This month, we will focus on Tile 62 - Preparing

Preparing is a great tile to focus on this January, given we have just entered a new year, which brings change and new possibilities.

Whether we deliberately pursue personal transformation and growth or have it thrust upon us, we can greatly improve our chances of achieving success by preparing for the changes we seek:

In our latest newsletter, we will look into Tile 62 - Preparing. I hope by engaging in this short extract, you feel more able to navigate transitions both small and large, and navigate the future with purpose and intentionality.

Tile 62 - Preparing

You are still in the tunnel. Now that you are ready and the inner drive is activated, it is time to prepare. Ready is not enough, we need a way forward to channel that readiness into.

There are two parts (1) preparing the external and (2) preparing the internal:

  1. Preparing the external.  What action is required?  What questions need answering?

If it is to travel to a new adventure location, you book the ticket. If it is to apply to a wonderful new job opportunity, you do what it takes to apply. If it is to have a courageous conversation with a colleague or your boss that you haven't ever been able to do before, because you find it difficult to set boundaries, you set up the meeting. This is the final part, setting up the external situation that was once too challenging, or you were ignorant of the possibility of it being able to happen.

2. Preparing the internal

You spend time considering what it is that held you back and if and how it is going to stop you proceeding.  You have 59 entrapments to choose from, each one capable of restraining you by the nature of the stories at each tile.  What are the entrapment(s) most likely to pull you back to below 60?  Where does that feeling live within you? Own it, identify with it, invite it to the surface as it may be very subconscious. Where did it come from? How does it seem to be serving you? What story does it have?  The key here is to spend time experiencing or feeling the limitation/entrapment to the surface, with the intention to release more truth if required and to get it ready for tile 64, releasing. 

Please see Awareness Code, to refresh your memory and help you visually assess what / if any 0-59 entrapments are holding you back:

Now that you have had time to perform a self-assessment of your internal and assess external, I would encourage you to listen to the video below and read the empowering statements to help accelerate your readiness:

Empowering Statements

  1. Let’s gather some information and collect ideas.  You need more, new context.  Ask others how they see you.
  2. The past is done.  It was full of trial and error.  Let error be your teacher as a way forward.
  3. Everything that has happened has prepared you for this moment.  Everything you do is grist for your mill of your unfolding growth and learning.  It is showing you what needs to be released.

What changes are you preparing for? Have you got an action plan in place?
