Your NEEDS, or motivators are inborn in you, and they are what drives you. What you NEED in your life to feel satisfied, alive, energized and enthused. Even if you don’t know it; you are always seeking fulfillment of these needs. When these needs are not being met you feel unsatisfied, frustrated, depressed. Often it is difficult to even put a finger on what the problem is…you think “I have a good life. Why am I not happy?

According to Dr. Jose Stevens, author of The Michael Handbook, there are 9 basic needs: Security, Expansion, Acceptance, Adventure, Power, Communion, Freedom, Expression and Exchange.

Knowing which of these intrinsic needs motivates you can make an enormous difference in your sense of satisfaction, happiness and even your health. During my program 3 Keys to Discover and Live Your Authentic Purpose!™ we delve deep into these needs and identify not only what they are, but all the ways they have been affecting your life!  Career choices, hobbies, life goals, relationships are all affected.

Relationships are a great example. Choosing partners that fulfill our deepest needs and whose needs we fulfill, will be the most intimate, happy of relationships. This can come about by serendipity – the meeting of soul mates who immediately recognize each other. You’ve read about or know relationships like this that are amazing from the beginning to the end. But all of us can have this!

It starts with knowing what drives you and what drives the person you are with.  Often recognizing the inner differences can open up and allow the love to bloom stronger and more powerfully.

Stepping into who you are and not who others think you should be, is a huge step.

Career, hobby,or  just life in general; discover your needs and dig deep. You too can be like Dineen, one of my clients who shares her experience…

“Laurie, Thanks for your help today! As always, you hit it on the head and things really seemed to come together and make more sense to me.

Woman, you are *amazing.* I don’t know how you do it, but you truly are a transformational expert. You gave me so much clarity. I wanted you to know and to see how much you have helped me.

I AM ready to get out there and do what I love to do! ”

This is the REASON I am exceptionally passionate about what I do.

For those of you who don’t know much about me, I am, Laurie Polinski, the founder of Spinning Gold Life Coaching and the creator of the Clarity, Purpose & Prosperity System. I created the Clarity, Purpose and Prosperity System after I had gone through a deep and meaningful transformation. Not a transformation INTO Being something – but a transformation BACK TO Who I really am.

I unearthed my True Self. I realized that the root of all of the challenges in my life, was the fact that I was living my life based on a very false reality. A reality created out of my trying to be good enough or my trying to please others.

Sound familiar? Are you still in this place? Do you still feel squelched, stressed or depressed?

My trying to fit into a mold of what others would find acceptable was the catalyst to being completely disconnected from the strong, creative, wonderful person I was inside.

In trying to be something else; in trying to chase an image of perfection I was completely unable to maximize my own strengths and qualities. I was unable to ever feel a sense of peace or satisfaction. I was unable to truly be as effective as I could be in any area of my life.

Once I discovered that there really was another part of me, a part that had long been forgotten. A part that felt like home: that felt real, authentic and safe; I was able to change my view of  who I should be. Even more, I changed my vision of what was possible for me.

From this place I recognized my gifts and passions were for helping others to find their hidden depths.  I created the Clarity, Purpose and Prosperity System for you.  To help you get really clear about who you are and what is possible for you.

You will find and know your purpose.  You came here with bigger dreams and capabilities.  You just need a hand discovering where they are buried. They are lying deep inside like seeds. Together we can dig down, clear the: shoulds” and “oughts” away to find your perfection.

When you get to this place: The magic of life – Begins to flow.

I live my life in the magic of truth. I welcome the good things that flow to me.

Are you waiting for others to give you the ok?

To tell you that you did a good job or that you are on the right track?

STOP right there.

Ask yourself what does it matter what others think?

You know deep within yourself the right path to follow. You know this because everything in your heart yearns for it and bursts with joy at the thought of it.  Maybe you are a creative deep inside. Maybe you love accounting and the way numbers fit together. Maybe you love being a stay at home mom, nurturing others. Maybe adventure is in your soul. Whatever it is embrace it!

Other posts have gone over exercises to help you find that one true path.  I’ve shared several of my techniques for understanding yourself, unblocking yourself and for dancing inside.

Now you are ready to take your bows and to be applauded!  Step forward and have garlands of flowers tossed toward you,

Swirl and Dance to Your Own Rhythm

raucous applause and standing ovations. If you are wondering where is the crowd? Stop for a moment: Breathe deep – remind yourself of the joy of your decisions, choose one moment and hold it tight.  Relax into the memory and let yourself sway with the inner dance of joy, light and bliss.

