This approach relies on the use of fear to trigger a desired response, such as buying a product or supporting a political candidate. The psychological and social implications of monetized fear can be profound, with impacts on personal growth, self-efficacy, and spirituality.</span></b></p><p><b><br /></b></p><p><b>Firstly, engaging in monetized fear can have negative consequences for individual psychology. Fear is a powerful emotion that can cause individuals to experience stress, anxiety, and uncertainty. When fear is monetized, individuals are forced to confront these emotions repeatedly, leading to the development of conditioned responses that can impact their behavior in adverse ways. For example, individuals may become overly cautious, paranoid, or mistrustful, leading to stunted personal growth and reduced self-efficacy.</b></p><p><b><br /></b></p><p><b><span style="color: #351c75;">Secondly, fear-based marketing and media practices can also have significant implications for society and culture. Monetized fear can create division and polarization by promoting fear of The Other or an external enemy, which creates an us versus them mentality. This can lead to further social injustice and inequality as groups compete for resources and power. Additionally, fear-based marketing and media can also contribute to a culture of fear, where fear is seen as the primary motivator, and trust, empathy, and cooperation are undervalued.</span></b></p><p><b><br /></b></p><p><b>Examples of <a href="https://soundcloud.com/real-double-dose-channel/monetized-fear">monetized fear</a> include political campaigns that rely on fear to motivate voters, such as campaigns that promote fear of immigrants or terrorism. These campaigns use fear to manipulate citizens by presenting an exaggerated or distorted picture of reality that promotes fear, uncertainty, and doubt. Similarly, fear-based marketing tactics used by pharmaceutical companies may create a culture of disease, where individuals are convinced that they require medication to manage all of their problems.</b></p><p><b><br /></b></p><p><b><span style="color: #990000;">To overcome fear-based conditioning, individuals must first become aware of the problem and recognize its negative impacts on their lives. They can then take steps to seek out alternative sources of information that promote a more balanced and nuanced view of reality. By counterbalancing fear with informed reasoning and critical thinking, individuals can enhance their self-efficacy and personal growth. They can also focus on self-care practices that promote mental, physical, and spiritual well-being, such as meditation, exercise, and time in nature.</span></b></p><p><b><br /></b></p><p><b>In conclusion, the psychological and social implications of monetized fear are significant and far-reaching. Fear-based marketing and media practices can negatively impact personal growth, self-efficacy, and spirituality. However, by recognizing the impacts of fear and taking steps to counterbalance it, individuals can begin to move beyond fear-based conditioning and achieve their true goals and aspirations.</b></p><p><br /></p><p><i><u><span style="color: #ff00fe;"><a href="https://soundcloud.com/real-double-dose-channel/monetized-fear">CLICK HERE TO LISTEN TO OUR #MONETIZED-FEAR LATEST EPISODE!</a></span></u></i></p>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3441945615158117630.post-32758170459583632692022-12-28T18:25:00.000-08:002022-12-28T18:25:17.861-08:00#3 Keys to Decision Execution!<p> </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgr2XnLpmcLUJZMJIs2LfTwMG3J_9CJXN3sjrd0VYbvbskroZ6-hemb8kjiglXAzNk1f1gypkJVnmPRRK21hT9lp7d94YWRECWXg7c6P_6u7Y8-e01mAWjmwAEuevNZLFoBDeJJfn46o60urGaptSdTQLFwnmQGj5fsOHvJ-LzcIN6q8dIC1boHPIVc/s940/3.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="788" data-original-width="940" height="420" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgr2XnLpmcLUJZMJIs2LfTwMG3J_9CJXN3sjrd0VYbvbskroZ6-hemb8kjiglXAzNk1f1gypkJVnmPRRK21hT9lp7d94YWRECWXg7c6P_6u7Y8-e01mAWjmwAEuevNZLFoBDeJJfn46o60urGaptSdTQLFwnmQGj5fsOHvJ-LzcIN6q8dIC1boHPIVc/w502-h420/3.png" width="502" /></a></div><br /><p></p>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3441945615158117630.post-9702136941889196092022-11-30T05:17:00.005-08:002022-11-30T05:17:54.025-08:00#Become Who You Truly Are, & Accept the #Permission<b><iframe frameborder="0" height="270" src="https://youtube.com/embed/EiGtvRUu8FY" width="480"></iframe>.

