Transcript

We always come back to the question,

Where is my focus?

Am I being the match,

The beingness,

The person who is matching that which I desire to create?

Because remember,

How we create our future is right now,

In this moment.

So today,

We are chatting about how to realign to your best year yet.

Okay,

Because we've got about four months left of the year.

And what I see is often people at this point,

If they're not kind of near their goal that they set at the start of the year,

They start to lose a little bit of that zhoosh and a little bit of that motivation and inspiration that they started the year with.

So the purpose of today is really to get you back in that inspired space that you started the year with by realigning,

Reconnecting to the goals that you had at the start of the year about what this would be like.

What 2023 would look like for you,

Your life and your business.

What we'll do today is we'll have a short chat on this topic and how to do that.

And then at the very end,

We'll do an energy integration slash connection.

Depends what the group as a whole feels like we need.

Okay,

Let's get started.

Realigning to your best year yet.

We have about three months left of this year to nail it or to achieve or to win or to feel like at the end of 2023,

You are celebrating what has been an amazing year.

Now,

If this is not you already,

If you feel like hmm,

I am not where I thought I would be by 2023,

This chat today is especially for you.

And if you are kicking goals already,

This chat is also for you because if you're already kicking goals,

Then it's time to sort of reevaluate your goals and go bigger.

If you're not kicking goals,

If you kind of haven't hit the mark that you wish you had,

You still have time.

And I guess today's chat realigning to your best year yet is really about your focus.

So where has your focus gone?

Because remember that whatever we pay attention to,

We give energy to.

Wherever our attention goes,

Energy flows.

So where have you started to attend to in terms of your goals?

And I open this for you to actually reflect.

So there can be a tendency when we listen to podcasts or we listen to lectures or we listen to live talks to listen and then do nothing about it.

I really hope that for you,

You do something about this,

Right?

Because what actually changes your world is when you take action on things.

So when you think about where it is that you're attending to,

Where it is that you are putting your focus on right now in terms of your goals,

Where have you gone?

Where has your mind gone?

Are you still dreaming and even more so,

Are you still being the energetic resonance that is a match to the desires that you have,

That you set at the start of this year?

Or,

Have you lost focus and it started to go in a direction that is not aligned to the type of life that you wish to live,

The type of goals that you wish to have reached,

To the type of person that you need to become in order to create the dreams that you have?

Where has your focus been?

Where are you paying attention?

Now,

As I said,

Please don't take this as a rhetorical question where you're like,

Oh,

This is nice to talk about.

Go and reflect on this.

I really encourage you to do this.

So,

I may be after the fact of listening to this,

You're going to go and journal and really ask where is my attention?

Where are my thoughts?

Where is my energy?

What am I focusing on?

Because it is in the present moment that we get to change our future reality.

Our future doesn't change in the future.

Our future doesn't change in the past.

Our future changes now.

Because the only real moment is now.

And so,

When we talk about energy alignment or resonance with the dreams that you have for yourself,

It is about making sure that your focus is on the being of the person who creates his,

Her or their dream now.

So,

That kind of implies that you are being the person who has already created what they desire at this moment right now.

You are acting in a way like the person who has already created their desires right now.

You are thinking in a way as if you are the person who has created their dreams and desires right now.

Can you see the shift that happens when you start to focus on being the person who has already created their dreams and desires?

So,

What we really need to do is take a look at where we are thinking,

Where we are acting,

Where we are being,

That is not an alignment to our dreams having happened right now.

Because it is now,

In this moment of time,

That you then create your reality in the future.

You do not create your reality when you get there,

I.

E.

In the future.

That's not possible.

Because the only moment that you have available to you is this moment right now,

Here.

So,

Your job to realign yourself to having your best year yet is maybe refocus on those big dreams and desires that you had at the start of the year.

Those lofty dreams and goals.

And start inquiring and being completely honest with yourself about where your focus has been.

What have you started attending to instead?

Who have you started being instead?

That is out of alignment to what it is that you really want to create in your life.

So,

If you're focusing on,

It's not here yet,

It will never be here.