Climb into yourself on stage. You are strong and confident, you are dancing. It may be a soft ballet, or it could be a wild salsa. Your dance is your expression of your choice to be authentic and you are perfect.

Keep dancing but now imagine a second you sitting in the front row.  A You that watches with pride.  Clap wildly, shout out, toss a bouquet or a single rose.

You are your own audience. You are the only one whose opinion really matters.

Appreciate your efforts, what it took to get you to this point. Often my clients have trouble with this.  You like them may still be held back by thoughts of unworthiness, fear or concern about what others are thinking. So many of my clients started there but now full of confidence, self appreciation and are moving forward in lives they now love. Call me if you are having trouble feeling the dance, taking the stage or applauding yourself.

I applaud my own efforts and am thrilled with all that I am!

Wonderful words, but where do you start? Many of my clients start in this place having no idea where their bliss is. Perhaps this describes you…. you have a desire for deeper, more meaningful relationships,… are ready to discover greater opportunities and possibilities…you want to find your bliss… your inner dance.

JoAnn wondered this very thing. “I started working with Laurie when I had reached a crossroads in my life. I was extremely unhappy with where I was in my life, but unsure of how to get myself unstuck and out of the firmly entrenched rut I was in and move myself forward.”

The first step to moving forward and to discovering your inner dance is to look at the patterns in your life. There are continual messages from your childhood; that keep running through your mind. Whispers of I can’t do that, or I am not good enough. They form blocks that stop you from trying, from growing and from finding your bliss.

One technique I use is to take a paper and pen. Write down one of your heart felt desires. Now write down as many blocks to this as you can think of.

I call these Limiting Beliefs and Patterns.  These must be looked at and destroyed in order for you to break free!!         

Next, change to your non-dominant hand. Using that one, write down your desire and what is blocking it. Like most people, you probably found that using your non-dominant hand was difficult. Focusing on the writing instead of the thinking usually yields new results. Did you find new blocks? Ones you hadn’t even realized were lurking inside you?

This is just the first step to unearthing the blockages to your bliss – Your inner dance. But, it can be a powerful one.

Now you are on the way to discovering all the amazing talents that have been hiding inside. Just like a dance center has a dance instructor, it may take someone else to help you to discover these inner gifts.

My gift is unearthing your unique purpose, helping you to rediscover what drives your passions, and to feel the dance deep inside your soul.  This is what I tapped into for JoAnn.

“ Laurie never gave up on me, even when I did and without her belief in me, her encouragement and her knack of knowing just what to say, I wouldn’t be where I am today.”    JoAnn Concialdi is the Founder, Dancing Spirit Healing.

JoAnn has found her inner dance. You are ready to discover yours. It’s all about allowing yourself to dance. Reaching deep, breaking free and discovering your bliss. When you do your soul will be moving freely to its own joyful rhythm and the celebration of you will become a magnet attracting all the things you want in life.  You will be ready to take the stage and to do the dance!

I dance to the rhythm of my own inner bliss

                                                                                                                                                                        ~Agnes DeMille

Have you ever heard the beat of an infectious song? Your toe starts to tap, your hips slightly sway, your head bobs up and down. Try as you might your body knows the rhythm and instinctively tries to move to it. Your body knows.

Do you rock out? Do you go with it and let the dance take you? Probably not. Probably, you like most hold yourself back. And yet as DeMille knew to dance is to release your inner divinity. To allow yourself to fully let go and to step into the rhythm is to become larger, more beautiful, more powerful.

Am I really talking about only the act of dancing? Of course not – it is a metaphor for all the things that we hold back on. The dreams we stuff down, because they are impractical; the vision of our self that we don’t feel strong enough to show to the world. But our bodies know and try to go with the rhythm of those dreams and visions anyway.

When you hold back, you lessen yourself and feel stressed. Your body knows – that tightness in your stomach that tells you that you’re unhappy; the tension headaches or moments reaching for something to eat. You know you aren’t playing full out. But you may not know what else to do?

When clients come to me I have a gift for them – the gift of being able to go deep into their hidden, undiscovered talents and to pull them into the light. I help them take the stage and stand in their own glorious magnificence.

And then…

I unlock the dreams and desires to move them forward. Not just a shuffling tiny step or two. Not just toe tapping and wishing they were out on the dance floor but full out movement. They feel the freedom and joy of being in the dance. Try it… try letting yourself dance to the music.

