Here are this week’s sparkles of enthusiasm and inspiration. Let me know what you think via twitter at @jamiesmartcom, on my Facebook page here, or in the comments below.
1. A quotation I’m appreciating this week
I did a Facebook Live broadcast in the Exponential Practice Professional Group last night looking at the whole domain of beliefs / grounding around money, wealth and abundance. I shared this quote from Lynne Twist. Lynne worked as Chief Fundraising Officer for The Hunger Project, and raised over 200 million dollars in the process. She’s spent time with some of the wealthiest people on the planet, and some of the poorest. Here’s what she said:
“When you let go of trying to get more of what you don’t really need, it frees up oceans of energy to make a difference with what you have.
When you make a difference with what you have, it expands.”
2. A delivery that made me smile like a cheshire cat
I’ve taken delivery of the first copy of my new book, RESULTS: Think Less, Achieve More. A few days ago, I took a few minutes to pause and reflect…
– on the twists, turns, labours and love that have led to this book being in my hands
– on the finished product
– on the people who are going to be impacted
– on the doors that are going to be opened
– on the road ahead
I feel so very grateful for all the love and support that you and the rest of my community give to me. I deeply appreciate the kind words of all the colleagues, mentors and clients who have written endorsements for the book. I’m delighted with how it’s turned out and really excited about the big launch in a few weeks’ time. If you’d like to get advance access and read the first two chapters right now, you can download them free from www.JamieSmart.com/instantresults
3. A group I love being part of
Three months ago, I launched The Exponential Practice Professional Group, a Facebook group for Transformation Professionals (coaches, therapists, consultants, nutritionists etc) who want to grow their practice exponentially. The response has been incredible and we’re about to hit 1,000 members! I do Facebook live broadcasts there each week on the key elements of growing your practice, and the level of interaction and support is really inspiring. If you’re a transformation professional and you want to grow your practice exponentially, in ways that feel great and deliver real results, then you could be a good fit for our friendly, supportive and inspiring community. You can join for free at https://www.jamiesmart.com/exponential-practice/
4. One of my favourite films
On Sunday, I took my daughters to the cinema to see one of the most beautiful films ever: the wonderful Cinema Paradiso. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=stLekU5BnbI We loved it. If you haven’t seen it, you’ve got a chance to catch it on its current cinema re-release. If you have seen it, go see it again. It’s as amazing as ever (I’m tearing up just watching the trailer!)
5. This week’s 3 minute miracle
I was interviewing Clarity Coach Donna Churchman this week and she said that this is her walk-on music when she speaks at events: Just by Radiohead. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-_qMagfZtv8 Radiohead are awesome. That is all.
That’s it for this week. Enjoy!
Big love
Jamie
PS: RESULTS has been chosen by WH Smiths as their “Deal of the week” from 10th November. This means you’ll be able to get it half-price that week in all their travel shops (the ones in railway stations, airports, hospitals, motorway services etc). Then from 18th November, we’re going to be doing a big Amazon launch, with bonus gifts and lots more. If you want to be kept informed and make sure you don’t miss any of the big stuff, get on the advance list (and get your free chapters) at www.JamieSmart.com/instantresults
