Are you feeling like life is a bit too busy? I know I feel that way sometimes. It seems like there is a never-ending barrage of options and things to do. It can be easy to get caught up in the day-to-day and let the things that matter most slip by.

That is one reason I spoke about creating harmony in your life at the recent Empower Women's Conference. The theme, "Balance and Boundaries" resonated with the almost 200 women in attendance.

So often, when we feel off-balance, it is because we are actually out of alignment with who we are and what matters most to us.

Well, first we have to be clear about what we really want and desire in our lives. We have to know what matters most to us.

Here are the four foundational questions to ask yourself in order to have a solid basis, an internal GPS, for your life.

These are the principles you stand by, the things that matter most to you. Yours might be compassion, pleasure, authenticity or influence, courage or belonging. For me, my top five are family, love, freedom, creativity and spirituality.

When it comes down to it, this is vital as all the things we think we want are really about the feeling we think it will provide. Advertisers know this and direct their advertising towards satisfying our core desires so we think their product is what will provide the feeling but in reality, the feeling must arise from within you. Perhaps you desire to feel cheerful, fulfilled, grateful, or bold. My core desires are: peaceful, fulfilled, joyous, open-hearted and passionate.

3) What are your passions? What are the things you love to be/do/have? What are those activities that when you do them, you lose track of time? You feel "in the zone"?

Do you love being in nature? Gardening? Pickleball? Painting? Singing? Being with your children, playing game, laughing? Volunteering?

For me, it is being with my family, being at the beach, reading a great novel, laughing with friends and empowering people to love themselves and their lives through my coaching, speaking and workshops.

This can seem inundating to think about but really, it is a culmination of the first three questions along with your gifts. To me, it is like an umbrella statement that serves as the guiding light for your life.

To inspire and empower people to live their dreams using my love and intuition in order to create a happier, more harmonious world.

By answering these four questions, you will gain clarity and the confidence to make choices based on what matters most to you. When you have your internal GPS set to where you want to go, it is easier to plan for success on your terms.

Want to go a bit deeper into these questions?

Join Ignite Your Inner Spark: A 5-day journey to discover what moves you here.

And, as I told the women at the conference, be sure to schedule what matters first and keep those appointments as you would a doctor appointment. The only way to advance in the direction of your dreams is to know what they are and to plan the action you will take to create the life you love!

You've got this! And if you need extra encouragement or accountibility, I've got you!