Put on one of your favorite tunes… turn the music up. Grab a scarf and dance. Don’t worry if you are in step. There is no right or wrong. This is your dance and everything is right!

Raise your hands to the ceiling, drop at the waist and swing to the floor, move those hips, relax into the music and let your body sway to it any way it wants or can. Do you feel the freedom, the power? Now imagine if every moment of everyday was a dance.

Sometimes it just takes someone else to take your hands: to swing them in rhythm, getting you going, to show you a few moves and to help in choreographing your dance of life. Move forward, feel the freedom and the joy of dancing on the path that is right for you!

I dance in my own light and to my own magnificent beat.

Most women don’t.  We simply were never taught how to honor our authentic nature and how to recognize our true path.  We were never applauded for our work. In fact, too often women have been told to be quiet, ladylike, to not stand out from crowd. The stress, anxiety and struggle you feel in your life are not your fault.

The first step in feeling comfortable in the spotlight is feeling comfortable with yourself. You are already perfect; like most women, you just haven’t yet recognized  your true brilliance. For many of my clients it takes a little getting used to.  I add extra encouragement and applause.

In my work as a business and life coach, I’ve discovered my gift is being able to see through the veil to what is deeply embedded I call it your magnificence, and it’s not out of your reach, you just need a guide to get you there.  Here is a first step…

Take a few moments every day to notice where you shine. Give yourself a pat on the back, a great job, or a wow!  At night write down all of the moments you really shined. You might find it comfortable to start small then work your way up as you feel comfortable.

Life’s spotlights are not always obvious.   Every time you smile at a friend – you shine. Every time you finish a project, get the dishes all done, kiss a scraped knee or land a new client – You shine! If you find you start saying yes, but… or it wasn’t really… STOP yourself right there. It really was great!  You are the one on center stage and you are to be applauded. It doesn’t matter how large or how small – you did it.  Take the stage and shine in the spotlight.

I share this affirmation for you to say several times a day.

“I am proud of who I am and I am ready to take the stage!”

Tapping in to that moment of true heartfelt joy – he rediscovered life. He could play –he could fly and he could crow. An out loud burst of wild abandon and sheer joy.

What is your Happy Thought?

What is the one moment (most of us have several) of pure un-abandoned peace or pleasure.

You will know it because the moment you think of it a smile radiates through you. Starting in your heart; vibrating through your body; turning up your lips and sending pleasure synapses firing throughout your brain.  You radiate – others can see the light.  For a moment everything is right and good in the world. You have found your Inner Perfection.

Tap in – tap in to your heart.  Find that moment and nurture it. Bring it out in difficult times and hold it.  Settle into it and make it a part of you. Play with it. Laugh – Laugh out loud, its okay!!  Your heart is your second brain. It tells you when things are right for you. It tells you when to watch out. And it tells you that you are perfect. You just need a reminder now and then. The reminder, the trigger to become awash in love and strength, is your Happy Thought.

As, I often say God doesn’t make no junk.   The place to begin your personal journey is to unearth your unique brilliance, your passions and your soul’s purpose and fully express your nature, your strengths and unique gifts – out loud!

Any time worries or doubts come. Search your heart for your Happy Thought.  Become a Peter Pan and crow!

Your Essential Self is confident, assured and strong in the knowledge that who you are is perfect.

Because of fear.

Fear of the unforeseen consequences of either choice.  Remember the time honored exercise in trust? Falling backwards into the arms of a partner.  There is that moment of doubt. The mind begins to focus on this. Thoughts swirl the fears and uncertainties; adding discomfort, distrust and disbelief.

But when you stop yourself, listen to your internal guidance and trust…

You relax and are safe.

There may be bumps and challenges but you are on your heart guided path.

Listen to the feelings of rightness, warmth and joy that lead to the correct path, and listen to the feelings of tightness that tell you a path is wrong for you.  Feel and follow these internal nudges.

Your heart will take you to opportunities and synchronicities that lead you to higher and higher potential.  The right people, opportunities and supports will appear.

Allow yourself to relax back and fall.  Allow yourself to follow your heart.

“It is our responsibility on this earth to bloom with full potential.  Any reassurance and guidance towards your goals pushes you further by providing an extra motivation. Laurie has provided that extra confirmation too, as a sign of nature, to go ahead and live my life to the fullest, doing what I am supposed to do and being what I am.” ~ Peaceful regards  Dr. Indu Arora

It is said that your 6^th sense, or your intuition is 100% accurate all the time.  They say that because it is an extension of your higher self or God.