Here
are some tips to get you started. </p><p> Celebrate someone you love by declaring a random day “their day.” Let
them choose whatever they’d like to do and spend the day enjoying each
other. </p><p> Announce a screen-free day. That day, instead of being distracted by
checking email or playing a game on your phone, focus on one another by
spending the day talking and laughing together sans checking your phone. </p><p> Check in with friends who have lost their parents on Mother’s or Father’s
Day. If possible, ask them to join you in your celebration, so they aren’t
sitting at home thinking of what they’ve lost. </p><p> When you head out to get your groceries, ask a friend who’s been busy,
sick, or stressed if there’s anything you can pick up for them. Even if they
have everything they need, the offer will let them know they are loved. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgnw79FqsohRvOkDrv6CTAHDKwXJsev6nbwCNs9zY1rUvztw-eE-KwxWsa4Klyr6SnNbVmZWMihgOh6qocM0kxaG2W2voIJdW68RXSLOKd2k25zdi8G6Z972oJwRBmNM8M4jD6KwXbk4a2W9KEwbmF0jHxAi-tJZKS31DqiOOXF4uJBkU7Un11ZV9EX/s509/istockphoto-1345534466-170667a.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="339" data-original-width="509" height="254" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgnw79FqsohRvOkDrv6CTAHDKwXJsev6nbwCNs9zY1rUvztw-eE-KwxWsa4Klyr6SnNbVmZWMihgOh6qocM0kxaG2W2voIJdW68RXSLOKd2k25zdi8G6Z972oJwRBmNM8M4jD6KwXbk4a2W9KEwbmF0jHxAi-tJZKS31DqiOOXF4uJBkU7Un11ZV9EX/w382-h254/istockphoto-1345534466-170667a.jpg" width="382" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p><p> During bad weather, contact elderly friends and neighbors to see if they
need anything. They may not reach out for help but need staples or just
company. </p><p> Send a card to a friend or relative who you’ve been thinking of. Inside,
relate your favorite memory of the two of you together. </p><p> Give a compliment. We often think a loved one looks nice, made a smart
decision, or has improved their life in some way. But how often do we
mention it? </p><p> Tell someone about a complimentary comment you overheard someone
else say about them. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgaF2tJnaCRCi6KSVZXPYJHPpmV_VN6RkZcew6exBvaQoIxHoKyazbqxl1jRT0Cduk8HpGiQ4_AQwCLPZk6NXYxOLBJNdaxVOjycWAaLFq6TpTBU-wcPEiV2Qqh7YMpy_Sa3tfDoyUe3dID9gdZlEvWvyzf8goLTodseA0zQLva35pBeC_FSv1XO6So/s519/istockphoto-927775738-170667a.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="332" data-original-width="519" height="281" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgaF2tJnaCRCi6KSVZXPYJHPpmV_VN6RkZcew6exBvaQoIxHoKyazbqxl1jRT0Cduk8HpGiQ4_AQwCLPZk6NXYxOLBJNdaxVOjycWAaLFq6TpTBU-wcPEiV2Qqh7YMpy_Sa3tfDoyUe3dID9gdZlEvWvyzf8goLTodseA0zQLva35pBeC_FSv1XO6So/w439-h281/istockphoto-927775738-170667a.jpg" width="439" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p><p> When a loved one shares a goal or dream of theirs, encourage them to go
for it. Tell them how amazing you think they’d be at that new career. Tell
them you know they’ll be able to run that marathon. Too often we let our
fear of failure diminish what we or someone else wants to do. </p><p> Learn the name of the “little people” in your office. Cleaners, parking
attendants, and mailroom clerks often go unnoticed. But where would we
be without them? When you see them, say hello and call them by name.
This will not only make them feel appreciated but will improve the
emotional culture in your office as they pass on the acknowledgment they
received. </p><p> Give a loved one or a staff member the benefit of the doubt. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj3rvn9IVRk_sl9a4eK9JuOt7HBDMR3yNtyolExWvHNhYLFcZ8VVIk_eqi2ABBx9xj7FohSX-x3oaXC4poiEFqSRZhs-qGdrC_ajghhp2qOTLzzbcqxb9Ysso1WwiAmEwO5aioAQ2kH2H-kmpE7PFEsASQuIgsKXAYDxnJtvloAyC1X2h7uMTBttb-O/s509/istockphoto-1297159365-170667a.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="339" data-original-width="509" height="263" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj3rvn9IVRk_sl9a4eK9JuOt7HBDMR3yNtyolExWvHNhYLFcZ8VVIk_eqi2ABBx9xj7FohSX-x3oaXC4poiEFqSRZhs-qGdrC_ajghhp2qOTLzzbcqxb9Ysso1WwiAmEwO5aioAQ2kH2H-kmpE7PFEsASQuIgsKXAYDxnJtvloAyC1X2h7uMTBttb-O/w395-h263/istockphoto-1297159365-170667a.jpg" width="395" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p><p> Do something special for a friend or relative who has dealt with a loss…a

When you stop to look for
the good in the situation, you're always guaranteed to find it, even though it may
be challenging. The very act of looking ‘on the bright side tends to enhance our
dispositions and lead us to feel more positive ourselves. It's like laughing or
smiling. If you try to do either without feeling it, in a short time, you'll find you're
able to laugh or smile without any effort at all. That smile or soft chuckle has
become genuine, just by the action of creating it.

When putting positive alacrity into action, you’ll start to see a difference in how

looking so hard, and instead, focus on the relationships surrounding them. </p><p style="text-align: left;"> A Harvard study conducted over 75 years has discovered that the most critical
contributor to finding fulfillment is in having deep, meaningful relationships.
Things like healthy interactions with those who are family or intimate friends are
vital. In a nutshell, close, loving relationships make us happy, healthy and fulfilled. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjw2i5gYTvSGxffjOKrWsWjOVl2XsXwy7WAjl_Rtac9XA4RVEbLp01aIxbwP5zw9x1-KfA9ndhYNNMSVwqRu48ygrzurSSD7DjHu9k1aAJNBrqXlU7_Pw54reJNdsl04omSiC2LaCR5GcvEFTUzPkQ6b1UFLneqNQDgrS2frSOvQnucp18xklUSRfcm/s612/istockphoto-1384630499-612x612.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="308" data-original-width="612" height="161" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjw2i5gYTvSGxffjOKrWsWjOVl2XsXwy7WAjl_Rtac9XA4RVEbLp01aIxbwP5zw9x1-KfA9ndhYNNMSVwqRu48ygrzurSSD7DjHu9k1aAJNBrqXlU7_Pw54reJNdsl04omSiC2LaCR5GcvEFTUzPkQ6b1UFLneqNQDgrS2frSOvQnucp18xklUSRfcm/s320/istockphoto-1384630499-612x612.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><p></p><p style="text-align: left;">How do you go about creating those relationships, and thereby gain fulfillment

