¶ Using Space for Personal Growth
I'm so glad that you're here . You are listening to what the fuck did she just say with your host , that's me , sandra Priestly . I'm all about living our best life and finding our zone of brilliance and then removing the resistance so that we can go all in .
I say random , crazy shit , which is why I called this podcast the way that I did , and I really hate long drawn out intros , so let's fucking go . Welcome back to another episode of what the fuck did she just say . Today is Feng Shui Friday and this is going to be a quickie , but a good one .
Um , earlier in the work this week , one of the women in the group which I think I'm going to call a challenge , I don't know . I , like one of the women in the group , said what do we call this ? Is it a challenge ? Is it ? Is it a program ? And I never really thought about that . I just called it the work and fucking ran out the door .
You know what I mean , like . But I think I'm going to call it a challenge because that is what it is .
It's a commitment to showing up every single day , doing the work , doing the things that you need to do every single day in all of the areas that you can control your thoughts , your emotions , your feelings and what you fucking do , your reactions Like that's it , that's all we can control .
We can't control anyone else , we can't control the wind , we can't control circumstances Like the only thing that we can do is control our thoughts , our emotions and our actions . And so I think it's a 90-day commitment , or longer if you choose , but 90 days . You join and you've got 90 days to just show up every single day and see what the fuck happens .
Because I'm telling you what happens magic . The only thing that stops us from achieving all of our goals manifesting our goals and achieving our goals , or manifesting our dreams and achieving our goals the only thing that stops us is us , and it's because we don't show up , we don't go all in , we don't do the fucking work , like that's it .
So earlier this week , one of the women in the challenge , in the work challenge , one of the women was saying she was struggling throughout the day and so she decided to do a couple of things . Number one she decided to put her daily tasks , like the daily things that she was going to do for her mindset , energy and action .
She was going to put them front and center , so that she was looking at them every single day . She wasn't getting stuck .
And then , all of a sudden , it's like 10 o'clock at night and she's thinking fuck , I haven't journaled , I haven't done my affirmations , I haven't done my exercise , I haven't meditated , I haven't followed my diet and I haven't drank two liters of water . And it's 10 o'clock at night . I'm going to have to do all of this now .
But if you have it in your space , if there's something in your space that triggers you to focus on what it is that you need to do , it's effective . Um , that's feng shui . Right , like we mystify feng shui , we think we have to grab our compass and make everything so complex and and you know , grab some golden , don't Like at the whole .
Core of what I teach feng shui to be is use your space to trick your mind into remembering where the fuck you're going . Your space should not represent where you've been , and especially not where you don't want to be anymore . You want your space to trigger your subconscious mind to go hey , move here , do this . This is let's do this Now .
Here's the other thing . If I were to actually back up the bus , the other thing that she wants to do is she wants to create a sign for herself that she can put somewhere , that she sees , that reminds her to not focus on the past , to not focus on where she was victim to something , to not focus on her , to not throw herself down that rabbit hole .
What she wants is something in her space , a sign in her space to remind her to keep moving forward and to not looking back because , like , we're not going that way .
Right , there's that saying that says something like there's a reason that the windshield is so much bigger than a rear view mirror and that's because the windshield shows you where you're going and a rear view mirror is smaller and it shows you where you've been . I feel like that's a sentence , but I might be wrong , but you get the drift .
It's like , don't look in the rear view mirror , you're not fucking going that way , but we tend to do that . So she's going to put something in her space that makes her feel good , put something in her space that just focuses her forward on goal attainment , why she wants to attain her goals , and something that reminds her to not get stuck in the past .
So I don't have a fancy machine , I don't have , but what I'll do is just literally take an eyebrow pencil and write it on my mirror in my own suite . That's good enough . Like , just need a constant reminder . Stick something on your fucking fridge Although be careful , because you don't want a whole bunch of things on your fridge . Put something on your phone .
I have a picture of myself when I felt my healthiest . It's on the background of my phone . It's my phone wallpaper . I could also put it on my computer . You know you can put something in your space that is speaking to your subconscious mind that says , okay , let's go , let's focus forward . Like , let's not get stuck in the past . Where are we going ?
Why are we going there ? And let's move . Here's the key . You want to put this in a place where it stands out to you so that you notice it . If you were to put a picture or a sign somewhere , you put it in your space and it's in amongst a ton of other things , a lot of other clutter . You're not going to notice the one sign you've added .
You're just going to notice all the clutter and it's just going to become something that you numb to . You don't want to numb to it . You want to have something that is in your space that you notice every day , that has a significant place in your home . Have it a place of significance .
And then , when you start to notice , when you think , oh wait , you know what ? I haven't noticed that sign anymore , I haven't seen it for a while , I'm not paying attention to it . A know that your subconscious mind did , but B move it . Move it or create a new one so that your conscious mind recognizes it as well as the subconscious mind .
I mean , we're all about reprogramming the shit that holds us back right . We're about releasing and reprogramming all of those limiting beliefs . So we're going to do everything we can and we're going to use our space to do it as well . All right , so that's your feng shui Friday of the day . This is the Sandra Priestley version , of course .
Like everything , I hope you have an amazing , amazing weekend . Choose your goal , put something in your space that reminds you of that fucking goal and go all in . If you want to join us in the work , it's a constant intake , so you can start today , you can start in three weeks , you can start tomorrow , you can start I don't know in October .
I want you to start when you're ready .
¶ Overcoming Fear and Taking Action
I also want you to listen to yesterday's podcast because if you're sitting in avoidance because you're needing to be perfect , you're sitting in avoidance because your fear of failure , fear of success , fear of pain you don't need to you can start with us today .
It's super fucking fun and it's incredible because the women in the group already including myself , but like the realizations are unbelievable . It's fun and it just warms my heart when I see the women in the group say M-E-A , I did all of my things today and it feels amazing . It's everything I wanted it to be . I love it . See you tomorrow .
Thank you so much for listening . I hope you've had some laughs , maybe some ideas , and that you've been inspired to take some type of action toward the life you've always dreamed of . If you feel so called , I would love it if you would share with your besties and leave a review down below .
I look forward to bringing you along on this journey and I will see you in the next episode .
