I can't believe it's already April and the first quarter of 2006 is history. This past week I decided to take out the Vision Statement I wrote in January and revisit it. I realized I had gotten really busy "doing" and I needed to step back for a moment and just "be." I find we often make things harder than they need to be by trying to force the outcomes we think should be happening. Instead of just doing our part and then trusting.

Whenever I take the time to step back, focus on my positive affirmations and my vision, something incredible happens to renew my faith in the power of the universe. An amazing example of this happened last week. My marketing priority this month has been selling out my Spring Extreme Marketing Makeover Program.

I had been invited to teach two teleseminars, but instead of putting together an incredible offer for my makeover program to close the teleseminars with, I simply let the participants know how they could learn more about 10stepmarketing. I got off the second call and decided to meditate. A short while later a participant in one of the courses registered for my Extreme Marketing Makeover Program.

Later that day several particpants from the other teleseminar contacted me about participating in my makeover program, and to let me know they had several friends that wanted to join them. My immediate response was, "Wow, that was easy!" And then I remembered that manifesting what we want doesn't have to be a struggle. But so often we make it one.

I'd like to invite you to step back and remember what it is you're trying to create. Then ask yourself if you're forcing the issue, or, if you're doing your part and then leaving room for the marketing magic to unfold. Very often the marketing magic is much more powerful than we could create on our own. So be sure to allow room for it.