relationships fail. They include: </p><p style="text-align: left;"> 1. Unmet expectations </p><p style="text-align: left;">2. Lack of Communication </p><p style="text-align: left;">3. Lack of Commitment</p><p style="text-align: left;"> 4. Emotional distance</p><p style="text-align: left;"> Perhaps all these issues are at least partially due to our hectic modern world. We
assume relationships will still be viable when we get around to interacting with
the other person. There's always something urgent to do. Work and family
obligations leave little time for relaxation, let alone maintaining healthy
relationships. </p><p style="text-align: left;"> We can’t just blame the problem on our work taking over our personal lives
though. Work relationships take up just as much time and effort as personal ones.
Often, especially when attempting to grow a business, we tend to ignore the
current loyal customers because we’re too busy trying to attract new ones. Or
we’re not cultivating the relationships we need through networking, which keeps
us from moving on to the next level of our career path. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0TLQcoR6fQ7l5HdfO_-PkU6v0-RHyrh5YQjBnEppKRafgbU9srFpwkwTOLBB4t9ze-GCaH-yhRbmUegOowy-64pCewJQpTAi_LycAFihUIjq2HiQX4bfiClT_cYNblvW9EVJCIp0ERBAHnUR7Mz-4j8LwaG5mXf5OsTo0w0mC_oVLfQgzj_zDK6ic/s612/istockphoto-1130373718-612x612.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="344" data-original-width="612" height="256" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0TLQcoR6fQ7l5HdfO_-PkU6v0-RHyrh5YQjBnEppKRafgbU9srFpwkwTOLBB4t9ze-GCaH-yhRbmUegOowy-64pCewJQpTAi_LycAFihUIjq2HiQX4bfiClT_cYNblvW9EVJCIp0ERBAHnUR7Mz-4j8LwaG5mXf5OsTo0w0mC_oVLfQgzj_zDK6ic/w455-h256/istockphoto-1130373718-612x612.jpg" width="455" /></a></div><br /><p style="text-align: left;">Business or personal, relationships take work and effort, and they need to be

how to handle this new relationship and what to discuss. Don’t fret – here’s how to get
started with your accountability relationship. </p><p><b> Decide How & When You’ll Mee</b>t </p><p>You need to be having regular meetings with your accountability partner. These
sessions might be in person at a local coffee shop or if you’re virtual accountability
partners, then these meetings might be held on Skype or Google Hangouts. It doesn’t
matter if you use technology to meet up or not, you need to have a regular meeting
place. </p><p> How often you meet should come down to what works for you. It can be helpful to start
meeting two to four times a month. This allows you both time to report on progress or
setbacks as you encounter them.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjls3UOD7Fae0gvuF2tXFJmRf0ojXwRVv5zxX9BYVrReMwK_d5a-mIiwqQWt_AMN4-tbMQpEW6OJ-jEZPMyo31cndN4C8ulOeIPpXlxY9PvxSzSQWq73gm6yJrnhsNTdB1IejWkQjhmqvqAsr0Hoh-0rcqlfm0J8oxmfP-e9mO22FNEBG7Nin5OhXg1/s612/istockphoto-1316843812-612x612.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="408" data-original-width="612" height="259" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjls3UOD7Fae0gvuF2tXFJmRf0ojXwRVv5zxX9BYVrReMwK_d5a-mIiwqQWt_AMN4-tbMQpEW6OJ-jEZPMyo31cndN4C8ulOeIPpXlxY9PvxSzSQWq73gm6yJrnhsNTdB1IejWkQjhmqvqAsr0Hoh-0rcqlfm0J8oxmfP-e9mO22FNEBG7Nin5OhXg1/w389-h259/istockphoto-1316843812-612x612.jpg" width="389" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p><p> But keep in mind that it’s OK to change your meeting place or time, depending on
what’s going on in your life or your accountability partner’s life. For example, if you
become accountability partners with another solopreneur during the summer months,
then you may find that you need to adjust your meetings during the school year so that
you can spend more time with your kids. </p><p> This is a normal part of a partnership. So don’t be afraid to periodically review your
schedules to see if another time slot would work better for both you and your
accountability partner. </p><p><b> Talk About Your Goals </b></p><p>During your first session, you’ll want to talk about your values and goals with your
partner. You’ll probably have a mix of short-term and long-term goals for your business
or your life. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgfX92WLQAW9-s5uJMi70JeWlZ7sqqn46hKlK9wIm62uz9kP2jvKQlZc2yr2tLBjscWq0HUCrhJ1kuMyNeufmsqCUheHqA-oOJiU9saxlqh2Fr5jv8JFv1oCYEtza1a_IGOPX0UkC4zMHy5ymbXSjWIBYMDeZtQl3dEqClj5o8qobQoYmUtbXqQrEte/s416/istockphoto-499155570-170667a.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="416" data-original-width="416" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgfX92WLQAW9-s5uJMi70JeWlZ7sqqn46hKlK9wIm62uz9kP2jvKQlZc2yr2tLBjscWq0HUCrhJ1kuMyNeufmsqCUheHqA-oOJiU9saxlqh2Fr5jv8JFv1oCYEtza1a_IGOPX0UkC4zMHy5ymbXSjWIBYMDeZtQl3dEqClj5o8qobQoYmUtbXqQrEte/s320/istockphoto-499155570-170667a.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p><p> Your accountability partner can help you break down your long-term goals into easy,
manageable steps. For example, if your long-term goal is to publish a Kindle book on
your niche, then your short-term action steps would be items like ‘outline my Kindle
book’ or ‘contact a designer to create my book cover’. </p><p><b> Follow Up with Your Partner </b></p><p>In follow-up meetings, you’ll want to talk about what steps you took since your last
session together. Did you complete all your action steps? Did you forget something or
run into a problem that prevented you from completing one of your action steps? Can
your accountability partner come up with ways to try to overcome this roadblock? </p><p>Don’t just talk about the hard stuff either. Be sure to celebrate when either one of you
meets a milestone or accomplishes a goal. Celebrating accomplishments can be simple
—like going out for dessert together or if you’re virtual accountability partners, send your
friend a small Starbucks card. By celebrating your success together, you make it more
likely that you’ll achieve even bigger goals. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjJej_qmu910cFO-G3NVTktsCT31c7fwH9Pofy4t1xiurB5x5hkP21Lw6fxKUHhmOpqQ_HMIYuddkS8534a2Lr01cNnnCdlZv7Rtjt1QYIeNvs3-TQ6C671o-FBB2RDpRiJjVXy0NG5r50ez7LzP1RU_GysCqOWClzDajIsuxNilLFBW7iCJzNLI4Sf/s612/istockphoto-1221500645-612x612.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="408" data-original-width="612" height="242" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjJej_qmu910cFO-G3NVTktsCT31c7fwH9Pofy4t1xiurB5x5hkP21Lw6fxKUHhmOpqQ_HMIYuddkS8534a2Lr01cNnnCdlZv7Rtjt1QYIeNvs3-TQ6C671o-FBB2RDpRiJjVXy0NG5r50ez7LzP1RU_GysCqOWClzDajIsuxNilLFBW7iCJzNLI4Sf/w364-h242/istockphoto-1221500645-612x612.jpg" width="364" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p><p>Be patient with yourself and your new accountability partner as you learn how to