Remember,

Like attracts like.

We need to reassess as well what it is that we had created for ourselves at the start of the year because you're not the same person that you were at the start of this year.

Our soul-led goals don't have to stay the same.

So,

You might be in review of the year that has been and actually what you had projected at the start of the year for what you wanted to achieve is no longer in alignment to what you actually want.

And the pathway of what you thought that you're going to do that has changed and it's going to be better.

You are in constant evolution and so your goals will naturally be in constant evolution.

And now,

Personally for me,

When I set my goals for the start of the year,

They're like a they're almost like a way to keep my focus and to keep my attention going forward in some way.

But I know that I don't necessarily need to hit all of them.

And I know that when I do reassessments,

Which are usually monthly and I do quarterly ones as well,

That they get to change because I am in evolution and I change very rapidly and I know that you do too because you are awake and you are aware.

So,

Maybe when you are looking at realigning yourself to your best year yet,

You're going to look at those goals and go,

You know,

Some of these no longer fit me and that's absolutely fine.

You get to readjust the goals so that they are still in that vibration that you know is the highest expression of your life on earth.

This is actually something that I use quite a lot.

I ask for soul to enter and guide me so that I can be the highest expression of my life on earth.

The highest expression of my soul living in a human experience.

I ask for that constantly.

It's almost like my little prayer.

Please show me how I can be the highest expression of my soul on earth.

It changes.

It depends like the words which I decide to use on the day.

But the resonance is the same.

What I'm asking is that knowing that I am really an energetic being in a human body,

Having a human experience.

Knowing that I ask for my mind to be not in control but for soul,

God,

Universe,

Source,

All that is.

I ask for that to come through and to use me as a conduit to be the highest expression and to do the best work that I am here to do on this earth.

And I often use that at the end of my day too,

At night.

It's kind of like at night we get to reset our focus.

And this is a really great practice for you to take on when you are thinking about refocusing to or realigning to your best year yet.

And as we said,

What that really means is what are you focusing on?

The question is what are you focusing on?

At the very end of the day before you go to sleep is a really good time to recalibrate your mind,

Your energy and your physical body,

Your subconscious part of you to the goals and dreams that you have.

And so I often use that prayer or affirmation or wish or intention at that moment.

I say,

Show me how I can be the highest expression of myself on earth.

And I go to sleep.

And I know that in that rest time where my mind isn't so occupied,

Where my senses aren't so occupied with that which keeps us human and therefore limited.

In that space of sleep I get to recalibrate on all levels to realign to what soul has in store for me to create for this year.

And this is for me in terms of my life and also in terms of the work that I do.

And so knowing that,

It inevitably changes the goals that I have.

Because often the goals come from a mind place,

They come from an ego place.

Even with the best intentions of having them come through your soul.

And so sometimes the pathway of which we think is going to be created for us is completely different to what soul has in store for us.

Because remember that when we're trying to think of ways,

It comes from the mind.

And the mind is in the realm of the ego.

And the ego is limited.

And so we can only think within the limitations of what it is that we already know and that what we have already experienced.

Now the soul or consciousness or higher self or universal energy or source or God or however it is that you phrase it for yourself.

That energy is limitless.

And so therefore the pathway of which you get to create your highest expression of your soul on earth can look completely different to what it is that you can think.

It's because your mind can actually not fathom what it is that soul has in store for you.

And this is why it is extremely important for us to be flexible.

For us to often reconnect with soul or source or God.

Because it will continually show us the pathway and it will continually guide us to be,

If it is our desire,

The highest expression of your life on earth.

And then we always come back to the question,

Where is my focus?

Am I being the match,

The beingness,

The person who is matching that which I desire to create?

Because remember,

How we create our future is right now,

In this moment.

So let's just wrap up what we have talked about today.

Today was really chatting about realigning to your best year yet.

Reflecting on the goals that you set for yourself at the start of the year and just inquiring as to whether they are still in alignment to what it is,

Who it is that you are now and who it is that you are being the expression of.

Are they still in alignment to what it is that you as you are now,

As you are more connected to soul now,

Want to create?

