Tips for winning your lottery.

What would you do if you won the lottery? 🙋🏻‍♀️

 

 

I mean… who doesn’t!?

 

 

It’s fun to dream, to imagine how your life might be different.

 

 

Or maybe not so different.

 

 

It frees you up though to think outside the box.

 

 

Ask yourself: 

If there were no “supposed” monetary restrictions, what then?

 

 

 

→ What would happen?

 

→ What would you do?

 

 

 

The first thoughts are usually to the material objects, right? The clothes, the cars, the houses….

 

 

The things.

 

 

But really fun things! 😁

 

 

There is this tendency to think that if I suddenly won the lottery all of my problems would be solved.

 

 

There is a lot of science behind why actually having that much money won’t make us happier, in fact it’s likely to decrease it.

 

 

 

Wah Wuh.

 

 

I apologize for ruining the game right out of the gate, but hear me out.  😂

 

 

If we know that we won’t be happier when we win the lottery (or at least not beyond the spending spree 😉), putting the material stuff aside…

 

 

Then ask yourself next:

 

 

→ How would you feel?

 

 

How would you feel after winning the lottery?

 

 

Free? Happy? Light?

 

 

Whatever comes to you, write that word(s) down.

 

 

And now, ask yourself:

 

 

What is it about your current situation you are grateful for?

 

 

What is working? What do you LOVE? What do you want to amplify? What do you want to bring out? 

 

 

You now have a map for yourself.  This is valuable info.

 

 

→ How can you bring that word you discovered from the feeling question and all that you want to amplify into your every day?

 

 

What would that look like?

 

 

Get specific.

 

 

For instance, if you wrote “freedom” down as your word, how can you tap into that daily?

 

How can you incorporate it, infuse it into everything you do?

 

By carving out more free time for yourself?

 

By allowing yourself to be more daring and bold in your work?

 

 

And for the aspects you want to bring out and amplify, what that might look like? 

 

 

For instance, I want to amplify Joy. 

 

 

What brings you joy? How can you incorporate those activities into your life more? 

 

 

What doesn’t bring you joy? How can you let go or lessen those things?

 

 

 

The things you think you need in order to be happy might be right under your nose.

 

 

I can’t help but think about the story of the fisherman. 

 

⬇️

 

 

 

A fisherman was enjoying a beautiful day on the beach, he had his fishing pole propped up in the sand with the line cast out into the ocean.

 

He was enjoying the warmth of the afternoon sun and the prospect of catching a fish.

 

 

About that time, a businessman came walking down the beach, and he noticed the fisherman and decided to find out why this fisherman was fishing instead of working harder to make a living for himself and his family. 

 

 

“You aren’t going to catch many fish that way,” said the businessman to the fisherman.

 

“You should be working rather than lying on the beach!”

 

 

The fisherman looked up at the businessman and replied, “And what will my reward be?”

 

 

“Well, you can get bigger nets and catch more fish!” was the businessman’s answer. 

 

 

“And then what will my reward be?” Asked the fisherman, still smiling. 

 

 

The businessman replied, “You will make money and you’ll be able to buy a boat, which will then result in larger catches of fish!”

 

 

“And then what will my reward be?” Asked the fisherman again.

 

 

The businessman was beginning to get a little irritated with the fisherman’s questions. “You can buy a bigger boat, and hire some people to work for you!” he said.

 

 

“And then what will my reward be?” repeated the fisherman.

 

 

The businessman was getting angry. “Don’t you understand? You can build up a fleet of fishing boats, sail all over the world, and let all your employees catch fish for you!”

 

 

Once again the fisherman asked, “And then what will my reward be?”

 

 

The businessman was red with rage and shouted at the fisherman, “Don’t you understand that you can become so rich that you will never have to work for your living again! You can spend all the rest of your days sitting on this beach, looking at the sunset. You won’t have a care in the world!”

 

 

The fisherman, still smiling, looked up and said, “And what do you think I’m doing right now?”

How can you find times to be like the fisherman this year?