Believe that the greatest gift  you have been given, the greatest skill you can ever develop is the unwavering decision to commit  your  full energy to unearthing your  true self and allowing your heart to prevail and pervade through every part of your  life.

Use this affirmation:

“I follow my heart, trusting the messages I receive from God and my Higher Self.”

Embracing Transformative Times

 This is a time of change for so many.  Whether it be a change in career, relationships, or a deeper desire to contribute to something bigger; many are feeling a need for physical, emotional and/or spiritual movement.

 Have you ever wished that someone would hand you a map and directions on how you can find and fulfill your deeper purpose in your life?  Are you looking for a sense of clarity, more meaning, and alignment with your greater calling?

You are a significant piece of the universal puzzle.

 Perhaps you long to find how you best fit into this puzzle.  You feel you’re in the right vicinity, but have a desire to find that one space where everything neatly and easily clicks in.  You know, in your heart, that once you find that space the whole picture will come together; make sense, you’ll feel empowered and confident again, you will feel . . . complete.  Until then, you move through the big picture, managing all that is on your plate along the way – waiting, hoping and longing for something more.

 Edgar Cayce, the modern-day sleeping prophet, said: Each soul enters the earth to fill a role that no other soul could fill so well.  When an opportunity occurs for a soul to enter the earth (a pregnancy) the ideal soul is selected to come into the specific situation.

 Often we feel lost in the crowd, insignificant in the big scheme of things.  Yet what Cayce is saying is, you are so important.  You are that one piece of the whole puzzle that no one else could fill!  Without you filling your role, the picture is incomplete, the right connections are not made, and there is emptiness where your light is most needed.

 As you move toward your deeper purpose, it’s important not to resist or fear change.  Embrace transformation by attuning your heart and mind with the energies of change so you can advance out of limitation and into the unwavering, expansive, all-knowing being that you are.  Learn to move with the energies of transformation and you will find that all the answers are right before you.  Open up to the currents of change, align with your divine destiny, and experience the balance and harmony of being part of the complete picture.

 Laurie Polinski, is a results-oriented intuitive guide and life purpose coach who helps people see greater possibilities and break through hidden barriers so you can quickly and gracefully reach your highest potentials in your life, relationships and career.

What Is Your Highest Potential? 

  Your highest potential is when there is no limit to what you can have, do or be.  You are fully connected to the center of our soul.  You know your purpose and you feel joy, satisfaction and freedom every day.

  You have within yourself, the potentiality to create whatever you desire.  The problem is that most people are so disconnected from the center of their soul that they don’t even know what they truly desire.

  Who are you when you are still, quiet, and fully connected to the center of your soul?  This is where your truth and your power live.  This is the seed for your highest potential to arise from.  When you peal back all of the “masks” that you have created for yourself, what, or who, lies beneath?

  I spent 40 years of my life creating new masks for myself.  Masks that would allow me to “fit” into each new life’s experience as it came my way.  With each new experience I needed to figure out what would be expected of me, how did I need to show up in order to be accepted and fit in?  Who did they want or need me to be?

  It certainly is no wonder that I felt so disconnected from my own truth and the center of my soul.   And it certainly is no wonder that I had lost my power.  No, wait, I hadn’t lost it ….. I just didn’t know how to access it.

  This is the feeling of being stuck.  You know that there is something more for you to experience, or express, but you just don’t know what that is.  Like me, you may have felt frustrated, dissatisfied for no apparent reason, restless, struggling to find more meaning and satisfaction in your daily life.  

  So, when you are in this stuck place, how can you begin to go deeper beyond the masks that you may not even realize you’ve placed upon yourself?  Use this simple exercise to help you begin to connect with what lies in the center of your soul and lead you to experience your highest potential:

  Begin your day by taking some time to image what your life would look like, and feel like, if you were living it at your highest potential.  You may even ask your higher self for guidance about what you are to do, and allow it to take you there.  Allow yourself enough time to see and sense all of the rich details that lie along your true life’s path. 

  Once you connect with your truth and purpose, your power naturally shows up, like the clouds parting for the bright, strong, warm power of the sun to shine through. It is natural, it feels good, and it is right.  Suddenly, everything is right.  Then the flow happens.  Doors open, opportunities arise and other powerful, helping people appear in your life that you could have never dreamed of for yourself in the past.  It is then that you are in alignment with your highest potential to reveal itself to you over and over again.  And you will be amazed at what begins to quickly and effortlessly show up for you.