So that's the first thing is reviewing those goals.

And then,

Once you've reviewed those goals,

Asking the really important question of,

What am I focusing on?

Because remember that where you pay attention,

Energy goes.

So you need to be really aware of the thoughts,

Of the beingness,

Of the actions that you are taking.

Are they in alignment to who it is that you would be if you had created your goals already?

So what are you focusing on?

Have you started to focus on the fact that the goals aren't here yet?

Have you started to focus on the fact that maybe you haven't moved or improved that much compared to what you thought you would have?

What are you focusing on?

And is what you are focusing on going to help you to actually be the person that has created their dreams or not?

So now,

As I said at the start,

Don't take this as a rhetorical question.

Go home and do the work.

The change happens when you do the work.

And I don't want you to sit here and take it all in and go,

That was really nice to hear.

I want you to go home and journal this.

I want you to go home and reflect on this properly.

It's in the reflection that you're going to realise where your focus really is.

What are your thoughts?

What are your actions?

What is your beingness?

Where is your energy at?

That is when we are completely honest with ourselves.

That is when we have the opportunity to change who it is that we be.

And remember that who it is that you be right now at this present moment is what creates your future.

So it is really important for you to be the person who has already created your big dreams and desires.

And then equally we can ask soul,

Spirit,

God,

Universal love,

Energy,

All that is,

That great source of the ineffable energy that we are all tapped into.

You can ask that to assist you to make sure that you are on the pathway and goals that really truly matter for your life on earth.

Alright,

We're going to go into the last part of today's chat.

We always end with a kind of energy meditation integration.

Before we do that I just want to remind you that you've been here with me,

Nick Chung.

Click going,

Put them into your calendar and make sure that you turn up live.

You have the opportunity to ask me questions when you are live.

Alright,

Let me tune in to the energy of the group.

Give me a moment.

Okay.

What we're going to do today is we're going to do an,

What can I say it is?

It's a realignment of your energy to the right focus.

What I mean by right is the focus that your soul or God or universal energy or source wants for you.

So when I say right focus,

It's not the focus on the egoic desires and dreams that we have.

It is the focus on the reason why you are put on this earth.

And that is going to put you into alignment of the dreams and the future that you are destined to have,

Which is greatness.

So if that sounds like fun for you,

Stay on board and we will probably spend about 10 minutes together on this focus.

So if it is safe for you to do so,

Close down your eyes.

Get yourself really comfortable.

If you have your legs folded,

Just unfold them.

Rest your hands wherever you desire and start to tune in to the breath.

Turning your attention inwards.

Noticing the breath in and out.

And noticing how natural breathing is for you.

And just as your breathing is natural,

So is it for you to create abundance,

Prosperity and your soul's desires on earth.

And just as it is easy for you to breathe in and out,

So is it just as easy for you to create abundance,

Prosperity and your soul's desires on earth.

This ease comes from nature.

Your natural unfolding,

Your natural evolution.

And continuing to focus on the breath.

Noticing the ease.

Noticing the naturalness of this action.

And as we breathe,

We invite any of those aligned energies that help you to create your best work on this earth.

To be breathed in down into the cellular level of your body.

And into the energetic field of you.

And we breathe out anything that is not that energy.

Often when we're breathing we're breathing out any egoic desires.

Any egoic thoughts that are stopping you from creating your big work in the world.

Any egoic trauma.

Any egoic limitations.

Any egoic beliefs,

Thoughts and way of being that are not aligned with you being the highest expression of self.

Breathing in and breathing out.

And as you have breathed in so naturally so easily and as you have equated this naturalness and ease to the naturalness and ease that is that occurs when you follow your soul into abundance and prosperity.

Take that special energy and I want you to tune into that particular energy frequency of abundance prosperity and ease of creation that is inherent in you.

You are a creator.

It comes so naturally to you.

It is part of your DNA.

It is part of your energetic field.

And for those of you who wish to have assistance from me I am just helping you to really tap into that frequency.

So if you would like that just say yes in your third eye.