toward your goals. It’s easy to set a goal and make no progress when no one is looking
over your shoulder. But when you have an accountability partner slacking off is much
harder. This is because we usually work harder to honor commitments we made to
other people than we do the commitments we make to ourselves. </p><p>Think of Weight Watchers. It’s a weight loss program with accountability built right in.
From the weigh-ins to the weekly meetings, members are accountable to each other.
The meetings are filled with people that support each other with the goal to better their
health and fitness. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgJcVngpyy6arfJfhQi_16H_niSIMw9ckmuWiFGoBWH8qEHxK8Chwn6slhK0zJ_l__l7-ButTVexXWyy5jnLWyAGcGkSDLtpUVlbFPfLSrR9QBVvg9kVjIU3e36deHniQszWjzvQ6jfQVZmnvMlYKGkyslJFbbxp-f4YuiK7z_BtvieITOdMA4djnrz/s612/istockphoto-1220867697-612x612.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="408" data-original-width="612" height="284" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgJcVngpyy6arfJfhQi_16H_niSIMw9ckmuWiFGoBWH8qEHxK8Chwn6slhK0zJ_l__l7-ButTVexXWyy5jnLWyAGcGkSDLtpUVlbFPfLSrR9QBVvg9kVjIU3e36deHniQszWjzvQ6jfQVZmnvMlYKGkyslJFbbxp-f4YuiK7z_BtvieITOdMA4djnrz/w427-h284/istockphoto-1220867697-612x612.jpg" width="427" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p><p><b> An Accountability Partner Will Help You Shape Your Goals </b></p><p>An accountability partner can help you shape your goals so you set ones that are
achievable. For example, you could set goals to go back to school for your degree, start
a side business, and spend more time with loved ones. An accountability partner would
gently point out that those are good goals but will be difficult to achieve at the same
time. </p><p><b>An Accountability Partner Will Help You Breakdown Your Goals </b></p><p>It’s good to set ambitious goals, ones that force you out of your comfort zone and make

an accountability partner comes in. A smart partner can help you focus on taking one

Without personal spirituality, you lose purpose, drive, and meaning in your life. You cannot become your best version of yourself, nor are you able to fully tap into your gifts without it. In the end, without the spiritual, you lose your desire to give back to the world, to make it a better place. With so much at stake, is it any wonder that finding your spiritual path is so crucial in living a complete life?</p><p><br /></p><p>Thankfully it's not hard to find.

you’d like to continue it. </p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgOOJkm2QqWEBOPfFjaLh769fACS6LItWwNjzlsta1gPicF8tGTrs84wEUxzVauh2JJ0KmsPHGfawGwZ82eW4oHdet5LUz6KWKJfnd0hbScv2WsJ1odfQ3TbeWK5K_dIyNZZUOuNvqzuALuvxosBizho2bsNju5KEDbY1hU2tRSHRFWOSotANj6cJCL/s612/istockphoto-522293229-612x612.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="612" data-original-width="408" height="362" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgOOJkm2QqWEBOPfFjaLh769fACS6LItWwNjzlsta1gPicF8tGTrs84wEUxzVauh2JJ0KmsPHGfawGwZ82eW4oHdet5LUz6KWKJfnd0hbScv2WsJ1odfQ3TbeWK5K_dIyNZZUOuNvqzuALuvxosBizho2bsNju5KEDbY1hU2tRSHRFWOSotANj6cJCL/w241-h362/istockphoto-522293229-612x612.jpg" width="241" /></a></div><p></p><p>For the first meeting, you’ll want to plan for an hour or so. This gives you and your
partner time to talk about your core values, your goals, and your business principles. It
can be exciting to get to know your accountability partner so take your time and don’t
rush your first session together. </p><p><b><i>Consider Paid Options </i></b></p><p>Sometimes, you need more help than one or two partners can offer. In that case, you
may want to consider paying to join an accountability group or business mastermind.
These groups give you a chance to meet regularly online and talk with other
solopreneurs and small business owners. If this kind of support still isn’t enough,
consider hiring a business coach to guide you through this season of your business. </p><br /><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjI5dTNFOxSmMGBWFnF9U5-pmOSImCU7wY6uGvkihEyVB7jXOKy6jdgI1-oPeNkqyXujtd_eBfNgThV3YKeoSMn4Ummk9scVeSzRyhl30rKumJhrc33gSv-pHxcdbZALBwFT4P2DrhqXSKOse0v4Kzz9Ejt32-yaL2jD464zM-60HEKk0NDxdcNFIiH/s612/istockphoto-1404133695-612x612.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="612" data-original-width="612" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjI5dTNFOxSmMGBWFnF9U5-pmOSImCU7wY6uGvkihEyVB7jXOKy6jdgI1-oPeNkqyXujtd_eBfNgThV3YKeoSMn4Ummk9scVeSzRyhl30rKumJhrc33gSv-pHxcdbZALBwFT4P2DrhqXSKOse0v4Kzz9Ejt32-yaL2jD464zM-60HEKk0NDxdcNFIiH/s320/istockphoto-1404133695-612x612.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><p></p><p> It can take some time to find an accountability partner that you connect.

