Hi Jenna

I completely understand where you are coming from. Sounds like me a few months ago actually.

I had so many ideas that I would jump from one to the other and back all the time. Drove me nuts really lol. Then at the end of the day I would feel like I hadn't done anything.

I have been more focused in the last 4weeks then I think I have ever been in my life. My reason was that I knew exactly what I wanted at the end. For me, balance and harmony are my lifes purpose. So I sat down and designed my life according to this purpose.

Once i figured out I wanted to spend 70% of my time with my family and only 30% of it working I am now attracting ways to do this. Same with my financial goals, once I stipulated how much I wanted to earn a year to live the life I wanted for myself and my family, I have attracted people and resources into my life that will bring this about.

The key for me was to be a little more specific. For me, if im not specific about what I ask for from the universe, I got a whole lot of stuff that I cant work out and I end up frustrated.

I use a number of tools, which I had never heard about before, to help me organize some of my thoughts and Ideas. One great tool is a mindmap, if you are unsure about how this works heres a site that offers free mindmaps and even has a tutorial. www.mindomo.com

Any ideas or thought I get during the day I write down, then at the end of the day I add them to my mind map. Once a week I sit down at my desk and look through my mind map. I get rid of ideas that I know I wont do because they don't fit my purpose, or I may know someone that could use the idea I came up with.

Id also suggest you chunk down your ideas and goals. Look at the goal as a whole, then break it down into steps.

Please feel free to contact me if any of the info is of any use to you or if you have any questions. I still experiment with some ideas, put them into practice and see if they work, if not move on, if they do great, keep doing those ones more.

Sorry, long post I know, I am just so passionate about helping people move into their ideal life lol

All the best Jenna

lol Jilly

Dont worry, it took me a couple of weeks before I could even look at the site after it was suggested to me.

I did try it on paper as well, and goodness was it a mess, I almost ended up with a map that could show every road in Australia.

My only turning point, my 3yr old liked my maps so much he wanted to help draw them up, so I decided a online one would mean I would be able to hide it from little fingers without forgetting where I put it, hehehe.

Anyway, back to my mindmap, I have a days work to schedule and no idea where to start
Cheers
Aeroney

Does it ever...I thought that was Christmas bells or the door bell. . . LOL I have a wonderful project brewing and it is taking my attention away from my hum drum daily routine. As the project grows it is taking more and more of my time. I know that the time invested will be for the good and I have to push forward to see it manifest. Another wards, it can't go anywhere without me. I must say that I have been a bit more organized lately, which has helped immensely. I just hold firm that since the Universe is delivering, it will also deliver the time I need to give it my attention. When I feel overwhelmed I slow down and step back, sometimes this means that the wrong road is about to be taken. I double check myself and re-evaluate my decision. Most often I was moving to fast and a misstake was about to happen. I too have lot of thoughts that are limps to the main idea that I'm working on. I have had to hold myself back. I just write the idea down for later consideration. Whew! did I just say all that. Love and much success to you...JILLY
Aeroney has an interesting idea, Im going to check out this mindmap thingy and will comment on it soon.

I agree with Aeroney on the fact that you have to be specific when you ask for something and send it into the universe. I have noticed that a lot too. if i am not specific it sends me things that are along the lines of what i want but get e a confused. So that is very good advice that i think everyone can benifit from....