And we are all really honing in on the frequency of you as the creator.

And in that frequency is that ease.

Is that natural tendency natural beingness of being a creator.

Focus on that energy.

Breathe it in.

Focus your third eye on it.

Focus your heart.

Align.

Focus your solar plexus your sacral,

Your root,

Your throat chakra,

Your crown chakra.

Focus all of your energy fields energy centers.

Focus all of yourself on this frequency.

This natural frequency of creation.

And breathe nice and deep.

Breathe this into your body.

Relaxing into this frequency.

Breathing this into your energetic field.

Relaxing into this frequency.

Breathing this into your mind and relaxing your mind into this frequency.

And now we take the mind and we pretend to look forward but really what we're doing is looking right here because remember that right here is where you create your future.

But let's pretend with our mind that we're looking forward into the future.

And here we keep the focus and the focus is of the energetic frequency that you are in right now.

Look forward and see the pathway that is lit by that frequency.

And rather than you walking towards the creation of your goals and not even the goals coming to you,

At every step be be the creator who has already created what it is that your soul truly desires to create through you.

And expand this feeling.

Take it into yourselves.

Expand it out.

Settle any disruption,

Disruptive thoughts or misaligned frequencies with deep breaths.

And we'll just take three beautiful big breaths to anchor this in to here and now for you.

So we're getting ready to come back to this world.

Before you open your eyes,

Just breathing in,

Reminding yourself of the feeling of being.

The frequency match.

And the feeling of the naturalness of being a creator.

Just like breathing.

So natural,

So easy.

And so is your ability to create abundance and prosperity in your soul's dreams,

Your soul's goals and desires.

So natural,

So easy.

Noticing where your focus is.

Right here,

Right now,

As the creator of your desires.

And when you're ready,

Wiggling toes,

Fingers and fluttering eyelids open.

And heading into the rest of your day with the energetic focus on the frequency that is a match to the soul's desires and dreams for your best year yet.

And welcome back everyone.

I hope that that was of contribution to your lives.

Today we have been chatting about realigning to your best year yet.

It's all about focus.

It's all about frequency.

It's all about getting out of your mind and tapping back into your heart and soul.

But remember the big journaling question I asked you to take away to really work on is,

Where is your focus?

And when you do the work of,

Say this question,

Taking this question and working on it and really reflecting honest reflection,

That is when you actually change your life.

So please,

Don't just hop off this live and do nothing about it.

Go and take that question to your journal.

Think about where your focus is in terms of your soul's desires and dreams.

And start to identify where there is some work for you to realign yourself.

Now we have realigned yourself to some capacity but as you go through the rest of the week and the rest of the year,

This may slip a little bit and this is normal.

Why?

Because we're humans interacting with the human world.

We're egos interacting with other egos.

And so we sometimes forget.

Being a human,

We sometimes forget that we're actually a soul.

And so it's especially important in those moments to realign yourself.

Your only job is to align.

Align and take action.

So please go home,

Reflect where is your focus at?

When your focus slips,

Where is your focus at?

And bring yourself back to this alignment.

So thank you so much for your attention.

You have been with me,

Nick Chung.

I am a leadership mentor for changemakers and leaders who are here to create a huge impact in the world through their work.

We talked today about realigning to your best year yet and we talked very much about the focus that you have right now.

Remember that your future is created in the now.

So you need to understand who it is that you be right now.

So if you're feeling like a little bit like the year's coming up and I'm not quite sure if I'm going to hit the things,

Where is your focus at?

If you have any more questions after today,

Pop into my free group on Insight Time of the Soul Lead Business Revolution,

Ask me questions there.

Come and check out my profile with loads of free meditations available for you to go into and I would love to see you so if this was fun for you,

Go and look at my profile.

You'll see my upcoming lives.

Hit going,

Put into your calendar and make sure you turn up because then we get to hang out and you get to ask questions as we are talking about the topic of the day.

And I hope that I get to be in your world a little bit more and you get to be in mine.

Much love and appreciation for you and the work that you bring into the world.

Bye for now.