list of people you already know that might be a good match. You can start by thinking of
solopreneurs or small business owners that offer similar services to a different
audience. </p><p> You should also think about any networking groups that you participate in. Is there
anyone there that you connected with and feel might be a good business match? </p><p>Of course, you don’t have to limit your search to offline networking groups. You can also
look for a virtual accountability partner if you like. Make a post on Facebook or LinkedIn
groups about your search. Let people you meet know you are looking for one, and what
your needs are. You may get a response from someone that would love to work with
you. </p><p><b><i>Look for Matching Values </i></b></p><p><b></b></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><b><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhfo-g7VU5EBB5UHd2Vd4mZqMNTEaXeBz7gmgqX1jBu2OBpEKA_Ihqm_visTdRAB5K_rBC9Dam4-AjXhukgUKkdzu4CpGVlHJSmZE9jgOMPvspn1MO5qG-7w6lCd4LyGN50G2JLGUvdJtFc6DY2KsdmtzXNhJenGG6ZsUTi2rZOIoOBa6i4yXnM0lBY/s612/istockphoto-683258476-612x612.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="408" data-original-width="612" height="270" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhfo-g7VU5EBB5UHd2Vd4mZqMNTEaXeBz7gmgqX1jBu2OBpEKA_Ihqm_visTdRAB5K_rBC9Dam4-AjXhukgUKkdzu4CpGVlHJSmZE9jgOMPvspn1MO5qG-7w6lCd4LyGN50G2JLGUvdJtFc6DY2KsdmtzXNhJenGG6ZsUTi2rZOIoOBa6i4yXnM0lBY/w406-h270/istockphoto-683258476-612x612.jpg" width="406" /></a></b></div><b><br /><i><br /></i></b><p></p><p>Carefully consider your potential accountability partner. You want someone in your
corner who shares your values. If you have conflicting values, neither of you will get the
most from your accountability sessions. For example, if you value serving customers
above all else, but your partner values making a buck, even at the expense of her
customers then you aren’t going to enjoy your partnership very much. You can’t be
supportive of each other because your values are not in alignment. </p><p>Before you agree to jump into an accountability partnership with someone, take time to
do your research. Look at their blog, website, and social media posts. Are they always
complaining about their customers? Do they share negative news constantly? Do you

This is a normal and healthy part of your growth and development and involves a journey that will guide you in the course of your life, leading toward a sense of peace and contentment you will find in no other way.</p><p><br /></p><p>As you explore what this means for you, you're going to find spiritual practices will naturally form as part of this process. This might involve anything, starting from mindful practices such as prayer and meditation all the way down to more subtle expressions in how you treat other people, or in how you take care of yourself.</p><p><br /></p><p>Before you start thinking about how much this sounds like work, stop for a moment and consider these benefits of developing a spiritual practice:</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhkGnpw1oyTD1byZyd_wV62-VU0VFxLzfvknbA4JRbI8VhUCt_kMCUNOdjlzohede_ppobF50f-fbDOJlw2vhTLcKkpBij6s26tjd4CqiVWdb1gxaEws94sjJCYSgsSUcCkiTf2mRFMEZF8yqOOPCS-CXD7scNa1M43jr3FhIDEV7IzcPK3R_8L5a3n/s612/istockphoto-1039533792-612x612.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="408" data-original-width="612" height="247" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhkGnpw1oyTD1byZyd_wV62-VU0VFxLzfvknbA4JRbI8VhUCt_kMCUNOdjlzohede_ppobF50f-fbDOJlw2vhTLcKkpBij6s26tjd4CqiVWdb1gxaEws94sjJCYSgsSUcCkiTf2mRFMEZF8yqOOPCS-CXD7scNa1M43jr3FhIDEV7IzcPK3R_8L5a3n/w371-h247/istockphoto-1039533792-612x612.jpg" width="371" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p><p><b><i>You Experience Clarity</i></b></p><p>When you put time into a spiritual practice, you're taking time to put things into perspective.

