Designing the life you want simply starts with a thought. Our thoughts are the foundation in which we build our life. Our thoughts are our belief systems; it’s how we see the world. It’s our perspective, if you will.
I heard a quote years ago that really intrigued me, and now as a life coach it really resonates with me and it makes perfect sense.
The quote is by David O. McKay, he said this:
“Our thoughts are the architects of our destiny.” Just sit with that for a minute. What do you think about this quote? Does this ring true to you?
I love words, so I decided to dissect the quote. Let’s start with “thoughts.” Thoughts are sentences that run through our mind – they are both positive and negative, they are also beliefs we have about ourselves and others; it’s where perception is created. One of the definitions of “architect” is a person who designs and guides a plan or undertaking and it’s also synonymous with masterminding.  The word “destiny” is defined as: a predetermined course of events often held to be an irresistible power or agency.
This quote lines right up with my coaching philosophy: Our thoughts determine how we feel and how we feel determines our actions and our actions determine our results/destiny. This makes a lot of sense to me. Oftentimes people look at the external things that they can’t control as the culprit for the results they are getting out of life. External circumstances are often out of our control, however, our thoughts are not.
So many people feel like they are floundering because they feel subject to the circumstances of their lives. They blame the circumstances for the results they are getting out of life, instead of seeing they have the power to change things by first changing their thinking.
We get to choose our thoughts. Why allow thoughts that yield unwanted results?! It takes some work to change your thoughts – some of the thoughts you’ve been thinking have been on default for so long but when you can write them down and really look at them and see that they are lies you have been telling yourself, then you will begin to see changes in your life.
Changing your thoughts changes your feelings and your actions and this becomes your destiny.

Be the architect of your life and create what you have always wanted.

xoxo,
Tammy

    Cool website!

    My name’s Eric, and I just found your site – tammyjanemiller.com – while surfing the net. You showed up at the top of the search results, so I checked you out. Looks like what you’re doing is pretty cool.

    But if you don’t mind me asking – after someone like me stumbles across tammyjanemiller.com, what usually happens?

    Is your site generating leads for your business?

    I’m guessing some, but I also bet you’d like more… studies show that 7 out 10 who land on a site wind up leaving without a trace.

    Not good.

    Here’s a thought – what if there was an easy way for every visitor to “raise their hand” to get a phone call from you INSTANTLY… the second they hit your site and said, “call me now.”

    You can –

    Talk With Web Visitor is a software widget that’s works on your site, ready to capture any visitor’s Name, Email address and Phone Number. It lets you know IMMEDIATELY – so that you can talk to that lead while they’re literally looking over your site.

    CLICK HERE http://talkwithcustomer.com to try out a Live Demo with Talk With Web Visitor now to see exactly how it works.

    Time is money when it comes to connecting with leads – the difference between contacting someone within 5 minutes versus 30 minutes later can be huge – like 100 times better!

    That’s why we built out our new SMS Text With Lead feature… because once you’ve captured the visitor’s phone number, you can automatically start a text message (SMS) conversation.

    Think about the possibilities – even if you don’t close a deal then and there, you can follow up with text messages for new offers, content links, even just “how you doing?” notes to build a relationship.

    Wouldn’t that be cool?

    You could be converting up to 100X more leads today!

    Hey there, I just found your site, quick question…

    My name’s Eric, I found tammyjanemiller.com after doing a quick search – you showed up near the top of the rankings, so whatever you’re doing for SEO, looks like it’s working well.

    So here’s my question – what happens AFTER someone lands on your site? Anything?

    Research tells us at least 70% of the people who find your site, after a quick once-over, they disappear… forever.

    That means that all the work and effort you put into getting them to show up, goes down the tubes.

    Why would you want all that good work – and the great site you’ve built – go to waste?

    Because the odds are they’ll just skip over calling or even grabbing their phone, leaving you high and dry.

    But here’s a thought… what if you could make it super-simple for someone to raise their hand, say, “okay, let’s talk” without requiring them to even pull their cell phone from their pocket?

    You can – thanks to revolutionary new software that can literally make that first call happen NOW.

    Talk With Web Visitor is a software widget that sits on your site, ready and waiting to capture any visitor’s Name, Email address and Phone Number. It lets you know IMMEDIATELY – so that you can talk to that lead while they’re still there at your site.

    You know, strike when the iron’s hot!

    When targeting leads, you HAVE to act fast – the difference between contacting someone within 5 minutes versus 30 minutes later is huge – like 100 times better!

    That’s why you should check out our new SMS Text With Lead feature as well… once you’ve captured the phone number of the website visitor, you can automatically kick off a text message (SMS) conversation with them.

    Imagine how powerful this could be – even if they don’t take you up on your offer immediately, you can stay in touch with them using text messages to make new offers, provide links to great content, and build your credibility.

    Just this alone could be a game changer to make your website even more effective.
