approach to everything? Don’t resist the opportunity, and remember that your words and thoughts have energy that creates a cause and effect situation.

Step #2: Eliminate or greatly reduce the NO response. Get in the habit of resisting the NO. When you always think or say NO, you’ll find more NO in your life, which will shrink your life into an unfulfilling and unhappy state.

Step #3: Replace your daily NO habit to a YES habit. Think and say YES instead. Especially say YES to the hurdles and challenges ahead of you, seeing them as opportunities. The more you say it, think it, and believe it, the closer you arrive to your goals.

Step #4: Expand from YES habits to affirmations. Write out simple, positive sentences that keep you focused on your goals and highly motivated. You could say, “today I attract an incredible new job” or “today I release all old habits or patterns that stopped me from living my dream.

Step #5: Now, it is time to take action. Action is critical. When you’re walking through life in a YES state, it acts as a powerful magnet to manifest your dreams. You will quickly begin to attract the right people and opportunities to help you obtain what you want. Accepting the YES is the important part, as you can always choose to use the power of that YES at a later time.

How can I start feeling better?
One of my proven models of success is taking action steps each day towards achieving a specific goal. Focus your mind and body on having discipline, implementing repetition, and restructuring your belief system. It all starts with you. As you begin to modify your thoughts, words, and actions, you will
start to feel differently about yourself and your environment. Whether you realize it or not, your life is directed by the choices you make and the beliefs you hold. Before you know it, you will be a calmer, more centered person with reduced levels of fear and anxiety.

How can I manifest happiness?
Essentially, happiness is results without expectations, so if your expectations are low and your actions are powerful, then you will generate more happiness. If you keep raising your expectations, then you may stay motivated, but you will never truly be happy, no matter how much you manage to achieve. You’ll still feel just as unfulfilled as you did at your previous, less successful stages of life. Happiness is not something that can be found or purchased. It is a state of well-being that we put ourselves into. When we maintain a core belief that life is meant to be enjoyed, then all of the setbacks and disappointments we face will never take away from our current happiness.

Is money everything in life?
Having success with money is a result of your behaviors, so it’s important to begin by self-improving mentally and spiritually, even if what you desire is material wealth. Someone very intelligent who has no control over their actions or emotions can often end up in financial ruin, while the average person with zero education in finance can end up successful and abundant if they possess a few key behavioral habits. Many people who are in search of money have lost sight of the importance of maintaining balance in their lives. All the money in the world will not make you happy if you don’t work on your spiritual growth and alignment. You must remember to seek happiness whenever you seek wealth.

What are some pitfalls on the road to success?
Getting stuck in a toxic cycle of negative thoughts or falling into the victim mentality. Many individuals see themselves as a victim and don’t believe they have any control over their lives. It can be very difficult, especially in the business world, to always stay positive and build good habits. Without a positive core mindset and consistent action items, we will always get in our own way and hinder our own success. It all comes down to steering clear of all forms of negativity.

How can we escape from negativity?
Begin by ridding your minds of negative attachments. Negative attachments are thoughts that echo in your head over and over again. We expect the worst outcome to a situation in business or life, and we can’t stop obsessing over the situation we imagine. If you truly wish to experience your authentic self and inner peace, you must learn to let go of your negative attachments. It is so easy for the mind to dwell on past problems and mistakes. Let the emotional experiences that you would rather forget to be remembered as helpful learning lessons. Practice the power of forgiveness by putting aside feelings of unworthiness and incompleteness, and start seeing yourself as being centered and validated. Forgive yourself and forgive the past, and then continue onwards to achieving your business and personal goals.

How do I deal with stress and anxiety?
Without question, stress and anxiety will appear suddenly in our lives and cause mayhem. Since these negative emotions are unavoidable, how we cope with them is of the utmost importance. Some people panic when confronted with the slightest hardships, while others masterfully navigate the most devastating kinds of circumstances. Most of us function somewhere between these two extremes, but we need to learn to handle our “crisis situations” in the most constructive and spiritually sound ways possible. If we can acknowledge the strong emotions of anger, frustration, guilt, and anxiety that surface during stressful and challenging times and not deny or suppress them, then we will have a breakthrough instead of a breakdown.

So how do we go about capturing and internalizing this new energy?
We have to live life and do business with a positive attitude in the face of overwhelming stress and anxiety. Positive thinking, good eating, proper exercise, and meditation are great ways to reset and refocus. These actions allow our highest level of spiritual energy to guide us through every moment of the day.

How can people continue to be successful, even during a pandemic?
Unfortunately, this pandemic has been devastating for the employment and financial opportunities of many individuals worldwide. However, it is important to reframe everything in a positive state of mind. This is our chance to look within and change the way we have been working, rediscover our talents, and find better ways to apply ourselves. Thanks to widespread and accessible technology, each and every one of us have more opportunity than ever to learn valuable skills and improve our ability to reach people all over the world. We have to learn to adapt and stay current with technology so that we have some stability and advantages in an ever-changing world.

What message would you like to leave with our readers?
All the answers to your questions are within you. Trusting yourself is an affirmation of trust in life. All you need to do is restore yourself to whom and what you truly are. You can have exactly what you want when you want it, all the time. To live with vision is to live with passion. Living is empty without passion. Passion is the source of your vital energy, enlisting the support of your heart and soul. Combine that passion with persistence and commitment, and the world is yours.