Your spiritual practice holds you in the here and now and invites focus in this instant without long dwelling on the past or worrying about the future. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiUK_aLtFXEDL4faYDIopM-OgXOIepoLap5aAN5uaQiHdYD3A-GxkzaErlue7_2clGZvwDNUJNBAAzQsAv4MVGtaQ3ZZthsfDHgQ7W8galO_NP5JpZqBrTcR0gc79FhmlfDC6Zi4itI8EqWJ9z2opedzVPhLy4-RS5_GvyL6NHoQnK3EE-aVyRRaWuY/s612/istockphoto-1257050404-612x612.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="306" data-original-width="612" height="214" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiUK_aLtFXEDL4faYDIopM-OgXOIepoLap5aAN5uaQiHdYD3A-GxkzaErlue7_2clGZvwDNUJNBAAzQsAv4MVGtaQ3ZZthsfDHgQ7W8galO_NP5JpZqBrTcR0gc79FhmlfDC6Zi4itI8EqWJ9z2opedzVPhLy4-RS5_GvyL6NHoQnK3EE-aVyRRaWuY/w428-h214/istockphoto-1257050404-612x612.jpg" width="428" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p><p><b><i>You're Better Prepared for Difficulty</i></b></p><p>When you practice your spirituality regularly, you're better grounded in your beliefs and have a keener understanding of why things happen in your life. These are key to surviving disasters. When you're in a situation where the world around you is spiraling out of control, having something you can turn to instantly means you're not spiraling out of control along with the circumstances. You're better able to step back and see what there is to learn from the experience, or even to ascribe more profound meaning to what's going on. </p><p><br /></p><p><b><i>Your Journey Becomes Deeper</i></b></p><p>The spiritual practice invites you to examine yourself. You start to see the big picture of your life. At the same time, you're discovering things about yourself you never knew and learning to focus on the small details. Together this leads to a real understanding of who you are, where you want to go, and your journey in getting there. </p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEikZx-gPXZqo1q_GZEChHxxaR2mILFN69BJQUeZ18d-cqPwg5FH-rQMzlgH_Qt4p9ynscwPnXFdKlwq6NqiRR-uAIZ75qRbSLSFIhqodlzcQg3vrgH6SR3J4yS3ISabbpwotSFjw5R1JfjZGXiyyEUMDPK87gfPDbIHrsKulhrJR4LddOwJxIp4s92N/s612/istockphoto-1171968887-612x612.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="409" data-original-width="612" height="267" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEikZx-gPXZqo1q_GZEChHxxaR2mILFN69BJQUeZ18d-cqPwg5FH-rQMzlgH_Qt4p9ynscwPnXFdKlwq6NqiRR-uAIZ75qRbSLSFIhqodlzcQg3vrgH6SR3J4yS3ISabbpwotSFjw5R1JfjZGXiyyEUMDPK87gfPDbIHrsKulhrJR4LddOwJxIp4s92N/w399-h267/istockphoto-1171968887-612x612.jpg" width="399" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p><p><br /></p>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3441945615158117630.post-69675502668914897692022-08-22T11:50:00.002-07:002022-08-22T11:50:38.905-07:00 7 Ways to Develop Your Personal Spirituality<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #45818e; font-size: large;"> 7 Ways to Develop Your Personal Spirituality</span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixiOrhybUVzlz9hV7NQ_9vp185XTtpDe0fmFeJvF9Po5txvGijnbLA7ctvdFU2j8LIMBFQpwM6IV8eL4c67fUGzpZrGrtXV2kN574fRUfp0KmB3eJijAL3kdvb_8FElnVcizf6SRiGFSLEqVHO-_5dMrqxS-5YbJ-6h5Otrxo26_a8x1Y4STxODBbO/s493/meditation-1384758__340.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="340" data-original-width="493" height="272" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixiOrhybUVzlz9hV7NQ_9vp185XTtpDe0fmFeJvF9Po5txvGijnbLA7ctvdFU2j8LIMBFQpwM6IV8eL4c67fUGzpZrGrtXV2kN574fRUfp0KmB3eJijAL3kdvb_8FElnVcizf6SRiGFSLEqVHO-_5dMrqxS-5YbJ-6h5Otrxo26_a8x1Y4STxODBbO/w394-h272/meditation-1384758__340.jpg" width="394" /></a></div><br /><p style="text-align: center;"><br /></p><p>There is nothing more beautiful than having found your spiritual path.

You can start right where you are with these simple tips:</p><p><br /></p><p><b><i>Begin Slowly</i></b></p><p>As with any change, trying to do too much, too fast leads to burnout and the feeling of failure. In practicing spirituality, start with small changes, and add to those as you feel more capable and confident.</p><p><br /></p><p><b><i>Try a Spiritual Retreat</i></b></p><p>Time off to explore what your spirituality means to you, whether guided or not, is always a good idea.

that you will achieve your goals. But an accountability partner is not a magic bullet. It
won’t solve all your problems or make accomplishing your goal painless. </p><p> If you understand that, then you should know that having an accountability partner can
make the journey toward your goals enjoyable and fun. Here are signs that you’re ready
for an accountability partner: </p><p><b><i>You’re Willing to Motivate Yourself</i></b> </p><p>If you don’t know how to motivate yourself already, then it won’t matter how many
partners you have – you’ll still struggle. The best way to learn how to motivate yourself
is to study projects and tasks you’ve completed previously. For example, when you
created your first product, was it the pressure of a deadline that kept you going?
The daily rewards you created for yourself after you finished each task? Study what
you’ve done previously. This will give you plenty of ideas on what motivates you. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiEsRtnVW0ixcCtPmtQaeGu_256NJNvzeyRdUz22roqB2p5lea2smIV028JmIY2IBJoMoEIyNIAg5OvuDs5M1CdMkhL8exvZh4iFLuUYVk34rwsj4vZUEmqW_Xi7UDVloYTUHvIG_vCMpKphu5d0H2mBtNXY6OU-ZJ4r-9L7iWN9IcfdOyRUbYMPVzN/s612/istockphoto-1316444064-612x612.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="612" data-original-width="612" height="342" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiEsRtnVW0ixcCtPmtQaeGu_256NJNvzeyRdUz22roqB2p5lea2smIV028JmIY2IBJoMoEIyNIAg5OvuDs5M1CdMkhL8exvZh4iFLuUYVk34rwsj4vZUEmqW_Xi7UDVloYTUHvIG_vCMpKphu5d0H2mBtNXY6OU-ZJ4r-9L7iWN9IcfdOyRUbYMPVzN/w342-h342/istockphoto-1316444064-612x612.jpg" width="342" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p><p><b><i>You’re Willing to Take Responsibility </i></b></p><p>You’re not ready for an accountability partner until you can take responsibility for both
your successes and your failures. It’s easy to dismiss your failures as being someone
else’s fault or saying that “life just got in the way”. But this kind of approach means that
you lack the discipline necessary to achieve your goals. </p><p> Remember it’s not an accountability partner’s job to change your life. It’s their
responsibility to keep you on task and hold you accountable. </p><p><b><i>You’re Willing to Be Transparent </i></b></p><p>Are you willing to share your bad habits, your deepest dreams, and your biggest fears
with someone else? Your accountability partner can’t help you unless you’re willing to

It
can leave you feeling uncomfortable and challenged. But that’s a good thing! If you’re
too afraid to share what you’re working on or won’t talk about your goals, then don’t look
for an accountability partner. An important element of having an accountability
partner is being humble enough to accept feedback. Even if you don’t always agree
with what your partner says.</p><p> An accountability partner can be a beneficial relationship for both you and the other
person. But it’s important to remember that you’re making a big commitment when you
agree to take on a partnership. That’s why you need to be willing and ready to help
each other succeed.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3Jc8QQOQL3dpWN-PLk3ADX6_u-bVp1PRhePST5M8A5OOGGfmX4Ey_LJjtUvZwPQ4k5itcgVatKZKIJ9B8WrsQNZFaEcuyHwfmddEAtfCz4uVU3Hy-FNA_wzwklkYAeHCD56t6xOveYM5ue7jRfcXVLDoX8gUlIPHQCbtJAcp7IdCu24KvU5-wxGLh/s340/flower.webp" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="340" data-original-width="255" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3Jc8QQOQL3dpWN-PLk3ADX6_u-bVp1PRhePST5M8A5OOGGfmX4Ey_LJjtUvZwPQ4k5itcgVatKZKIJ9B8WrsQNZFaEcuyHwfmddEAtfCz4uVU3Hy-FNA_wzwklkYAeHCD56t6xOveYM5ue7jRfcXVLDoX8gUlIPHQCbtJAcp7IdCu24KvU5-wxGLh/s320/flower.webp" width="240" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3441945615158117630.post-85501469285272628432022-08-17T06:30:00.001-07:002022-08-17T06:30:00.271-07:00 Accountability Partners… Helping Each Other<p style="text-align: center;"><b><i><span style="color: #45818e; font-size: large;"> Accountability Partners… Helping Each Other</span></i></b></p><p style="text-align: center;"><b><br /></b></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgdWzf-5hk_Cz-QV5Y2OiAS8bS5PI6GKqiwVqj0nrDGqE5dkE3C0KhHg2jMXIQFDFv8kUBcVJfLmt_2UcXEB7AVQ2gW7_olXRjW2ZtOXKzZSFZockSH0HKXE6WaP9mobSKh9e0CIKu6tgS2XSI9teZ6NLsu-SjCaRKhilQqBamGV5qhs17ipr-RiLgL/s391/hands-5655424__340.webp" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="340" data-original-width="391" height="336" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgdWzf-5hk_Cz-QV5Y2OiAS8bS5PI6GKqiwVqj0nrDGqE5dkE3C0KhHg2jMXIQFDFv8kUBcVJfLmt_2UcXEB7AVQ2gW7_olXRjW2ZtOXKzZSFZockSH0HKXE6WaP9mobSKh9e0CIKu6tgS2XSI9teZ6NLsu-SjCaRKhilQqBamGV5qhs17ipr-RiLgL/w387-h336/hands-5655424__340.webp" width="387" /></a></div><br /><b><br /></b><p></p><p><b>An Accountability Partner Can Help You Create a Joint Venture</b> </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhtwnTP0hC0NZLh8Hf7DgwaHe26Oost3qxGAYqAA05nselmIkSlDE26dC5sqloKDuOLCB47PCsicCpmIc0dQ-ACyvVofMA2DI_ONCnjX3u7VtKmwppaeWTXuBAAC_TRLmsrmP6I0gE4L3RrDOYXVS75SAcXkj-5yBbwsGC88ymcLFThbuN2n6lzKdej/s510/jogger-7344979__340.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="340" data-original-width="510" height="286" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhtwnTP0hC0NZLh8Hf7DgwaHe26Oost3qxGAYqAA05nselmIkSlDE26dC5sqloKDuOLCB47PCsicCpmIc0dQ-ACyvVofMA2DI_ONCnjX3u7VtKmwppaeWTXuBAAC_TRLmsrmP6I0gE4L3RrDOYXVS75SAcXkj-5yBbwsGC88ymcLFThbuN2n6lzKdej/w430-h286/jogger-7344979__340.jpg" width="430" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p><p>If you have an accountability partner that you’ve clicked with, then it might be time to

services, then you could team up to create a DIY website course. </p><p><b><i> An Accountability Partner Can Promote Your Products</i></b> </p><p>Accountability partners can promote each other’s products as affiliates. This allows you

With an accountability partner in your life, it’s harder to ignore your goals because you
“just don’t feel like getting anything done”. When you have someone you have to report
to weekly, you work harder than usual because you don’t want to let your partner down. </p><p>But keeping track of each other’s goals and celebrating successes isn’t the only thing
that you and your accountability partner can do together. There are many ways that
solopreneurs and small business owners can help each other besides accountability. </p><p><b><i> An Accountability Partner Can Help with Brainstorming </i></b></p><p><b></b></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><b><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgcIV9q28iz3a10rGfDw0SF29uhzhST_wpUFzvCS2gtoAV5rPICkAbkrdD1Zoz28F3LTJ9DrbweDV5WqO91FXb8PE03V7-_FH15OgQH9lOZuaP1Vf5ODYPaiL2eJQVUVb3CuGFaZPmnnf-ZoF8eTx9wGy4jVkd5OilSWiK4jwZXJ83PK5_A9jS9ZwaL/s612/istockphoto-1314604813-612x612.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="612" data-original-width="612" height="393" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgcIV9q28iz3a10rGfDw0SF29uhzhST_wpUFzvCS2gtoAV5rPICkAbkrdD1Zoz28F3LTJ9DrbweDV5WqO91FXb8PE03V7-_FH15OgQH9lOZuaP1Vf5ODYPaiL2eJQVUVb3CuGFaZPmnnf-ZoF8eTx9wGy4jVkd5OilSWiK4jwZXJ83PK5_A9jS9ZwaL/w393-h393/istockphoto-1314604813-612x612.jpg" width="393" /></a></b></div><b><br /><i><br /></i></b><p></p><p>Have you ever had an idea for a great project but you just couldn’t find a name that
captured it perfectly? With an accountability partner, you can try brainstorming to come
up with a title that you love. Of course, your accountability partner can help you
brainstorm many things besides a project name. Together, you can brainstorm domain
ideas, marketing strategies, podcast episodes, and webinar content. </p><p> <b><i>An Accountability Partner Can Test Your Products </i></b></p><p><b></b></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><b><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZtgGInqcpBjV8VeL7sFcN2oRfo5-4OqLMDEwrpA7D_G3wrd_AeCL0WIAQB0LzIvTQIesqLYJu-c-B9Al2hJX9oyuqa6Li7EG25QVq7wuxHIz7fKqyitRetyQNpjN_QRPRVj-rKZsLbQ1kYwgEBxvuwnRkHzrkg4xdtcHQGjbhEB1ch0ZpY6zxV2Cr/s509/istockphoto-890001030-170667a.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="339" data-original-width="509" height="274" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZtgGInqcpBjV8VeL7sFcN2oRfo5-4OqLMDEwrpA7D_G3wrd_AeCL0WIAQB0LzIvTQIesqLYJu-c-B9Al2hJX9oyuqa6Li7EG25QVq7wuxHIz7fKqyitRetyQNpjN_QRPRVj-rKZsLbQ1kYwgEBxvuwnRkHzrkg4xdtcHQGjbhEB1ch0ZpY6zxV2Cr/w412-h274/istockphoto-890001030-170667a.jpg" width="412" /></a></b></div><b><br /><i><br /></i></b><p></p><p>Nothing’s quite as scary as launching a new product and no one understands that fear
like another solopreneur or a small business owner. One of the ways that accountability
partners can help each other is by testing products before they’re officially released. For
example, if you have a website and you set up a shopping cart, you’ll want someone to
test it for you. </p><p> Your accountability partner can help by testing your cart and sharing their honest
feedback. Your partner might tell you that your cart is broken or point out an area where
you’re missing out on additional sales. By testing products for each other, you and your
partner are making your products even better for your customers. </p>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3441945615158117630.post-37557824989539266942022-08-12T05:30:00.015-07:002022-08-12T05:30:00.278-07:00Steps to Embracing Your Loneliness<p style="text-align: center;"> <i style="text-align: center;"><b><span style="color: #45818e; font-size: large;">Steps to Embracing Your

goes back to infancy. Separation means being vulnerable, having no one
to rely on except yourself. This is the loneliness that realizes that in the
end, there is nothing between you and the stars, no one to rescue you.
That sort of existential fear can be scary. What are your deepest fears
about being lonely? Identify them, acknowledge them, and take away
some of their power over you. </p><p></p><p> </p><blockquote style="border: none; margin: 0 0 0 40px; padding: 0px;"><p style="text-align: justify;"><b><i>2.

Give it a try: </p><p>Sit quietly and focus on your breath.</p><p> Breathe in, think ‘May I be happy.’ </p><p>Breathe out, think ‘May I be loved.’ </p><p>Breathe in, think ‘May all my suffering be healed.’ </p><p>Breathe out, think ‘May I be at peace.’ </p><p>Eventually, repeat the mantra, thinking of people who may be lonely at
this time, replacing ‘I’ with ‘you.’
Finish by sending positive thoughts to all beings and repeating ‘May all

and anger. For millions of years, survival relied on being part of a group;
being alone was risky. But now, a fear of loneliness can keep us in toxic
relationships, unfulfilling jobs, and bad marriages. Identify what’s behind
your fear of loneliness, and you can start to work on it. </p><p><br /></p><p> <b><i>2. Learn to Understand your Loneliness</i></b></p><p>
Loneliness comes in many different guises. It can be temporary
situational loneliness where you find yourself without company or help.
Or you can be going through a life crisis that results in more extended
social isolation. A relationship breakdown, losing your job, or being
seriously ill can all make you feel completely cut off from love and
support. </p><p><br /></p><p> <b><i>3.

Artists, philosophers,
and writers over the centuries have sought out solitude to think deeply
and widely and to create their best work. Solitude can be a comfort in an
overcrowded life. When you are by yourself, you can expand into being
your true self.</p>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3441945615158117630.post-23316515501804849172022-08-10T04:49:00.004-07:002022-08-10T04:49:23.572-07:00Types of Loneliness According to Psychologists<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #45818e; font-size: large;"><b><i>Types of Loneliness According to

now, you can take steps to address it. For example, if you’re missing
having an animal in your life, you can adopt a pet or volunteer at the
local animal rescue center. </p><p> Make time in your life for meaningful relationships, not the ones that
don’t feed your soul. Look for people you share values or interests,
and slowly you will make connections that will banish loneliness.</p>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0
